hi, why is this wrong? the answer should be ln(4)
Instead use substitution to solve this equation
and substitute
Oops
oh I had done it with substitution and got 4, I was just confused as to why the other method didnt work
this is true ! I got confused
thank you:)

If $x= \alpha$ intersects $xy^2=(x+y)^2$ orthogonally, find $\alpha$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
So I started by raising both sides to the power half, to obtain
$\sqrt{x}=\frac{x}{y}+1$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
On differentiating both sides
$\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}=\frac{\left(y-\frac{xdyx}{dx}\right)}{y^2}$
or
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{y}{x}-\frac{y^2}{x^{\frac{3}{2}}}$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
I also found $y$ when $x= \alpha$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
which is
$y=\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{\alpha}-1}$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
find where derivative is 0
that would still require implict differentiation, no?
why 0?
I have to find the point at which $x= \alpha$ is orthogonal
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
if you bring y^2 to the other side then you can facotr it out
then you can devide by x-1
then square root both sides
eh but then there is a square root so to be safe maybe we should stick with implicit differenciation
dydx needs to be 0
why though
That would mean it's an inflection point
oo
got it
yeah, makes sense
so 2x=y , when dy/dx=0
you'll have some system of equations i think
so look at all x,y that works for 2x+2y-y^2=0 and the original equation
xy^2=(x+y)^2
expand right
x2+2xy+y^2
wait ill do it out seperatley and show you steps
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
so $2\alpha= \frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{\alpha}-1}$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
yeah
yes**

@loud osprey Has your question been resolved?
Express as summation
let me figure out this syntax stuff
$\sum{i=1}{5}$
thats wrong
hmm
as a summation i got
1/5 sum (k = 1) -> 5 (ln(2 + k/5))
yea yea
what should i do next
okay Its starting to come back to me
this is the approximation
and we basically have n right now being 5
so b = 5 ?
theres no b-a/m tho
this should be all the information needed to solve this but im rusty
I don't know how to get the bounds of integration
x_(n+1) = b might help
Maybe 1/5 is our delta x
sum (k = 1) -> 5 { (ln(2 + k/5)) * 1/5 }
do you agree x_1 = ln(2+1/5)
what does x_1 mean?
the function with k = 1
oh yes
i think we might be able to connect there
becuase x_i = a + (i-1)deltaX
x_1 = a + (1-1)deltaX
ln (2+1/5) = a
but that doesnt work
damn
would it be wrong to use the answer choices and see if they can be expressed as the sum? or do you think thats the wrong order of thinking?
i mean
that kinda defeats the purpose
cause im practicing this for the ap exam
so i wanna like learn to do it
yfm
how
can u explain it pls
oh is it cause a = 2 and ln( 2 + k/n)
waht would i upper bound be tho
im getting b as 6 so im still doing something wrong as well
oh i made a type
i got b as 3
how?
wait whys it 1/5 = b-2/5
oh
so the function should just be lnx
ye
btw whered u get this reference
2/9
now we need to think of the summation happening
yea but I would think of the 2/9 inside the summation just bc it helps see the riemann summ defintion a bit better, but yea thats what i did
ok so change in x is 2/9
and a = 4
and the function is 1/x
wait how do i find the function?
if a = 4 b would be 6 and thats not an option
i would want to add the 1 and 3
the problem is that a cannot be 4 because that isnt a choice
like
this is what I got
oh so is the + 1 part just part of the normal function
i assumed that
Wait actually how do i get 9 on top for this summation
i just assumed it was 9 cause 2/9
I see two ways of looking at it
the first is thinking of the summantion, 2, 4, 6, ... 18. is 2n, 9 times.
yeah
I don't know if you can always assume that the denominator of deltaX is always going to be n.
But for every sitution we have seen so far its been yes.
can you find an example where that isnt the case? maybe look for a problem with an ambigous delta X
for delta X?
Kinda
my immediate thought is deltaX is 1/100 and n is 100
but its still 1 -> 100
yeah
i think it might be denominator based
cause maybe that represents how many blocks u rectagnesl use?
well the whole reason for using deltaX = (b-a)/n is to get uniform widths
bc its literally the distance divided by the amount of blocks
so yea
what did you get for this one
Gimme a sec
im pretty confident on my answer
same

