How do I find n
you can use the same way you did bro
I tried but I got 6^2 = (5+n) x n
(-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
@dense sierra
Do I have to use (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a) to find the solution
yes
Proof: 9n - 4n = 5n. 9n x -4 = -36
n(n+9) -4(n+9) = 0
cross n+9
Leaving me with (n+9) (n-4) = 0
I was just stick to this now and find the solution

how to do this using comparison test ?
do some root conjugate shenanigans on this to rewrite the general term as $$\frac{2}{\sqrt{n+2}(\sqrt{n+1} + \sqrt{n-1})}$$ then recognize that this is $\Theta(1/n)$ and so should probably diverge by comparison with $1/n$ (up to a constant) from \textit{below}
Ann
can i do limit comparison in this case ?
if i remove constants from denominator i end up with 1/n
sure
if you want to do limit comparison then go for it
unless there's an explicit instruction that says to use something else
or to NOT use limit comparison
when im doing limit comparison i can use any series ?
why we are comparing it with 1/n
presumably because that's the only thing you could reasonably go with for a limit comparison that wouldn't give you an inconclusive result
and because, again, your series is seen to be Theta(1/n), so that is what it makes sense to compare it to.
what do you mean by inconclusive result ?
like if you get that a_n/b_n -> 0 but \sum b_n diverges
or a_n/b_n -> infty but \sum b_n converges
nothing can be said about a_n from that

@sacred quiver Has your question been resolved?
You can first simplify the numerator and denominator separately
so for the numerator:
$\frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{x^3\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}\newline \frac{x^2\left(x \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}\right)}{x^2\cdot x^3\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}$
damn
Big xdddd
$\frac{\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}{x^2\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}$
Big xdddd
Big xdddd
ok
nvm
i forgot one thing
$\frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{x^3\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}\newline \frac{x^2\left(x \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}+1\right)}{x^2\cdot x^3\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}$
Big xdddd
$\frac{1+\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}{x^2\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}$
Big xdddd
ok so
can i just divide by the square root
so i tried to simplify and i got
$\frac{1+\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}{x^2+x}$
Big xdddd
this one is wrong
because i took out the x
$\frac{1+x\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x}}}{x^3\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x}}}$
this has to be right
Big xdddd
and can i simplify this more,?
ok
so now trying to simplify denominator
$\frac{1}{x}+\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}$
Big xdddd
this was the denominator
i can write this as
$\frac{1+x\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{x^2}}}{x}$
Big xdddd

How did this happen?
I understand the product rule
x dy/dx + y
But how did 2y * dy/dx come?
Chain rule
I know the chain rule but... I don't see how it got applied here..
Let f(x) = x² and g(x) = y. Then f(g(x)) = y²
Si Arya
hmm
So the outside function (f(x)) is x² and the inside function (g(x)) is y

How do you get that answer
e-(e^-1)-(1-0)
Answer should be e-(1/e)-1
Where does that -1 go?
$$ e^{-0} = e^0 = 1 $$

Because 1 - 1 =0

Hello. i have a qeustion to simplify some sqrts
im stuck on one part that says 3sqrt30
i wrote down 9 bfr but going over it i dont know how i got it.... becuase you cant simplify sqrt 30.
,w factorization of 30
√30 can't be simplified because the power of every prime factors of 30 is 1
yes thats what i see now. but im very confused as to how i got 9 before
3sqrt20 - sqrt50 / 3sqrt30
^ that is whole question
i put 9 as demoninator.
Then you did it wrong

which one of these are you stuck on
so everything except f(-1)?
yes
how did you find f(-1)?
and what's stopping you from applying the exact same principle to find the values of the 5 following questions
i just evaluated it and got -f but im not sure what to do
f(-1) isn't -f
oh
in the context of function notation
f(-1) isn't the product of f and -1
you're given info about f(x),
(as well as the other functions)
to determine f(-1), you can simply substitute x=-1 into
f(x) = 2x - x^2
1
how are you getting 1
1,1 by evaluating and simplifying
what's 1,1 supposed to be
not sure
tell me exactly how your getting the values you're stating
leaving nothing out
typing stuff in full context
evaluating and simplifying
you said you did some evaluating and simplifying
show me exactly what you did
using photomath to solve and learn
well avoid photo math (because its crap)
and try attempting the task i requested of you yourself
to determine f(-1), you can simply substitute x=-1 into
f(x) = 2x - x^2
C?
how are you getting C
tell me exactly how your getting the values you're stating
leaving nothing out
typing stuff in full context
f(1)=2x1-1^2
why are you subbing in 1
x=1
when the question is asking for f(**-**1)
f( minus 1)
and when i also requested that you sub in x= **-**1
although you did correctly determine that f(1) = 1,
that wasn't what the question is asking for
also don't use x for multiplication especially not when the variable x is present

