drifting knot
#

Yo

lean otter
#

I need some help understanding sequences of functions

#

why is sup norm so important

drifting knot
#

Ok

lean otter
#

is it just because for uniform convergence sup norm should converge to the limit functions sup norm

#

and this isn't true for pointwise

#

How do I get to the magnitute of the vector

quiet plume
#

Draw a right triangle, and use Pythagoras theorem

dark warren
#

like this?

quiet plume
#

Yes

dark warren
#

ohhh

#

i understand now

#

thank you

#

what would I do if pythag wouldnt work

quiet plume
#

It will always work.

dark warren
#

alright

quiet plume
#

Since the axes are perpendicular, the coordinates will always make a right triangle

dark warren

Quesiton C is wrong in my working out

#

I was attempting to apply the formula. The only thing different to my answers is the n-1 power was just an n.

#

Why would this be the case?

knotty pier
#

Why do u think it is n-1?

eternal carbon
knotty pier
#

Ok so just to be sure

#

put n=0 when it is not charged at all

#

U should be getting 32

#

But u r getting 32/0.95

#

If it was n rather than n-1

#

It would be correct

#

@strange plaza

strange plaza
#

$T_n=ar^{n-1}$

flat frigateBOT
strange plaza
#

Tn was given to be 2.

#

I simply subbed in the rest of the values and solved for n

knotty pier
strange plaza
#

Does 2 not equal Tn?

#

Is it because it has already been decharged so its n rather than n-1?

summer cliff
#

why am i wrong

safe radishBOT
icy lance
#

(x^2+2)^2 is not x^4+4

#

also youre doing this in an inefficient way

#

if dy/dx=g(x)
and youre integrating 3g(x) then its 3 * (y(2)-y(0))

#

since g(x) integrates to y

bleak osprey
safe radishBOT
#

@summer cliff Has your question been resolved?

bleak osprey
#

even if you dont hear it, heres a simple way to put it:

you just need to put on relations for equations that you can solve;
say total students is x, total girls are G and boys are B,

if Filipinos are 1/3 of x, x/3, AND 2/3 of girls, 2G/3, it means they both equal each other, then we can find a general equation for x that is: x = 2G

as boys are given, 30, and as x should be the sum of number of girls and boys, x = G + B, that gives us second chance for relating equations, so

as x = 2g and also x = G + B, 2G = G + B, simplifies to G = B, so total students, x, is 2 B, that is 60

we related equations 2 times, first, for getting a equation to relate girls with total students, second to realte boys with girls

summer cliff
bleak osprey
icy lance
#

$\frac{dy}{dx}=g(x)$ so
$$\int_{a}^{b} g(x) dx=y(b)-y(a)$$

summer cliff
#

@icy lance i just dont understand why answer integrate y when the question ask for integrate g(x) which is deriavatives of y

icy lance
#

i didnt integrate y

#

i integrated g

summer cliff
#

the answer integrate y

icy lance
#

which answer?

summer cliff
#

answer sheet for this paper

icy lance
#

may i see

summer cliff
#

is not wt me

icy lance
#

sure youre remembering that right, not confusing evaluating y with integrating y

summer cliff
#

i wrote down the step from the answer

icy lance
#

thats just what i said

#

it doesnt integrate y anywhere on that paper

#

it evaluates it

#

between 0 and 2

summer cliff
#

so y = g(x)?

icy lance
#

no

#

dy/dx=g(x)

icy lance
summer cliff
#

ok let me try understand it

bleak osprey
#

is 8 − 6 ln(3) the answer?