Hello! Pls help me how to prove this statement: From the outlying pentagon, an inner one is reduced by ϕ^2, and finally the inmost pentagon is reduced by ϕ^4 as compared to the outer one.
Also, if possible, can u please provide another method to verify your answers/explanation? thank you !
I absolutely have no idea abt this but if side lengths are needed, let's assume that the side lengths are 1 (outer pentagon)
find this angle
that angle is 36 degrees
yes
Yeah easy one
now what about the angles adjacent to uit
Each pentagon angle is 144
no
wont that be 108?
well each angle of a regular pentagon is equal to 108 degrees
Yeah 108
this angle?
Whats the problem then ?
still 36 i think
108 - 36 /2
oh mb
now are you aware of the sine rule?
wait, the question talks about area or the sides?
honestly, I'm not sure what it's talking about either. But here's the source of where I got it: http://www.hypermaths.org/cropcircles/chapter5/
Hypermaths.org
Crop Circle Geometry, Mathematics and Ancient Knowledge
I can't make much of it eithwe
probably it asks to prove that side of inner pentagon/ side of outer pentagon is phi^2
anyways, let's solve for the side
alralrr
using sine rule
assuming BC to be 'x'
can you calculate the length AB using this

What is Sih?
And in case you are referring to Sin, I think you are wrong.
I may have figured out what it's talking about. It might be referring to the diagonals of the pentagon (which is the pentagram) since we can find the golden ratio there. See that long red line in the first figure? Dividing that line to any of the equal sides of the pentagon will result to the golden ratio (1.618...)
Now what I'm trying to figure out is what will be its value now as the iteration of pentagons continues, considering that the outermost pentagon contains a proportion of 1.618. But let's try figuring out the first inner pentagon tho. I do have some conjectures in mind, can anyone help me try to verify/confirm them? I'm not really sure how to. I have lotta doubts abt my answers lol so please 🥺 🫶
2.618 is 1.618 squared
here're the figs
Although you don't see a spiral, the math behind the fibonacci spiral (phi) is contained inside of a pentagram. We look at a couple places in nature I've seen a pentagram and use a compass to construct it. We then look at the two places where Phi is contained as a ratio in the shape.
I have also discovered suspiciously interesting shi on my own that might have sum connection to this
there's a counterexample for this though. The result will be different if the side lengths are not an integer
plz help this pitiful lil math idiot here 🥺🥺💟💗
yes this is correct
this doesnt make any sense
,align\frac1{\sin108}&=\frac{AB}{\sin36}
\\frac1{\sin108}\cdot\sin36&=\frac{AB}{\sin36}\cdot\sin36
\\frac{\sin36}{\sin108}&=AB
mtt
this is what it looks like to correctly multiply and simplify fractions
compare that to what youre doing and figure out what you did wrong
"from the outlying pentagon, an inner one is reduced by ϕ²" means "the middle pentagon's sides are ϕ² times smaller than the outermost pentagon"
usually when people talk about resizing or reducing, they are talking about "similar shapes"
if you dont know that "similar" has a specific math-related meaning you should google "similar triangles" and learn what they are
when working with similar shapes, "reduced by #" means "the sides are # times smaller" and also means "the sides are 1/# times the original"
so "from the outlying pentagon, an inner one is reduced by ϕ²" means "the middle pentagon's sides are ϕ² times smaller than the outermost pentagon"
in other words, "if the outermost pentagon has sides 1, then the middle pentagon has sides 1/ϕ²"
in other words, "if the outermost pentagon has sides ϕ², then the middle pentagon has sides 1"
similarly "the innermost pentagon is reduced by ϕ⁴ as compared to the outer one" means "the innermost pentagon's sides are ϕ⁴ times smaller than the outermost pentagon"
