so you do that for x and y and equate your remaining constants
you would convert 3y^2 to 3(y^2+2y)
and also your subtraction here should be on the LHS not RHS
Oh but don’t we need to make it 1?
Accidentally changed it
yes but you can divide both sides by the remaining constant
at the end
to make it that anyway
I see
I was just pointing out you had your signs wrong

I would like someone to help me solve this one
- Differentiate it
The derivative of h(x) has a factor of (x+1)
Am I right?
I actually stuck here
I found trouble to factorize h’(x)
simplest way is to factorise out -12x
and then it should be a way simpler binomial
but also you can observe that x = -1 is a factor ffrom looking at it
are you guys familiar with the method that I used to factorize it.
removing -12x should give you x^2 -2x-3
sub x = 1 right
the method that I used to divide h'(x) by x+1
and it doesn't equal 0 so not factor
yes.
that's what baffling me
well yeah cos you subbed in x = 1 which is (x-1) not (x+1)
and x = -1 or (x+1) is the factor
I see.
thank you for pointing out the error.
let me try it again
all g
After complete the factorization of h'(x)
we should be able to draw the graph of h'(x)
yes
personally I avoided graphing and just solved using the concavity given by second derivative though.
also note that because the original function is -x^4 it will go off to negative infinity instead of infinity so we will have a non-infinite absolute max
which you might have already surmised already
I found that the possible absolute maximums occur at x=0 and x=-3
Am I right
I got points of inflection at 0,1 and 3 with only 3 being a local max
and subbing in x = 3 gives height of 135
how should I interpret the graph?
How do i know where the extremes occur?
from the graph
the first derivative graph tells you wehre gradient is increasing or decreasing
with your intercepts being where gradient = 0 or your stationary points
you can see that at x = -3, as you pass the point your gradient is negative. This means that you will be at a local max as gradient will go from increasing --> stat point --> decreasing
same for x = 0

Can anyone verify b
Does the speed that the boat is moving downstream affect the time it takes for it to cross the river? (rhetorical question)
Uhh idk how to respond to that but I’m still confused lol
Okay how'd you calculate the answer in b
Sorry I think it looks pretty close to what I got
Uhh yk how the boat travels 13ms^-1 and at an angle of 69 degrees?
I don't like where this is going lol
Seems like it
So if the river was flowing faster the boat would take the same time to cross the river right? It would just finish further downstream
Since the crossing time only depends on the speed in the direction of the shore which is perpendicular to the direction of the river's flow
So if the river wasn't moving at all the boat would cross in the same time
Oh
In the case of zero river velocity then the answer is pretty simple right?
Yea I get it
Noice
So it would just be 169/12?
Yes!

Any idea on this ? I already figured out by some symmetry that if k is not a multiple of 4 then s_{n,k} = 0. Otherwise I've been trying to describe the underlying set to no avail...

Hmmm
Seems like we have 1 too many unknowns here
I cant just sub in one of the points because im missing the x coordinate of the centre and the radius
So we need to use the fact that I have 2 points on the line to get one of those unknowns
And im not really sure how to do that...
A circle is defined by three real numbers, x,y, coordinates of the centre and the radius
I guess the distance between the 2 points and the radius is the same? So its an isoceles or however you spell it
there are infinitely many circles that pass through those two points and their centers lie on one line
but since the centre is on the x-axis it now only has 2 variables
the intersection of that line and the x-axis is your center
Ok I understand you both but I still dont see the next step sry
find the line i am talking about
the line is a normal to the line AB that goes through the midpoint of AB
let the centre be on point O(x,0) and use formula for distances
Oh I see
use pythagoreom and set them equal to eachother
Ok I think I know how to solve using that
Thank you so much everyone!