#

oh wait, spaces

bleak osprey
icy lance
#

its closed

bleak osprey
icy lance
#

most certainly isnt

summer cliff
#

even i didnt get ln

bleak osprey
#

ok I guess, let me check again

#

but it sure uses the quotient rule

icy lance
#

also no

bleak osprey
#

yeah

icy lance
#

you do not need to differentiate anything for this question

bleak osprey
#

for the derivative

icy lance
#

dont need it

#

fundamental theorem of calculus is the game

icy lance
bleak osprey
#

go ahead

#

you sure dont need the direct value of the derivative mate?

summer cliff
bleak osprey
#

oh wait, lol, yeah he is right

summer cliff
#

can you explain cause my brain is not functioning

bleak osprey
#

just substitute g(x) with dy/dx, then integrate the integral

#

for simpler sense, imagine it like this, cause explaining integration is hard for me:

put the 3 out for a sec

dy/dx cancels out with dx, leaving y, which is then integrated with the limits

#

which in fact makes it: 3 [y(2) - y(0)] if you have studied limits

summer cliff
#

ok let me try and understand it (pls brain)

bleak osprey
#

eval y(2) and y(0), and as I see it, the answer should be 4

#

but why doesnt my answer also match, let me analyse wait

summer cliff
#

basically if i integrate g(x) i get y

#

ohh

#

i get it

#

basically the integration of g(x) is just y

bleak osprey
#

revise it and you are good to go

summer cliff
#

wanna know something

#

i got 8 mark

bleak osprey
#

from what?

#

total markings?

summer cliff
#

8/100 additional mathematics

bleak osprey
#

damn

summer cliff
#

the only question i got right is triangle

#

function and calculus i get nothing

#

so i am trying to revise rn

bleak osprey
#

g(x) is actually the derivative, we are actually going the derivative of y, that is g(x)

#

so we are actually finding g(x) in a sense if we dont use direct integration

#

because if we do, heres what will happen which will lead to my answer

summer cliff
#

basically the anti derivative of g(x) is just y so i can just sub in 2,0 into y right?

bleak osprey
#

yeah

summer cliff
#

damm

bleak osprey
#

the thing is, in calc at least, different approaches get different answers

summer cliff
#

ic

#

ok thx ya

bleak osprey
#

but when you simplify it all, it goes all back to 4, in this case

bleak osprey
summer cliff
#

ya

bleak osprey
#

so when I did it, I first when for y's derivative, that with quotient rule, it would be

4(2-x2)/(x2 + 2)2
put that in the integral in place of g(x), multiplies with 3

now to integrate this

use subtitution, say u, it would make

u = x2 + 2, x dx = 1/2 du

substitute this with the dx in the integral

further simplification (too much to write so I am skipping for now), makes 2 integrals, each of them when integrated, gives out 2 factors, -4/u and ln u

subtract them respectively with the limits and multiply it with the simplified constant(s), which would come from simplication of the substitued integral

and finally, evaluating this down, gives:

,latex 8 - 6 ln(3)

flat frigateBOT
#

Greydawn Dewer

bleak osprey
#

but the answer when evaluated with direct integration makes more sense so understand that first

#

fundamental theorum is more important

summer cliff
#

ic

#

basically u use integrated the quotient rule?

#

then get ln

bleak osprey
#

the rule, substitution, form change of the integral, sepration, redefining inetgrals, simplication, evaluation of limits, final evaluation, and the answer

#

or the direct method, that is, the fundamental theorum, which gives 4

summer cliff
#

icic

#

is a bit too much for me but thx ya

bleak osprey
#

just for context

summer cliff
#

hm

bleak osprey
summer cliff
#

i know chain rule product rule and quotient rule

#

actually i forgot about chain rule 💀

#

for integration, i just know the basic which is find area/volume under a curve

#

thats it ya

bleak osprey
#

and focus on differentiation more

summer cliff
#

so i should focus on dy/dx?

bleak osprey
#

yeah mainly that, because integration will be more easy then

summer cliff
#

ic

bleak osprey
#

at least the questions

summer cliff
#

fyi, i am learning standard normal distribution currently

bleak osprey
#

because you know, integrals are really the 'anti' derivatives

summer cliff
#

ok i ma do some differentiation question

#

thx ya

bleak osprey
#

4 is the correct one

#

my calculations went wrong, but the method is fine

#

but these questions need basic theorums like the fundamental one, so stick to that, yeah

keen thicket
#

Why does defining T(v) this way implies that there is at most one linear map T with T(vi) = wi, i.e why there cannot exist other linear map where T(vi) = wi?

peak estuary
#

T(v) isnt defined that way. its already forced to equal that result just by setting T(vi)=wi and requiring T to be linear

keen thicket
#

I don't understand why it writes "First we verify there is at most one linear map T with T(vi) = wi"

