wind cypress
#

having some trouble understanding this question and how to approach it

wind cypress
#

So far I have that since $A$ is positive definite, then by Sylvester's theorem/law of inertia, then $A$ is similar to a matrix of positive eigenvalues, so then there exists some $C$ invertible such that $CAC^* = I$

flat frigateBOT
#

TestTickler

wind cypress
#

but i dont really know how to show the next part and go forward

#

actually not similar but congruent*

safe radishBOT
#

@wind cypress Has your question been resolved?

safe radishBOT
#

@wind cypress Has your question been resolved?

zinc hornet
#

Just plug the right thing into f(X;A) = XAX* such that when you simplify, it reduces to I.

wind cypress
#

yeah i think i ended up getting it, since B is hermitian, then we get that $CBC^*$ is still Hermitian, so then by Spectral Theorem, hermitian matrix is diagonalizable by a unitary matrix $U$, so then we get that $U(CB(UC)^**$

vivid bison
#

I tried to find MP using similar triangles but got nowhere, pls help

vague phoenix
#

What ratios did you get?

vivid bison
#

2:3

#

this problem was from my geometry test and it was poorly made so this could be unsolvable

vague phoenix
#

Have you tried to draw out the line ratios between triangle PNM and PBD?

vivid bison
#

no

#

i can say that

#

AP = 2x, PB = 3x and AM=MB=2y

vague phoenix
#

x and y are?

vivid bison
#

oh wait

#

forget about AM and MB

#

this is the ratio i can get

vivid bison
split kayak
#

Oh, okay, with this info the problem is "relatively" easy as far as i can tell.

#

I hope this makes some sense

#

We know that 2x * cosθ = 10 and that 3x * cosθ = 15; notably, we have that
x * cosθ = 5

vivid bison
#

Yeah

split kayak
#

Since the line AB = 5x

#

And M lies at the middle, its in 2.5x

#

Notably, the line i painted red has a length of 0.5x

vivid bison
#

So 0.5x × cos(theta) = 2.5

split kayak
#

and youre done

vivid bison
#

Am i?

split kayak
#

MN is what they asked you for, yea

vivid bison
#

Ohhh

split kayak
#

the triangle on top is just the rotated version of what its in the middle of the diagram.

#

Also, it makes sense that its 2.5, since we know that PDB has 6 times the length(s) of PNM

3x / 0.5x = 6
15/2.5 = 6

vivid bison
#

Yeah it does

split kayak
#

you were right in trying to approach this with the fact that these are all similar triangles.

vivid bison
#

Interesting

#

Well this was way easier

#

Thanks for help

woeful shale
#

How do I begin with 20th question

safe radishBOT
nimble wyvern
upper lance
#

Or write the question here

nimble wyvern
#

"Prove that no straight line can be drawn within a triangle which is greater than the greatest side"

#

i think

safe radishBOT
#

@woeful shale Has your question been resolved?

woeful shale
#

I have a solution . But am nt able to understand that

karmic merlin
woeful shale
#

1 min

woeful shale
#

I got stucked in diagram itself

median sand
#

,rcw

flat frigateBOT
woeful shale
median sand
#

I am reading.

woeful shale
#

OK

#

Forget abt this solution

#

Solve it ur own way and explain

prisma karma
# woeful shale

u might want to clean ur camera lol, which question r u asking abt?

#

oh nvm u said 20th mb

prisma karma
#

ig my method is the same as theirs ok

woeful shale
#

So ya I need explanation for diagram

prisma karma
#

Let P,Q be two points in the triangle and suppose for the sake of contradiction that PQ is somehow greater than the greatest side BC

#

Let us extend PQ to hit the sides of ABC and for a new line segment P'Q' then clearly, P'Q' will be longer than PQ right?

woeful shale
#

P q touches line of trainable or inside triangle?

prisma karma
#

We are proving by contradiction

woeful shale
prisma karma
#

basically suppose a line PQ exists greater than BC, we want to show someone is very wrong (so a contradiction occurs)

prisma karma
#

it is possible P'=P

#

good point, I should say P'Q' is at least as long as PQ

#

it is possible they are equal

woeful shale
#

Caus3 its already touching right ?

