I wouldn't take the intervals

Intervals Frequency
10-19 4
20-29 7
30-39 4
40-49 6
50-59 2

viscid monolith
#

If i were to represent it, i'd say they are "groups"

glass edge
#

so

#

our median is 23+1/2 =12

#

12th position

viscid monolith
#

yup

glass edge
#

30-39?

viscid monolith
#

uhhh

glass edge
#

but what if it were even

viscid monolith
#

4 + 7 = 11

#

12 th term yes

#

30-39

glass edge
#

what if the sum of the frequencies were 24

#

24+1/2

#

25/2

#

12.5

#

which..

#

once again lies in the 30-39 interval?

viscid monolith
#

Also 24 is even

#

you would just take 24/2

#

12th position

#

but it is not exactly the middle

#

And if the 12th and 13th position is within the same group you're fine

#

If they are not in the same group, you have an issue

#

Imagine the median lies between the group of students who take bus vs group of students who takes the train

#

How will your median exist between bus and train commutes?

"There are 8 men and 4 women. A team of 4 must atleast have 2 in it. How many ways are there to do this?"The answer is 201

novel iron
#

My attempt: there are C(4,2) ways to choose 2 women from the woman's group

#

Now we have atleast 2 women

#

We now have 10 total people that we can choose from, out of which, we want to pick 2

quasi bison
#

a team of 4 must have at least 2 who in it

novel iron
#

So, C(4,2)*C(10,2) = 270

quasi bison
#

brb but i have an explanation for why your logic's wrong

novel iron
novel iron
quasi bison
#

There are 8 men and 4 women. A team of 4 must atleast have 2 in it.
you accidentally the word "women" here.

#

anyway what you've got is the number of ways to do the following:

choose 2 women, give them gold stars, and then pick 2 more people to go on your team.

#

i'm going to name the women Alice, Barbara, Cheryl and Diana, and the men Eric, Fred, George, Harry, Ivan, Jonah, Kevin and Larry

with your counting method, you count the following two teams:

{Alice*, Barbara*, Diana, Eric}
{Alice*, Diana*, Barbara, Eric}

as two different teams, when in fact they're the exact same

#

after all, if someone else does this choice, and sends you the team consisting of Alice, Barbara, Diana and Eric, how can you tell which of the women were "selected first"?

#

(you can't.)

novel iron
#

I tried thinking about how to modify my approach to avoid this problem but I do not think I can use the approach (multipication principle)

quasi bison
#

you need to count subtractively

novel iron
#

yep

#

aghhh

#

thank you Ann for the explanation

#

hope you have a nice day : )

shell horizon
#

can someone explain this move (linear transformations)

obsidian oracle
#

the set {x+1,x-1,x^2+2x} is a basis of R_2[X]

#

So every polynomial in there must be a linear combination of those 3 vectors

#

The question is, which one?

#

So you take f(x) = a + bx + cx^2, and you try to express it as a linear combination of x+1, x-1, and x^2+2x

#

the trick lies in seeing that (x+1) - (x-1) = 2, so a = a * ((x+1)-(x-1))/2

#

and similar trick with (x+1) + (x-1) = 2x

#

Otherwise, you can always try to solve a system of equations

#

Suppose $a+bx + cx^2 = A(x-1) + B(x+1) + C(x^2+2x)$

Hello, could someone check if this proof looks good please?

\begin{Theorem}
Suppose $A$ and $B$ are sets, with universal set $U$. Then, $A \setminus B = A \cap B^c$.
\end{Theorem}

\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \setminus B \subseteq A \cap B^c$.
Let $x \in A \setminus B$.
Then, by the definition of the substraction, we have that $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$.
So, by the definition of the complement of complement on $B$, $x \in B^c$.
Then $x \in A$ and $x \in B^c$, thus, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in A \cap B^c$.
Since $x \in A \setminus B$ implies $x \in A \cap B^c$, by definition of subset, 
we have that $A \setminus B \subseteq A \cap B^c$.

Next, we prove that $A \cap B^c \subseteq A \setminus B$.
Let $x \in A \cap B^c$.
Then, by the definition of the intersection, we have that $x \in A$ and $x \in B^c$.
So, by the definition of the complement on $B$, $x \notin B$.
Then $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, thus, by definition of the substraction, $x \in A \setminus B$.
Since $x \in A \cap B^c$ implies $x \in A \setminus B$, by the definition of subset,
we have that $A \cap B^c \subseteq x \in A \setminus B$.