#

can't they just skip that and say "First we set T(vi)=wi"

peak estuary
#

the theorem claims there is a linear map and it claims that map is unique. so there is two things to show. they first show the uniqueness part

keen thicket
#

Ahhh

peak estuary
#

its often easier to assume first that something exists and then work with it, discovering some properties

#

and then afterwards using the properties you just discovered that such an object should have to then define that object

#

in this case equation 6.3

keen thicket
#

so by defining T(vi) = wi, T can be written as equation 6.3 and then we proof the existence of this equation 6.3?

peak estuary
#

we first assume that a linear map satisfying T(vi)=wi exists

#

then we find out that T(v) for some arbitrary v is given by equation 6.3

#

and then we use this equation to actually define T

keen thicket
#

ohhh because at first we aren't even sure that a T s.t T(vi) = wi exist, which means we can't jump and define it

#

so we first assume T(vi) = wi exist

#

i'm sorry but i haven't take any proof writing class and jump to linear algebra right away

#

i mean the book says "Linear Algebra as an introduction to abstract mathematics"

peak estuary
#

yeah its a good introduction

keen thicket
#

ok i can see why a linear map with this property exist but why is it unique? i.e why there can't be any other linear map where T(vi) = wi?

peak estuary
#

because just from T(vi)=wi its already forced what T has to do for every v

#

so any other function S with S(vi)=wi would need to do the same for every v

#

so S(v)=T(v) for every v

#

aka S=T

keen thicket
#

i see

#

idk if this is a stupid question or not: this logic only works because S is linear right?

peak estuary
#

not a stupid question

#

yes

#

being linear is very important

#

good catch, I failed to mention that

keen thicket
#

alright man, thanks for answering but there are one other theorem that i don't understand yet (it is connected to this one)

#

but i'm trying to do my best to understand it by myself first

#

so... maybe we should close this one for now

keen thicket
peak estuary
#

maybe I'll see your help channel

#

but there are certainly also other good people on here who can help you

Can someone help me with number 4?

safe radishBOT
hard crest
#

what have you tried or noticed so far?

harsh peak
#

I dunno honestly

#

I tried putting it into desmos

#

But I couldn’t find the pi

hard crest
#

okay, I don't think that desmos will be necessary here

harsh peak
#

Idk I thought I could graph it or something and see if there are intersections

hard crest
#

perhaps you could, but that will not tell you the exact solutions

#

still though - what do you notice about the equation?

harsh peak
#

Yea ik but there isn’t a pi symbol when u put in the equation

#

The left side has a lot of pi going on

hard crest
#

or what are some techniques and procedures you've learned to manipulate expressions?

#

good

harsh peak
#

Wait could I factor the right side like what’s in the log

hard crest
#

yes, very good

#

go ahead and do that

harsh peak
#

Okok ima do it and show u

#

I’m thinking maybe I could have x² rep a different variable

#

Like x² = y

hard crest
#

as for the left side, I'm actually not sure what will be the most productive way to manipulate it. One thing you could try is using angle sum formulas to at least get rid of the 5π term, but perhaps that will not be helpful

#

sure

#

if that makes it easier for you to factor it

harsh peak
#

Hold up

#

I’m getting 18² - 4(1)(85)

#

324 - 340

#

-16

#

Square root THAG

hard crest
#

i do not understand how you arrived at that expression

harsh peak
#

That*

#

Same

hard crest
#

oh, the discriminant

harsh peak
#

Yea

#

I used the quadratic formula

hard crest
#

hmm, then perhaps factoring may not be the way to go

harsh peak
#

Does that mean there are no real solutions since u can’t square root a negative?

hard crest
#

it means that the expression is not factorable.

harsh peak
#

Aw man 😔

honest perch
#

can't you still factor it

faint seal
honest perch
#

it means what's inside the log is never zero which is good

hard crest
#

you could factor it over the complex numbers, but I think you may be better off completing the square

faint seal
#

yeah just complete the square of both sides

#

that should be enough

#

you should probably factor out a pi first, from inside the sin()

honest perch
#

right of course

harsh peak
#

Doing that rn, factoring out pi

hard crest
#

in fact it looks like all five of these problems share that theme

harsh peak
#

Should I factor what’s in the brackets?