Hmm I thought I knew how to do it but I got the wrong answer and I dont know what I did wrong
First I used the distance formula like you said to find the radius
Using points (1, 2) and (x, 0) I got a radius sqrt(x^2 - 4x + 5)
I then put the point on the circle (1, 2), centre of the circle (x, 0) and the radius of the circle (squared) x^2 - 4x + 5 into the circle formula (x - x1)^2 + (y - y1)^2 = r^2
That gave me this
With the x coordinate of the centre of the circle being the only unknown
But it gave me the solution x = 0, I was supposed to get x = 17 according to the answer sheet...
Ohhh I see my error I just made a mistake with my algebra
😅

Oops forgot the actual question 💀
Centre of the circle is (17, 0) from part A but I dont think thats important
Is there any way to do this other than getting the derivative of the circle? Cause that only gets 1 half of the circle or something right? Im not too familiar with that method...
Whats that sry
How?
When you take the square root you get two function solutions
and inplicitly differentiation means not solving for y in order to diff.
for example: y² = x
can be differentiated implicitly
2y * dy/dx = 1
dy/dx = 1/2y
(If you really want to avoid differentiating, another way would be to consider a general line going through (0,0), so y=kx, and plug that into the circle equation.
You want to find the values of k that ensure the (quadratic) equation you're left with has a single root.)
You want to find the values of k that ensure the (quadratic) equation you're left with has a single root
Why sry?
Why are you apologizing btw
Idk sometimes people get annoyed with me for asking questions or act like im bothering them
I dont wanna bother anyone
Nw! Hum, tangents to a circle only touch it once, so if it had more than one root, the line wouldn't be tangent to the circle, since it would intersect it twice.
Ahhh ok I see
So what from y=kx do i actually sub into the circle equation and where?
kx for the y coordinate?
Yes exactly
Keep it like that. If you expand everything and gather like terms (k is constant), you should have a quadratic equation in x
But k is the other unknown? How can i solve?
x is unknown, but you don't want to solve for it.
You want to solve for the value of k that yields a single solution to the quadratic equation. This you can check using the discriminant.
Hmm I dont really understand yet but I will just get started and see where I get stuck
Yeah it might be clearer once you get the equation set in the form
Ax^2 + Bx +C = 0
(x - 1)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 5
(x - 1)^2 + (kx - 2)^2 = 5
x^2 - 2x + 1 + k^2x^2 - 4kx + 4 = 5
x^2 - 2x + k^2x^2 - 4kx = 0
x(x - 2 + k^2x - 4k) = 0
So already we have 2 solutions no?
Or do we just need to make sure (x - 2 + k^2x - 4k) also equals 0
Yeah you can do it that way and ensure that the root of this is x=0.
The other way is to group terms together and use the discriminant, but I think your method is easier, since now you just need to plug in x=0 and solve for k.
Which square root tho sry? And am I solving for x or for k?
Ohhhh
I can just plug x=0 straight into this?
((0) - 2 + k^2(0) - 4k) = 0 ?
Yeah well just in the right factor, since we already know the x factor out front yields a root at 0
Yes this exactly
Ok I see
So the slope is -1/2
Then I can get the equation of the line easily
Alright I get it now
Good work
Just so I know, did this only work because the y intercept is 0?
Or could this method work with a point that isnt at the origin
It would work with any point, you would just have to write the equation of the line accordingly for a line that goes through that point.
It's quite interesting indeed

I have angle BAC
but how do I know if the length I use is 12 m or 10 m
are you stuck on (b)?
yeah
well Its just this I dont get
I gotta work out r to use l + 2r

Find all the suits of integer such as $u_n \mid 2^{u_{n+1}}-1$
Gamma
I see that u_n is odd
then 2 and u_n are coprime
I think I should use multiplicative order or fermat/euler theoreme but I don't see how
what do you mean by suits?
a sequence
I imagine this problem has something to do with the property that 2^x - 1 is a factor of 2^{xy} - 1 for x,y naturals.
that's the original question, I just translated it
I'll search with that hint
can u help? I'm stuck
do you manage to see the property I mentioned?
I don't see how I can use it tbh
Ah I see !
ku_n= ...
ku_n+1=2^(un+2)-1
ku_n divides 2^(ku_n+1)-1
And k u_n+1=2^u_(n+1)-1

