dog you're gonna need to provide much more context
?
we can't respond without the otherside of the equation
no ther is no oter side
are you finding the roots?
can you traduce please
traduce
translate*
type as easy as posibele
do you mean 4x^2 - 6
yes
those are different things
thats the answere
4x^2 - 6 is not the same thing as 4^2 - 6
anyway
you have already drawn the lines for the distributive property
i got 4x -6
can you show your work
x * 4x is 4x^2
but what if i turn x to 2x what do i get then

is this correct im getting 0/1 whilst the book got 1/1 :
!showwork
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
is this the book correction? looks pretty bad
this is a book with problems and their solutions, the assistant said there may be mistakes
the limit is indeed 0 i think
the leading term of the numerator is n^(4/3) while the leading term of the denominator is n^(6/4) = n^(3/2)
since 4/3 < 3/2
the denominator wins
limit = 0
isnt it 3/4?
,w ((n^3 - 2n^2 + 1)^(1/4) + (n^4 + 1)^(1/3))/((n^6 + 6n^5 + 2)^(1/4) - (n^7 + 3n^3 + 1)^(1/5)) as n to infinity
ah you meant the second sqr root
so the book is wrong basically
yep
thanks a lot 
- either divide both numerator and denominator by n^4/3, and you'll get something like 1/(n^...)
or
divide both numerator and denominator by n^3/2, and you'll get something like (n^(-...))/1
i divided by n^3/2 since its the biggest
yep that's the second way

I need help with finding the distance from a point to a line using vector operations.
I understand cross products and scalar products well, but I couldn't do it.
When I looked it up on YouTube I found the formula:
d = |a x b| / |a| where a is a vector where (x, y, z) are the coefficients of the x, y, z values of the line, and b is the vector from a point on the line to the point you want to find the shortest distance to.
But I have no idea how they came up with this formula or why it works, any help?
So for instance, if we have the line (x,y,z) = (1,3,4) + t(1, -2, -3) and the point (4, 1, -2)
a would be (1, -2, -3)
and b would be (4-1, 1-3, -2-4) = (3, -2, -6)
b is a distance?
both are vectors. I can draw a picture if it helps.
I was just reflecting on what you wrote about b here
Oh you're right, typo.
Well you can always compute orthogonal projection
Is that by using cross products?
Scalar products
But cross products might intervene
Given P the point, line (x,y,z) = Q + tv
Then to find its orthogonal orojection onto the line
You subtract Q to both :
u = P-Q = vector QP
t is a parameter and v is a vector with the coefficients of (x, y, z)?
t is the parameter and v is vector
So
Coming back to this
New line is (x,y,z) = tv
It's a line that goes through the origin
We can compute orthogonal projection :
proj(u) = (u•v)/(v•v) v
Then the distance between P and our original line is exactly ||proj(u)||
Which is |u•v|/||v||
what does double | mean?
|.| is for absolute value, which we make sure to not mistake with the norm of a vector ||.||
Yeah, |.| I know is the absolute value, what is the norm of a vector?
@obsidian oracle I found a great visual explanation. |a x b| is the area of the parallelogram, so the height which would be the shortest distance is just area / width and the width is the a vector I mentioned earlier.
Thanks for your help!

would this be considered a positive solution? because i have the answer key for this and there are 2 answers, 1/16 and the one above, how do i know which 1 to put and would both be necessary?
64^(-2/3) = 1/16, it is the same answer but simplified
ok thanks also where would i go from here to solve for x