hard crest
#

you should complete the square on what's in the brackets

#

ie put it in vertex form

harsh peak
#

okok

hard crest
#

i don't think you'd be able to factor it

harsh peak
#

That’s like dividing the b by 2 then squaring it right?

hard crest
#

well, yes. i would hope you're familiar with this procedure

harsh peak
#

Yea I did that in grade 10 math

#

NO MY PEN DIED 😔

honest perch
#

rip

hard crest
#

I shall arrange a séance

harsh peak
#

Thanks u 😔

#

I’m gonna put it in charge rq

bleak osprey
#

a lot of havoc here, I sense

harsh peak
#

Ding dang darn math

#

I forgot how to complete the square 😭

#

I remember having to add and subtract something so they cancel out

#

Was it like this

hard crest
#

yes that

harsh peak
#

Oh okay good

hard crest
#

and now the first three terms form a square trinomial

harsh peak
#

Yea now I take the last term out

#

Is it x - 9/2 or x + 9/2

#

It’s - right?

#

I took out the -81/16 and added it to 5

#

Got -1/16

#

Now it’s this

honest perch
#

should be (x - 9/4)^2

harsh peak
#

Why?

#

-9/2 was the original b value

#

Then I divided it by 2 and squared it to get 81/16 and so on so forth

honest perch
#

just for reference

harsh peak
#

Okay

honest perch
#

(x - 9/4)^2 = x^2 - 2(9/4) + 81/16

#

which is what you have

harsh peak
#

Wdym

honest perch
#

wdym wdym

harsh peak
#

Where?

honest perch
#

x^2 - 9x/2 + 5 = (x - 9/4)^2 - 1/16

#

if you just expand it you will see it's true

honest perch
honest perch
harsh peak
#

Idek anymore 😭

honest perch
honest perch
harsh peak
#

But why do I put 9/4? Does that replace the b value

honest perch
#

wdym b value

#

b = -9/2?

harsh peak
#

This one

honest perch
#

yea it becomes (x + b/2)^2

#

because when u expand it it's 2(x)(b/2) = bx which is what you had originally

#

do you know how to expand something like (y+z)^2

harsh peak
#

I thought it’s supposed to be like that

honest perch
#

yes correct

harsh peak
#

So in 2) instead of 9/2 it’s 9/4?

honest perch
#

no

harsh peak
#

So it’s still 9/2

honest perch
#

mhm

harsh peak
#

Okok

#

That’s good

#

So it’s still this than

honest perch
#

no

#

what happens when u expand (x-9/2)^2

harsh peak
#

I’ll do that

hard crest
#

so $x²-9x+\f{81}4$

Yea basically

#

#

Maybe guess and check

#

Not guess and check

#

There could be multiple solutions

#

😔

#

$x^2-\f92x+\f{81}{16} = \lp x-\f94\rp^2$

flat frigateBOT
#

hayley 🥥 🌴

harsh peak
#

How did u get that?

#

I mean like why is it 9/4

hard crest
#

um well because that's b/2

#

compare x²-2x+1 = (x-1)²

#

or x²-6x+9 = (x-3)²

Wait that makes sense now

#

😭😭

#

But the pi is what is throwing me off

#

I hate pi

hard crest
#

it's... just a number

harsh peak

So now it’s 2sin(pi((x-9/2)²-1/16))

Should I complete the square for that one too

you may

harsh peak

Lemme pull it up

it might be helpful

harsh peak

Should I still do this? The replacing x² with y

hard crest

if it makes it easier for you to complete the square, sure

harsh peak

Alright

hard crest
#

the quadratic formula will not be necessary though

harsh peak

Yea that was from earlier lol

Sorry I had to do something but I’m back now😭

#

I’ll do it now

#

on this thing how would you do question 3

harsh peak
#

3?