We proved that $A \setminus B \subseteq A \cap B^c$ and $A \cap B^c \subseteq x \in A \setminus B$,
therefore $A \setminus B = A \cap B^c$.

\begin{Definition}[Subset of a set]
    Suppose $A$ and $B$ are sets. If every element in $A$ is also an element of $B$, then $A$ is a \emph{subset} of $B$, which is denoted $A \subseteq B$.
\end{Definition}

\begin{Definition}[Intersection of sets]
    The \emph{intersection} of sets $A$ and $B$ is the set $A \cap B = \{ x : x \in A \text{ and } x \in B\}$.
\end{Definition}

\begin{Definition}[Substraction of sets]
    The \emph{substraction} of $B$ from $A$ is the set $A \setminus B = \{ x : x \in A \text{ and } x \notin B\}$.
\end{Definition}

\begin{Definition}[Universal set and complement]
Suppose $A$ and $U$ are sets.
If $A \subseteq U$, then $U$ is called the \emph{universal set} of $A$.
The \emph{complement} of $A$ in $U$ is $A^c = U \ A$.

if you are writing more words than necessary deliberately for now just to get the hang of it then its alright

#

otherwise you could've written something like:\$x\in A\setminus B\iff x\in A$ and $x\notin B\iff x\in A$ and $x\in B^c\iff x\in A\cap B^c$\ and you would be done like that

#

although note that I am not saying using words is bad or using only symbols is great

#

what I am saying is that sometimes you dont need much words, and instead you can write more symbols to make a neat short proof

#

but other times you cant just use symbols, you would have to also use words

#

it depends on what you are trying to prove

#

but anyways good work, your proof is perfectly fine

#

I just felt like it might be good to point this out at this stage

i have a feeling this is something about second differences, right? but im not too sure how to use it

glass carbon
#

Notice that e.g. 45-23 = 67 - 45 = 89 - 67

#

so the difference in increments in x is constant

#

you can use this to write the condition for increments in y

Show that the set of differentiable real-valued functions 𝑓 on the interval
(−4, 4) such that 𝑓′(−1) = 3 𝑓 (2) is a subspace of 𝐑^(−4, 4)

quick wraith
#

Proving closure under addition given that condition

light shoal
#

how far did you get?

quick wraith
#

maybe more

#

Idk

light shoal
#

do you understand what you need to show?

quick wraith
light shoal
#

(for closure under addition)

#

suppose f and g are two such functions

#

you need to show that f+g is also such a function, which means you need to show:

  1. f+g is differentiable
  2. (f+g)'(-1) = 3(f+g)(2)
#

showing part 2 basically just involves identifying what (f+g)'(-1) and (f+g)(2) mean

quick wraith
#

I don't understand how functions can map to any number anything

#

I can make f(x) map to a zero real number

light shoal
#

well f and g both take a number in (-4,4) and return a number, right?

quick wraith
#

yes

#

It is not specified which

#

and I don't get that

light shoal
#

yea that's ok

#

if you like i can explain how to do a similar problem

#

then you can use the same ideas here

quick wraith
#

Yeah

#

That could be very helpful

light shoal
#

ok, suppose we're working with differentiable real-valued functions on (-4,4) like in your problem
and specifically the ones that satisfy f'(1) = f'(2)

#

(changed to derivatives to make it more interesting)

#

suppose f and g are two such functions

#

that means f and g are differentiable, and f'(1) = f'(2), and g'(1) = g'(2)

#

you want to show that the sum function, f+g, also has this property

#

the fact that f+g is differentiable is a basic result from calculus

#

in particular, sum of two differentiable functions is differentiable, and (f+g)'(x) = f'(x) + g'(x)

#

so, in particular if we plug in x = 1, we get

#

(f+g)'(1) = f'(1) + g'(1)

#

so far this is just using calculus results

#

now we use the fact that f'(1) = f'(2) and g'(1) = g'(2)

#

so (f+g)'(1) = f'(2) + g'(2)

#

and now use the calculus result again on the right hand side:

#

f'(2) + g'(2) = (f+g)'(2)

#

so tying it all together, you conclude that
(f+g)'(1) = (f+g)'(2)

quick wraith
light shoal
#

no, not in general

quick wraith
light shoal
#

no, that's also not true in general

#

all you know is that f'(1) = f'(2) and g'(1) = g'(2)

quick wraith
#

I mean

#

@light shoal, f can be anything that is differentiable and where f'(1) = f'(2). I should be able to get anything within R, as long as it satisfies what I just mentioned

#

Okay

#

Thank you

#

Can you verify my scalar multiplication proof for this example?

light shoal
quick wraith
#

Where can I see the proof on the sum of differentiability

#

is differentiable

light shoal
#

check a calculus book

#

in this context they probably don't expect you to prove that, just to know it as background knowledge

quick wraith
#

let c be any real number and f be an element of the set just mentioned

light shoal
quick wraith
#

we prove that c times f'(1) = c times f'(2)

quick wraith
#

thanks

Uhm help please. How do I find the cosine and sine of the circle?

hard crest
#

it's largely memorisation and special triangles

#

are you familiar with 45-45-90 and 30-60-90 triangles?

hard crest
#

ok great, so they didn't mark the angles which is weird, but the marks should be at 0, 30º, 45º, 60º, and 90º; and then continuing like that (so the next one would be 120º, 135º, etc)

agile trench
#

But would I be able to see the cosine sine in a t1 84 calculator?

hard crest
#

you don't need a calculator for this

#

since you can use the ratio of side lengths in a 30-60-90 triangle

#

remembering that sine = opp / hyp

agile trench
hard crest
#

yep!

