no 😭
basically it's just the ratio of side lengths on a right triangle and they are extremely useful
I recommend self studying and watching videos on it and if you don't get something feel free to ask
what do you consider to be "basic"
remember how in geometry you had like SAS and SSS and AAS theorems? trigonometry is an extension of those

I’m trying to find integral using partial fractions, but first have to do long division. I’m lost ngl, what’s next? I did the long division
Calculus 2 7.4 partial fractions
first was the long division which u did properly
,tex $(x + 4) + \frac{16}{x - 4}$
WeirdBoi
no
uhh and yeah turns out this is the final solution lmao
take integration of that
Ok so I do them separately
yeah
Ok perfect thanks

can someone help me
im a yr 8 so it will be easy
Do u know what's is congruent means?
Correct we just have to proved that for triangle BAD and triangle BDC. Can u see the triangle I am mentioning?
so how could i answer the question
U smart
When I was in grade we use create table for statement and reason. Then we write prove on it.
Did you learn SAS (etc.)
side angle side right ?
Is this SAS
What is the angle on a straight line?
90 ?
Not quite, that's the angle on a quarter turn
180
You're not meant to give the full answer, you're helping
Good, now is ADC a straight line?
umm my apologies but i dont quite fully understand
yes
Do you agree that the angle ADB is the same as the ange CDB?
Let em explain them to you
How so?
i dident understand what he ment by all the letters
i just got a little confused
Yeah don't worry
And their sum is 180? Right
yes
What is 180 divided by 2?
So one angle is 180:2
90
Then angle CDB is right?
What is the definition of perpendicular?
umm im pretty sure when there is a line which has another line though it and its 90 degrees
Perfect
Perfect
They don't need to go through, they only need to meet
i see
but one thing i didn't understand was when they said [corresponding angles of congruent triangles]
We've shown the triangles to be congruent right?
?
oh that they are the same shape
Not quite, although they are a pair of corresponding angles
There are three pairs^

Prove BC=6GM
how to prove it tho?
bọn chuyên ah hay j đây
can someone give me the full question?
gửi hẳn đề ra đây đi t đọc
Idk im just guessing it
translation: ABC is a right triangle at A, draw ray AD at the opposite direction of ray AB such that AD = AB
a) triangle CAD and triangle CAB is congruent
b) let M be the midpoint of CD, draw a parallel line with BC that passes through D and intersects BM at E. prove that BC = ED
c) let G be the intersection of AE and DM, prove that BC = 6GM

I get major confused by this long Set theory thing. where do i start?
$|D \cup E \cup F| = |D \cup (E \cup F)| = |D| + |E \cup F| - |D \cap (E \cup F)| = |D| + |E| + |F| - |E \cap F| - |D \cap (E \cup F)| = |D| + |E| + |F| - |E \cap F| - |(D \cap E) \cup (D \cap F)| = |D| + |E| + |F| - |E \cap F| - |D \cap E| - |D \cap F| + |D \cap E \cap F|$
PainAndLight
Firstly by breaking it into lines

Hi bina
Good
Well are you familiar with this formula:
yes
$|A \cup B| = |A| + |B| - | A \cap B|$
Xavier 🌺
...you didn't even see the formula
yes im familar wit that
its he cardinality of union
and I can swap around with it
Well this one is just a repeated application of that
I will leave this diagram here in hopes that it will help.
the numbers indicate how many times the area is included by just adding |A| + |B| + |C|.