woeful shale
#

Can u share ur diagram 1st

prisma karma
prisma karma
woeful shale
woeful shale
#

Thank u

prisma karma
#

It is possible that P=P'

#

that's the case when P is on the edge of ABC

woeful shale
woeful shale
prisma karma
#

but it doesn't matter, all I need is this fact:

If PQ is a counterexample (that PQ is longer than BC), then P'Q' will be too

prisma karma
#

we suppose PQ exists (it can be in any shape or form) and trying to find a contradiciton

prisma karma
#

what does S mean

woeful shale
#

Yes

prisma karma
#

ok good

woeful shale
#

How to find contradiction?

prisma karma
#

so what the text you sent says something like "we might as well consider a counterexample where P, Q are touching the edge"

That is, we might as well use P' Q' as our counterexample

#

Now we delve into cases:

What if P' is on AB and Q' is on BC, and what if P' is on BC and Q' is on AB?

woeful shale
#

Didn't understand

prisma karma
prisma karma
# woeful shale This one

Basically if PQ is a counterexample then P'Q' is a counterexample. We might as well arrive at a counterexamle with P'Q' since it is easier to work with.

woeful shale
#

Wt does counter example mean ?

prisma karma
toxic trench
prisma karma
#

if this is confusing just ignore it. Suppose that PQ>AB with PQ inside ABC, we want to reach a contradiciton

#

Then we proved that length(P'Q')>length(BC)

#

we want to prove that length(P'Q')>length(BC) is impossible

#

Three cases:

  1. the secment P'Q' lies on the sides AB, BC (doesnt matter if P' is on AB or Q', it is the same)
#
  1. the segment P'Q' lies on the sides BC, CA

  2. the segment P'Q' lies on the sides CA, AB

#

is this part clear?

woeful shale
prisma karma
# woeful shale Y

cuz that's our strategy remember? we are trying to reach a countradiction by assuming PQ is longer than BC

#

if we can prove that this assumption is always wrong

#

then it shows that PQ must be at most as long as BC

#

does this clear things up

woeful shale
prisma karma
#

so basically if we can prove it length(P'Q')<=length(BC) this shows that our original deduction of length(P'Q')>length(BC) is wrong, and thus our assumption of length(PQ)>length(BC) is wrong

#

oops i was using AB

woeful shale
prisma karma
#

mb

prisma karma
#

like there can only be three possible types of positions for the line segment P'Q'

prisma karma
#

Let me do the first case:

  1. the segment P'Q' lies on the sides AB, BC (doesnt matter if P' is on AB or Q', it is the same)
#

i drew the graph for you

#

Now (I am using len to denote length now, cuz I am lazy)

len(P'Q')<= max(len(P'A), len(P'C))

And since len(P'A)<=len(BA) and len(P'C)<= max(len(AC),len(BC))=len(BC) (since BC is longest by assumption)

It follows that max(len(P'A),len(P'C))<=max(len(BA),len(BC))=len(BC)

Combining this inequality with the first inequality we obtain:

len(P'Q')<=len(BC)

#

lmk if there are any confusing bits

woeful shale
#

And how can it even be write as bc is greatest side

#

So pq can't be less than anything write ?

prisma karma
#

r u not aware of that? i can write down the lemma

woeful shale
#

Lemme? Meaning

prisma karma
#

a minor proven statement

woeful shale
#

Can u state that

prisma karma
#

Lemma:

Let ABC be any triangle and let D be any point on BC

Then len(AD)<=max(len(AB),len(AC))

prisma karma
woeful shale
#

Like how do u state it

prisma karma
#

state what?

#

i just stated the lemma

#

u mean what you don't know lemma is?

woeful shale
#

Yes idk wt lemma is

prisma karma
#

it's just a noun we use to say "a statement that is used to prove the what we want"

prisma karma
#

it is some statement that we can use in our question

woeful shale
#

Can u apply it in are question?

prisma karma
#

it is some random nouns we label out statements by: less important statement are called lemmas, more impotant ones are called proposition, and most impostant ones are theorems

woeful shale
#

Ok

prisma karma
#

but these are all rando math fact u don't need rn

prisma karma
#

this is the thing we need

#

have you seen the proof for this before?

woeful shale
woeful shale
prisma karma
prisma karma
woeful shale
woeful shale
prisma karma
#

how it applies you get right?