#

Lemme show u

dense moon
#

sure cause im lost

harsh peak
#

R u also doing the summer thing

dense moon
#

yeah

harsh peak
dense moon
#

same i got 2 as well but i got lost somewhere

harsh peak
#

It’s alright

#

Did u do 4?

dense moon
#

4 i am solving at the moment

#

just factoring it out

harsh peak
#

Ok what abt 6?

dense moon
#

ive got an idea for 6

#

but ill get to it shortly

harsh peak
#

Rlly?

#

Ok

#

Factored the log on

#

One

#

Wait y is x² so replace y with that

dense moon
#

wait for number 3 did you assume a =b at one point or no?

harsh peak
#

So it’s gonna be

harsh peak
#

If it’s in the pictures then yea if it’s not then no

#

Sorry I just really wanna get this done 😭

hard crest
#

hmm there's a step that requires some understanding of logarithms and quadratics in vertex form

#

i don't want to say it because that's the core of the problem, and this is indeed a problem solving exercise

#

you should work with cosmos if you are working on the same problem set

harsh peak
#

I didn’t learn much abt logs yet

#

Bc I only did up to grade 11 math rn

#

Are there no real solutions?

#

Or is there at least one?

hard crest
#

that is indeed the question

harsh peak
#

I hate this problem set 🤩

hard crest
#

it's a good problem set

#

but it seems like you don't have the mathematical familiarity to quickly work on it

#

where did you get it?

harsh peak
#

Waterloo summer thinking problems solving course thingy idk what it’s called

#

Do u want pictures of the problems sets? I can give u them

#

If u wanna do them

oh, sure

daring forge
#

hi

safe radishBOT
daring forge
#

i need some help calculating profit on an investment

sweet mica
#

Ask

daring forge
#

so basically i risked 15% on a $100 account

#

i had 3 targets

#

first at 1.23 times risk
second at 2.35 times risk
third at 3.35 times risk

#

the whole position was 0.13 lots

#

i closed 0.03 lots at first target
i closed 0.06 lots at second target
i closed 0.04 lots at third target

#

i now i want to know how much i would profit compared to my risk of all 3 targets are hit

#

and im trying to make a formula to use in the future

#

i have tried like 5 times now but i cant seem to make an accurate one

honest perch
#

how did you risk the $15

daring forge
#

wdym

honest perch
daring forge
#

my investment account was at $100

#

I risked 15% of the account

#

so $15

honest perch
#

so u have $100

#

wtf are you doing with the $15

daring forge
#

that is what i put into the trade

honest perch
#

ok

#

u buy a stock for $15

daring forge
#

let say that yes

honest perch
daring forge
#

basically a lot is just the unit of the size of the position in trading

#

my trade was 0.13 lots

honest perch
#

too vague

daring forge
#

i entered a trade risking 15 dollars

#

and i had stop loss set at a point

#

for me to be able to have the stop loss i wanted and risk 15 dollars, i had to enter with 0.13 lots

#

i can illustrate it if you want

#

i finally figured it out

honest perch
#

bro's making money

#

what's the answer?

daring forge
#

the first part is the risk

#

then the risk is multiplied by the take profits

#

first, i closed 3/13 of my position at 1.23, then 6/13 of my position at 2.35, then 4/13 of my position of 3.35

#

so basically each of the 3 blocks inside the big parentheses work like this:

#

(amount of gain in terms of risk)(amount of position taken off at the level)(the risk)

#

idk why this took me so long

#

wasnt really that complicated, just looks like it

#

but anyway ill close it

#

note that if we have u=x/sqrt(1+x²)
then du/dx = 1/(1+x²)^(3/2)

then we can rewrite the integral as

how can we apply it?

do you put the sin in terms of cos and then cancel it out with the denominator?

rustic goblet

yes!!

tell me what you get catthink

sinful spire

wait so its 1-cos^2(1-sin^2)/cos^2

rustic goblet
#

I think you've applied it incorrectly

#

can you state the Pythagorean identity for me?

sinful spire
#

cos^2+sin^2 =1

rustic goblet

right.