Sadly I dont have to draw
Well the drawing is a good way to understand what's going on
Why is there so many more - in the solution
Do you understand what I'm saying here
What order
You can do it in any order, it doesn't matter
Every time you see a union, apply the formula
I imagine those are values that you've been given?
yses
...so you plug in the values
oh
it got moved
but shouldnt the | D n E n F | be negative
after moving it to the right
no.
but i swappped it
what did you swap it with?
and so their signs should not change.
you are moving the single-set cardinalities and the two-set intersections. the triple union and intersection do not move at all.
honestly you can just count on the venn diagram yourself
two-set inclusion-exclusion applied once on E U F.
the result will immediately pop out
I have to write it this way
you can use the diagram for intuition!
mhhh
If you get how the formula arises then the proof comes more easily
one should never try to prove anything that is not obvious
wisdom from the great 0lante
well I didn't say it,
did
if you need help understanding the whole thing, perhaps the Wikipedia article on inclusion-exclusion would help.
if that is from Wikipedia, right under that line:
This formula can be verified by counting how many times each region in the Venn diagram figure is included in the right-hand side of the formula. In this case, when removing the contributions of over-counted elements, the number of elements in the mutual intersection of the three sets has been subtracted too often, so must be added back in to get the correct total.
oof
I have already included that Venn diagram with annotations regarding the number of times each section is first included when adding |A| + |B| + |C|.
ill try
This a supplemental video from one of my courses that I made in my more typical style. This is a follow up to previous videos introducing the Set cardinality theorems and then counting principles in general. In this particular video, we show how to begin to deal with the general Sum principle for Sets when you have more than two sets involved. C...
dafuq did I just watch. 
but made sense tbh
so to get the intersection of the all
Why again dont I just move the lhs stuff to the rhs and the |A n B C | thats on the rhs to the lhs?
and change their precedding operator symbols accordingly
i mean why D;
why overcomplicate things?
oh, you want to move the triple intersection to the left and the triple union to the right.
yes
well, that works, but then you'll get -(triple intersection) on the left, and to clear that negative sign you'll have to multiply both sides by -1, necessitating you to flip every single sign on the right. if you think that doing so is preferable, by all means use that method - the final answer is the same.
so but
how did the triple intersection get to left anyway
it was always on the right
ive were not movig
do you think just writing down this in a test would be enough?
I personally would derive the first line here through inclusion-exclusion, but I don't know how your examiner or teacher likes things.
for any question concerning tests, ask your teacher.

Is this correct and if yes, is there any way I could improve this?

but kinda long for me and hard to keep track
i have a better way to do
we still reach until $p^2 = 12q^2$
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
but this time, we'll do $p^2 = 3(2q)^2$
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
yes
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
this is morally incorrect
$p = \pm 3^{1/2}2q$
gribble19
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
which is really easy to do
-# shush at least it works
you’re violating all the moral codes omg
-# at least it works 
this is so impure
gribble19
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
and some more unrelated conditions that me myself wouldn't want to say
so since $\gcd(p, q) = 1$ then $\gcd(p^2, q^2) = 1$
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
this is like, assuming you have developed basic ‘integer square root theory’ before you have done the things that should go into ‘integer basic square root theory’
extremely immoral
how do you know this
extremely immoral and inappropriate when you make fun of someone's work while they're working on this
it's called prime factorization
idk if you've learned it before

or if ts is some ring theory that wai had before
if the work is immoral it is moral for me to call it out
immoral
if it's moral for you to call it out, but is immoral if it's interupting
contradiction
slayla are you saying its better to do it how i did it or rather there is a third option that is better than both
p^2 = 12q^2
let's see your moral way
there's no defined rule of what a proof should be moral look like right?
let’s ask snow he knows everything
@toxic stratus what do you think? do you think invoking the sqrt symbol for this problem is immoral?
as for a moral way… @nimble helm do you know euclid’s lemma?
no
well we can probably still use it even if you haven’t learned it by name
can't you use a better name for a proof?
💀
we have that 3 divides p and 2 divides p. can you see why?
yep. so 6 divides p
so 6, 4, 3, 2 divide p^2
6(2q^2) 🥀
she is really trying to waste 2 steps just to say that 🥀
now try what you did, but with the fact that 6 divides p instead
oh
yes that is what i originally wanted to do bc then it just simplifies to 18k^2 = q^2 for some integer k
and q is also even