#

Ill need to give you a proof of this fact, so that you don't have lingering doubts

woeful shale
prisma karma
#

yeah there are two times where I applied this lemma, be mindful

woeful shale
#

Once I will solve myself again and let me see am I able to or nt
I will coneback to u in few mins

prisma karma
#

have you learned sin and cos stuff yet?

prisma karma
woeful shale
prisma karma
#

I invite you to try them yourself

woeful shale
prisma karma
#

the other cases are quite similar

#

using the lemma

prisma karma
# woeful shale Yes

jave u learned that in a triangle ABC sin(angle A)/len(BC)= sin(angle B)/len(AC)?

woeful shale
prisma karma
prisma karma
#

but u should try them yourself, helps to get somw practice in

prisma karma
woeful shale
woeful shale
#

But will that require those trigo things ?

prisma karma
#

but it requires, cases...

#

draw a perpendicular from A to BC that meet the line BC at H

#

two things will happen:

#
  1. H is outside of the line segment BC
#
  1. H is inside
prisma karma
# prisma karma 1. H is outside of the line segment BC

in the fist case, we may as well assuming H is on the right of C. (if it were on the left of B then the proof is exactly the same, just with B and C swapped)

Now AB^2=BH^2+AH^2>=DH^2+AH^2=DA^2 Thus since length are positive, AB>=DA and so AD<= max(AB,AC)

prisma karma
# prisma karma 2. H is inside

in the second case, we might as well assume D is on BH (if D is on CH th proof is the same just with B,C swapped)

Now AB^2=BH^2+AH^2>=DH^2+AH^2=DA^2 Thus since length are positive, AB>=DA and so AD<= max(AB,AC)

#

Thus we have shown that AD<=max(AB,AC)

#

i stopped writing len(AB) and just wrote AB (mainly cuz i wanna go to bed soon)

#

Anyways this is the proof to the Lemma, and you can use it to solve the original question

Question 4

dense lark
honest perch
#

what

dense lark
#

can you send till where you have done?

barren fjord
#

I did the first two parts

#

I and ii

dense lark
honest perch
dense lark
#

alr solving it rn for you, I'll send the pic once im done

barren fjord
stone shale
honest perch
#

but then u got a polynomial u can solve for cos((2n+1)pi/12)

dense lark
#

hey @barren fjord

stone shale
loud wren
safe radishBOT
dense lark
#

did you take in account in which quadrant the cos is lying, so acc to that their values turn positive nd negative?

barren fjord
#

I still don’t get it

dense lark
barren fjord
#

Yh

dense lark
#

so 1/12 pi is 15 degree

stone shale
dense lark
#

nd 5/12 pi is like 5*15

#

which is 75 degree

#

then 7/12 pi is 105

honest perch
#

why are you converting them to degrees

dense lark
#

and finally 11/12 pi is 55 degree

dense lark
honest perch
#

?

dense lark
honest perch
#

watch your mouth

#

xD

stone shale
dense lark
#

which are easy

loud wren
#

its 165 is it not

dense lark
dense lark
#

right?

honest perch
loud wren
#

and 11/12pi=(pi-1/12pi)

dense lark
#

same logic, but you multiply 11 in the numerator

loud wren
#

15*11 is not 55

dense lark
#

mb

barren fjord
loud wren
#

cos(pi-x)=-cos(x)

honest perch
#

explicitly

loud wren
barren fjord
#

Ohhhhh

loud wren
barren fjord
#

Pi/4 3pi/4 between 0 and pi for the quadratic

#

I didn’t get exact values for the quartic

loud wren
honest perch
#

sure you could do this but the question wants you to use the previous parts

barren fjord
loud wren
barren fjord
#

Solve as a quadratic

#

(Root6+root2)/4

#

As one of my solutions

loud wren
#

which theta value did it correspond to?