regarding 2nd order linear equations (application of)
anticipates the most sophisticated question in the history of mathematics
Suppose a spring has a mass m and spring constant k and let w=sqrt(k/m). Suppose that the damping constant is so small that the damping force is negligible. If an external force F(t)=[Fnaught]cos(wnaught)t is applied, where wnaught =/= w, use the method of undetermined coefficients to show that the motion of the mass is described by x=(csub1)coswt+(csub2)coswt+([Fnaught]/[m(w^2-wnaught^2)]coswnaughtt
well it's confusing to me, so maybe it is
i've gotten the back half of the equation ([Fnaught]/[m(w^2-wnaught^2)]coswnaughtt
by solving for a particular solution
but when i try to solve for the front half (csub1)coswt+(csub2)coswt
by solving for the complementary solution, I end up with exponentials instead of cos/sin
What in the name of all that's holy is a "coswnaughtt"?
lol
$\cos \omega_0t$
otheol
any insights?
Hold on, I gotta decipher your question
sure
Can i put this into TeX
"a spring has a mass m", does the spring have a mass or is there a mass attached to the spring?
remember that euler's formula says the exponential of a complex number results in a combination of sines & cosines
the spring doesn't have mass
its attatched
o wait u right
lemme check that
Suppose a spring has a mass m and spring constant $k$ and let $\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$. Suppose that the damping constant is so small that the damping force is negligible. If an external force $F(t)=F_0\cos(\omega_0t)$ is applied, where $\omega_0\neq\omega$, use the method of undetermined coefficients to show that the motion of the mass is described by $x=C_1\cos\omega t+C_2\cos\omega t+\frac{F_0}{m(\omega^2-\omega_0^2)}\cos\omega_0t$
Dang it
otheol
yea
Here’s my work for the particular solution which gave me a good part
Lol mb
thats dope woah
in general if you have a solution in the form [ x(t) = e^{(\lambda \pm i \mu) t} = {e^{\lambda t}(\cos(\mu t) + i\sin(\mu t)), e^{\lambda t}(\cos(\mu t) - i\sin(\mu t))} ] then by taking linear combinations of those solutions we get the real-valued fundamental solution set [ x(t) = { e^{\lambda t}\cos(\mu t), e^{\lambda t}\sin(\mu t)} ]
cloud
well that looks pretty damn close to what i need
but why am i missing a t in the complementary
your complimentary solution assumed the form $e^{rt}$ but you only wrote $e^{r}$
o im stupid

i think its a b d c but my explanations need bit more understanding
is this transformations?
no dont think so
oh then idk
just derivatives
gl
so you’re saying a is f?
yes
lmao the amnt of questions related to derivates makes me scared to learn them
All are graphs of polynomials
you might want to identify what types of function f is
yeah, polynomial
and use the fact that higher order derivative of polynomial result in degree reduction
a is f b is f' d is f'' c is f'''
check again
no
Take two cases
i.f has a odd degree
ii.f. has a even degree
but how to explain y
what degree is function a?
You could also consider maximums and zeroes
a is indeed 2 degree
its just identifying by looking at the graph
yea idk y he gave X
my prof said sonething abt line being pos
or neg
relating to other lines
is there like a theorem
idk

i am a bit confused on how i should explain this
@smoky goblet Has your question been resolved?
I don't have a great answer but what's the maximum distance the parallel planes can have between them?
@smoky goblet Has your question been resolved?
i guess infinite?
it doesnt really specify
so i guess it just depends on the two parallel cuts
If a sphere has a radius r and I cut at r+1 am I cutting the sphere?
i think so?
The cut will miss. What I'm trying to say is that in order to cut the sphere the parallel planes need to intersect the sphere. So the distance between the planes will be limited by the radius of the sphere.
In 2 dimensions if we have a circle centered at the origin with radius r then a verticle line at x = r + 1 won't intersect the circle, neither will a line at x = r + .0000001. So what's the maximum value of x we can choose for a circle of radius r so the line touches the sphere?
just r?
Yeah, so that's just one cut if we make another cut what's the furthest distance from the first cut we can make?
and it has to be parallel to the first
0?
its easier with a visual. This is a circle with radius 1. The blue line is x = r = 1 so what's the furthest I can place a second line from the first while still touching the circle and being parallel?
oh at -1
Another way to say that is -r so what's the distance between r and -r?
2
What is it in terms of r?
2r?
Yep, so what we've shown is that the maximum distance between 2 parallel cuts is 2r. So any 2 points bound by a circle of radius r will have a distance less than or equal to 2r right? And if we plug 2r in for D in your original question does it look familiar?
would that be the surface area of a sphere? if we plugged 2r in for D
Yeah the only problem is I don't know if that proves that 2(pi)rD is the surface area for anything less than 2r. Just that at the maximum distance of 2r we get the formula for the surface area of a sphere.
wdym less than 2r
like if it was one line at r = 1 and one at r = 0
?
Yeah. I can't think of how to show that for any arbitrarily chosen points 2(pi)rD will give accurate surface area
i understand ur other explanation at least
same though i dont really know if it would work for something if it wasnt at the maximum distance
i thought i would have to prove it using integrals or something but idk