by leaving similar shapes are, whatever youre saying here to "figure out what its talking about" is off track, do not be distracted by other features of the pentagon when reading the english
same with this
and this
with the english out of the way, you shouldnt be attempting to brainstorm further methods or ideas if you dont know how to prove the easier, original statement of figuring out that the middle pentagon has sides 1/ϕ² given the outer pentagon has sides 1
leave that for next time, not this time
this doesnt help at all
proportions and "this side is X times smaller than this other side" only consider how relatively larger/smaller the sides are, not how big the sides currently are
what youre seeing right now is "ϕ/ϕ² = 1/ϕ = ϕ - 1" and has nothing to do with the problem
ruler-and-compass constructions will not help you here
this video is walking you through how to draw a pentagon given that you can only draw circles and straight lines
youre not doing that, youre figuring out the side of the middle pentagon given the side of the outer pentagon
ruler-and-compass constructions are notoriously difficult to convert into side lengths and angles
again youre venturing into unfamiliar territory here
again this is pretty interesting but the way youre describing it is dead wrong
now with all of those distractions out of the way, we can focus on actually solving the problem
youve figured out so far that AB = sin(36°) / sin(108°)
now since sin(108°) = sin(72°), that means AB = sin(36°) / sin(72°)
theres an argument to make that uses the figures, similar triangles, and the unit circle to figure out that AB = φ⁻¹
its a bit involved, so for now youll have to take it as a given
you can then use sine rule on this triangle to figure out the side of the middle pentagon
you know both long sides are φ⁻¹
use this to figure out a way to calculate the middle side of the pentagon
you should get a number that matches up with φ⁻²
with that down, youll prove how an iteration (going from outermost to middle) shrinks the pentagon down to φ⁻² size,
outermost to innermost = outermost to middle to innermost = two iterations = shrinking twice = φ⁻² * φ⁻² = φ⁻⁴ size
so going from outermost to innermost is φ⁻⁴ just from doing two iterations of shrinking by φ⁻²
right now this is what youre focusing on
once you figure out this step, the problem is finished - then I show how to do your figure way properly
Mbmb. Honestly, I wasn’t in the best state of mind when I tried to solve the trigo problem. During that day, we were preparing for a presentation tmr, which has smth to do w/this. And yeah it was rlly stressful for me that it felt like my frontal lobe had a power outage. Given that there would also be a panel of judges and the fact that cooperation was the main area where my group fell short, it added more insult to the injury. Wish I could remove their names from the project 👊
yeahh anyway
ohhh so the x is out??
alrr that would be 0.61803398….
thank u mannn I owe u sm 🙏😭😭 I'll give u a shoutout in our study's appendices LOLLLL

??? Need anything ?
you can find the green pentagon's sidelength over the big pentagon's side length
use ptolemys and similar triangles
ghost ping?

what is derivative of f(x,y)=(x^5+y^5)^1/5 in the (x,y)=(0,0)?
@trail otter Has your question been resolved?
do you know how to take the partial derivatives
and does it want the gradient
or magnitude
well first i derive it with respect to x?
that is x^4/(x^5+y^5)^4/5
and now i plug in (0,y)? @foggy acorn
you think like y is constant and then do it respect to x
lemme check it.
yes i did it like this
yes
and now?
yes itl be the same with y in numerator
yep
but i need to do it in point (0,0)
what does it originally asks for
find partial derivatives at the origin for f(x,y)=(x^5+y^5)^1/5
im so confused why it is 0/0