#

and your adjacent will always be on the horizontal axis, and your opposite will always be the vertical component

hard crest
#

and yeah for your answers they should be in radical form, not like decimal or whatever

#

that is, $\f{\s2}2$ is a totally reasonable answer 😅

flat frigateBOT
#

hayliänus austrǎlis

hard crest
#

none of this 0.7073213402... nonsense

agile trench
#

Is the sine 30/60? Or 60/30?

hard crest
#

mmm neither

#

it's the side lengths

#

remember the 1-√3-2 stuff?

agile trench
hard crest
#

you said you were familiar with 30-60-90 triangles. what do you know about them?

agile trench
hard crest
#

can you label the sides with their lengths? same for 45-45-90

agile trench
#

Is this correct?????

hard crest
#

no

#

you've labeled the sides with what look like angle measurements?

wind python
#

maybe find h

#

the red triangle is equilateral

hard crest
#

yeah if we take the 30-60-90 triangle and flip it on itself we get an equilateral triangle

agile trench
hard crest
#

pythagorean theorem

wind python
agile trench
wind python
#

do you remember what triangles that works on

agile trench
wind python
#

yeah so they always have this thing

#

do you remember how to label a b c in the diagram of a right triangle for a^2 + b^2 = c^2?

agile trench
wind python
#

right a and b are either leg (which doesn't matter just keep it organized)

agile trench
#

Ok

wind python
#

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

#

alright

#

back to the 30-60-90

#

similar problem

#

find h

agile trench
#

2 is the hypotenuse right?

wind python
#

yes the matchup is a -> h, b -> 1, c -> 2

#

we can change a^2 + b^2 = c^2
into h^2 + 1^2 = 2^2

agile trench
#

I'm getting either h = 3 or square root 3

wind python
#

check your work and convince yourself it's root 3

agile trench
#

I convinced myself by rooting h² and 3 to cancel the ². And I got root 3

wind python
#

alright we have a 30-60-90 triangle

#

it has hypotenuse=2 which does not fit the unit circle

#

a similar triangle which has hypotenuse=1 tells us about the unit circle points

wind python
#

there's the similar triangle

#

just divide all edges in two

#

so now we can get sins and coss for 30 or 60 degrees from from (easy) soh cah on this trangle

agile trench
#

sin is opposite/hypotenuse soo root 3/1?

yes hypotenuse is conveniently 1 the way i set it so the legs just hand over the sins and coss

all you need to do is sanity checking at this point

Hello, could someone check if this proof looks good please?

\begin{Theorem}
Suppose $A$, $B$ and $C$ are sets. Then, $A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
\end{Theorem}

\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Let $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the union, we have that $x \in A$ or $x \in B \cap C$.
And, by the definition of the intersection, $$x \in A \text{ or } (x \in B \text{ and } x \in C).$$
Said differently, 
$$(x \in A \text{ or } x \in B) \text{ and } (x \in A \text{ or } x \in C).$$
Then, by the definition of the union, $x \in A \cup B$ and $x \in A \cup C$.
So, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Since $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$, 
by the definition of the subset, we have that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
A similar case can be made by letting $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ and following the definitions,
leading to $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$, thus $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$.

We showed that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ and $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$,
therefore $A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
\end{proof}

why are you saying First, we prove that ... when you're just stating what you're supposed to prove

flat frigateBOT
#

Mor Bras

severe pond
#

these kinds of proofs are always a bit strange because for example how do you justify the "said differently" part

#

i would just say, if x is in A then x is in A \cup B and x is in A \cup C. otherwise, if x is in B \cap C then x is in B and x is in C so x is in A \cup B and x is in A \cup C

#

relies less on this handwavy "said differently"

after the else, if

#

i would also say you don't have to spell out why this tells us its a subset

#

you can just say hence A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)

#

also the other direction isn't really the same thing

#

like its not a situation where its just a relabeling

#

might want to actually do the work

#

try wording it similar to how i did before with the union

Ok, I'll work on that

First, we prove that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Let $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the union, we have that $x \in A$ or $x \in B \cap C$.
And, by the definition of the intersection, $$x \in A \text{ or } (x \in B \text{ and } x \in C).$$
Now, if $x \in A$, then $x \in A \cup B$ and $x \in A \cup C$.
Else, if $x \in B \cap C$, then $x \in B$ and $x \in C$, thus $x \in A \cup B$ and $x \in A \cup C$.
So, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Since $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$, 
by the definition of the subset, we have that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.

Next, we prove that $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$.
Let $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Then, by the definition of the intersection, $$x \in (A \cup B) \text{ and } x \in (A \cup C).$$
Now, if $x \in A$, then $x \in (A \cup B)$ and $x \in (A \cup C)$.
Otherwise, if $x \in B \cap C$, then $x \in B$ and $x \in C$, so $x \in (A \cup B)$ and $x \in (A \cup C)$.
This means that $x \in A$ or $x \in B \cap C$.
Then, by the definition of the union, $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$.
Since $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ implies $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$, 
by the definition of the subset, we have that $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$.

We showed that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ and $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$,
therefore $A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.