Hey ive tried graphing this and i dont know how
If someone could just walk through how they would do it that would be great
I dont need you to ask me questions just explain your step by step process
start from basics
plot sinx
then sin(x+pi/4)
then sin3(x+pi/4)
then 2*sin3(x+pi/4)
do you know what a sinusoidal function is and what does each component convey?
The curve just shifts, then it becomes higher frequency, then higher amplitude in those steps
what i could do is to bring the 3 in the parentheses, and identify ||the amplitude, the angle frequency and the intial phase||
ok i have one question how do i plot sin(x + pi/4)
plotting sin(x+3pi/4) is more useful
because you just need to relabel the axes at the end
Closed by @wheat temple

...?
.reopen
✅
how do I know where it intersects the axis
which axis?
both
a sinusoidal function either intersects the horizontal axis at infinite points, or never intersects at all
why would you want to do so?
were my explanation not clear enough?
the answer for the question has it plotted at a specific place
as for the vertical axis, well what do you think?
i’m just confused why they chose that one area of the graph to plot
one intersection
which area?
usually the function is plotted in the domain of 0 to some arbitrary numbers, like 10 or 15
either way, have you completed the original question yet? can you show your work?
seems like an error on their part
hmm
it’s alright i will ask my teacher tomorrow
it’s 1am i am not thinking right
thanks for helping

help please 😭 idk where to get started
So its defined on the integers, lets say between 1 and 3
What do you think, can you graph it as a one line, without jumping ?
Or would it be multiple points with no line joining them ?
@long sorrel Has your question been resolved?
woudnt it be -1 and 3?
Its an exemple
Take the integers you want

Hey all, first time poster. I'm self studying mathematics and currently on going a course about algebra. I have a exercise that requires me to solve for x. I have the equation and my solution posted below(as a picture). Any help appreciated!
what seems to be the issue?
dividing by x+1 is risky business
What concerns me is that should i treat a - 1 as one, i.e wrapping it inside parenthesis. With my solution i just moved -1 to right side and left the a on the other side
youd be better off using the quadratic formula if youre familiar
i'd do x^2 +(a)x+(a-1) = 0
just wrap a - 1 up as a single constant, maybe call it p if you want, and then just quadratic formula
and remember that you're not allowed to divide by something if that something is...
I am familiar with it, i actually considered it but couldn't manage to apply it since there is this a variable
just because the a is also an unknown doesn't mean you can't solve for x using the formula
you'd just get x in terms of a
it doesn't really matter, just get x in terms of a
So the correct approach would be to plug it into quadratic formula as -> b=a, c=a-1, a=1?
yup
so is my approach completely wrong here? I did plug x = -a+1 back into original equation(its not shown in the picture tho)
its just that when you divided by x+1, you assumed that x+1 is never 0, this isnt necessarily true
yep
in case i had stated the domain to be x != -1 would it had made a difference?
yeah, then nothing you did was wrong
there are two solutions
the one you got
and x=-1
ok, thanks! I think it was meant to be done this way then. I'm trying to plug it into quadratic formula but its getting awfully complicated(atleast for me)
just take it slow, youll get used to these things in time
its looking like this currently with the quadratic formula
woops, thanks
consider how you could factorise the expression inside the root
i see!
many thanks, i think i will be going with quadratic formulate approach after all!
could you guide me with one other exercise as well?
so the assigment goes like: "Find a value for constant c which can be used to reduce equation f(x)". So the idea is to factorize the equation. I got the right answer but the method was some what sketchy.
@dawn crest Has your question been resolved?
the only issue is your actual value of c is -30
when you wrote (x+3)(3x+c) you created a new c, different from the original
original c=3*new c
right, should have picked a different variable for that. However is there a more mathematical way to solve this? Like utilizing x-intercept points of the 3x^2-x, or the vertex x-coordinate of 3x^2-x
if we assume (x+3) is a factor of 3x^2-x+c=0
then if i sub in -3 i should get 0
so 3(9)-(-3)+c=0
27+3+c=0 c=-30
is perhaps more straight to the point
youd still have to factorise after though
before you could cancel
the way you went about it was actually quite nice though
god damnit, im an idiot. Took me like 2 hours to solve that. I will definitely use the 3(9)-(-3)+c=0 method you mentioned, that's way more cleanier. Thanks a lot!
no worries
youre not an idiot though
you still got the answer in a correct method besides the little blip
thanks sensei. Really appreciate your help, i gotta be going now tho. See you later ✌️