#

so then

#

,, 1 - \cos^{2}(x) = \sin^{2}(x)

flat frigateBOT

yes

isnt that what I said?

also $1 - \sin^{2}(x) = \cos^{2}(x)$

jolly ledge
#

What will be the formula if we are required to find the number of combinations of r objects out of n with q identicals? Also, can someone explain why nPr = nCr * r! without deriving the formula?

craggy sedge
#

nPr =nCr*r! factorial is esy to explain if you remember the definitions of them

jolly ledge
#

nPr is from n arrange r objects

#

So we will have n!/(n-r)!

#

nCr is from n choose r objects

craggy sedge
#

yes

jolly ledge
#

So we

#

Take like

#

Huh

unreal ice
#

we divide the number of ways to arrange n elements by the number of ways to arrange n-r after we take r to arrange, to avoid overcounting

#

so it makes sure every permutation is counted once

jolly ledge
#

I just wrote it in the factorial form

#

After simplification, I get r!/(n-r)!

unreal ice
#

when we multiply nCr by r!, we are getting rid of the number of arrangements of the r!

unreal ice
#

so when you multiply by r!, it cancels with the denominator

#

to get n!/(n-r)!

#

nPr

jolly ledge
#

Yeah but

jolly ledge
#

Say, if we arrange 3 objects out of 5, we divide it with the ways to arrange 2 out of 5

#

What does that even mean...?

unreal ice
jolly ledge
#

Yeah that's for permutation

#

How did the combination formula come by?

craggy sedge
#

for the combination we dont care abt the arrangements of those we choose

unreal ice
#

in combinations, order is not important

jolly ledge
#

Then...?

#

How do we actually choose r objects out of n, assuming all n objects are distinct?

#

Is it like, after arranging r objects out of n objects, we divide it by r to neglect the order of arrangement?

#

Well that explains it

#

Thanks guys

not 4m

cant we just keep scaling it then

if 2m^2 is 4m^2 then isnt it just keep going

a = 2m

kindred fjord
#

idek what I did it was 2am i need to recheck this 💀

fathom jewel
#

Otherwise I can't tell what you did

kindred fjord
fathom jewel
#

yea you did a minor mistake

#

it should be division by -2 not -3

#

If you bring 3y on the other side you get -2y = 6x²-54

#

then divide by -2

#

y = (6x²-54)/(-2) = -3x²+27

kindred fjord
#

ohh ok

#

so would I graph y=-3x²+27 or did I do the thing with f(x) wrong?

fathom jewel
#

Yes u would graph that

#

Ye

#

damn do i see weed 💀

winter whale
#

Whats the logic behind it

wet wigeon
#

I dont think its anything special, you can achieve any number by manipulating the equation

#

x/c + y/d = non zero constant in general

#

You can divide both sides by that non zero constant to get that in form of x/a + y/b = 1 again

#

For example consider the line 2x + 3y = 2, dividing both sides by 2 you get
x/1 + 3y/2 = 1

#

@winter whale Did you understand the proof

#

Given in the book

I did

#

Thought there was something to more to visualising it being equal to 1

so u must go all the way till u reach 10 on the x axis to output 1

#

but with f(2x)

#

with x = 5, u get f(2*5) = f(10) = 1

#

so u dont have to go that far out

#

u see the inputs sooner

#

without having to go very far out

#

so it compresses it horizontally

hasty cairn
#

That compresses horizontally by 2 not 1/2 right?

Let ${B_i}_{i \in I}$ be a family of pair-wise disjoint
nonempty sets. Using and stating the axioms used, prove that exists a
set $B$ which shares exactly a single element with each set $B_i$.

So I suppose the solution is either based on the recursion theorem, or the AoC with some manipulations

I need help with this question, I'm not exactly sure how to solve, although I think I know it. You have to multiply the denominator by 10, but I don't know if you have to do it with the numerator too. Well, how do I do it anyways?

leaden parcel
#

The triple dots indicate it's endless

paper flume
leaden parcel
#

Yeah

#

It's basic math but I'm lost

paper flume
#

numerator sorry

#

write each of them as mixed numbers

leaden parcel
#

So, I multiply 1,0333... By 10 and leave the other alone

#

1,222... - 0,111... ÷ 10,333...

paper flume
#

well not quite

leaden parcel
#

What is it then

paper flume
#

if you multiply the denominator by 10 youre changing the value

leaden parcel
#

Yes

paper flume
#

so you need to multiply the numerator by 10 as well

leaden parcel
#

12,222... - 1,111... ÷ 10,333...