#

hmm

#

not sure i follow from the otherwise bit

#

you're trying to show x is in A \cup (B \cap C)

#

you have x in (A \cup B) and x in (A \cup C)

#

so if x is in A then you're done

#

since x will be in A \cup (B \cap C)

#

the otherwise should be if x is not in A

#

but in (A \cup B) and (A \cup C)

#

do you understand

earnest mirage
#

I followed the same pattern as for the first subset: either x in A, or x in B \cap C, but now I understand what you pointed out. Let me rephrase it in the proof

severe pond
#

no but you just copied what i said without adjusting to the different direction

#

it is not the case now that we assume x is in A \cup (B \cap C)

#

we assume x is in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)

#

and continue from there

#

its clear why if x is in A \cup (B \cap C) then i can just say otherwise after the x in A case

#

because of our definition of being in the union

severe pond
earnest mirage
#
\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Let $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the union, we have that $x \in A$ or $x \in B \cap C$.
And, by the definition of the intersection, $$x \in A \text{ or } (x \in B \text{ and } x \in C).$$
Now, if $x \in A$, then $x \in A \cup B$ and $x \in A \cup C$.
Else, if $x \in B \cap C$, then $x \in B$ and $x \in C$, thus $x \in A \cup B$ and $x \in A \cup C$.
So, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Since $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$, 
by the definition of the subset, we have that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.

Next, we prove that $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$.
Let $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
Then, by the definition of the intersection, $$x \in (A \cup B) \text{ and } x \in (A \cup C).$$
Now, if $x \in A$, then $x \in (A \cup B)$ and $x \in (A \cup C)$.
Otherwise, if $x \notin A$, then it must be $x \in B$ and $x \in C$, 
so $x \in (A \cup B)$ and $x \in (A \cup C)$.
This means that $x \in A$ or $x \in B \cap C$.
Then, by the definition of the union, $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$.
Since $x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ implies $x \in A \cup (B \cap C)$, 
by the definition of the subset, we have that $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$.

We showed that $A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$ and $(A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C) \subseteq A \cup (B \cap C)$,
therefore $A \cup (B \cap C) = (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)$.
\end{proof}

severe pond
#

not quite

#

we already know x is in (A \cup B) and A \cup C

severe pond
#

if its not in A then it must be in B since x is in A \cup B but it also must be in C because x is in A \cup C

#

hence x must be in B and C

#

so x is in B \cap C

#

and thus x is in A \cup (B \cap C)

🤔

#

good except the first sentence you say now if x is in A then x is in (A \cup B) and x is in (A \cup C)

#

you want to show x is in A \cup (B \cap C)

#

so it should be if x is also in A then x is in A \cup (B \cap C)

i mean it would make sense

they did just copy a lot of what i said

#

and seemed shaky on the understanding

#

but didn't want to feel annoying by asking so many seemingly obvious questions

#

i get it

plucky elk
#

Much more annoying to ask some new helper catch up on the entire context from the beginning

#

I get it

earnest mirage
# severe pond i guess you don't trust me

I appreciate the time you took to read the proof, pointing out the errors, correct them and reread the proof. I want a second reader to "approve" the proof in order to be sure that it looks good for more people. If there's no one else interested in reading the proof, I can understand.

severe pond
#

so you don't trust that it's correct

earnest mirage
#

AFIK, the writing of the proof is subjective, so it might look good me and you, but not for others, which is why second opinions are very appreciated.

severe pond
#

proofs are not subjective

#

it is correct or incorrect

only thing that can change is approach or style

#

are you asking for another way to prove this?

solar hazel
#

i have not read it but i don’t like your proof because it looks 3x longer than it needs to be

severe pond
#

it seems like you're just not confident with what i said

astral glacier
astral glacier
#

That's the appropriate length

severe pond
#

yea he adds too many words

solar hazel
#

if i was not on my phone i would write out a short af proof

astral glacier
#

Ehhh that comes with experience

severe pond
#

things like "Since x \in A \cup (B \cap C) implies x \in (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C),
by the definition of the subset, we have that A \cup (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \cup B) \cap (A \cup C)."

cloud hound
#

The short version is the 1st order logic version

astral glacier
#

Let's not shame people for making their proofs explicit when they're starting out

solar hazel
#

the short version is
proof: trivial

warm ocean
#

proof: trust me bro

Can we write instead :-.
for any m≥k , we have xm<x+ ε=x+(-x)=0

x + (-x) < 0 ?

If you meant = 0, then sure

The point is you don't need to bother with a "for any m >= K", you can just use one of them, in this case K

west grail
#

can someone explain how you draw these functions in the coordinate system like this

west grail
#

basically in this case for the area all 3 must be fullfilled

hard crest
#

you know how to draw a line like 2x - 5y - 10 = 0 right

west grail
#

no i haven't done in ages, today first day of relearning calculus, well i started like 2 days ago tbh

#

ok i just looked it up

peak estuary
#

one option is to rearrange it to y=(something)

west grail
#

need to bring it into y =

peak estuary
#

another is to find two points on the line

west grail
peak estuary
#

depending on what you mean by that, yes

west grail
#

well nvm that method sounds more complicated than the other one

#

y >= 2x/5 - 2

#

y > -x -3

#

ok i got the first one

#

dunno how to draw g: y > -x -3

#

or f: x-2 < 0

hard crest
west grail
#

bruh i am in the library hahah flashy anime pictures need to hide screen

#

hahah

west grail
# hard crest

ok i get it when there is a y now but what if there is no y. like x-2 < 0

hard crest
#

oh yeah that's a special case, it's just a vertical line

#

so solve for x instead

#

in that case it would be x < 2

#

so vertical (dashed) line at 2 and shade to the left

west grail
#

so if its -2 you go to the right side and for + 2 you go to the left side?