My question is shouldnt question e be n=300sin(pi/3)t+550?
I dont get why theres 60
since 2pi divided by pi/3 is 6
@finite linden Has your question been resolved?
anyone?
@finite linden Has your question been resolved?
so actually pi = 180°. here it's ( sin pi/3 = sin 180/3= sin 60)
did u get it
oh
i dont think i fully got it though
is it both right?
oh i get it now
so there is two ways
60 and pi/3

well, whats f(2)?
-5
whats g(-5)?
sorry i was in the restroom
well how did you find f(2)
repeat the process for g(-5)
if you cant, why not
whats different
i looked what was next to it in paraenthesis
so whats different now?
-5 isnt there
how do you interpret not seeing -5?
no i mean, what does this mean?
that you dont see it there
theyve defined g to be a relation involving those 4 coordinate pairs
but (-5, ?) isnt included in the definition
what does this mean in math vocabulary?
not sure
and i guess specifically why is it a problem if we want to compute, say, g(f(2))
well what do you call something that isnt included in a definition
why cant we do 1/x where x=0?
why do we require all sorts of special dealing with like
undefined
so if the pairs dont
big problem
yea, if its missing from the domain
the function isnt defined there
usually with these, its implied i think that (x,y) gives x~y
so the domain is the first coordinate
well, the collection of first coordinates
if a number is not in the collection of first coordinates, the function is not defined there
so in your case, g is only defined for -3, -1, 0, 1, and 3

Can somebody explain me 40.21b?
they've used the limiting sum of a GP formula in reverse here
wait
should be 1 - x + x^2 - x^3 + x^4 - ... right?
bruh
Okay.
Would you please elaborate this?
yea sure i'll send formula
Thank you 🙂
Yes, understood.
it doesn't follow on from the first step
and doesn't lead to the next step
actually wait i think i see the mistake here
i think they wrote the wrong powers for fourth and fifth terms and forgot to write the "+ ..." to make it clear that this is an infinite series

But how does it turn into 1 still
Read up on substitution for solving integrals.
This is a very fundamental concept.
1*du = du
It doesn't it goes with dx as 2xdx becomes du
In this section we will start using one of the more common and useful integration techniques – The Substitution Rule. With the substitution rule we will be able integrate a wider variety of functions. The integrals in this section will all require some manipulation of the function prior to integrating unlike most of the integrals from the prev...

These kinds of problems give me trouble :/
what is the problem asking, formula for h?
if so, you can assume B != 0 and move everything but h to the other side
multiply by 3, divide by B
again, this assumes B != 0
because we can't divide by 0
I’m still confused
Multiply both sides by 3, then, divide both sides by B, (just remember b not equal to 0 ), this way you isolate h
So 3(v)=1/3bh ( 3) ?
Thats the first step
But u didnt simply the rhs completely yet
Yea the first step I got, idk how to write it afterwards :/
Divide both sides by B
For step 2
3v=bh
Is it 3V = bh after I multiply?
Where b not equal 0
Try to put b=0
And calculate the rhs
😈
So it’s not h=3V/b ? Cause it is one of choices
It is
But under the condition that b not 0
That confuses me lol
Yes thats why
Try putting b=0
Ane calculate what h becomes
I’m still confused
Yes that I understand
And if we assume v,b,h can only take values of real numbers
Then technically you can assign h,v any value but b can be anything but 0
But you cant assign all of 3 of them random values at the same time unless for those values the equality holds💀
See that sounds complicated to me
😞 me too
Especially if it’s only letters & no numbers
Numbers are also letters in a way
Oh yea 1
Why is 2 written the way it is written
If i wanted i could have made the symbol 3 equal to the value 2
😡
Lol okay that sounds more complicated to me
Hopefully I remember how to do it during my exam
Oh no dont do this in an exam
😨