but i couldn't figure out how to show that if 6 divides p^2 then 6 also divides p
no i think i get it
blud…
i am appealing to euclid’s lemma
which is the morally correct way to do ts
6 dividing p^2 doesn't mean 6 divides p but both 3 and 2 dividing p^2 means both divide p bc euclids lemma (which only works for primes (so not 6)) and then because 3 and 2 divide p, 6 also divides p
you probably want to use some intuition you have with the sqrt symbol or something
but really it follows from 3 dividing p and 2 dividing p
beautiful
wouldn’t it be more like (6k)^2 = 36k^2 = 12q^2, which implies 3k^2 = q^2
then we have that 3 divides q
and 3 also divides p
and we are done
also your profile is so beautiful
thank you 
you indeed speak the truth, amen
okay i understand it now im just writing it up
well 6 divides p^2 does imply 6 divides p. but like… in general for a composite number in place of 6, that statement does not hold. that’s why i appealed to euclid’s lemma to show it in this case
that’s more of a message for @open wedge though
as is this
elaborate for me why moral is important?
so we say that because r is a rational r = p/q for integers p,q with greatest common denominator 1? or is there a cleaner way to word that
you can say that
there exist integers p and q with gcd(p,q) = 1
p and q coprime
my preferred principle to use here is descent but you don’t need to worry about that
the represent by coprime integers perspective is also morally correct
i can't just always follow as your style of writing proofs here
that you define such a set of rules that makes your proofs moral and try to make others follow that rule
‘not invoking the sqrt symbol’ is not even style
it’s just really bad form and demonstrates you don’t know how number theory is built up and is inappropriate because you don’t build it with square root theory before ts
that does not mean im not allowed to use square roots
how do you know the sqrt exists?
it literally does
why then
these are not my personal rules. this is how number theory is done
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
that’s just shorthand for saying there is no rational number whose square is 2
answer me
yes sure that is number theory. but i am responding to your next point in advance about how there is a sqrt symbol there
moral AND easier to follow?
well then your argument contradicts this
more moral than before for sure
tbh i don't even care if it's moral or not
the contradiction is slightly immoral but that’s more for style rather than correctness
so it’s ok
math isn't defined by morality so i don't even care
Closed by @nimble helm
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
blud… i’m using moral a certain way
perhaps not how you would use it in plain english in a serious way

How do this
What does it mean for T to be inversely proportional to w
Yeah ok
And w=1/4 × cube root of d
Cube root you mean
I just dont get how i find the value of d when T=36
Yeah
Ok well if T = 36, can you find w?
No?
Set up both equations
T = k/w and solve for k by plugging in the numbers 10 = k/9
W = k* cube root d
1= k* cuberoot 64
1 = k* 4
I think your set up was wrong
Let me know if you would like the values of k
Oh i just substitute 1/4 ×cube root of d for w?
Well just from T = 90/w, you could solve for w in 36 = 90 / w
Then that will give you w and you can do a similar thing for d
Oh i justs substitute 36 into T=90/w
Then use what w is and substitute it in w=1/4 × cube root of d
Thx
So w=2.5
Then d is 2.15443469
If w = 2.5, then you get
2.5 = 1/4 * cbrt(d)
You need to cube to solve for d, not take the cube root

Use slopes to show that the points (-1, -3), (6,1), and (2, -5) form a right-angled triangle
The answer is supposed to be m1 = 3/2 & m2 = -2/3 but how did they reach that?
I'm trying the slope equation, but (1-(-3)/(6-(-1) gives me 4/7?
what is the slope equation?
$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$
Vortac
is that what you have
what are the two points in this
(-1, -3), (6,1), and (2, -5)
Vortac
so you get the equation and the points, but why do you use x1 - y1 / x2 - y2
I'm not? (x1: -1, y1: -3), (x2: 6, y2: 1)
y2: 1 - (y1: -3)
ok i see you are right my bad
well that's only one slope
a triangle has 3 sides
have you found the other 2
The answer is supposed to be $m1 = \frac{3}{2} & m2 = \frac{-2}{3}$ so that first slope can't be right?
Vortac
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
a triangle has 3 sides man
yeah, and the answer key shows two slopes
the other two slopes could be the right angle
have you tried ?
are you aware of the fact that if there are two slopes M and N
if N = -1/M
then M and N are perpendicular and make right angles
so you have found ONE SIDE of the triangle
you dont know if the other two sides make right angles
it's not enough to say anything right now
they haven't gone over right angles yet, so yeah that makes sense
thank you