how can one solve this
Id say introduce the lengths around as unknown and that should just be a system to solve 🤔 after all you just care about the length of the 72 rectangle and the height of the 128 rectangle 🤔 wait a sec
didnt you ask this that day?
yea
i sort of ignored this problem cuz i was stuck
now im back at it and still am confused
make the triangles into rectangles and then find areas in terms of common lengths and breadths
it just gives me x=x
what method did you use?
i took the height of the rectangle and triangle as x
l as length of rectangle
b as base of triangle
hence b*x=96
hence l*x=36
hence 2l=3b
length of which rectangle?
the top left
what about height of bottom rectangle and triangle?
didnt give value to them
youd need that to find the area too

Hello, I would like some help and understand how to do this.
I have an economics question and it is asking me to differentiate (First Order Condition FOC) the profit formula.
This isn’t an exam question or homework, it is just tutorial questions. I have the answer but I don’t know how to get to the answer.
@past star Has your question been resolved?
you are pretty much done i think
we want to maximise pi with respect to q1
so if we solve the last line for q1, we get the value of q1 when q2 is given such that pi will be maximised
this is it visually. the equation 1-3q1-q2=0 is the straight plain. so given q2, the plain gives us q1. and the value of pi at that (q1,q2) will be the max
Thank you for the answer. I think my question was worded poorly…
What I wanted to ask was how do I, step by step, differentiate the Pi1 equation (after expanding it multiplying it by q1)
though the notation and implication here is definitely not always clear when talking about partial derivatives
i think this video shows that quite well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mICbKwwHziI&t=517s
The notation for partial derivatives have an inherent ambiguity. In this video, we aim to propose two resolutions to tackle this ambiguity and explore the advantages and drawbacks of each approach.

What am I doing wrong from the $$M_x/M$$ part
Nathan
It should be 10/33
It’s a center of mass problem but density is constant so you’ll see I just ignored it
@fervent hatch Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Hello
may I ask how you arrived at your Mx equation?
because the calculations look correct
Wdym
It’s written there
Plug my integral into a calculator and it agrees
I genuinely don’t know how I’m wrong
@tough rapids
mb
uh lemme see
I'm taking physics this coming year, so my knowledge of center of mass is very limited
but I was just wondering how you got the integral
cause, as you said, if you plug it into a calculator it checks out
so it probably has to be a problem surrounding the original integral
Well okay
So he dx and the x^4-x^5 gets the area
Density times the area would get the mass but since the density is constant it will cancel later on
The other bit is writing the y position of the center of mass of the given strip in terms of x
So just dividing it by two since the center of a rectangle is the middle
Yes the density which is irrelevant times the area will be mass here
It’s a 2d region
ah ok
yeah so I don’t see how my integral is wrong
then idrk, you might have to consult someone more versed in physics
if it were four months later I would be able to help 😅 cause I would have learned it by then
Calculus 1
this is the first unit of calculus 2 so that’s probably why you’ll learn it when school starts again
yeah probably
But I mean the integral is cal 1 it’s just the application you gotta learn