can somebody explain to me why the ratio of s to a is equal to the ratio of x to h here? I know it says because they are “similar triangles,” but I don’t see how that applies to this example?
Do you see how the triangle with base s and height x is similar to the triangle with base a and height h?
descend a line perpendicularly from the top of the prism to its base
Because it's in the middle, will divide into two equal parts
if one side of the square is s
will divide into s/2 and s/2
what you draw from the top of the prism to its base is the height
which is x
and if you pay attention here, a right triangle was formed with lengths s/2, x, and √(x²+s²/4)
If we make a tangent ratio
(s/2)/x is the tangent of that angle
When you draw another prism whose vertex starts from the same place
so like in the figure
.
The height you draw towards the base of the larger prism and the height you draw towards the base of the smaller prism overlap each other
so the angle whose tangent we take does not actually change
if we say "a" angle to it, it is still "a" angle because nothing changed in angular
so if i do the tangent ratio for the larger triangle it would be the same?
Therefore this ratio is, half of one side of the newly formed square/new height
which is (a/2)/h
so we showed that (s/2)/x = (a/2)/h
sorry
i fixed it
ok because the angles stay the same we are just scaling it kinda
and then s/x = a/h
and then s/a = x/h
well what is the side length for one of the cross sections is 2 and the side length of the base was 4
then how would those ratios be the same?
oh wait this is just talking about for the triangle
not the cross sections
yes
you are welcome

so we'd get
$\frac {100 \cos {\psi} \pm \sqrt {10000\cos^2 {\psi} - 4(- v_s ^ 2 + 2500)}}{2}$
bruh ok hold on
yea i put that into quadratic formula form
$50 \cos {\psi} \pm 10\sqrt {25\cos^2 {\psi} + 551}$
is there any way to simplify after this @cobalt tapir

There are two concentric spheres, the inner sphere has radius r = 10 cm and a charge on its
surface of −1 µC, and the outer sphere has a radius of 20 cm and a charge on its surface of +2
µC.
(a) What is the potential at r = 0 cm?
would the potential at 0cm be 0 because the electric field would be 0?
electric field being 0 means the potential is constant, not necessarily that it's 0
that is the potential caused by the electric field of a sphere, outside that sphere

what
@neon salmon Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> pretty please
if you know that the potential just outside a spherical shell is given by kQ/r, and that the potential is constant inside the shell, then the potential inside the shell must be equal to the potential at the surface
you can also use the superposition principle: the potential at some point is the sum of the potentials due to each object on its own

How do I do this?
for some integer x, abs(-x)=x and abs(x) = x
all of the options are positive, there are also no options that will give a negative x value
The best way is to find the function for each interval
For X>3 every modulus will just vanish
that would be too long
Are you allowed to simply do some brute force method of doing x = 1, x = 2, x = 3, and so forth to see which x gives you the smallest value?
nopee
thats the point
can't lose time
😅
i found a solution
but can't seem to understand it
@balmy sky Okay, are you taking calculus?
yes
Still has to define the function
So what's the derivative |x| assuming x is positive?
1
1 or -1
not defined at 0
(sorry i asked the wrong question... i was thinking of derivatives for some reason)
See, for X>3 it'll be 4x
3>X>0 it'll be 2x+6
-1>X>0 is 6
And do like this
i know that
There is no other way as far as ik
but that would take time
there is another way
if you guys could explain it
it would be helpful

i know this method
So what didn't u understand in his method
He's telling mean deviation is minimum abt median
And he found median
But idk how mean deviation will give minimum value
yea exactly
Hmm try asking your teacher
don't have any teacher

I tried solving this by first separating log(81)
then applied properties and had 6log(2)/6log(16)
change of base, then 6 log16(2) equals to 1/4
multiplied by 6, 6/4, 3/2
3/2 x 4 log(3), and then 6 log(3)
I dont know where is my mistake
I think it is log(3)?
why is that?
there's an extra 6 here
ahh thats true
I was focused on properly changing the base and forgot to divide
is it log(3) then?
yes

