n = 0 to 4 of 2n + 1

white umbra
#

okay yeah perfect

#

now what about

#

(\frac{u^1}{1} + \frac{u^3}{3} + \frac{u^5}{5} + \frac{u^7}{7} + \dots)

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
#

how would you write that using the sum notation

upbeat ginkgo
#

n= 0 to infinity of u^2n+1/2n+1

white umbra
#

good, perfect

#

now what about

#

(\frac{u^1}{1} - \frac{u^3}{3} + \frac{u^5}{5} - \frac{u^7}{7} + \dots)

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
#

so every other one has a minus sign

upbeat ginkgo
#

n = 0 to infinity of (-1)^n u^2n+1/2n+1?

#

OHHH

white umbra
#

yes! perfect

#

yessss

upbeat ginkgo
#

THAT'S WHY THEY PUT -1!

#

caue it's ALTERNATING

white umbra
#

yessssss

#

so then we got

#

[\tan^{-1}(u) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{u^{2n+1}}{2n+1}]

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
#

are you alright with that?

upbeat ginkgo
#

yes!

white umbra
#

woooo

#

okay now lemme ask you

#

what about (\tan^{-1}(x^2))

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
#

bc that's what the problem was about

#

how can we write that in the sum notation

upbeat ginkgo
#

we can just replace it with u right?

white umbra
#

yup

#

so it'll be

#

[\tan^{-1}(x^2) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{(x^2)^{2n+1}}{2n+1}]

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
#

Or, you can simplify with exponent rules

#

[\tan^{-1}(x^2) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{x^{4n+2}}{2n+1}]

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

upbeat ginkgo
#

mhm

white umbra
#

alright

#

so now the tricky part

#

well

#

idk if it's actually that tricky

#

we're gonna need to integrate this thing

#

[\int_0^{0.1}\tan^{-1}(x^2),\dd x = \int_0^{0.1}\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{x^{4n+2}}{2n+1},\dd x]

upbeat ginkgo
#

so use u sub?

white umbra
#

nah we won't even need u-sub

upbeat ginkgo
#

oh

white umbra
#

oops forgot the dx at the end

flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

upbeat ginkgo
#

wait

#

gimme a sec

#

wouldn't it be this?

#

actually, let me post all my work

white umbra
#

yeah good! that's how you would do it without the sum-notation

#

how do you know how many terms are enough, though?

upbeat ginkgo
#

btw, I take no credit for it

white umbra
#

to get six decimal places of accuracy

upbeat ginkgo
#

I was following along something

upbeat ginkgo
#

idk

white umbra
#

haha no worries, that's good practice

upbeat ginkgo
#

that's the issue

#

should I use desmos?

white umbra
#

that's one way you could do it

#

you could just add up enough terms until there's no doubt about six decimal places

#

another way is with "lagrange error bounds", but idk if you've learned about those yet?

#

basically it tells us the maximum amount of error this approximation has

upbeat ginkgo
#

doesn't sound familiar

#

whichever method you'd prefer though, i'm cool with

white umbra
#

ah okay

#

then yeah, adding it up with a calculator is okay

upbeat ginkgo
#

ok

#

let me plug it in rq

white umbra
#

I'll post a picture of the lagrange error bound formula here for completeness, just in case it rings any bells

white umbra
# flat frigate **kalman\_filtERIC**

btw the way you would do it with this sum notation is that you would integrate every term in the sum, so the integral of x^(4n+2) becomes x^(4n+3)/(4n+3), and then you plug in x=0.1 and x=0 like you did

upbeat ginkgo
#

this looks like Taylor Series

#

is it not?

white umbra
#

yes, exactly

#

it's a method for calculating the maximum error that you get from a taylor series

#

if you only add up the first few numbers of the series

upbeat ginkgo
#

hmm ok ok

white umbra
#

if you haven't learned it in class though, just ignore it

upbeat ginkgo
#

I'll definitely keep it in mind

white umbra
flat frigateBOT
#

kalman_filtERIC

white umbra
# upbeat ginkgo

so that's another way to write the same thing that you ended up with on the last line here

#

except using the sum notation

#

and it gives a general formula for each term in the sum, so you can calculate as many terms as you want without having to redo the whole problem

upbeat ginkgo
#

I see

#

this method is WAY more efficient

white umbra
#

yeah the tricky part was just trying to write the beginning equation in sum-notation

#

but if you practice a couple things, then you'll get the hang of it pretty fast

#

and then integrating it is super easy because every term in the sum is just x^(something), so you just use the power rule to get x^(something + 1)/(something + 1)

#

this is one of the reasons why taylor series are so useful!

#

they give super easy approximations to everything

upbeat ginkgo
#

quick question though, where did the 4n+3 come from?

#

on the top and bottom?

upbeat ginkgo
#

this explains it LOL

#

mb mb

#

that makes a LOT of sense

#

it's all clicking

#

thank you so much!