can someone help me this please
<@&286206848099549185>
im not familar with what that is?
Yes or no
No i mean
It's a part of linear programming?
Or it's a simple case of maxima minima
Ya ok I saw it now it's maxima minima
Oh
I get it
It's the application of calculus part
Revenue function =Price x No right ?
is the answer $4.64?
,w -2*1500x+12500=0
?
,calc 25/6
Result:
4.1666666666667
yes
idk
is there any way you can check?
Give me context
Is this some profit formula
Also it says maximize
So i assume you will need differentiation at some point
P(x) = R(x) - C(x), where P(x) is profit, R(x) is revenue, and C(x) is cost
,w -3000(p-4.64167) = 0

P(A)=0.4
P(AUB) 0.7
A and B are independent
P(B)=?
what does it mean for two events to be independent?
that’s not it
that’s disjoint/mutually exclusive events
but answer is 0.5
not independent events
intersection null?
no
again that’s the definition of mutually exclusive or disjoint events
they said it’s independent here
so what should I do
can you check your notes for what “condition” you have for independent events?
I'll see wait
$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$
Heartuary


it’s P(A|B) = P(A)
But also tbh not what i’m looking for, but you can derive it from here
anyway what i wanted you to say was
oh yes
P(A n B) = P(A) * P(B)
which can also follow from here using the definition of “conditional probability”
yes if they independent then multiplication give intersection
yes now u can use that
here
yes this topic is under conditional probability
so if A and B and independent then AÛB will exist
$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - \underbrace{P(A) P(B)}_{P(A \cap B)}$
!Kiz__
not sure what that’s supposed to mean

What's "trend"?
trend is behaviour of the y values dependent on x values in relation to commonly known functions
so trends can be exponentially increasing, logarithmically increasing, quadratically increasing and so on
since e^x, log x, x^2 are well known functions and considered to be good enough approximations for many functions

A bit confused on what happened here between the encircled steps
oh , they just decomposed the fraction
(1+x+x^2)/x^2 = 1/x^2 + x/x^2 +x^2/x^2
which is equal to
x^-2+x^-1+1

How do i simplify this one?
your last step is wrong
Can you explain
only the -2 should be multiplied to the fraction
I have a question
When do we only put 1 as a denominator?
When it's not multiplication?
whenever you feel like
putting /1 makes absolutely no change to the value of an expression
it may help people multiply fractions, you can explicitly write it if you want but it is completely unnecessary
the issue with the way you did it is that
(1-2) isn't actually being multiplied to 1/x
by putting /1 over that entire component, you are essentially putting() around the 1-2
which changes the value of the expression
you are however allowed to do
$$1 - \frac21 \br{\frac 1x}$$
if you want
ℝαμΩℕωⅤ
Putting 1 still arrives to the same answer but a longer solution?
if you do it properly yes
whether you do it usually depends on how you are taught to multiply fractions

find the greatest common divisor of 53667 and 25527 using euclids algorithm
53667 = 25527 * 2 + 2613
25527 = 2613 * 9 + 2010
2613 = 2010 * 1 + 603
2010 = 603 * 3 + 201
603 = 201 * 3 + 0
Why do we divide by 2 on the first number and why do we divided by 9 on the second number
oh why
that's literally euclid algorithm
oh
if you wanna find gcd of a and b
you divide the first by the second number
wow
take remainder r'
r/r'
etc...
until remainder is 0
and gcd is last non-zero number
you are very helpful thank you
how would you determine the gcd of 3 numbers
a,b,c
gcd (a,b) = d
and then you do gcd(d,c)
gcd (a,b,c) = gcd (d,c)
okay
i can also do then gcd(b,c)=d to do gcd(a,d)
?
and get the same number
thank you

yes
✅
there are two parts to this
gcd(a,b) = 1 and lcm(a,b) = ab when a and b are coprime
and gcd(kc,kd) = k*gcd(c,d), lcm(kc,kd) = k*lcm(c,d)
you can just google lcm times gcd