Given a cylinder $(T)$ whose bases $(C)$ and $(C')$ are 2 incircles of 2 opposing sides of a cube. In one of the concave triangles created by $(C)$ and its circumscribing square, there is a rectangle with dimensions $a\times2a$. Calculate the volume of the cylinder in $a$
reading this problem description is interesting
gotta love those concave triangles
yessir
anyway you can solve this by setting up a system of equations (if it makes the process easier for now you can decide to use a = 1)
pythagorean theorem helps here
try enlarging the diagram you have, drawing lines and labels on it, and seeing if anything comes to mind
perhaps this helps?
@versed wave Has your question been resolved?
I'd be more interested in this triangle
@versed wave
hm well
HD = asqrt5
EH = R
DE = Rsqrt2
we dont know the angles, nor the relation between R and a
We know angles
Use a bit of tangent here and there
IDH will have measure arctan1/2
EDH is pi/4
It's all ugly
Alternatively
Take the circle centered at (r,r) with radius r and the line y=2x
Find the appropriate intersection
Let that be a,2a
Or 2a,a
Draw it out, it'll make more sense
Then solve for a or r

"9. Enter the tangent plane to the surface
S : e^x−3ycos(5y − z) + yz = 6. at point A = (3, 1, 5). Find an approximate value for the height z of the point B = (3.06, 0.95, z) ∈ S."
i am not sure how to solve this
@spare grotto Has your question been resolved?
there is a formula for the tangent plane
and for the approximation we need the total differential
the second one maybe
Right
$\Delta z \approx f_x(x_0,y_0) \Delta x + f_y(x_0,y_0) \Delta y$
𝔸dωn𝓲²s
I'm gonna sleep now gl
okay thank you
Probably shouldn't use that one as that's for when you have z = f(x,y)
You basically do
It's implicit the equation
is ∂f/∂x = e^(x-3y)*cos(5y-z)
∂f/∂y= -3e^(x-3y)cos(5y-z) -5e^(x-3y)sin(5y-z)+z
∂f/∂z = e^(x-3y)sin(5y-z)+y
minus?
-sine
Oh no nvm
cancels
good work
do you mean ∇f(3,1,5) = (1,2,5)?
∇f(3,1,5) * ((x,y,z) -(3,1,5)) = 0
Oh right the tangent plane should also be applicable for broad approximations
forget this then
I see what I did wrong
I got z = 4,374
it's a tangent plane after all
,w |5.092 - 4.974|
Wait what
Ohh yeah okay
in comparison to the actual value
how
is this wrong
We have 3(x-3) + 1(y-1) +5(z-5) = 0
If we expand we get 3x - 9 + y -1 + 5z -25 =0
Ohh wait yeah
yeah
Then we get 4,974
hmm
Not minus

Hi can someone explain to me how I would go about solving this? I don’t even know where to start!
First number is -2 (in the numerator)
Write -8 as -1 ×2×2×2
√(abcd)=√a√b√c√d
Do this
wouldnt square root of -8 be better written as sqrt of -1, sqrt of 4 and sqrt of 2?
if im breaking -8 into all square roots?
? @lean otter
<@&286206848099549185>
Yes so what would that be
hi, so the new equation after breaking it down, wouldnt it be:
-2 + i * 2 * sqrt (2) / 2?
Yeah
So you see how there 2 common in both numerator and denominator
So to simply it further you multiply the fraction by 2/2
dumb question but since square root of 8 is equal to
2 * i * sqrt(2) do i multiple all of this by 2?
since i multiply the fraction by 2
i thought u meant multiply the whole thing by 2/2 to get rid of the denominator
Just divide by you have in the fraction
OHH
Yeah, but it’s easier to just directly do it
how do i divide square root of 2 by 2?
Well the whole thing is 2i rt(2), so by dividing this by 2, you would have i rt2
Yeah
and then the denominator would just be 1, which wouldnt matter
so thats the final answer
sorry im not too good at math
Nah it’s ok
so id just like some clarification on this but
2 i rt(2)
this is the same as
2 * i * rt(2) correct?
Yeah
so how come when you did the step to simplify
divide everything by 2
you only did it to the 2
i thought it would be 1 * 1/2i * 1/2(rt(2)
Because since it’s in multiplication, you only have to divide a factor of it,
You can think of it using numbers like 6/2, is the same as 2x3/2, you only divide a part of it
i see okay thanks!
and last question
the example i just solved, the simplyfying step was easy because it was all 2's
but what happens if its different numbers everywhere?
ill send u a pic of the same problem just different #'s
Ok
so i did the simplying of sqrt 20 already
but now theres an 8, 2 and 24
so im not sure how to get rid of 24?
You cannot completely remove the 24
The hcf of 2,8,24 is 2
So you can simply divide the numerator and denominator both by 2
so would it be -4 + sqrt 5 / 12?
ok thx! how do i know when a problem is completely simplified, if you werent explaining it to me
id assume i can divide in half again
is it because theres no number in front of the square root
aka there's a 1
Yeah
You can just try to take th hcf of all the numbers
If it is anything other than 1, then divide by that number
i see ok
i typed in (-4 + sqrt(5) ) / 12 into my homework problem
and it gave me a completely different correct answer so im so confused
What did it give?
You took rt20 instead of rt-20
It split the fraction into two, so that both the fractions can be fully simplified
So -4 + i rt5 / 12 = -4/12 + i rt5/12
I didn’t take the original question, I took it from here
ur right
ok i get it now, thank you for the help.
i am getting back into math so i always miss little details that throw the whole problem off
like the negative -20 lol
Mhm
anyways i can close this now thanks for ur help sir
You’re welcome