#

I really really appreciate you taking time out of your day to patiently teach me this

mighty mango
#

Can someone conclude with me the derivative of inverse tan function

mighty mango
#

Bc idk where to start

#

Tan-1(x)=y so tan(y)=x

rose plume
#

implicit differentiation

mighty mango
#

Should i differentiate eith respect to y or x

mighty mango
rose plume
#

u need dy/dx

#

so differentiate both sides wr to x

vale oriole
#

im

mighty mango
vale oriole
#

implicit works but this can also be proven using the derivative of inverse functions

mighty mango
mighty mango
#

Dy/dx=1/(sec(y))^2

#

Isnt that (tan(y))^2

vale oriole
#

there is an identity involving tan^2 and sec^2

mighty mango
#

So… plugging y=tan-1(x)

vale oriole
mighty mango
#

Cosine?

vale oriole
#

yes

mighty mango
#

Sec is 1/tan right

vale oriole
#

no

#

sec is 1/cos

mighty mango
#

Why did u tell me its sec then?!

mighty mango
#

Wait i meant 1/tan

vale oriole
#

that is cot

#

but i wouldnt focus on that

#

cuz there is an identity that uses tan^2 and sec^2

mighty mango
vale oriole
#

correct

mighty mango
vale oriole
#

almost

mighty mango
#

Substracting them-?

vale oriole
#

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2

mighty mango
mighty mango
mighty mango
#

Tan(y)^2

vale oriole
#

no

mighty mango
#

Huh

vale oriole
#

i told u before dy/dx is 1/sec^2 which is cos^2

mighty mango
#

Its 1/cor

vale oriole
#

becuase sec^2 is 1/cos^2

mighty mango
#

WAIT

#

Goddamn it

#

Im stupid

#

I dervied tan(y) incorrectly

#

Ok yes dy/dx=cos(y)

vale oriole
#

cos^2

mighty mango
#

Yes

vale oriole
#

but thats besides the point

#

because i didnt want u to do this

#

i want u to use the identity tan^2+1=sec^2

mighty mango
#

So- want me to switch 1/sec^2 into 1/tan^2 +1

vale oriole
#

right

mighty mango
#

=x

vale oriole
#

...

mighty mango
#

Idk what u want me to do

vale oriole
#

tan(y)=x

#

what is tan^2(y)?

mighty mango
#

Aha

#

X^2

vale oriole
#

right

mighty mango
#

So x^2=sec^2 -1

vale oriole
#

no, we have already solved dy/dx

#

remember that our derivative needs to be in terms of x

#

1/tan^2(y)+1 is our derivative

#

and we just worked out that tan^2(y) =x^2

#

therefore the derivative is 1/x^2+1

mighty mango
#

Aha

#

Is that it

vale oriole
#

yes]

mighty mango
#

Damn

#

Okay ty

split fulcrum
#

not sure where to start

safe radishBOT
desert pasture
#

11 marks ? 💀

vale oriole
#

theres multiple parts

desert pasture
#

ah

wanton agate
#

Because O(4,5) is the midpoint of AB(as the centre of the circle) a) is obvious

vale oriole
#

therefore we know the midpoints of their x coordinates must equal the x coord of the center and likewise for the y coordinates

#

better than giving him obscure hints

safe radishBOT
#

@split fulcrum Has your question been resolved?

vale oriole
#

not gonna argue with you, I personally tutor someone who takes this course, some people learn by demonstration, and question 29 is one of the very last questions on the paper which is going to be difficult for someone who takes the course so I think its best to provide a fair bit of help for someone trying to answer this.

#

aight fine by me, for someone who is clearly older than me, ur acting pretty immature

split fulcrum
#

I’m back

#

Sorry was making food 💀

vale oriole
#

right, sorry for this mess

#

idk whats his problem

split fulcrum
#

Lemme read up lol hold on

split fulcrum
#

Yeah

vale oriole
#

right, so a midpoint is exactly half way between any 2 points, so that means that the x coordinate of the midpoint is halfway between the x coordinates of A and B since A and B are points on the circumference of the circle, their midpoint must be the center of the circle

split fulcrum
#

Right so I see that the midpoint of AB must be the centre of the circle but how do we find a and b using this?

vale oriole
#

<@&268886789983436800>

wanton agate
#

Consider that because the midpoint of AB is the centre of the circle, the horizontal distance(difference of x coordinates) from A to the centre and from B to the centre is equal

No need to ask “Can I ask…?” or “Does anyone know about…?”—it’s faster for everyone if you just ask your question! See https://dontasktoask.com/

covert yoke
#

Also leading with help means that your actual question doesn't get pinned in the channel 😉

tender solar
#

consider a covergent sequence $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{R}}$ converging to some a

#

KKomrade

covert yoke
#

o7

flat frigateBOT
gusty trench
#

do you mean that a_n is in R and n is in N? otherwise you're indexing your sequence with R?

covert yoke
#

As written it doesn't make much sense

#

It seems to be indexed by R, but there is no smallest R, so no beginning of the sequence