paper flume
#

can you see why its equivalent to the original expression

leaden parcel
#

No

#

Well, maybe

paper flume
#

so your original was $\frac{1.2\dots - 0.1\dots}{1.03\dots}$

flat frigateBOT
leaden parcel
#

Yes

#

But it looks like I'm getting a huge number with it

#

Sorry for the angle

#

I'm in the bus

paper flume
#

now if you multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10 you get $\frac{(10)(1.2\dots - 0.1\dots)}{(10)(1.03\dots)} = \frac{10}{10}\times\frac{1.2\dots - 0.1\dots}{1.03\dots}$

flat frigateBOT
leaden parcel
paper flume
#

why are you multiplying by 10 at the end?

#

you already multiplied it by 10

#

110/9 is correct

leaden parcel
#

Isn't it multiplication of a fraction?

#

Like, when you multiply 1/1 by 10 it becomes 10/10

paper flume
#

yes

leaden parcel
#

So technically it is 12,222/10 now

paper flume
#

1.222 yes

paper flume
leaden parcel
#

So, I solve it

#

And at the end multiply everything by 10/10

paper flume
#

well you multiply by 10/10 first because it makes it easier to solve

leaden parcel
paper flume
leaden parcel
#

This

paper flume
#

sorry woops

paper flume
leaden parcel
paper flume
#

mhm

#

thats for 12.222

leaden parcel
#

Yep

paper flume
#

do the rest

leaden parcel
#

it's 110/9 x 1/10?

paper flume
#

which one

leaden parcel
#

110/90

paper flume
#

12.222 = 110/9

#

you dont have to divide by 10 again

#

because youre already multiplying the denominator by 10

leaden parcel
#

Oooh

#

Okay wait

#

110/9 - 10/9 ÷ 93/9 x 1/10

#

Let me that that at the paper

#

I can divide 93 and 90 by 3

#

So

paper flume
#

take that out and its fine

leaden parcel
#

😂

#

Wait

leaden parcel
paper flume
#

so uh

#

$\frac{\frac{110}{9}-\frac{10}{9}}{\frac{93}{9}}$ should be correct

leaden parcel
#

100/93?

flat frigateBOT
paper flume
leaden parcel
#

I got that another way

#

Trying another method

paper flume
#

ah nice

#

that just tells you its correct

leaden parcel
#

But

#

Why it's not being divided by 10 at the end

paper flume
#

multiplying by 10/10 is the same as multiplying by 1

#

it doesnt change the result

leaden parcel
#

Hmmm

#

Okay

#

I think I understand

#

Aight

#

I think we're done here

#

Thank you seriously 🙌

hello! what is the method to solve questions like this? i know the answer is 3 but i got there in a stupid way

fathom adder
#

3n + n = 12

#

4n = 12

#

n = 3

#

:D

but the general method is much better

#

basically what YakuBros says

How to do this

safe radishBOT
leaden harness
#

Its about ellipses

#

The coefficient isn’t one, I’m not sure how to convert it into standard form

hard crest
#

complete the square with the x terms

#

then complete the square with the y terms

#

it sounds like you're already on your way to doing that

leaden harness
#

Yeah, but the y’s coefficient isn’t 1, how’d I do that

twilit moat
leaden harness
#

Yeah

#

x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1

twilit moat
#

yea

#

the thing is you have the 8x and -6y right

leaden harness
#

Yea

hard crest
#

didn't i tell you this earlier? $\f{(x-h)^2}{a^2} + \f{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1$

twilit moat
#

all that indicates is your shift like in a circle

flat frigateBOT
#

hayley 🥥 🌴

twilit moat
#

^

leaden harness
twilit moat
#

so you would complete the square for x and y separately

leaden harness
#

Yeah for x its (x+4)^2

twilit moat
#

remember that you just need to complete the square with your x^2 and x + y^2 and y terms

twilit moat
#

and then subtract the left constants

leaden harness
#

Yeah

twilit moat
#

so (x^2 +8x) can be thought of as (x+4)^2-16