barren fjord
#

Ah pi/12

dense lark
#

so 1/12 pi is 15 degree--(1)
nd 5/12 pi is like 75 --(2)
then 7/12 pi is 105--(3)
and finally 11/12 pi is 165 degree--(4)

now we know some certain values of cos
now we split the degree values INTO the degree values of cos we are already familiar with by basic arithimatic addition and subtraction
for (1)
we do cos15= cos(60-45) ----(a)
for (2)
we do cos 75 = cos(60+15) [which we got from (a)]
for (3)
we do cos105=cos(60+45)
and lastly for (4)
we do cos165=cos(180-15) [which we got from (a)]

Lastly while putting the values we will take quadrants into account (which I leave for you to do) and jst multiple them alll

#

finally

barren fjord
#

5pi/12 7pi/12 11pi/12 there we go

#

So it is just roots of polynomials then

#

Multiplying all the roots gets u 1/16

dense lark
#

ah is it cz it says 'Hence find the value'

#

so you gotta take previous two subparts into account?

barren fjord
#

Yh

dense lark
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

so my method is a waste here 🥀

small epoch
barren fjord
#

Do u mean pi/2 or pi/12

#

Where’s that from

dense lark
#

90 degree

small epoch
small epoch
barren fjord
#

U don’t get exact values

shadow moat
#

Basically I want to calculate a daily buy in price that I have a 75% chance of actually hitting per month and then a buy out price which is like 90% chance of exit in 3 day timespan, what maths do I need to learn?

shadow moat
outer pollen
#

probability and statistics, it sounds like.

shadow moat
#

Are there specific types or equations I have essentially no maths skills

main mural
#

there's an entire field called financial mathematics

shadow moat
#

What's the difference between probability and statistics

honest perch
#

just buy and hold bro

main mural
#

just buy low sell high bro

shadow moat
outer pollen
#

in very simplified terms, statistics attempt to derive information and build a model from existing data. probability is more or less the opposite - given a model, predict data.

honest perch
#

don't even sell

main mural
#

TO THE MOOOOOOOOOONNN 🚀

shadow moat
shadow moat
#

How long does it take to learn this

outer pollen
#

that's a very subjective question.

errant ravine
outer pollen
#

I'll let other helpers with more experience answer that one.

shadow moat
#

I basically plan to just hold a portion of bonds to reduce volatility in a mostly etf portfolio

#

And then go 100% equities during the next financial crash

#

So basically looking to buy regularly sell once

honest perch
#

like, there are no inherent probabilities in the financial market

shadow moat
#

And it's a good opportunity to learn a bit by trying to optimise entry and exit

#

Any good resources or books on this?

#

I'll just eyeball my entries for now

Any good resources for learning the maths?

split kayak
# shadow moat Any good resources for learning the maths?

just in advance, youre about to get feet first into one of the most involved topics, but id say you can kinda start by picking up any basic quant trade book, youll probably see a few concepts that you dont understand, and from there you can search up on them.

#

Notice, since there are a lot of companies worth billions that rely on it, this is one of the fields that has the most activity

errant ravine
# main mural -# >pre-uni

-# just because someone is preuni doesnt mean they shouldnt try to or learn to do something especially if they are willing to go through the effort of learning to do it! (but i alaso do agree its gonna pretty hard for them)

split kayak
#

Youll probably want some knowledge on at least calculus and basic notions of real analysis.

#

Apart from probability and statistics.

#

Which all eventually combine into stochastic analysis

shadow moat
#

I taught myself a language and do dense philosophy books for fun so I have confidence I can learn maths too

errant ravine
# shadow moat

-# also just as a small tip when making ur models and stuff it might be helpfull to use past data that you know the outcomes of (but obv dont plug it into ur model) before testing it on live data

errant ravine

#

quant is built upon on the combination of pattern recognition algorithms and stochastic analysis as far as i know, which are two huge topics.

shadow moat
#

Is it simpler if I'm not trying to calculate a future price but instead just the sell price that I have a 1/3 daily chance of hitting today

river pollen
#

overall, the shorter the time period, the less factors come into play, and thus the more you can be sure of your model's prediction

#

so simpler... I guess so?

split kayak
shadow moat
#

I won't have a stop loss

split kayak
#

I cant word how bad of an idea that is

shadow moat
#

It's a fund composed of short duration us treasury bills less than 3 months and no leverage

#

Extremely low voloatility

split kayak
#

If i might add, outside of the whole math thing, if you want to pick up inversion, go for safe long-term markets

errant ravine
shadow moat
#

I mostly want to buy SP500 and similar products but concerned we're close to the end of a bubble so I want to hold bonds for 40-60% of my portfolio though I am looking into a little value investing for fun long term

#

The only way I'd get ruined holding short duration US treasury bonds is if Russia turns America into glass

#

For added context this is the asset

@lean otter Has your question been resolved?