Quick question. Would it be enuf to say that |f(n+1)-f(n)|<=(1/2^n)*|f(1)-1| is cauchy without further statement?
Oh and of course f(1) is defined and finite
And f is a differentiable function on R to R. The sequence is a(n)=f(a(n-1))

How is this function odd pleaseses
what makes a function odd?
@sturdy acorn Has your question been resolved?
Hmm you seem to have applied the function wrong
Notice that
$f(-x) = \frac{1-\cos(-x)}{-x}$
Ultimate Chad
And because $\cos(-x) = \cos(x)$, do you see how that function becomes odd?
Ultimate Chad
well f(-x) = 1+cos(x)/-x , and -f(x) = cos(x)+1/-x are they same?
**-f(x) = cosx-1/-x ?
you can think of it like cos(x) / x
which is even / odd
= odd
or just plug in -x
@sturdy acorn Has your question been resolved?
i was going by definition which says f(-x) = -f(x)
but -f(x) != f(-x) ?
thats the formal sol
so wouldnit it be neither odd nor even
how tho
it is
f(x) = -f(-x)
sorry for my bad writing.
left is f(x)
right is f(-x)
its jut f(-x) (right one)
is -f(x) not = - (1-cosx/x) = -1+cosx/-x
how?
so -1-cosx/-x
thats not same still
like we distribute negative right
f(x) = 2x
f(-x) = 2(-x) = -2x
-f(x) = -(2x) = -2x
now thats odd i get it
this is where you make the mistake
i just dont understant why we dont distribute the negative over the function
is numerator as a whole a trig function

are they correct?
I think first one should be opposite
the second one is incorrect idk about the first one
- The inverse of fog should be g^{-1}of^{-1} ("should" as in "if exists, is")
- The second equality is true if and only if the domain and codomain of f are the same

Im in 12th grade, out of 350 students i placed 5th in my year what is the probability of me getting a grade that offers all colleges if the yearly average of said grade is achieved by top 7% of students?
you're in good shape bro 
I think its a dud bc individual schools can only predetermine how good you do in fractions of the curriculum
as long as your year is not terribly worse than previous students at your school, you should be good
who called helpers?
Not here
k
This is actually a textbook question xd
so what can i help with?
Okay so. This message right here
k alr
Im in 1.42 percentile but how to corelate with 7%
so you are in the top 1.42 percentile
Theres a B section of this question but idek what it wants tbh
what is the yearly average?
Uhhh like 70
k
All your "real" grades are determined by endyear entrance exams
Theyre out of 100
Max is 100
If average was 70 last year and 97.6 went to the best college, it will differ when the average becomes 80 this year
fyi the helpers ping gets called about 80 times a day
Bruh
it will be smth like 98-99 ish right?
Yeah spot on
Maybe i should evaluate average yearly acceptance grades instead of my school grade
id say about 2-3.5% without knowing the yearly average
k
Thanks for the help this question isnt included for the tests i just wanted to know where im at compared to other students

about this problem
do I use this formula?
but am I right sir?
that formula looks like it's got something to do with standard deviation
which isn't really relevant here
or this dormula
i'm not actually sure what alpha is for here
you have all of the scores
you can easily check whether 10% of them scored below 20
(as a side note, visually it looks incredibly obvious that way more than 10% of students scored below 20 lol)
this is similar to this problem right?
Wdym
which of this 2 formulas do I apply on the problem
stats sucks
;((
Probably the first one
Cuz the teacher is saying at most 10%
So it’s proportions
how do I get the value of p hat
Find the sample proportion of students that scored under 20
U have the sample dataset
That’s not what I said lol
Read this
Find the percentage of ppl that scored under 20
I counted 29 students who scored less thn 20
So 29 is the value of p hat?
Is that the percentage of people that scored under 20?
,calc 29/37
Result:
0.78378378378378
so thats the value of the phat?