A family purchased a new home for $225 000. The appreciation of the home’s value can be
modeled by the equation 𝐻(𝑡) = 225 000 (1.08)𝑡, where 𝐻(𝑡) the value of the home and
𝑡 is the number of years they have owned the home.
a) What is the average rate of change in the home’s value between years 5 and 8?
can someone help me with this
im not sure how to start
Since this is a linear function
$\frac{f\left(b\right)-f\left(a\right)}{b-a}$
water beam
(H(8)-H(5))/(8-5)
oh alright let me do it
2862.016?
lemme check
alright
I think it's wrong
why
I get 243000 per year
can you show ur calculations
Result:
243
416459.2973 - 330598.8173 / 3
this is what i do
How did you get it?
in which equation?
225000(1.08)^t
See equation in the question
my bad
if its 225000(1.08)^t, then is my answer right?
28620.16
dollars per year
No, ig, because the function isn't linear anymore
huh
Can you differentiate?
mb you're right, your answer should be right then ig
alr can I ask another question
Yes you can
how do I find the instantaneous rate of change at 15 mins here
$28,620.32 per year is the answer i got
Is there any additional information?
yeah i got around the same answer
nope just that
take any two points through which line passing through p is passing and find their slope
based on the graph the two points i would take is P(15,4) and Q(35,6)
Now just find the slope and you would be fine
oh ok, calculated it and got 10
looks good?
yeah
aight tyyy, one last question
like the other one, but i wanna make sure im right
bring it on
The population of a town is modeled by 𝑃(𝑡) = 25𝑡^2 + 150𝑡 + 5000, where 𝑃(𝑡) is the
size of the population and t is the number of years since 2000.
a) Calculate the average rate of change in the population between 2008 and 2016
is the answer 750?
lmao I see now, im also being asked to tell whether average rate of change in population increase, decrease, or stay the same, how do i find that out
if rate of change is positive that population will increase
if it's zero it'll stay the same
if it is negative, it'll decrease
let r be rate of change of population and p be the population
if r>0, p will increase
if r=0, p will be the same
if r<0, p will decrease
ahh, so in this case it increases?
Yes
alright, a silly question (ik this is very basic), the slope of the secant drawn through thsee two points is 2?
rise 6 and run 3
so 6 / 3 = 2
yep

Help idk what to do
I can do this
but Im stuck on this
When you expand what do you get?
x^2 - 2bx + b^2 + c
good
now see how x has the coefficient -2b
and on the left side x has coefficient 6
so -2b = 6
ahh okay
similiarly b^2 + c = -2

Find all Natural Numbers for Which : (x+2)^4 -x^4 = y^3 .
I have Found no solutions can someone confirm and maybe present a Solution themself
all natural numbers x and y I assume?
Graph says there are none
By expanding the left side we get
uhhh, hell
how could you possibly tell that from a graph
There is integer solution but not natural number
this is not a relevant graph
ah nvm
that checks out

@daring sparrow Has your question been resolved?
it would be nicer to factor with difference of squares
x^2 + 2x + 2 is your ...
not sure that’s right
ye
is it?
it is
doesn't seem correct
isn’t it 8(x+1)(x^2 + 2x + 2)
$8(x+1)(x^2+2x+2) = y^3$
print("NAME")
ah nvm
oh... yeah plus sign