@shadow glade do you mind helping me again? my original question was part of an approach that i tried, but it didnt work. i want to know why my approach doesnt work
what i did was take the area of the small circle divided by the intersection
because the intersection is all of the points that it can be; a side with 1, and two ranging from 0 to 1
how about using law of cosines with c = 1? that's my initial instinct
i dont even get this, how is a random number a point in the plane
you would need gamma > 90
side lengths
oh ok
does this have to do with my diagram or is something else?
Hint: rewrite γ in terms of a and b
seems to be the trend in math teaching these days, they dont bother with precise wording, they should say "let these two numbers be the side lengths of a triangle...blah blah" you are correct in saying that these numbers shouldn't be equated with being the sides themselves
Ι personally don't see the problem but whatever
^
it's not the worst : )
for an obtuse triangle, you have simply that if c is the longest sidelength and a b are the two other ones, a²+b²<=c².
In your exemple, 1 is always the longest side, so your condition should be a²+b²<=1
Do this
This is better actually
yeah thats a lot better
im confused
graph x^2 + y^2 <=1. what do you see?
lol
Is that an open interval or a closed interval
inclusive pretty sure
doesnt matter, the borders have measure =0
circle
It's not a circle
yeah but epiconan has the idea
pay attention to only one interval of the circle
0 < x < 1 and 0 < y < 1
because thats where x and y can be sleected from
Ball
so quarter circle?
you could think of the possible picks that are valid as the quarter circle in quadrant 1, and all possible picks as the 1x1 square from 0,0 to 1,1 so then take the ratios of the areas of those two for your percentage
are you using mathematica for these graphics by the way or what is it?
desmos
aha
that produces any valid triangle
but not necessarily an obtuse triangle
yes
all that is left to do is to find the area of the purple part, because all the possible outputs can be represented as a square with area 1
Ok so now let's set this up as a double integral
lol
do you really need to?
i think it's a joke
its just a circle and a segment...
pi/4 - 1/2 right?
and the problem asks for a final answer of 4p
so just π - 2
thanks this makes sense
np
oh that was originally meant as a solution to this problem? interesting
i tried to take the circle divided by the intersection
yes
what was your reasoning behind that idea? i dont quite follow
wait were you trying to find the area in between the 2 circles?
yes sooshon and some other ppl helped me in another channel. i thought that would lead to the solution to this problem but it didnt
because you do have a correct approach(the drawing)
so, the intersection represents all of the possible triangles right?
well
because the radii are 1, so any point inside of them will be between 0 and 1
trying to find the set of all triangles that work is a different problem
while this might seem annoying, you can consider one half of the intersection
really bad drawing
my reasoning is that the set of all triangles would be in the denominator of the problem (bc it's asking for probability)
and then to find the ones that are obtuse, i take the ones inside of the small circle
or does all of this not make any sense
i thought you were trying to find the area of the intersection of circles
we found that
we did all that earlier lol #help-16 message
[4pi - 3sqrt(3)]/12
you don't need to worry about cases of triangles for finding area
he didnt present it in the context of this problem back then, just as a geometry problem
the probability that it is a obtuse triangle is:
area that leads to obtuse / total area
but why does that intersection of the 2 circles represent the probability that it is obtuse?
do you mean the small circle?
there isn't a small circle in the diagram
intersection of two circles is total area right?
well what area are you claiming represents the probability that it's an obtuse triangle
and what total area are you referring to?
sorry for being unclear
here
blue circle = obtuse area
red intersection = total area
are you talking about all the triangles with its base as this line?
ah ok im kinda starting to see how you were thinking about this
i think you might be trying to say that the if the 3rd vertex of such a triangle is within(not on) the blue circle, you are right
but does the red area really represent all triangles, regardless of what type?
the two center points in the two triangles are two points of the triangle, and are a distance of 1 away. anywhere inside the red intersection refers to a possibility for a triangle, side lengths wont exceed 1.
the reason the blue circle represents obtuse area is that um....i know if it is on the blue circle it is 90, and it seemed intuitive that if i go inside then it will become obtuse
yeah im buying this now
yes yes yes
i think
mb
all triangles in the bound of this problem, because side lengths 0 to 1
wouldnt the solution be just half of the small circle though, since the side lengths on the bottom of the circle would just be reflections of the side lengths on the top right?
like these two triangles would have same side lengths
wdym
but i guess ratios of areas would be same if youre looking at just half or whole thing so never mind, doesn't really matter
yeah