This was in my answer key: I don't get it. If you pull the negation out through the forall y, doesn't that change it to: "there exists y" ?
De Morgan's law for quantifiers applies when you're trying to push a single negation inside
but here, you're using the implication rule to create a double negation on the outside
p implies q
is equivalent to
not p or q
they used this ^
That negation is on the first term of the implication. That implication is getting rewritten, the negation doesn't go through the quantifier
But then wouldn't we have something like this?
That's not what is written
Sorry I meant:
they rewrote the implication as not p or q
imagine we have
not p implies q
that's logically equivalent to saying
p or q
Let $A(x,y) \equiv \neg N(x,y) \lor \neg P(y)$, then you have $\forall x (\neg \textcolor{orange}{[\forall y(A(x,y))]} \implies P(x))$
Nel
That orange part is untouched
(not forall y...) implies P(x)
not (not forall y...) or P(x)
Wouldn't the orange part with the negation in front turn into a Existential quantifier?
Let me rephrase
Let $B \equiv \forall y(\neg N(x,y) \lor \neg P(y))$ and $C \equiv P(x)$, then you have $$\forall x (\neg B \implies C) \equiv \forall x (B \lor C)$$

for sequences, high school level! for An = n² - 8 does A₄n = 4n ² - 8?
it seems really easy but im not really sure so i came here
Do you have the original question?
yes hold on ill have to translate it
It’s best to provide the screenshot as well so that we can verify it
Determine the terms a₄n for the sequence defined by the formula:
the formula being An = n² - 8
Is it a$_{4\text{n}}$?
雙目
If this is the case, you’re supposed to replace n with 4n entirely
Meaning that 4n should be squared instead of squaring n and multiply it with 4
@cosmic peak Has your question been resolved?
@cosmic peak Since you reacted ❌ to the bot, is there anything you wanna ask?
so does A₄n = 4n ² - 8?
(4n)^2-8

I have a finite cover of closed intervals for the cantor set. I want to show that this cover covers some Ck level from the construction of the C. How can i show this?
@tropic hatch Has your question been resolved?
by Ck level you would have 2^k intervals right?
seach of the same lenght, also dependent on k
maybe use this to show a contradiction, using the fact that each closed Ck has C, which is compact

i tried proof by absurd but it didn't work
for the first one
$(1, \sqrt{2}, \sqrt[4]{2})$
we will consider $(a, b, c) \in \mathbb{Q}^3$ :
$$a + b\sqrt{2} + c\sqrt[4]{2} = 0$$
$$a + b\sqrt{2} = -c\sqrt[4]{2}$$
$$(a + b\sqrt{2})^2 = c^2\sqrt{2}$$
$$a^2 + 2b^2 + 2ab\sqrt{2} = c^2\sqrt{2}$$
$$a^2 + 2b^2 = (c^2 - 2ab)\sqrt{2}$$
if $c^2 - 2ab \neq 0$
then $$\sqrt{2} = \frac{a^2 + 2b^2}{c^2 - 2ab}$$
that means $\sqrt{2} \in \mathbb{Q}$ contradiction
$c^2 - 2ab = 0$
$a^2 + 2b^2 = 0$
akeanti💕
the a^2 + 2b^2 = 0 => a=0 and b=0
if u replace in the first equation then c = 0 too
i see
i didn't think of squaring it
i was trying to make an equality such as a rational=irrationnal but i got stuck
akeanti💕
after some simplification
and for the second?
$$(2c^3 + a^3 + 6ab^2) + (3a^2b + 2b^3)\sqrt{2} = 0$$
akeanti💕
and u already found on the first question that (1, sqrt(2)) is independent
so both are = to zero
that's for the second or third
yup
third, second looks like it might need more simplification
akeanti💕
$$(a + b\sqrt{2}) + \sqrt{3}(c + d\sqrt{2}) = 0$$
akeanti💕
that will imply
and square it?
$$\sqrt{3} = - \frac{a + b\sqrt{2}}{c + d\sqrt{2}}$$
akeanti💕
yup for sure
$$\sqrt{3} = \frac{2bd - ac}{c^2 - 2d^2} + \frac{ad - bc}{c^2 - 2d^2}\sqrt{2}$$
akeanti💕
$u = \frac{2bd - ac}{c^2 - 2d^2}$ avec $u \in \mathbb{Q}$
$v = \frac{ad - bc}{c^2 - 2d^2}$ avec $v \in \mathbb{Q}$
akeanti💕
that will leave us with $$\sqrt{3} = u + v\sqrt{2}$$
akeanti💕
$$\sqrt{3} = - \frac{(ac - 2bd)+(bc-ad)\sqrt{2}{c - 2d}$$