ion get it still
@lean otter Has your question been resolved?
ye I did label em
Show
I can't click a pic rn but thisis what my teacher had sent me earlier
I can't read that
Anyway it seems pretty useless to label the points
Does the question specify that the main figure is a parallelogram?
I already found the solution for this online
But
:(
Ion get it
Then your question should be about that
This is the question
What don't you get?
If that's the whole question then there is no exact solution and you can only try measuring the area
If you can assume that it's a parallelogram, then there is a pretty easy solution, but really the question should state that

worked on this problem a bit earlier I got 12
as it was the lowest possibility because any other source of numbers is just divisible by it
What's your question?
8 seems like it can be a factor too
right but we want the highest divisible factor
and so far it seems 12
I just need a scientific way of proving this
yea so with 8 and 12 you get 24
or matematical way
thats what i meant to say
ok but doesnt it have to be a multiple of n
and if n is 24 how does d=4,c=3,b=2,a=1 work
You have four integers. Two of them are necessarily separated by a multiple of 3. Additionally, two pairs of them are necessarily separated by a multiple of 2. That gives you 12 as a lower bound
wait no mb
yeah, it gotta be 12
But I still need a mathematical way of always proving its 12
But I like the idea of seperation as it will always be a multiple of 3 and two multiples of 2
express a, b, c, d as mod p^n numbers and prove that for mod p^n+1 it doesnt work
Like it needs to be based off a formula and something that works everytime and it needs to be achieved by doing that not just guessing and checking
This is not "guessing and checking"
Ok now I see that
cause I tried with a couple more cases and it worked
so I do think its 12 because of the seperation
no like i meant chose a random set of numbers
yeah thats what i did so I came to the conclusion that your answer is right
with the logic you have making sense
because c-a is a multiple of 2 d-a is a multiple of 3 and d-b is a multiple of 12
that multipled together always equals 12 minimum
You have four integers a,b,c,d
All integers are of one of three forms: 3k, 3k+1, 3k+2
ok
So at least two among a,b,c,d have the same form
Hence their difference is a multiple of 3
ok
Additionally, all integers are of one of two forms: 2k and 2k+1
Among a,b,c, at least two have the same form
ok
If you consider d as well, either it has a different form but then a,b,c all have the same form (and so you get three differences that are multiples of 2), or it has the same form as at least one of a,b,c, and so you get yet another difference that is a multiple of 2
ok
In total, you have a difference that is a multiple of 3, and two differences that are multiples of 2
That means the product of all differences is a multiple of 12
ooh so thats how we establised this conclusion
that makes more sense now that product is a multiple of 12 for the difference
Thank you for the explanation

does this multiply the determinant's size by 3?
i don't know what rotating by pi/3 is
is that just the angle of rotation or does it stretch or squash it?
if the former, then it would be same determinant
that is the angle of rotation; you see these rotation matrices very often in dynamics courses that give you your 'x' vector expressed in a different coordinate system
ok since rotation doesn't increase or decrease the area of T, it's the same determinant right?
yes, because the determinant of A is just 1