I GOT IT, $DF=CE=NE$ and $FM=FB=ED$, so $NED$ is congruent to $DFM$. $\angle{FDM}+\angle{EDN}=\angle{FDM}+\angle{FMD}=180^\circ-\angle{DFM}=180^\circ-90^\circ-\angle{DFB}=90^\circ-\angleCAB=90^\circ-\angle{EDF}$. Finally

carmine steeple
#

How will I do this question? This is like impossible

outer pollen
#

hint: if you let the original width of the cardboard be, say, x, then you can express everything in this problem in terms of x and work out the value of x this way.

carmine steeple
#

I did that

outer pollen
#

then please show your work.

carmine steeple
#

I made the lenght (2x-8) and (x-8)

#

ik the height of the box is going to be 4

#

but idk what i need to do next

outer pollen
#

you know the volume of the box.

carmine steeple
#

oh yeah

#

wai

#

so i can put it as

#

2400 = (2x-8)(x-8)(4)

#

right?

#

then i solve for x

outer pollen
#

correct.

carmine steeple
#

how would I solve this

#

do i use the quad formula

outer pollen
#

you can.

carmine steeple
#

ur intimidating me

#

but alr

#

give me a second

outer pollen
carmine steeple
#

seems like ur pissed at me for being dumb lol

outer pollen
#

I don't think I would be helping if I did, but either way I'll step back to avoid further misunderstandings.

carmine steeple
#

? ok

prisma karma
#

so I can continue where u were left off

carmine steeple
#

uhh i coul copy and paste it for u

#

I made the lenght (2x-8) and (x-8)
ik the height of the box is going to be 4
Volume = 2400cm^2
2400 = (2x-8)(x-8)(4)

#

thats all

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

yes

prisma karma
#

so we just gotta solve for x

carmine steeple
#

yes

prisma karma
#

well there are a couple things u can do first

#

u can divide both sides by some constant

#

so the numbers are smaller and easier to work with

#

like both sides are multiples of 4 arent it

carmine steeple
#

i was gonna devide both sides by like 4

#

oh yeah

#

read my mind

prisma karma
#

cuz 2x-8 has a 2

candid wraith
carmine steeple
#

wait hwat how

#

mb guys math is my worst subject

candid wraith
#

2x-8

#

is basically

#

2(x-4)

#

cus that expands to 2x-8

carmine steeple
#

right

prisma karma
candid wraith
#

so 2(x-4)(x-8)(4)=8(300)

carmine steeple
#

right

carmine steeple
#

wait im confused now

candid wraith
#

lets replace (2x-8) with 2(x-4)

carmine steeple
#

yes

#

i understand urs

candid wraith
#

2(4)(x-4)(x-8)

carmine steeple
#

i dont realllt get qwerty

candid wraith
#

2*4=8

carmine steeple
#

right

candid wraith
#

so we can replace 2*4 with 8

carmine steeple
#

ik taht

candid wraith
#

8(x-4)(x-8)

prisma karma
#

so i got (x-4)(x-8)8

carmine steeple
#

right

carmine steeple
prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

2400 = 8(x-4)(x-8) (4)

#

?

prisma karma
#

is that a typo?

carmine steeple
#

uh

#

no

#

im confused

#

bec

#

the origional thing

#

2400 = (2x-8)(x-8)(4)

#

is this no?

prisma karma
#

yeah

carmine steeple
#

and htne

#

when we get the 8

prisma karma
#

we then factored out a 2

#

and we multiplied the 2 with the 4 we had to get the 8

#

So (2x-8)(x-8)(4)=(2)(x-4)(x-8)(4)=(8)(x-4)(x-8)

#

i think you might've forgotten to remove the 4 after combining it with the 2 to get 8

carmine steeple
#

OHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

no wonder why

#

ok

#

so after that

#

2400 = 8(x-4)(x-8)

#

its just this

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

but im gonna get a fraction

prisma karma
#

cuz it doesn't change nothin but makin our equation simpler

carmine steeple
#

no?