Determine the partial derivate of the function $f(x,y) = (xy^2+1)^5$
Merineth
I'd assume that i have to differentiate with wrt x and then wrt y
however how do i apply the chain rule here?
you apply the chain rule the same way as you usually do for derivative
if you're differentiating wrt x
just treat y as a constant
so imagine you're d/dx (k^2 x + 1)^5
where k is constant
what's the derivative of x^5?
Merineth
This would be wrt x?
yes
$5(xy^2+1)^4 * 2xy$
Merineth
yes
depend on the context
or am i thinking of gradients?
gradient here is vector, yes
but your question might not need to be answered in the gradient format
Merineth
$1 / (1 + (x/y)^2) * 1/x$
Merineth
$\frac{1}{1+(x/y)^2} * \frac{1}{x}$
$\left(\frac{1}{\left(1+\frac{y^2}{x^2}\right)}\left(\frac{\left(y-xy'\right)}{y^2}\right)=y'\right)$
you're differentiating x/y wrong
ah
$arctan(\frac{y}{x})$
Merineth
Merineth
you still haven't differeniate y/x right imo
Hmm
$y/x = yx^{-1}$
Merineth
Merineth
that changes the answer a lot , so are you differentating wrt y or the partial derivative ?
Merineth
oh
I've already managed wrt to x
now i want to do it wrt y
$artcan(x) = \frac{1}{1+x^2}$
Merineth
This is the rule for differentiating arctan
where my x is (y/x)
then i just need to differentiate inside arctan
I can't help if it's partial derivatives, sorry

can someone help me solve this
Write out tan and csc in terms of sin and cos
where did the + come from
Also you're thinking of cos(2theta) = cos^2 - sin^2
And I think you're also thinking of cos^2 + sin^2 = 1 in that last line :p (plus, not minus)
Yup
np

For (b) I need to use a graphing calculator(ti nspire 84) to find the roots of this function, I tried using nsolve to do this question, but the answer always pops up as zero, I would like to know how to set specific ranges of x when using nsolve
a container divided into three regions: A, B, and C. A gas molecule, M, initially located in region A. The problem requires calculating the probability that the gas molecule M will eventually move from region A to the outside. A particular twist in this problem is that after moving from one region to another, the gas molecule M may return to its original region, so it cannot be treated as a simple probability problem. The author shows great interest in this problem, and the teacher has promised to exempt one week's homework for the first person to solve it.

stupid question, but
lim of xsin(1/x) at infty
what is it?
not defined
right?
Closed by @desert pasture
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
it's 1
.reopen
✅
my thinking was sin(1/x) tends to zero
inf * 0 is also indeterminate indicating more work is required, not inherently undefined
can be expressed as
sin(1/x)/(1/x)
then u = 1/x gives you the trig classic limit

why is that not factorizable??
@gilded scaffold Has your question been resolved?
There is nothing to factorise. You either have 8xy when in A or 0 elsewhere
ok thx

how do you do this
replace y with x+1/x and calculate dy/dx
i get that this is quotient rule but the way the answer are arranged is confusing
Jika maka lmao
if , then
Translate plz
yeah its not in english
Oh
that meand derive right so thats
1/x^2?
yupp
ok
and if u fill that in some things will fall away nicely
does quotient rule work here?
u dont need to take a derivative of a fraction here
or is this chain rule?
no its quotient rule but u dont need to aply it in this excercise
oh ok
im kinda lost honestly now that i know its
1/x^2
idk what else ther eis to do
1/x^2 is dy/dx
oh ok
u can just fill it into the equations that are given and see what happens
yeah
xy= 2x+1?
not x^2
so xy is just x^2/x
?
wait why not?
y is x+1/x
oh yes
so xy is x(x+1/x)
i wanna make it have the szame denominator
dont do that
oh ok
its gonna give more trouble than needed
ok now heres the issue most of those result in 0
but theres nothing that can take out the
what are u left with as an equation ?
veryhuman
yeah theres the problem theres nothing getting rid of x^2
is there another part to the question ?
uhh not that i know of i took a picture of the engtire question
a seems promising
a can also not be right otherwise y is +infty
no because then x=0
and y=x+1/x
thats gonna blow up to +infty
oh alr
spookyspaghetti
so clearly b and d arent right
since yeah tehre cant be copies
hold on
wait wait wait
those are the only equations that are solvable
oh yeah i added the xs together
gotta do it all over again
i didnt add them this time bc you said somehwere dont ad the denomenators together
ok wait
so now
yeah u dont have to
y= (x^2+1)/x^2
,derivative 1/x
A brief description and guide on how to use me was sent to your DMs!
Please use ,list to see a list of all my commands, and ,help cmd to get detailed help on a command!
veryhuman
oh im not sure how to do that
,w derive 1/x
aha
but to get the image lie that jsut put $ around the
see
u forget that once on an exam and then never again
ig -1
im glad the exam im studying this for is multiple choice tho
so hoepfully if i mess up it just wont show upa s an option
is the question wich one cant be solved, by chance ?
no
im askinga friend about this aswell
all of em are solvable except e
it's asking which one is true
yes, it's D
how
what'd you get for dy/dx?
-1/x^2
-1/x^2
nope
?
it is 1 - 1/x^2
omg
imma just study to be a trashman ig cant even take a derivative anymore