any ideas ?
consider the right hand limit and left hand limit
both sides are same
no
how to factor
|x| from x^3 - |x| ?
|x^3 -x | = |x| (|x^2 -1 |) |x| gonna cancelout and |x^2-1| as x--> 0 is x^2-1
yes
yes
I think that's right
but why wolfram alpha says -1
let me work it out myself
I think wolfram is wrong
ask helpers to confirm
<@&286206848099549185>
what
0 ?
idk
I'm from Peru and they didn't teach me that, I did it by watching YouTube videos
i only know sumatory and integrals

Can somebody help me
ye
Depends
so i have minecraft project where we dig highways. rn we have highway system that is 50k to each minecraft direction and every new road is 5k apart. how long will the highway be if we did it but in 125k? so every road is apart 5k still.
here is map https://highways2b2t.net/map.html where u can see coordinates of them and photo of the highway system we have
weird question xd but idk how to calculate
ignore the diagonal roads etc

hi, I need help with this question
"Factorise the equasion 8ax²-6axy-5ay²"
I know to take the a out to make it
"a(8x²-6xy-5y²)"
but I don't know how to put it into two brackets with this setup
the markscheme says that this is the answer, but I don't know how to get to it (past paper)
I thought you could only do that with a squred number then x then a normal number
in that format
I figured it out
I just took the y out
and added it at the end

@light crypt
can you post q42
here
what about it
let me bring the question
what do you have to do here
yea just a sec
take your time
i would say a is f(x) b is f'(x) and c is f''(x)
how did u know
but i am not sure
can u pls explain to me
okay
i dont know if its correct
it's okay
derivative is the slope of tangent
yep
find out which function is the derivative of the other
can u explain how to solve q42
but it's hard
look at tangents at each point
okay
idk how do u decide who is f(2)
not f(2) sorry
i mean second derivative
and first derivative
in the first graph what's the slope of the tangent at (0,0)?
For the picture we can immediately say that b is right after c, since we have a slope of 0 on c, which means the derivative graph needs to touch the x axis at that same point
so
it's tilting downwards a bit
what's the arrangement
i don't exactly get what's you're trying to say about b and c
yes
Looks like it goes a -> c -> b
it's tilting both up and down
Look at the slopes at each point on the graph, if one point has a extremely high or low slope, or the slope is zero, you can correlate that to the points position on the next graph
what would it be?
so
it's tilting downards so negative
how can we correlate that to the points on the next graphs
but it's also going upwards
when limit is at x negative = 0
look at it left to right
not -x
okay
the tangent line is like y = -x
so if suppose the first one was f then f'(0) < 0
or it could be f' then f''(0) < 0
the only graph such that g(0) < 0 is the last one
so we can guess the last one is the derivative of the first one
so the last one is the original function ?
no it's a derivative
so f' or f''
still need to check
let's say it's f'
then first is f, last is f' so middle is f''
can the middle be the derivative of the last?
yeah i think u just need to practice thinking about the slope of tangent
maybe drawing it
that's all the derivative is
I don't exactly get how is the derivative of f at x = 0 is 0
it's not 💀
when u say f
what graph u thinking
A
cs u were speaking of A here
why do u think it's 0
I think it's below zero when the limit is on the right side
limit on the right = limit on the left
okay
aafa?
got a problem
np
yea they are
so i dont get which one is the original function
okay.
Okay, ty!
Hi, Cyphercrit, can you please expand on this?
Does it follow that the derivative of graph a is 0 since we're focusing on the tangent line of each graph?
Is that what you are trying to say?
@frail dome Has your question been resolved?
Let’s focus on only one point. at x = 0 on graph a, we have a slope that is decreasing, decreases a little less for a little bit, and then decreases fast again. At x=0 on graph c, we have a negative value, a slightly less negative value, and then a more negative value again
Does that make sense?
That is how slope and values are related with derivatives

i dont get 10 a
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
1
- Collinear: the vectors are scalar multiples of each other
- Perpendicular: the dot product is zero
yea i het that