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

no like

#

4/8

prisma karma
prisma karma
#

8/8=1

carmine steeple
#

no like the 4 inside (x-4)

prisma karma
#

$\frac{8(x-4)(x-8)}{8}=(x-4)(x-8)$ right?

flat frigateBOT
#

qwertytrewq

prisma karma
#

we are dividing the right side as a whole by 8

#

for example if i write 64=8*4*2

carmine steeple
#

so would i just cancel out

#

the 8 infront of the thing

#

when i divide

candid wraith
#

ye

prisma karma
#

if you divide every tem by 8 you'd get 8=1*1/2*1/4

#

which would be a pretty wrong equation lol

carmine steeple
#

wait so

prisma karma
#

so you should really divide both side as a whole by 8

carmine steeple
#

300= (x-4)(x-8)

#

would be the thing

prisma karma
#

oh nv

#

m

#

typo i guess

carmine steeple
#

?

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

its right

#

?

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

nonono

prisma karma
#

but ig its just a typo

#

anyways this is right

carmine steeple
#

OMDS YES BRO

#

ok

#

now what do i do

prisma karma
#

300=(x-4)(x-8) is right

carmine steeple
#

yes

#

now do i like expand it

prisma karma
#

but u can use a calculator right?

#

then u should be bing chilling

carmine steeple
#

yeah

#

okok

carmine steeple
#

i can do that?

#

300=(x-4)(x-8)

prisma karma
#

just expand, put it into the form of ax^2+bx+c=0

carmine steeple
#

how would i use quad

#

OH

candid wraith
carmine steeple
#

okok thanks

#

that makes sense

prisma karma
carmine steeple
#

okokok

#

thanks guys

elder lagoon
#

idk how to prove 3..
cuz if i sub the point A coordinates in my P2 eqn it doesnt satisfy.

(P2 : 4x + y -2z = 5)

rancid lion
#

How does it not satisfy?

elder lagoon
#

4(3) + 2 - 2(7) = 5.
12 + 2 -14 = 5
0 != 5.

rancid lion
#

there exists only one plane that is the perpendicular bisector plane of segment BC

rancid lion
#

A is not related to plane P2

elder lagoon
#

right?

rancid lion
#

no

elder lagoon
#

A & B.

elder lagoon
rancid lion
#

If A satisfies the equation for P2 then A has to lie on P2

elder lagoon
rancid lion
#

no

elder lagoon
#

huh?

elder lagoon
# rancid lion no

are you telling me to find cross prodct and see if the normal of the plane and it match?

rancid lion
#

lemme ask you

#

how did you find the answer for (2)

elder lagoon
#

for 2 or 3.

#

i went from Back

rancid lion
#

???

elder lagoon
rancid lion

chịu

elder lagoon
rancid lion
#

what statements have you answered

#

@elder lagoon

elder lagoon
rancid lion
#

ok so how do you know a line segment intersects a plane or not

elder lagoon
#

wait dont tell me it shows sign change when u sub the points

#

in

#

the plane eqn

ye you got the idea

patent citrus
safe radishBOT
patent citrus
#

i will tell what im doing

#

can anyone correct me

outer pollen
#

for future helpers: please show your work then.

patent citrus
#

i just had an idea

#

like

#

umm

#

its wrong

#

very wrong but

#

ill show give me a min

buoyant shadow
#

i don;t see any way but a whole lot of cases

outer pollen
#

I'll let frowny take over then. all the best OP.