#

Which makes it more like a function really

#

Maybe they intended something like

#

$(a_n \in \mathbb{R})_n$

flat frigateBOT
#

OmnipotentEntity

covert yoke
#

But messed up the typesetting and didn't find it before publication?

tender solar
#

now if we take some $\epsilon_1 > \epsilon_2 > 0$ then there are $R_1, R_2 \in \mathbb{R}$ respectively such that the distance between the an and a is less than the respective $\epsilon$ for n > the respective R

flat frigateBOT
tender solar
#

aa i just want to index w some uncountable set

#

maybe [0,1]

covert yoke
#

You can index with an uncountable set

#

But you lose sequences

tender solar
#

function* ?

covert yoke
#

Exactly

#

A function can be thought of kinda sorta like a "sequence indexed by the reals"

tender solar
covert yoke
#

\ge

flat frigateBOT
tender solar
#

if so how

covert yoke
#

Assume that R_1 < R_2 and you get a contradiction pretty quickly

tender solar
#

dym greater than

covert yoke
#

Oh actually you don't

#

Because you didn't specify tight bounds

#

Ok so

#

Here's an example

tender solar
covert yoke
#

Let's say we have the function/sequence tanh(x)

#

This has a limit as x->inf of pi/2

#

We can choose two epsilon, for concreteness we can choose 0.1 and 0.01

#

ε1 = 0.1, ε2 = 0.01

#

Now the question is, can I choose R1 such that R1 > R2?

#

Yes.

#

I can choose R2 to satisfy the inequality

#

And then choose R1 larger

#

Because any R bigger than arctanh(pi/2 - 0.1) satisfies the first

tender solar
covert yoke
#

So R2 can be any value provided it is large enough

#

Let R2* be the inf of this set

#

So R2 is in the set (R2*, inf)

#

Similarly, R1 is in the set (R1*, inf)

#

Notice that while R1* and R2* follow the rules you want

#

We don't have to be conservative in our choice of Rn

#

We can choose any R1 or R2 in this set, so we can choose any ordering to our R1 and R2

tender solar
#

why should they follow

#

it makes sense but trying how to prove it

covert yoke
#

inf standing for Infimum

tender solar
#

for countable set i put n = R1+1 and done

tender solar
covert yoke
#

Sorry just noticed I used inf for infinity as well

tender solar
#

no i mean infimum

covert yoke
#

So I felt I should disambiguate

tender solar
covert yoke
#

Ok, then you should specify this, and then you can assume the opposite for the purpose of contradiction.

#

Then the proof is pretty straightforward.

If R1* is larger than R2* then this implies that |a - f(R1)| < ε1 is true for all values of R1 larger than R1*, but for any R smaller than R1* there exists some Q larger than R such that |a - f(Q)| >= ε1.

tender solar
#

aaaa

#

but that can't be because

#

infimum

#

so true

covert yoke
#

If we choose R to be between R1* and R2* then Q is also between them

#

Which means that Q is after R2* and provides a value larger than R2* such that |a - f(Q)| > ε1 > ε2

#

But by definition R2* is the smallest value of R2 such that |a - f(R)| > ε2 holds for all R > R2*

#

So we have a contradiction

tender solar
covert yoke
#

Right so if R1* is the Infimum of all Rs to where this holds, then for every R ≤ R1* there is some R1* ≥ Q ≥ R such that Q differs by more than the epsilon.

tender solar
covert yoke
#

R2* doesn't need to be the Infimum, no.

#

We just need R1* to be the Infimum, and R1* > R2 for some R2 > R2*

#

Then we have the contradiction.

#

Because we can find a Q > R2 where the inequality, which should hold for all R > R2, doesn't hold

tender solar
#

yuss kinda took inf for granted here before

#

got it ty catlove

#

also tinkaton catking

covert yoke
#

Yesssss

buoyant solstice
#

We need to show with induction, that this term is correct for the nth derivative of sqrt x

buoyant solstice
#

I have no clue in the Induction step (when k -> k+1) how to solve the part with the products of (2j-1)

faint seal
#

what is f(x)?

buoyant solstice
#

sqrt(x)

faint seal
#

I see

faint seal
#

$f^{(k)}(x)=\frac{(-1)^{k+1}}{2^k}\prod_{j=1}^{k-1}(2j-1)\cdot x^{-\frac{2k-1}{2}}$

flat frigateBOT
#

kheerii

faint seal
#

assume this as our induction hypothesis

#

assue this is true for some k, then we wish to prove it for k+1

buoyant solstice
#

yes

faint seal
buoyant solstice
#

f^{(k+1)}(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \left( \frac{(-1)^{k+1}}{2^{k}}\prod^{k-1}_{j=1}(2j - 1) \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^{2k-1}}} \right)
\end{align*}