hard crest
#

no, it's to do with the direction of the < >

#

oh

#

hold on what exactly is your question?

west grail
#

i assume cuz of the -2

#

they drew it through 2

hard crest
#

yes, they started by solving the inequality for x

#

to get x < 2

#

and then shaded all of the points where x is less than (to the left of) 2

west grail
#

ohhh

#

well i'll do another example and see if i can do it this time

#

yup this was another predone example but i did it on my own in my journal and checked and everything was correct

#

the only issue in this case is that h: -3x -y +6 <=0 doesn't even enclose an area

#

so only 2 of the 3 functions are used

#

@peak estuarywhat do you think about this. is the task still solved that way here at 2b)

hard crest
#

imagine if you had a system like { y > 0 ; y > 1 }

#

you also sometimes get systems where there are no solutions

west grail
#

oh good to know

ok wow i didn't expect the circle to give me so much trouble

west grail
#

1a i solved pretty fast

#

but B, C and D of this circle are quite nightmarish

#

what i calculated for B

#

B= (-3i -1)/4

#

ok for D = i get 1/4 i

#

i jsut did *(-2i) top and bottom for that

#

B should theoretically be right and with C i have no idea what to do

#

oh nvm i calculated B wrong cuz they switched up the imaginary part of B with the real one

Hello. Suppose that in a party, the guests clinked their glasses in pairs, and 21 clinks were heard. How many guests are there?
The solution to this exercise, for x guests, is to solve C(x,2) = 21. Why is it C(x,2) ?

languid monolith
#

i cant even picture how the guests clinking their glasses would look

muted sapphire
#

well lets look at 4 people

languid monolith
#

okay

muted sapphire
#

how many clinks will there be

languid monolith
#

does each person clink with all other 3?

muted sapphire
#

no, each person only has 1 drink

languid monolith
#

oh

muted sapphire
#

and you can't clink with more than 1 other person

#

(stupid i know)

languid monolith
#

then with 4 people its 2 clinks

opaque fern
muted sapphire
#

yes

opaque fern
#

order doesnt matter

muted sapphire
#

which is the same as saying

opaque fern
#

u are choosing 2

muted sapphire
#

how many pairs can we choose from 4 people

#

now look back at the problem

#

we know there are 21 clinks

#

so how many pairs can we choose from x people?

#

that'd be C(x,2)

languid monolith
#

hmm

#

but we have one specific choice of pairs dont we?

#

i suck at this lol

#

like, yeah, you can make pairs of x people in many different ways, but in our problem we choose one way to pair them

toxic stratus
#

i think it's just bad wording and you're supposed to assume every pair of guests clinked

languid monolith
#

hm okay

#

i still dont see why its C(x,2) = 21

muted sapphire
#

okay well we now know that with 4 people, we have 2 clinks true?

languid monolith
#

yeah

onyx tiger
languid monolith
#

with 5 there would be one who didnt clink tho

pliant citrus
#

n(n-1)/2 shd be the solution? classic handshake problem isnt it

toxic stratus
#

no no, its every single possible pair

pliant citrus
#

diagonal claculation

pliant citrus
#

okay my bad

toxic stratus
#

so with 3 people A, B, C, it would be
AB
AC
BC

languid monolith
#

huh

toxic stratus
#

its just the bad wording

languid monolith
#

whats a better way to word the problem?

toxic stratus
#

Suppose that in a party, the guests each clinked their glasses with every other guest, and 21 clinks were heard in total. How many guests are there?

languid monolith
#

okay okay

#

thats different than what hylke said earlier

toxic stratus
#

erm

#

well that must have been wrong

muted sapphire
#

the question is really interpretable

toxic stratus
#

theres only one interpretation that leads to the given solution though

languid monolith
#

oh i see

#

okay ill think it through then it should be possible

#

thanks

i can understand that median tending towards the upper/lower part of the box would tell you about the skewness, but what about the box itself to the whisker's ends?

The whiskers may allow you to spot outliers

#

assuming the boxplot was made with the absolute min or max if it is very far from the box it is likely an outlier which you can then calculate

#

this is why some boxplots are made with the whisker drawn as 3rd quartile + 1.5 IQR and outliers as dots

Hello, could someone check if this proof looks good please?

\begin{Theorem}
Suppose $A$, $B$ and $C$ are sets. Then, $A \setminus (B \cap C) = (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
\end{Theorem}

\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
Let $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the subtraction, we have that $x \in A$ and $x \notin B \cap C$.
This means that $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$.
If $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, then $x \in A \setminus B$.
Otherwise, $x \in A$ and $x \notin C$, then $x \in A \setminus C$.
So, we have that $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
Thus, $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
$x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$,
hence $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.\\

Next, we prove that $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
Let $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
By the definition of the union, $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
In both cases, $x \in A$ and either $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$, so $x \notin B \cap C$.
Thus, by the definition of the subtraction, $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
$x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ implies $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$,
hence $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.\\

We proved that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ and
$(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$, therefore 
$A \setminus (B \cap C) = (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.