$$3 - u^2 - 2v^2 = 2uv\sqrt{2}$$
akeanti💕
ah yeah alr
and u also have this again
so sqrt 2 is equal to a rationnal
uhhh nope ig u can use smt else
each part here is equal to 0
since u have this one again
according to question 1
$2uv = 0 \implies u = 0$ ou $v = 0$
akeanti💕
ok but it is it fakse to say that?
wait you speak french?
yea
@knotty matrix u can take each case if u=0 or v=0
and apply it to the second term
that way u will find the contradiction
ig
idk man the first seems straight forward
if $u = 0$, $2v^2 = 3 \implies v^2 = \frac{3}{2}$
akeanti💕
akeanti💕
akeanti💕
ok ok merci
and also $a + b\sqrt{2} = 0$
akeanti💕
same as this one, so a=0 and b=0
did u get what i was trying to do xD
yup thank you bro
happy i could help ^^
can you come dm?
sure

I dont understand why it is taking the derivative like that. isnt it supposed to be in terms of dp/dt? Why is it just saying the derivative of 50,000p is just 50,000 instead of 50,000 dp/dt?
Specifically i set revenue as R = p(rice) * x (quantity) and put x in terms of p, as shown there. so r = 50000p / root(4p +1)
And also when it takes the derivative of 4p+1, it just says 4, but if its with respect to price change why wouldnt it be 4 * dp / dt
and if thats what the outside one is then 1) why is it outside, and 2) why wouldnt it do the same type, for 50000p

ah well both problems seem unsolvable to me
unfortunate
guys use trigonometry to solve this
where did you get this from
well this question was made by me
well this question has undefined parameters
no solve is easy

the line connected to the square should go to the top of the 6sqrt3 leg
yes
as the image stand right now, you cant solve it because some distances are undefined
you should fix that
wait lemme check

I have this Poisson equation in x of the form (u'' + \omega^{2}u = f) with Dirichlet boundary conditions (u(0) = u(a) = 0) where f is some arbitrary function of x. I found the solution to be the following expression (\rightarrow)
Amoomgus
In Maple, when I use the diff command, Maple is not recognizing that the integral expressions are functions of x and instead treat them as some constant:
please someone help this is my third time askng this question
is the one in the blue
The blue are outputs that are directly underneath their corresponding Maple code/script (in black).
I know that this is the solution -- this is what I arrived at when integrating the arbitrary function f with the Kernal G aka Green's function, which was found with some basic ODE methods. I am just trying to verify that, when you apply L to G where L is the Laplacian, you get back f
and I'm trying to verify this with Maple for obvious reasons -- it is much too tedious to keep doing all this verification/validation by hand

yh, I did think it felt like some AI got in the mix
@blissful oyster Consider asking your question in some place dedicated for Maple, perhaps?
(idk if Maple has a Discord server, but I'd try looking there, or potentially on Reddit)
yeahhh I tried looking in the Discord server list and via Google, but nothing for Maple specifically showed up
Honestly, I think I'd have better results just soldiering through Maple documentation and testing more code myself haha
This is a general thing I'd recommend for coding; it might work in this case
Check if you get the same issue in much smaller cases, e.g. with writing smaller functions and see if Maple throws up errors
And then build it back up to the function you're trying to write
If you find a hitch, that's what you should seek to address
If writing a small function still throws an error, then it's likely you're not writing the function in a recognisable way
Yup!
I created a test function g(x) defined in terms of some arbitrary definite integral and got exactly the output I was hoping for in the simple case
I guess I'll slowly build up from there back to u and see where the disconnect happens... I'll come back here when that happens