#

$f^{(k+1)}(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \left( \frac{(-1)^{k+1}}{2^{k}}\prod^{k-1}_{j=1}(2j - 1) \frac{1}{\sqrt{x^{2k-1}}} \right)$

flat frigateBOT
#

Ant1m0n

faint seal
#

yeah

buoyant solstice
#

so we get to this point

faint seal
#

$f^{(k+1)}(x)=\frac{(-1)^{k+1}}{2^k}\cdot\left(-\frac1{2}\right)\prod_{j=1}^{k-1}(2j-1)\cdot(2k-1)\cdot x^{-\frac{2k-3}{2}}$

flat frigateBOT
#

kheerii

faint seal
#

do you see how I got that?

buoyant solstice
#

give me a second

faint seal
#

I just rearranged a few things

buoyant solstice
#

ah ok you didnt derive you just switched some parts

faint seal
#

I did differentiate

#

and THEN i switched some parts

buoyant solstice
#

ok ah i see and then we get to the same part as if we just added k+1 "manually"

#

so the solution is to derive the first function of which we assumed that it is correct

faint seal
#

what?

buoyant solstice
buoyant solstice
faint seal
#

yeah it does

#

I just did the differentiation

#

and this matches your induction hypothesis (why?)

buoyant solstice
#

because i just showed that for k+1 (the next derivative) i can either manually add one onto k or just derive the first function

#

i hope you understand what im trying to say

faint seal
#

yeah, your english is not the best but I did understand what you said

buoyant solstice
#

its hard to explain in english for me im sorry

#

but thank you very much

#

but i have one last question, why didnt anything "happen" to the products of (2j-1) ?

This is basically giving you T and asking four fourier transform of T'

#

i am not sure how to find T'

#

delta4(t+1) can be written as delta(t+1-4) = delta(t-3)

#

but that t^2 confuses me

stoic dune
#

You shouldn't find T'. You don't need it. Instead, take advantage of a Fourier transform property

I'm using DeMoivre's theorum to find an indicated power, and the answer must be in rectangular form. I understand how to solve the majority of the problem. I'm just not understanding how they got 0, and 1 here.

lilac vapor
#

cos(-33/2) in degree mode gives me 0.95881

#

in radians -0.702

#

so it's clear to me that they're not inputting these into a calculator. I'm just missing how they're getting 0 and 1

final halo
#

-33PI/2

lilac vapor
#

=-51.836

#

still totally different

#

asfjiosf now I'm missing the cos

final halo
#

in rads

lilac vapor
#

still the calculator is not helpful it is giving 1.7e-12

final halo
#

thats the calculator giving up calculating how small it is because its actually 0

#

so probably use a better calc

lilac vapor
#

ti-84 plus ce not good enough for a trig class?

final halo
#

well it seems not unless you can tell when the answer should be zero but your calc cant handle it

#

,w cos(-33pi/2)

lilac vapor
#

I think next time I see 1.7e-12 stuff I'll think 0 now. it's worked for everything else this class

final halo
#

but you could have also calculated this by hand by adding multiple of two pi onto -33pi/2 until you get to a value you know the cos of

lilac vapor
#

but that is helpful so thank you

#

also I did not realize it had to be in rads

final halo
#

if you see pi in an angle argument it 99% of the t ime implies theyre using rad

lilac vapor
#

make sense

topaz jolt
#

I need help with number seven, nine, 10, 11, and 12

red delta
#
  1. let the initial amount of candy be x
#

She took 10

#

Remaining:x-10

#

Remaining/4 =2

#

(X-10)/4=2

#

Find x

topaz jolt
#

Oh hi

#

Yo, so one thing about me is that I’m a visual learner and I won’t understand it if you just explain it

uncut juniper
#

i have x candy here

topaz jolt
#

Bro is an amputee

#

Let me just read what you said

#

I’ll try to understand

frozen veldt
#

We could also solve the problem in a slightly more creative way by doing the steps in reverse

topaz jolt
#

I’m just trying to get it done

#

Yo David, how would you write all of that in a single problem?

#

So I guess all of the problems have to look similar to number eight

#

That’s how my teacher wants me to do it

#

Two step equations

red delta
topaz jolt
#

It’s just hard to do it like that because I need to be shown things, I can’t just be told how

#

I’m a visual learner

#

Even though you written it down, I still can’t understand it

red delta
#

😣

topaz jolt
#

Like I could have all of the steps and I don’t know how to implement them onto paper is what I’m trying to say

#

Nothing I can control, It’s just how my brain is.

frozen veldt
#

What really happened:

  1. There's some amount of candy that we don't know
  2. We take out 10 pieces
  3. Divide the amount of candy in 4 (and give that amount to each child)
  4. We find that each child got 2 pieces of candy

Doing the steps in reverse

  1. One child has two pieces of candy
  2. Multiply this by 4 to get the total amount of candy that got handed out, i.e. 8
  3. Add 10 pieces of candy to get 18
  4. There's 18 pieces of candy on the table
topaz jolt
#

I think you’re supposed to do that in two steps

#

Wait I’ll just read it

#

Wait, is that two steps?

frozen veldt
#

I wish I could turn the whole thing into an animatic

topaz jolt
#

The first 4

topaz jolt
#

So I’ll have an idea

#

I know it sounds like I’m just getting the answer, but I’m sure the other ones are similar to that and I can implement that into the other problems

#

I hope there is similar. I don’t really know much about the problems. I’ve been sitting here for hours.