I feel that, since I'm not using a lot of logic (yet), the proofs seems to be more wording than what they should

this is a really long proof, you can get a cleaner proof simply by expanding the definitions and applying basic logic laws

example for this one:

x ∈ A \ (B ∩ C)
<=> x ∈ A and not(x ∈ B and x ∈ C)
<=> x ∈ A and (x ∉ B or x ∉ C)
<=> (x ∈ A and x ∉ B) or (x ∈ A and x ∉ C)
<=> x ∈ A \ B or x ∈ A \ C
<=> x ∈ (A \ B) ∪ (A \ C)

It should be clearer now:

\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
Let $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the subtraction, we have that $x \in A$ and $x \notin B \cap C$.
By the definition of the intersection, $x$ must be in $B$ and $C$ for $x \in B \cap C$
If $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$, then $x \notin B \cap C$.
This means that $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$.
If $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, then $x \in A \setminus B$.
Otherwise, $x \in A$ and $x \notin C$, then $x \in A \setminus C$.
So, we have that $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
Thus, $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
$x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$,
hence $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.\\

Next, we prove that $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
Let $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
By the definition of the union, $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
In both cases, $x \in A$ and either $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$, which is $x \notin B \cap C$.
Thus, by the definition of the subtraction, $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
$x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ implies $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$,
hence $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.\\

We proved that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ and
$(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$, therefore 
$A \setminus (B \cap C) = (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.

Here's the lemma, it should be clear.

Suppose $A$ and $B$ are sets. Then, $x \notin A \cap B$ if and only if $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$.
\end{Lemma}

\begin{proof}

This means that $x$ is not in both $A$ and $B$.
So, either $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$.

\paragraph{$\Leftarrow$} Now, suppose that $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$.
By the definition of the intersection, $x$ must be in $A$ and $B$ for $x \in A \cap B$.
If either $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$, then $x \notin A \cap B$.

# wild cape hint: to prove => use a certain exhaustive set of cases

I think I could just use De Morgan's law in the theorem in the first place, since the guide I'm following already uses it and proves it intuitively just for these proofs on sets. Regardless, here's the correction for the lemma.

\begin{proof}
~
\paragraph{$\Rightarrow$} First, suppose that $x \notin A \cap B$.
This means that $x$ is not in both $A$ and $B$.
If $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, then $x \notin A \cap B$.
Also, if $x \in B$ and $x \notin A$, then also $x \notin A \cap B$.
Lastly, if $x \notin B$ and $x \notin A$, then $x \notin A \cap B$.
So we have that either $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, or $x \in B$ and $x \notin A$, or $x \notin A$ and $x \notin B$.
For this to be true, either $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$.

\paragraph{$\Leftarrow$} Now, suppose that $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$.
By the definition of the intersection, $x$ must be in $A$ and $B$ for $x \in A \cap B$.
If either $x \notin A$ or $x \notin B$, then $x \notin A \cap B$.
\end{proof}

ideally the proof of <= also uses the framework of cases, "consider the set of cases x notin A, x notin B", but its not nearly as important as =>

#

ah wait lil edit

#

assume $x\notin A\cap B$. consider the exhaustive set of cases $x\notin A,~x\in A$. in the case $x\notin A$ we're done (the "or" holds). in the case $x\in A$ we must have $x\notin B$ (so the "or" holds), otherwise if $x\in B$ then $x\in A\cap B$, a contradiction. we conclude $x\notin A$ or $x\notin B$ since we showed its true in all cases

Thank you for your comment on the lemma. Returning to the original theorem, here's the correction citing De Morgan's law:

#
\begin{Theorem}
Suppose $A$, $B$ and $C$ are sets. Then, $A \setminus (B \cap C) = (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
\end{Theorem}
\begin{proof}
First, we prove that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
Let $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
By the definition of the subtraction, we have that $x \in A$ and $x \notin B \cap C$.
This means that $x \in (B \cap C)^c$.
By De Morgan's law, $x \in B^c \cup C^c$.
So $x \in B^c$ or $x \in C^c$.
This means that $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$.
If $x \in A$ and $x \notin B$, then $x \in A \setminus B$.
Otherwise, $x \in A$ and $x \notin C$, then $x \in A \setminus C$.
So, we have that $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
Thus, $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
$x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$ implies $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$,
hence $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.\\

Next, we prove that $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
Let $x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
By the definition of the union, $x \in A \setminus B$ or $x \in A \setminus C$.
In both cases, $x \in A$ and either $x \notin B$ or $x \notin C$.
By the definition of the complement, $x \in B^c $ or $x \notin C^c$.
Then, by the definition of th union, $x \in B^c \cup C^c$.
Lastly, by De Morgan's law, $x \in (B \cap C)^c$, which means that $x \notin B \cap C$.
Thus, by the definition of the subtraction, $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$.
$x \in (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ implies $x \in A \setminus (B \cap C)$,
hence $(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$.\\

We proved that $A \setminus (B \cap C) \subseteq (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$ and
$(A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C) \subseteq A \setminus (B \cap C)$, therefore 
$A \setminus (B \cap C) = (A \setminus B) \cup (A \setminus C)$.
\end{proof}

@earnest mirage Has your question been resolved?