buoyant shadow
#

well 2 cases, we can take 3 3 2 2 or 4 2 2 2 balls

patent citrus
buoyant shadow
#

hm

patent citrus
#

tho the answer is only in 4 digits

#

thats why i said

#

its very wrong

buoyant shadow
#

uh

#

it should overcount not undercount

#

strange

patent citrus
buoyant shadow
#

anyway there's 6 ways to take 2 balls from a box, like you found

#

how many ways to take 3

patent citrus
#

um

buoyant shadow
#

3×2 if we take 2 red, and 3 if we take 2 blue, so total 9

#

,calc (9)(9)(6)(6)(6)

flat frigateBOT
#

Result:

17496
patent citrus
#

why '6' 3 times

buoyant shadow
#

another times 6 because we choose 2 boxes where we take 3 balls

#

4c2

patent citrus
#

ah

#

yeah

buoyant shadow
patent citrus
#

so we had to make cases and solve

#

...

patent citrus
#

lol

#

but it looks pretty right to me

#

idk why

#

since all balls are distinct

buoyant shadow
#

oh because it's not ×4 it's 4th power

#

6×6×6×6 obv

patent citrus
#

oh

#

shit

buoyant shadow
#

now how many ways to take 4 balls

#

2+3=5

#

we leave any one ball, 5 ways

#

,calc 17496 + (5)(6)(6)(6)(4)

flat frigateBOT
#

Result:

21816
patent citrus
#

yeah

#

thats the final ans

#

ill go through it once more then close

#

if that works

spiral saddle
safe radishBOT
spiral saddle
#

I proved that if a in N satisfies a = 3 (mod 4) then there exists a prime p with p = 3 (mod 4)

#

such that p | a

dusk halo
#

so you need help with the infinitely many part?

spiral saddle
#

the Hint has two parts we need to prove, I only proved the first part of the hint

dusk halo
#

ok so you can prove there are infinite primes that are congruent to 3(mod4) by contradiction

loud wren
spiral saddle
#

unsure

#

i can show what i did for first part of the hint

dusk halo
# spiral saddle unsure

try assuming that there are finite primes, from $p_1$ to $p_n$, and see if you can end up contradicting yourself

flat frigateBOT
#

AMysteriousStranger

loud wren
spiral saddle
#

a = 3 (mod 4)

loud wren
#

k so what can you imply from that

#

specifically regarding the primes dividing a

spiral saddle
#

there exists a prime p = 3 (mod 4)

loud wren
#

and therefore by our assumption?

spiral saddle
#

is false

loud wren
#

how

spiral saddle
#

is false that a is not divisible by any prime congruent to 3 (mod 4)

#

right?

loud wren
#

wut

#

it only has to be one of the prime divisors of a that is congruent 3 mod 4 for a to be congruent 3 mod 4

spiral saddle
loud wren
#

hmm

loud wren
#

you're supposed to prove the "finite primes" part is false

loud wren
#

hmm

spiral saddle
#

wut

loud wren
#

do you want to try to prove it directly instead, i think i took a longer route

spiral saddle
#

yes

loud wren
#

k

#

convert the statement "then a... congruent to 3 mod 4" into a mathematical statement

spiral saddle
#

wut

loud wren
#

into like a mod statement regarding a and the p_i

spiral saddle
#

if there were only finely many primes congruent to 3(mod 4), say p1,p2,...,pn then a = -1 + 4prod(1,n) pi would be greater than 1 and not divisible by any prime congruent to 3(mod 4)

loud wren
#

k

#

what are those "primes congruent to 3 mod 4" in the last part of your statement

loud wren
#

k

spiral saddle
#

pi | a

loud wren
#

so what do we want to show

spiral saddle
#

there are no finely many primes cong to 3 m 4

loud wren
loud wren
spiral saddle
#

-1 mod a

loud wren
#

closer

#

but uh we can't rly take anything mod a right

#

what can you take instead

spiral saddle
#

who tf knows at this point

loud wren
#

uhh

#

you did get rly close i can say that

#

but if $a=-1+4\prod_{i=1}^np_i$ then $a\equiv -1\mod (?)$

flat frigateBOT
loud wren
#

what's the ? here

spiral saddle
#

can't be 4

loud wren
#

so what could it be

spiral saddle
#

p

loud wren
#

ye

#

$a\equiv -1\mod p_i$

flat frigateBOT
loud wren
#

we have this directly right

loud wren
spiral saddle
loud wren
#

hmm

#

why

spiral saddle
loud wren
#

bc a=-1+4p1p2p3...pn

#

so a mod p1 = (-1+4p1p2p3...pn) mod p1 = -1+(4p2p3...pn)p1 mod p1 = -1

#

etc.