#

I’m just hard to work with

#

That I do apologize for

frozen veldt
#

I would first try to understand it by physically seeing the situation unfold and only then would I translate it to math language. But since I can't come over to your house and act it out I'll try to jump straight to scary math language

There's some amount of candy that we don't know, let's call it x

Then we take out 10 pieces, so we have x - 10 pieces of candy left

Then we divide that amount of candy among 4 children, so we have (x - 10) / 4 pieces of candy for each child

We know that the amount of candy that each child got was 2, so therefore (x - 10) / 4 = 2

#

The equation is formed step-by-step by following very carefully what Aliyah did

topaz jolt
#

Sorry, I’m still not understanding

frozen veldt
#

Let's say there's 18 pieces of candy on the table

#

there could be more, there could be less, we don't know

#

but let's just say there's 18 and see what would happen

topaz jolt
#

So before you say anything else do I just write 18 right now?

#

On the paper?

frozen veldt
#

you can write it on an unimportant scratch paper

#

because writing stuff down is good

topaz jolt
#

I’m just gonna write it down on the paper because I have to show my work

#

That’s the problem. I know the answer. I just don’t know how to get there

frozen veldt
#

but writing stuff down without knowing what's about to happen means you might have to erase stuff later

topaz jolt
#

I can erase

#

All right, so I have 18 written down

frozen veldt
#

okay

#

Now if you take out 10 pieces, how do you describe that mathematically?

topaz jolt
#

18-10?

frozen veldt
#

yes very good

topaz jolt
#

So I have 18-10 on my paper so far

frozen veldt
#

so now, instead of writing down the result, treat 18-10 as a number on its own

topaz jolt
#

Ok

frozen veldt
#

pretend you don't know how to subtract 18-10

#

if we added five candy to the pile, we could still write 18-10+5

#

to write down how much candy we have

#

even if we don't know how to carry out the computation

topaz jolt
#

Are you supposed to do an equals something after this because this looks familiar?

frozen veldt
frozen veldt
#

we're just forming some kind of expression

topaz jolt
#

Ok

#

So I have 18-10+5

#

Like you said

frozen veldt
#

So what happened was

  1. There's some amount of candy that we don't know
  2. We take out 10 pieces
    3) Divide the amount of candy in 4 (and give that amount to each child)
  3. We find that each child got 2 pieces of candy
#

The adding five candy was just an example, that never actually happened in the story

topaz jolt
#

Wait, divide?

#

OK now I’m confused because I don’t know how to divide from 18-10+5

#

Am I supposed to erase that?

frozen veldt
#

well let's think about that

#

in mathematics, if you have lots of numbers and symbols and stuff, but you see it as one big thing, you can put parenthesis around it and do something to it

#

So if you have 18-10+5 candy on the table and you want to divide that by 4, then you could write (18-10+5)/4

#

And the idea is that (18-10+5) is seen as one big collection of candy that you divide by 4

topaz jolt
#

Like this?

frozen veldt
#

yess exactly

#

very good

#

Could you describe verbally what that expression means in terms of candy?

topaz jolt
#

I can’t

frozen veldt
#

that's okay

#

we interpret 18 as being 18 candy on the table

#

can you try to guess what 18-10 might mean?

#

like how you could interpret that

topaz jolt
#

You just do 18-8?

#

Which is 8

frozen veldt
#

18-8 is 10, isn't it?

#

Or what do you mean?

#

ohh ok

#

I see what you mean

topaz jolt
#

Your right

#

I made a mistake. I was just thinking incorrectly.

#

Thinking fast

#

Yo, wait a minute

frozen veldt
#

well you said 18-10 is 8 and that's good because that's true

topaz jolt
#

My keyboard acted up

#

I meant to say fast, but I was trying to type then it wasn’t working then that came up

frozen veldt
#

that's okay

topaz jolt
#

I did not mean to call you fat ass

topaz jolt
#

Thank you

topaz jolt
frozen veldt
#

yess

topaz jolt
#

Because I had a memory of that and I thought that’s what I saw

frozen veldt
#

You know how to compute 18-10 but do you know the interpretation of what that subtraction really means?

topaz jolt
#

I do not

frozen veldt
#

it's very important to be able to connect math to things and actions in the real world

#

because humans are not naturally good at math but we are naturally good at sensing the real world

#

and also lots of math problems in school involve a verbal real world description that you have to write in the language of math

topaz jolt
#

Wait, I think I did this before

#

These problems I just don’t know how to remember it, but I have the worksheet on how I did it in the classroom

frozen veldt
#

you can interpret 18-10 as an action where you start with 18 candy and you take away 10 candy and the result, the number 18-10, is how many you're left with

topaz jolt
#

8

frozen veldt
#

yes, the result is of course 8

#

but the result in this case is less important than the visual in your head

topaz jolt
#

Eight is the answer for number seven?

frozen veldt
#

can you verify that?