When we check whether a function is defined can't we check by simplifying it first?
Suppose f of x equals xsq - 1 / x-1
At x equals 1
It's undefined can't we simplify first?
Even if you simplify stuff, the original expression remains undefined.
Open the formula above
X - 1 cancels out
It becomes 2
Isn't it defined
What I mean is even if you simplify and it becomes "defined"
The original expression at that point has the form 0/0
That's not defined.
you cant simplify if they are zeros so you need to mention that they are not zeros before simplify
have you been studying a lot of limits lately
when you simplify stuff like that, u also add the condition x≠1 for example
Continuity
So like $f(x) = \frac{x-2}{x-2}$, clearly whenever $x\ne 2$, $f(x) = 1$, but $f(2)$ isn't defined
Azyrashacorki
yes, but recall what you are doing by cancellation
when you cancel common factors, you are dividing through the fraction by the same common factor
but at x = 1 in your example, you are dividing through by 0
which is obviously not allowed, hence that restriction remains even after you simplify

can you explain well ordering principle to me like im a newborn
goo goo gah gah
no but are you referring to the well ordering on natural numbers or in general the set theoretic one?
this was very simple to follow, thank you!
Basically, suppose you have some natural numbers(can be infinite)
then there exists smallest number in that set of numbers
how does that help
i already knew that if i have a collection of things , there will be a thing that is the smalles
what implication does this principle have
for natural numbers this is pretty obvious yes
but being able to claim this for any set out there requires axiom of choice
i might ask for some context
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
It doesn't mean much more than what you think it does for natural numbers.
It can be useful because if you know you have some set of natural numbers with some property, you're guaranteed there's a LEAST one with that property. That's not true in general for sets with any order, like Z, Q or R.
Also as they quickly mention, it's actually equivalent to mathematical induction, which itself is a nice consequence.
Hum
One can prove that they imply each other.
The main idea is that if you have a set S like in induction and it's not N, then N \ S is nonempty and would have a least element. You can show that this would contradict the fact that N\S has a least element, so N\S must be empty, i.e. S = N. This shows WOP => induction at least
It's not exactly simple
Yeah it might be good to just take it as a fact that you get induction for free with WOP
Eventually I think it makes sense intuitively that the WOP has at least something to do with induction and vice versa
where he tells something about WOP
Prob on the axiom of choice
yeahh
Right well in natural numbers it's sort of intuitive that it should be well-ordered.
In general, given any set, you might want to (1) give an order to that set, (2) see if you can choose that order such that it is a well-order (has the same property as the WOP says N has).
Sets like Z and R with the usual order we have on them aren't well ordered for instance
Yeah that's not really it
But essentially if you accept what is called the Axiom of Choice (which people have good reasons to accept or reject), then you get what's called (NOT Zorn's Lemma) Well Ordering Theorem, which says that for ANY set there is an order which is a well-order on that set.
Well it doesn't say that any order is a well-order
For instance, a well-ordering of R would definitely not look like the usual ordering we have of R
But it would still be a valid order and that theorem says that it should exist.
Yes that's another consequence of the axiom of choice
so the only problem with well ordering is infinity
Well in general for any finite set it's quite easy to order it
So yes the "issue" is with ordering infinite sets
so the crux is that , we can assume that an infinite set has a well order , we dont know what it is
Yeah
but we cant apply induction to the set of real numbers right
The thing is the axiom of choice has some very odd consequences like the Banach Tarski Paradox, but the Well-ordering theorem is quite useful in that it has some natural consequences, like that every vector space has a basis, which seems lik it should be true.
Heck on its own choice seems like it's quite intuitive
I think that you can define something akin to induction on any well-ordered set. So technically you could but again, the order wouldn't be workable
understandable
this is why i love number theory
no real numbers in sight
thanks again