Hi
Can you help me with two questions?
I answered one just need it to be reviewed to see if I did it wrong
And the second question I'm not sure what equation to use to solve
First Question ^
2
Shade the region that's represented by these?
"Graph the solution set to the following system of inequalities." I think so
For that one, your second (in)equation is 3 - 6x^2, but it looks like you read it as 3 - 6x? (at which point, even then, that would need to be steeper)
So there should be two boundary parabolas you'd want right?
Yes
(anyways, as for this, you want your total mass of coffee, made of those two blends, to be 20lb, but you want the price to work out to $6.30 per lb...)
Is there an equation to follow I've looked online and couldn't find one
For the second one? we can work through it together if you want?
Yes for the coffee one
Please it's a little confusing ^^'
I just don't know what steps to take
Alright, we'll go step by step, most of these are similar, but you want to create and then solve a set of simultaneous equations, from effectively two pieces of information that's in the question
So, a hopefully easy question, if I charge $6.30/lb, and you want 20lbs, how much will you have to pay?
126?
Yep 
Phew LOL
So, now, I can rephrase this a tiny bit, let's call the amount of the Kenyan blend be k, and the other one be s
We want here, to rephrase this slightly:
- that the total mass of the new blend you make to be 20lb
- to be able to charge $126 for it, given the Kenyan one is $7 per lb and that the other one is $6/lb
Do you think that gives you any idea as to how to create either equations for them? (the $126 comes from the fact you're charging $6.30 for it, but are making 20lbs of it)
7k+6s=20?
7k+6s=126?
7k+6s timss (20 -6.30)=126?
7k+6s *(20-x)=126?
7k+6(20-x)=126?
Idk I'm trying haha ^^''
Okay 😂
But for the first one, remember that k is the mass of Kenyan coffee in lbs, the s is mass the other coffee (I just know I'm gonna spell it wrong
), and you want the mass of both coffees combines to be 20lbs 
So wouldn't it be 7 times 2 and 6 times 1
126÷14=9 and 126÷6=21?
So 9 of Kenya and 21 of S?
Not quite like that, waaaiitttt, let's slow it down a tiny bit 
Another new question, note that the price of the coffee doesn't really matter that much for this one, but
If I use a mass of k pounds for the Kenyan coffee, and a mass of s pounds of the other one, how much in total, in terms of k and s, will my new coffee weigh?
13?
Not quite, that would be the case if I used 7lbs Kenyan and 6lbs respectively, but that isn't the case, rather it was k lbs of the Kenyan and s lbs of the other, soooooo? 
Divide? :0
Remember that the 7 and 6 are the cost in dollars for each lb, so if you used 2lbs, you'd charge $14 and $12 respectively, same that 5lbs is $35 and $30
Nooo
not quite-
Ohh
Anyways, what was your thought process to get this number you thought before? What was the idea?
For 13 I just added for, 9 and 21 I divided ^^'
Awwww 
Anyways, for the mass equation we'd find, we wanted as before to find the total mass of both the k pounds of Kenyan coffee, and the s pounds of the other coffee, to work out to 20 pounds...
Of course it probably is a massive spoiler as it is, that you want to take the k pounds of the Kenyan coffee, and then add the s pounds of the other coffee to it 
For which, I'll let you have that another equation is k + s = 20 to you for free 
Haha thank you!
So anyways, you then want to solve k + s = 20 and 7k + 6s = 126
Hopefully doing that will be fine? 
Knowing me and my me it might be a mess thank you
your me
but awwww, as long as you know the process for it at least?
So divide by 7 get 18 and input it?
Not quite
have you done simeultaneous equations before?
Wait
Hm
Nope if I have I forgot ^^'
What would be the steps to take if not division
K=6 and s=14?
,w k + s = 20, 7k + 6s = 126
Yay 😁 thank you so much for the help forgive me for my dumbness
Awwwww, you're fine, don't worry about it 
Anyways, for the first plotting one, are you fine with that one? that you wanna plot the other parabola and work with that one?
Could you help with it?
So I misplaced the points?
Sorry it confuses me as well haha
Sure
and yep, you plotted x^2 - 4 correctly, but not 3 - 6x^2
You know how to plot the second one, right?
It isn't linear, or a line 
If I rewrite it a tiny bit, do you know how to plot -6x^2 + 3?
That one is a bit more "interesting"
Ohhhh you can choose points to put in
in which case, not quite these 
Okay ^^
If you choose x = ±2, then you put that into -6x^2 + 3, and work out what it becomes
Which isn't 6, but 21 for both 
Looks much better
think that should be fine 
Okay thank you so much for being patient and helping me 😄 you're awesome!
Awwww
thank yooooouuu