i think one problem is that all points in each circle don't equally map to the red square/quarter circle in the plane
which messes up the areas
is it missing area or have extra area?
by the way do you have access to the correct answer to this problem? was our previous solution correct?
yes the answer is pi - 2 and you guys got it correct
in fact the solution presented (on aops) is the same as yours
im intrigued by this two circle thing idea though
it would be quite interesting and seems like it should work
send me the link to the aops problem, I still don't see why the red area isn't 2/3 * (pi - sqrt(3))
or at least show a screenshot
including the original problem
wait that was the original problem?
oh so your strategy was to do the 2 intersecting circles
yes
this is what we got for red area in our last channel
although the incorrect answers i answered were something else
if i were to do blue/red i would get this:
i think the way you randomly pick triangles ends up being different than picking the sides separately
hm
how come
as i said before, the red circle doesn't equally map to the red square
do you know that because the areas are different?
are you saying that if i did it correctly, the red area shold simply be 1
take the set of triangles such that x<1 and y<1(red circle as well as red square)
no, the red area in the circle woudn't be 1
ik im doing something wrong
ohhhh i see
back to what i was saying
if you geometrically try to create the set of triangles by using circles, it won't work because the drawing causes x and y to be dependent on each other
if you use the coordinate plane, x and y won't be dependent on each other if you try to calculate probabilities
at this point what i am saying is getting less and less comprehensible for me, so I won't try to go into the details(i have the intuition that it is true, but i don't know a rigorous proof)
but each circle has it's freedom to be any length they want though
how would they be dependent
for every single length of circle one there is every single length of circle two
well ok
when you are using the circles, you are randomly generating the angle
not the sides
and going from sides to angle doesn't produce a perfect linear mapping
so areas get messed up
very interesting
i dont know about that, this feels like it should work
its like trying to compare cos(x) and x ig?
when you take cos(x) some output areas are more dense than others
i dont know why you think you are "generating an angle", every point in the diagram corresponds to some chosen length of one side and a chosen length of the other side
true
i dont see it as fundamentally different than the previous solution
i wish i could animate like 3blue1brown lol
😄
if you take 2 pieces of the red circle and map them to 2 pieces on the coordinate plane, those 2 pieces could have different area in the plane
@half cliff if you were to first pick the length of first side, you will have a circle of different possibilities. then, when you make the third side, you can make any side length for the third one
yes
doesnt that mean that they arent dependent
it does cover all points
sorry for that
that was bad reasoning
but now i realize whats really going on
then what is the problem? i dont fully understand
your choice
now im playing with geogebra website : )
they have a nice straightedge and compass construction tool
bruh desmos doesn't allow nested lists
looks like i have to do this on python matplotlob >:(
just making sure that this solution is actually wrong, the area of the blue circle is pi/4 and area of red intersection is [4pi - 3sqrt(3)]/6
right?
and probability is just blue/red
what are you trying to do with lists?
im trying to show how all the points get mapped from the red circle intersection to the square
could it be possible that the red part is correct, but it's actually the blue circle that is wrong?
because my reasoning for that was very weak
im willing to bet theres a way to solve it using this idea, but we just aren't seeing something
but im gonna call it a night for now, if you ever solve it using this please @ me because i find it interesting
good luck : )
good night
@full fiber Has your question been resolved?
this is a bad graph
what are your conclusions?
but its pretty clear that these points won't perfectly map to these points:
the reason why you get different areas is because some parts of the circle have different point densities, so taking the area of some part circle will actually contain more or less possibilities than it should, while taking a section of the square does correspond to reandomly choosing x and y
i think the circle is euqivalent to choosing the angle ut im not sure
either way it gets messed up
@shadow glade
the red points in both graphs represent x and y from 0 to1 (intervals of 0.1)
i see
what do you mean by probability densities
idk
i think i messed up something in my code
either the intervals are not good enough or whatever
but i think most of those points are "non"-triangles
so don't worry about that
i think the densities are the same though
focus on the points not stuck on the x axis
some are slightly more packed than others
like where
i dont rlly see a difference but ill just take your word for it
but even if there is, why does it matter
can you elaborate on this
do you understand what it means to map one set of points to another?
no
...
than i don't really know what to do
hope sooshon can explain the concept
its getting late for me too