#

do you know how you could verify that?

topaz jolt
#

18-10=8

#

I don’t know what you mean by verify

frozen veldt
#

well it's certainly true that 18-10=8

#

but is it true that Aliyah started with 8 candy

#

that's the problem we're trying to solve

topaz jolt
#

I’m sorry I’m just not understanding anything

#

I still only got 18-10+5/4

frozen veldt
#

I think you're doing a great job

#

you're just very eager to solve the problem

#

while I'm trying to teach you mathematical thinking

topaz jolt
#

I’ve just been sitting here for hours and this is just consuming my day, I’m not trying to ramble on. I’m just saying. Sorry that sounds like I’m just complaining.

#

I just didn’t do so good this year and this is summer school

#

Had a tutor, but didn’t end out so well

#

She was just busy a lot of days

#

Sorry for just rambling on

frozen veldt
#

Well I understand your frustration but paradoxically if you try less to solve the problem and try more to just have fun with the math then you might end up learning useful skills that will actually help you solve more problems faster in the long run

topaz jolt
#

And the tutor wasn’t that great because I still didn’t understand a lot of stuff

#

I was kind of having fun with the math then I just got stuck for hours and hours

#

It’s just so hard trying to learn it through text

#

I hate how my brain is like that

frozen veldt
#

Do you have access to paper where you could scribble down some notes that you don't have to erase later?

topaz jolt
#

Yeah

frozen veldt
#

I think that would be helpful

topaz jolt
#

It’s just I wish I could go back in the classroom because I have all of this on a different piece of paper because we did all of these problems

#

Many days ago

#

I don’t know why we’re doing it again

frozen veldt
#

Do you think you would understand the solution if you saw it?

topaz jolt
#

What do you mean?

frozen veldt
#

like, they're not giving you these problems because they want you to produce the right symbols that a teacher wants to see, they're giving you these problems because

  1. these are problems that can be solved

  2. these are descriptions of actions that someone in the real world might do that you can describe using numbers and symbols

  3. they want you to both improve as a problem solver and especially they want you to learn to describe things that someone in the real world might do using the language of numbers and symbols

#

So if you think the adults are stupid and this is all useless and you just want to enjoy your summer then my honest response is that the skill of writing stuff down in the language of numbers and symbols turns out to be incredibly useful in life and there is a reason for why they're teaching you these things, so I would re-evaluate your position

And if you've never really thought about why you're doing these things, then maybe now you have

And my question to you is what do you think would help you understand how numbers and symbols describe the real world

#

Because if you think seeing the full solutions actually helps you then it would take me about 30 seconds to give you the solutions to all these problems

topaz jolt
#

I don’t think adults are stupid

#

Your not

frozen veldt
#

I can give you the full solutions if you'd like

#

it might be against the server rules or guidelines but I can do it, I don't care

#

whatever you think is helpful

topaz jolt
#

Do whatever you want

#

If it’s against the rules, just do it in DM

frozen veldt
#

all I'm saying is that math is not about symbols, it's about connecting symbols to physical actions that your brain understands

topaz jolt
#

Wait, are you saying giving me the answers? I mean, I would find the answers and figured out tomorrow anyways.

#

Wait, not just the answers I mean how to get them

#

Is that what you’re trying to say?

frozen veldt
#

I mean ultimately I just want to help you

topaz jolt
#

I’m sure he’ll explain it tomorrow and then it’ll finally click

topaz jolt
frozen veldt
#

for what it's worth, I think so too

topaz jolt
#

I appreciate you being dedicated to helping someone like me

frozen veldt
#

you're very lucky to have a tutor

topaz jolt
#

You?

#

Well, I had a tutor, but not anymore

frozen veldt
#

well you're in summerschool or something

topaz jolt
#

Just too many problems, my dad having too many problems with the tutor

#

It’s a long story

#

My dad didn’t like the place

#

But that tutor just always made me feel stressed, I’m not talking you down on her. I’m just saying from my experience.

#

Just had an attitude

frozen veldt
topaz jolt
#

For one I’m just trying to write down the problem and I know she can clearly see what I’m writing but she says no erase it has to be “neat”

#

She knows what I’m trying to write down. It just makes it harder for me.

frozen veldt
#

She's wrong

#

Math should not be neat

topaz jolt
#

Exactly

frozen veldt
#

for the vast majority of the time it should be messy and indecipherable to everyone but you, until it clicks in your brain, and then you give out the "clean" argument

topaz jolt
#

She’s talking about you have to write an = with the spacing in the exact way she wants me to

#

Math is not neat, my teacher told me the people that are good at math have bad handwriting

#

I have bad handwriting. I just don’t know everything about math.