# wild cape there are two laws. can you show how the book states and proves them?

Here it is:

\begin{Theorem}
Suppose $A$ and $B$ are subsets of a universal set $U$. Then, 
$$(A \cup B)^c = A^c \cap B^c \text { and } (A \cap B)^c = A^c \cup B^c.$$
\end{Theorem}

\begin{proof}
First, we will prove that $(A \cup B)^c \subseteq A^c \cap B^c$.
Let $x \in (A \cup B)^c$.
Then, by the definition of the complement (in $U$), $x \in U$ and $x \notin A \cup B$.
By the definition, $x$ can be in neither $A$ or $B$. Said differently, $x \notin A$ and $x \notin B$,
which by the definition of the complement means $x \in A^c$ and $x \in B^c$.
And hence, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in A^c \cap B^c$.
We have shown that $x \in (A \cup B)^c$ implies $x \in A^c \cap B^c$, which means $(A \cup B)^c \subseteq A^c \cap B^c$.\\

Now, we will prove that $A^c \cap B^c \subseteq (A \cup B)^c$.
Let $x \in A^c \cap B^c$.
Then, by the definition of the intersection, $x \in A^c$ and $x \in B^c$.
By the definition of the complement (in $U$), $x \in U$ and $x \notin A$ and $ x \notin B$.
which by definition of the union means $x \notin A \cup B$.
And hence by the definition of the complement, $x \in (A \cup B)^c$.
We have shown that $x \in A^c \cap B^c$ implies $x \in (A \cup B)^c$ , which means $A^c \cap B^c \subseteq (A \cup B)^c$.\\

We have shown that $(A \cup B)^c \subseteq A^c \cap B^c$ and $A^c \cap B^c \subseteq (A \cup B)^c$.
Together, this demonstrate that $(A \cup B)^c = A^c \cap B^c$.
\end{proof}

If R was an equivalence relation, you want 0R0

So my best guess is they're working with ℂ*?

#

Dude if 0R0 is false then R is not an equivalence relation

You don't need to check further

And if you're excluding 0 from complex numbers, none of the numbers you consider are allowed to be zero

versed isle
astral glacier
#

Do you know what an equivalence relation is

#

It's reflexive

#

Everything is related to itself

astral glacier
#

Like I said, either the complex numbers include zero and R isn't an equivalence relation, or the complex numbers exclude zero and then you cannot consider zero as any of the numbers concerned

If its an equivalence relation, consequentially its reflexive too

onyx tiger
neon oracle
onyx tiger
#

or you just need the derivative?

neon oracle
#

derivative and the plug-in

onyx tiger
#

ok

neon oracle
#

after i solve the derivative, that's where i plug the 1

naive dragon
#

pandathink okay in this case we will show (f(x)/g(x))'

#

let f(x)=x+2

#

g(x)=x^2+4

naive dragon
#

can we use the other one

#

$\lim_{x\to x_0} \frac{f(x)-f(x_0)}{x-x_0}$

flat frigateBOT
#

give me your fav cartoon series

neon oracle
#

that's

#

tangent

#

line

#

if i remember correctly...

onyx tiger
naive dragon
#

But yeah same thing

naive dragon
neon oracle
naive dragon
#

well

naive dragon
neon oracle
#

let me ask another question

#

what's harder, this or Differentiation Rules?

naive dragon
#

Differentiation Rules is kinda no brainer

mighty mango
#

I remember my first calc lecture when I was taught this alone without the other rules and I quite ltierally skipped 85% of the questions.

#

if this is not for a grade then just please learn the rules

#

instead of smth like derivative of x^2 + x taking you 3-4 minutes, It would take you quite ltierally 7 seconds (2 seconds after you get used to it)

naive dragon
#

opencry the only reason I know all this is because I don't do my hw and have to much spare time

mighty mango
#

the organic chemistry tutor has videos on each and every one of hte rules

#

there is power rule ---> substraction and addition ---> quotient and product rule

#

then there's chain rule, doubt you will actually need it any time soon.

#

@neon oracle

hard crest
#

chain rule is the best

mighty mango
#

if you wish, you shall start with the organic chem tutor's videos.

#

start with power rule

mighty mango
naive dragon
flat frigateBOT
#

give me your fav cartoon series

naive dragon
#

This's how you derive quotient rule

naive dragon
# naive dragon

after this step you can find f'(x) and g'(x) manually using limit definition

#

Imma go get dinner

#

@neon oracle Has your question been resolved?

onyx tiger
neon oracle
#

@onyx tiger i have expanded the top, should i expand the lcd?

onyx tiger
#

now subtract

neon oracle
#

my teacher just gonna drop a random equation without knowing it will fill the whole paper.

onyx tiger
#

why does your teacher want to do it this way

naive dragon
#

You don't have to expanding

#

Just do what I did and you'll get the answer, genuinely the best way lol

#

Using differentiation rules in a legit wayKEK

neon oracle
#

after i subtract it, it turn like −x²Δx+4Δx−4xΔx−x(Δx)²−2(Δx)²

#

after that uh, that over lcd over ∆x?

onyx tiger
onyx tiger
#

it cancels with ∆x in denominator

neon oracle
#

what happened to da lcd?