_que : _ Find the sum of the solution of the equation |x|^3 - 15x^2 - 8|x| - 11 = 0
my method is to let
t = |x| => (t^3 - 15t^2 - 8t - 11 = 0)
further this cubic isn't solveable
the hit and try doesn't work
in different regions
if $t=\alpha$ then $x = \pm \alpha$
solve once while taking domain of fxn as R+
Vieta's ?
and once by R-
due to the mod
ah
there are extra solutions
but now i wonder if the solution is supposed to be trivial like that
no
sum of solutions of t will be = -b/a = 15, maybe you can get somewhere with that
we cant use this
from here you see that the sum of roots for every value of t is 0
then answer should be zero
i guess..
is the answer something else?
checking....
is it 15?
that was smart
oh right
i fumbled
ans should be 0
the sum of solutions in negative domain is coming +ve and vice versa , which is not possible
i do this step every time |x| = t then x = +- t but didn't notice we can say the sum like this
well you cant do this everytime i suppose
You certainly can do it for (i), and you can do a very similar thing for (ii) and (iv), though (iv) is very easy anyway
this occurs when the function is syymmetric ig
i solved (i) and (iv) th by procedure
(ii) seems to use the same idea with a bit of thinking
yes there is manipulation in (ii)
i got t = [-1 +- sqrt(45)]/2 in (ii)
after that looking at solution i got to know some basic manipulation
You don't need to do any of that
they let t = |x-3|
now |x-3| = [-1 +- sqrt(45)]/2
and then let y = |x-3|
so y = +- (x-3)
y = x -3 and y = 3 -x
so x = y +3 and x = 3-y and sum is 6
how would you do it then
write ( x-3)² as |x-3|² since its positive and let |x-3| =t
it will give you 4 soln
we doin ts with or without calc
f(x) = (x-3)^2 + |x-3| - 11, consider f(x+3)
js making sure

how do I logically solve this problem: find for which integers (2024+n)/n is a perfect square
2024 only has 14 divisors (not 1 or 2024) so you might as well just check them all
put 2024/n = k^2 - 1. 2024 does not have very many divisors
(also n = -2024 is a solution if n is not given positive)
why k^2-1
equivalent to (2024+n)/n = k^2
yes
but it’s an odd number in that way isn’t it
I also don’t get why should I consider the divisors
if you put 2024 = n(k^2-1), then n is a divisor of 2024
so this is a pretty strong necessary condition on n
(2024+n)/n = 2024/n + 1, so if n does not divide 2024, you don't even get an integer
it makes the problem very finite
you can just check the finitely many divisors of 2024
that is true
If for some reason you wanna avoid checking 14 divisors, you could also do it like this:
2024/n = k^2 - 1 = (k-1)(k+1)
So you need a divisor of 2024 = 2^3 * 11 * 23 which can be factored as (k-1)(k+1). Those have same parity though, so either both factors are even, or both odd. They cant be both odd, because then it would have to be 11 and 23, which clearly doesnt work. So they must be both even, so
k-1 = 2 * _
k+1 = 2 * _
Now you can add 2, 11, 23
If we add only the 2, it works. So that's one solution, k-1 = 2; k+1 = 2*2
Now if we add one of 11 or 23, we must add both. Because otherwise the numbers would get too big to balance out
So we do
k-1 = 2 * 11 * _
k+1 = 2 * 23 * _
Now only 2 remains, and if we add it to k-1, we get k-1 = 44, k+1 = 46 as our last sol.
Now to actually reconstruct n from those, remember that
2024/n = (k-1)(k+1)
but shouldn’t I deduce it rather than putting it as an hypothesis?
sure? i’m not sure what putting it as a hypothesis even means though
"which integers (2024+n)/n is a perfect square" directly translates to (2024+n)/n = k^2 where n and k are integers
yes
That's not really a hypothesis
You're fine as long as you don't transmit yourself

Can I solve this without using any system or solving any forth grade equation?
I guess so
@west venture Has your question been resolved?
probably with a lot of terrible algebra
let r+s = p, rs = q
(r+s)^2 = r^2 + s^2 + 2q
(r^2 + s^2)^2 = r^4 + s^4 + 2q^2
so uhh
((r+s)^2 - 2q)^2 = r^4 + s^4 + 2q^2
(1 - 2q)^2 = 7 + 2q^2
now solve for q I suppose, it should be only qudratic