one final thing. there are more points to help now. in the circle graph, the points aren't evenly spaced, but they are in the square one(the graphs are stretched). you only get the true probability if you calculate the area of a set where possibilities are "evenly spaced". As you take the limit to 0 between for the space between adjacent points, it should be the same for all points when you use an x and y axis, but not with the circle method.

Hi, I know that the number of compositions of an natural number is 2^(n-1). Given an array = 1,1,2,2,4,4,...,2^k,2^k (k = 0,1,2,...,26). What is the number of compositions of an natural number representing by this array ?
the way you have phrased this is not super clear
send a photo or a screenshot of the question please
is this array supposed to be a composition of the some number?
Sorry, let's me write again.
For any non-negative k = 0,1,2,3,…. There are exactly 2 coins of value n = 2^k. For a given M, how to calculate the number of different ways that can represent M with the coins?
For example, M = 6 then there are 3 ways {1,1,2,2},{1,1,4}, and {2,4}
So, you're saying that there are exactly 54 coins in total
just to make sure i understand
No sorry, I calculate wrong. As M is up to 10^18
well 2^26 is very big
So I am trying to find a recursive way to calculate this by a program.
the first thing you should do is determine what the biggest coin you can use is
oh wait, recursive?
Yes
you want to start doubling M and looking at how the partitions change
lets look at M = 3
M = 3 only has 1 way, {1,2}
so for M = 6, we take double of those coins, {1,1,2,2}, but we can also pair up the two 2s to get {1,1,4}. now that there are 2s available, we can also pair up the 1s
i think actually starting with odd numbers is going to be the best
because we have to use exactly one copy of 1
then our hand is forced
for example, M = 7
we need to make 6 with at most 1 copy of 1
i might now be being very clear but i hope im getting some of my idea across
Yeah I get it somehow
i have a feeling there is something special happening at 3 and 7
*1,3 and 7
this is really interesting problem
feel like I get something but still not
theres actually more recursion happening
my best advice is to start writing down all the partitions for values of M starting at 1, and pick an ordering that you write them in so that you have a system, and dont miss any

i’m not exactly sure what “From a point 35m from the base of the building and level with the base” means
level with the base basically just means that its on the same horizontal plane
Exactly what it says on the tin.
like its not on a hill or smth
Walk from the base of the tower to a point 35 m away.
And that point is at the same height as the base of the building.
im gonna have a math test soon, can anyone help me?
aight
also, what does angle of elevation of the top is 72.5 mean
lmao he answered ur question before you even asked it

How to calculate the base instead of the exponent using logarithm?
,rccw
Ann
that is an eight???
Yea
does not look like an eight at all
but whatever
i am assuming that g is supposed to be the base?
so you wrote $g^{-3} = \frac{1}{8}$
Ann
which is correct based on what you've said so far
Yes
and what is troubling you from here?
How to calculate g
if it was raised to a positive power would you know what to do?
Remove the negative and the 1?
no, not what i'm asking
let me give you a similar but different equation:
$z^5 = 92$
do you know how to solve this equation?
Ann
No
I’ve started logarithm like 3 days ago
otherwise you would've had no trouble going from $z^5 = 92$ to $z = 92^{1/5}$
Ann
Aah
I know that root of x is x^1/2
Or 1/2*x is squareroot of z
x
Cube root is 1/3
Oh
So
,rotate
yes

So first of all you're supposed to make the terms subject to the "square roots" into non-negative (as you're clearly not dealing with sqrt of negative terms)
No both are not done
Im asking where is the mistake in my process
oh
that
that's because you got a bit hasty
6x - 24 ≤ 0 and not ≥ 0

Where is this on the solution, i dont remember exactly ☠️
Wait let me open the copy
hmm? yep you still have the inequality sign wrong
And the other one?
hmm lemme see
Yes i got the correct ans for the 1st one now