#

I’m good at math and I’m dedicated to it when I actually know what I’m doing

#

I was doing completely fine before these

#

And a way she taught me was I need to solve it on my own and have her solve it and compare answers but in reality I never know what I’m doing and I always get it wrong and then she just tells me the answer

#

That never helps

#

She always ends up, just telling me answers

#

That’s not what a tutor is supposed to do

#

Anyways, I gotta stop babbling

frozen veldt
#

It's very interesting to hear about your experience

#

and I'm sorry that the tutoring didn't work out too well

topaz jolt
#

It’s alright

#

I’ve been doing fine with everything until now

#

I haven’t been needing her help

#

But now I’m just stuck and I’ve been stuck for three hours

#

I just wish you were here in real life so you could just show me one step at a time and have me write it down because that’s how I learn

#

It’s like a foreign language when it’s just through text

frozen veldt
#

still waiting for the scientists to invent teleportation

topaz jolt
#

I can’t visualize what I need to do through my head

topaz jolt
#

I can tell you would make a great teacher, but the only reason why we’re not getting anywhere is because of my learning style

#

You’re great at teaching. I’m just not great at understanding through text

#

That’s why it’s taking a while

frozen veldt
#

You're a great student because I can see that you want to learn

topaz jolt
#

I do, I still just want to get this done because that’s what a teenagers mindset is but I still want to know how to do it

frozen veldt
#

Would you want to try a simpler problem that I'll try to make a little more visual?

topaz jolt
#

I want to know how to do it because I can’t just put the answer and call a day. He knows that I could just search it up so the grade is work, not the solution

frozen veldt
#

Okay. I have a mystery box here with some of amount of dots

somber cape
#

I'm having trouble understanding why the gradient points in the direction of the greatest increase in height for a point, given that the gradient is Fx + Fy

somber cape
#

So if I have a point

#

let me try drawing it first and making sense of it

#

Given this contour map and the purple point

#

ive drawn the direction of the partial derivative in the x and y direction

#

and then the gradient would be in the direction of them added right

#

so the gradient tells us the direction of greatest increase in height

#

idk if im confusing something but wouldn't Fy have the greatest increase in height for that point?

#

my understanding must be wrong somewhere and im not sure where

However what is true, is that the composition is always uniformly continuous; that's not the statment in your question

The negation

in such case, yeah try to prove the negation of the statment

why 4(3-5x^3)^3 exists if there's no dy/du ?

covert yoke
#

I don't see u or du on this board?

#

Also d/dx(2+3x^(-1)) isn't -3

sand tree
#

idk how to name it, the and said there's 4(3-5x^3)^3

covert yoke
#

Ah

#

Ok, so one way you can define the product rule is by setting one of the two functions f and g and name them as variables u and v

#

So dy/dx = u dy/dv + v dy/du if x = uv

sand tree
#

why it's 0 + (-1)..... and not 0 * (-1)......

covert yoke
#

That's part of d/dx(2 + 3x^(-1))

#

This is equal to d/dx(2) + d/dx(3x^(-1))

#

And d/dx(2) is 0

sand tree
#

like 3(2-4) = 3(2) + 3(-4)

covert yoke
#

Sorta yeah, but it only works with so-called "linear operators".

The derivative is a linear operator.

#

@sand tree ^

#

Anyway, I need to go afk. Best of luck!

In a bag of 10 black balls and 5 white balls, you pick up 3 and keep 1 back in the bag. What's the probability of both being different colours?

I tried it, couldn't solve further than first substituting a+x² as u and then later U as a²cos²x

lean otter
#

Ok

#

Can you try something else?

#

Can you put x=atanu?

wooden remnant
#

Okay thank you

#

I got it

barren bronze
#

hey understand this is physics but i figured its math too. if you guys think its inappropriate ill remove it

barren bronze
#

need help with all the questions

lean otter
#

Did you split the force vector into it's components?

barren bronze
#

i dont really know what that means sry, can u explain?

lean otter
#

2 min

#

We just discussed it above?

barren bronze
#

ok so Fv is gravity right and Fh is the pushing?

lean otter
#

Say F is the resultant of vectors Fv and Fh

barren bronze
lean otter
#

Yep!

#

So what do think Fv would be?

barren bronze
#

Sinus of F?

#

Or F Sin 45

lean otter
#

I think you mean F sin(theta)
Never heard of the word sinus

lean otter
lean otter
#

And Fh ?

barren bronze
#

Fh is F cos of theta

lean otter
#

Yes

#

Now you have the components of F

#

Draw them

barren bronze
#

but we dont know F ?

lean otter
#

Let's just keep it as F

#

We will find it soon

#

Do you know what a Free body diagram is?

barren bronze
lean otter
#

It's a figure representing all the forces acting on a body

barren bronze
#

Something like this?

lean otter
#

Here you have the applied forces F,and the weight of the body

lean otter
#

But rather than F , represent it's components

barren bronze
#

Is it Fsin ^2 + F Cos ^2?

lean otter
#

We just discussed it above?

barren bronze
lean otter
#

Yes

barren bronze
#

So the line parralel to g is Fh?

lean otter
#

Are you sure,think again.