spiral saddle
loud wren
#

its the statement we were trying to prove

#

i gtg do smth sry

Determine if $y^5-x^2y+x$ in $F(x)[y]$ where $F$ is a field is irreducible

flat frigateBOT
#

what a wonderful world(wai)

desert pasture
#

My first thought was einestien

#

My only thought wwould be to consider some prime ideal, and proceed

#

perhaps the converse?

#

if $f(x)$ is reducible in $R[x]$ then $a_0$ is an element of $P^2$ or $a_{n-1},\dots, a_0$ are all elements of $P$?

#

Does that sound right

flat frigateBOT
#

what a wonderful world(wai)

desert pasture
#

but that doesn't help us does it

unique thicket
#

F(x) is a field

desert pasture
#

yea

#

oh

#

right

unique thicket
#

instead you should think about rational root theorem

desert pasture
#

yes, just realised

#

Thanks!

desert pasture
#

wouldn't it

unique thicket
#

uhhh yeah it wouldn't rule out 3 + 2 = 5

#

i'm actually not quite sure how to deal with 3 + 2

#

maybe you could consider a quadratic extension

unique thicket
#

the problem is that this only detects linear factors

desert pasture

I'll look at some extensions I suppose

I'll close this for now

how do i find an inverse matrice with gausian method

ember lark
#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

wait some time

ember lark

#

okay its fine

#

just dont immediately ping

ember lark

#

thanks!

hidden gyro
hidden gyro
ember lark
#

but i need to use gausian method specificly

#

or whatever

hidden gyro
ember lark
prisma elk
#

But it is slow at least I think

ember lark
#

i don't think it's correct but i think there is another step or sum

prisma elk

wait

like i am seriosly so lost

# prisma elk But it is slow at least I think

In this video, we will discuss how to determine the inverse of a matrix using the Cofactor method. We will briefly give the definition and work out an example for 3 x 3 matrix in detail. We will show the calculations step by step and verify these using #MATLAB.

ember lark
#

THE DET A AND ADJ A THING RIGHT?

prisma elk
#

Yea, you just split your 3x3 matrix into a bunch of 2x2 and find its determinant

ember lark
#

i see it now,but this is the gausian method still right?

prisma elk
#

after finding its determinant, apply the sign matrix

prisma elk
#

to your matrix

#

to make the left side look like the right side

ember lark
#

but the thing said to use Gauss Jordan method to solve it

prisma elk
#

and check with the other method that I sent

ember lark
#

I think the equation is set up wrong or sum

prisma elk
#

sent

ember lark
#

cs idk how to do it with just elimination

ember lark
prisma elk
#

So what is your question sorry?

#

like how you do it or what?

ember lark
#

like isn't gausian method just elimination?

prisma elk
#

yes

ember lark
#

like don't i need some sort of answer on the right to get any value on x,y,z

prisma elk
#

you will get something that

#

since you have inverse

#

the inverse will be on the right side

#

and the identity on the left

#

You are just trying to the left side the identity matrix and right side becomes your inverse

#

does that make sense?

ember lark
#

i understand yes

#

but

#

can this only be done with the adj a and det a thing

ember lark
#

is that what the gauss jordan method is here

#

like this is the part that's confusing me

#

just that

ember lark
ember lark
prisma elk
#

this is gaus jordan elimination

ember lark
#

i get it now

#

What am I doing wrong here?

#

I always get this problem, the object gall not found etc etc

#

Is this like a Google Sheets problem?

#

Interesting.

#

This is out of my scope sorry, but what happen if you apply it on Sheets, or on Excel?

#

They do have mean calculations.

#

Its been ages since I used R but

#

Dont you have it mixed up on the lm function

#

Like

#

It needs to be lm(gall ~ wall) not the other way around

#

LOL

#

Lemme try that

#

So that wasn't the answer hahah

#

Wwll I still think thats a correct change