#

should i write it or no

naive dragon
onyx tiger
#

or dont simplify

#

just sub ∆x = 0

neon oracle
#

i

#

i use reciprocal

#

and

#

i solve it

#

thx

Does anyone have any advice on how to do this?

#

Would it literally just be making individual nodes for the people and connecting them to the task nodes?

compact plover
safe radishBOT
#

@spark lynx Has your question been resolved?

spark lynx
#

So it will maybe look something like this then I guess?

#

Now I just need to figure out if it is bipartite

#

I'm going to say its not bipartite

#

I'm not sure why though

stoic dune
#

Make sure to read the definition of bipartite

spark lynx
#

Thats what I've gathered from reading the definition..?

#

maybe im silly though and I didnt understand it properly

delicate shore
#

because it can be divided into two sets and every edge connects an elements of one set with an element of the other set

#

the latter part is the more important part

delicate shore
#

or in other words you can divide it into two sets such that among each set there are no "internal" edges

spark lynx
#

For the second question, I'm looking for Bipartite matching resources is?
Maximum bipartite matching the same as Bipartite matching

#

Or are they different

delicate shore
spark lynx
#

a.) The graph is bipartite, because it can be divided into two sets and every edge connects an element of one set with an element of another set.

b.) In a Bipartite matching every task is not assigned a staff; but every staff is assigned a task, this is because in a bipartite match only one edge can exist between a node in one set and another.

#

Thoughts?

safe radishBOT
#

@spark lynx Has your question been resolved?

safe radishBOT
#

@spark lynx Has your question been resolved?

delicate shore
#

It looks OK

#

this is because in a bipartite match only one edge can exist between a node in one set and another.

this sentence seems logically disconnected from the rest of your answer though

spark lynx
delicate shore
#

It is not really related to your answer

spark lynx
#

I made it into one now

spark lynx
#

Hmm I dont know how to say what I want

#

In a Bipartite match, there can only be one connection from one node in one set and another, what I mean is like it can't connect to any other nodes in the other set

spark lynx
#

Yk what I mean?

delicate shore
#

you want to say that since there are more tasks than staffs, a matching cannot match all tasks?

#

the simple explanation is just that every edge in a matching saturates exactly one new vertex on each side

#

and since there cannot be more edges in a bipartite matching than vertices in either component, the result follows

spark lynx
#

Thank you

weary latch
#

I'm pretty sure this isn't the correct way to solve the problem. Do I need to use the Law of Sines to find one of the angles before doing the Law of Cosines?

weary latch
#

I forgot to get the square root of the answer.

#

I got a big number and I was confused.

#

Okay, I got roughly 18.8.

Thanks for helping me rubber duck this!

hot stone
#

Original question is the top line

#

Instructions were to change the LHS to match the RHS using trig identities

#

So I did that

#

But why can’t 1-cos/1-cos cancel out into 1

glacial cairn
#

It does, that's kind of the point

hot stone
#

But then I’d be left with this

#

And the denominator isn’t equal

glacial cairn
#

... yes?

hot stone
#

So it doesn’t work out? 😭

glacial cairn
#

The exercise here is to prove $\frac{\sin \theta}{1+\cos \theta} = \frac{1-\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}$

flat frigateBOT
opal fractal
hot stone
#

Yeah

glacial cairn
#

The first step is to multiply the LHS by $\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1-\cos \theta}$

flat frigateBOT
hot stone
glacial cairn
#

Which is allowed precisely because it equals 1

glacial cairn
# hot stone

If you wrote this, the third line is just wrong

hot stone
#

Why

glacial cairn
#

Because there's no valid step that leads to it

opal fractal
#

since you want to have the 1-cos in the numerator, you kinda have to multiply by it eventually to get the term

hot stone
#

And that leaves sin(theta) in the numerator

glacial cairn
#

You think $\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1 - \cos^2 \theta} = \frac{1}{1-\cos \theta}$?

flat frigateBOT
hot stone
#

Yeah that’s what I was thinking

#

😭😭

glacial cairn
#

Well, that's wrong

opal fractal
#

if you explicitly factor out 1 - cos², you get (1-cos)(1+cos)

hot stone
#

Oh

opal fractal
#

in the third line, you basically undo what you did in the second line anyway

glacial cairn
#

You got $1 - \cos^2 \theta$ from $(1 + \cos \theta)(1 - \cos \theta)$ in the previous step, why would you think it can then transform into $(1 - \cos \theta)(1 - \cos \theta)$

flat frigateBOT
opal fractal
#

and in the 4th line, you flipped the LHS

hot stone
#

My bad

#

So would I turn the denominator into sin^2(theta)

glacial cairn
#

Yes

hot stone
#

I see

#

Thank guys 👍

#

Thanks*