#

Fh is directed along x axis while g is directed along -y

#

Nvm

lean otter
barren bronze
#

Like this

#

or did i meess up?

lean otter
#

Yeah

#

Its wrong

lean otter
barren bronze
#

yes sort of

lean otter
#

Okay

#

Try drawing the force due to gravity here

barren bronze
#

so i draw like picture?

lean otter
#

That would do too

barren bronze
#

,rotate

flat frigateBOT
barren bronze
#

(Ft for total )

lean otter
barren bronze
#

Isnt that Fv?

lean otter
#

No

#

Fv would be the vertical component of F

barren bronze
#

,rotate

flat frigateBOT
lean otter
#

Say you have a box
You are pushing it from above with force Fv then
Would Fv be equal to the force due to gravity?

lean otter
#

Now

#

The question says "pushed across with constant speed "
What does this statement tell you about it's acceleration and force

barren bronze
#

we can use equations of motion right? Bwcause acceleration is uniform

lean otter
#

Horizontal force*

lean otter
#

It is not the acceleration which is uniform

barren bronze
#

Velocity

lean otter
#

Yes

#

So acceleration would be?

barren bronze
#

Not uniform or velocity / timee

lean otter
#

No

#

We have acceleration as difference in velocity/difference in time

barren bronze
#

Oh yes delta v/ delta t

lean otter
#

Since velocity is constant difference would be 0 thud giving you the acceleration of the body as 0

#

Agreed?

barren bronze
#

Yes

lean otter
#

Okay,before we proceed any further
I forgot something

lean otter
barren bronze
#

can we do that? i mean isnt normal force on same place as Fv?

lean otter
#

Wdym "same place"?

barren bronze
#

its the same quantity as mg but opposite and goes straight up

lean otter
#

No

lean otter
#

But that's not what is happening here

barren bronze
#

does it go sideways to the top right?

lean otter
#

We have a vertical force Fv

lean otter
#

In this case the ground and the box

barren bronze
lean otter
#

So what is the direction of N?

#

,rotate

flat frigateBOT
barren bronze
#

it goes up atleast😅

#

nvm its prolly wtong

lean otter
barren bronze
lean otter
#

The point/ line of contact BTW the box and the ground

barren bronze
#

Under Fv?

lean otter
#

It's this

barren bronze
#

oh

lean otter
#

So what the perpendicular dicular direction of this line?

barren bronze
#

to the x axis

lean otter
#

Brb

barren bronze
#

or to the right

barren bronze
lean otter
#

This itself is the x axis

#

How can a line perpendicular to it be x axis itself?

lean otter
barren bronze
#

true

lean otter
#

Well it's y axis

lean otter
#

And forget about F since you have mentioned it's components

barren bronze
lean otter
#

...

lean otter
barren bronze
#

Damm im very bad at this

lean otter
#

It's alright

#

My way to expressing on how to solve it is quite bad

barren bronze
#

no i think its the way ur supposed to, but tell me next step

lean otter
#

If yes send the pic

barren bronze
#

no how do i do that?

#

I put N up right as Y?

lean otter
#

Yes

barren bronze
lean otter
#

Why did you change the directions of Fv and Fh ?

lean otter
barren bronze
#

oh i didnt realise i changed them

lean otter
#

You are presuming that only one force can exist along a particular direction

lean otter
#

Then your presumption is wrong

barren bronze
#

i guess i am wrong

#

or i think

lean otter
#

Well have you changed your FBD ?

barren bronze
#

was the figure right? But the Fv and Fh wrong spots?

lean otter
barren bronze
#

in that case i changed it by switching Fv and fh

lean otter
#

Pic

barren bronze
#

so what nect

lean otter
#

This is the correct FBD

lean otter
valid jetty
#

question

#

@lean otter

barren bronze
#

yeah thats true

lean otter
#

@valid jetty will continue from here

valid jetty
#

frictionless surface?

lean otter
#

I gtg,sorry

lean otter
barren bronze
valid jetty
lean otter
#

Didn't say it in the question but check (iv)

valid jetty
#

ahh ic i got it

barren bronze
#

this is question

valid jetty
valid jetty
#

in d

barren bronze
#

no thats all

lean otter
#

Alright I will l3ave,
Sorry again

valid jetty
#

@lean otter oii

#

one thing

lean otter
#

Yes

valid jetty
#

dynamic friction coeff means where it is rest?

#

cuz they asked us to find the coeff

lean otter
#

No

#

Dynamic mean kinetic

valid jetty
lean otter
#

Kinetic friction

#

We never learnt the term dynamic XD

valid jetty
#

ohh

lean otter
#

It can be deduced though

valid jetty
#

okay whats dynamic now?

#

i just never bothered

#

took all as friction

lean otter
#

Kinetic...

valid jetty
#

this thing and i can take care of rest

lean otter
#

Static kinetic frictions

#

Remember ?

valid jetty
#

ok so basically mu

#

got it

lean otter
#

Alright then bye

valid jetty
#

but they asked to find it

valid jetty
lean otter
#

Bruh

valid jetty
#

ok nvm

lean otter
#

The question says constant vrlocity

valid jetty
#

constant velocity

barren bronze
valid jetty
#

yeye

#

got it
