hi
so ive got a maths test tomorrow on all of these topics
Angles between parallel lines
Averages
Bearings
Best Buys
Compound Measures
Converting between metric units
Expanding Brackets
Factors and Multiples
Fraction, Decimals & Percentages
Ordering Integers
Perimeter, Area and Volume
Pie Charts
Place value
Probability
Real Life Graph
Ratio and Proportion
Simplifying Expressions
Standard Form
Solving Equations
Transformation
my knowledge for half of them is lacking
is there anything that can be done
i guess you could get some of the other ones out of the way, but uhh trying to get all of that done at this point seems rather pointless
id focus on solidifying what you do know to make sure you'll at least get that, as for the rest, hope is little
but if you already know the tougher ones, you could skim through the easier ones but again it all just depends
name some easier ones
i already know for the last questions
its gonna be
impossible
depends on whether they know the easier ones or tougher ones and how well they know them
Ordering Integers is really easy
i think
the one that will cause me the most trouble
is fractions decimals and percentages
like if its something like
a mixed fraction multiplied by another or divided
il be lost
like $\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{3}}$?
FancyBredFries
no what the fuck is that lol
i mean
like
its easy ngl i just forgot how to do it
lemme find a pic
maybe something like this
if these fractions were not mixed, would you know what to do? Y/N
what fancy gave you was a simpler version of this
right
thats easy
do you know how to convert to and from mixed fractions?
ok then that's something for you to review
"convert between mixed and improper fractions" on youtube
i think most of my marks are gonna be for working out
because i remember most the methods
i just think ill slip up
it is also a higher paper so im pretty fucked but ill try my best
there isnt much you could do for that at this point, except making sure that you well rested, confident and making sure you thoroughly review your answers
whats a higher paper?
fair
in england there are foundation classes and higher classes
basically lower ability and higher ability
also what are some topics you dont know?
ngl bearings always get me
i just guess for those questions
its like the boat moved 30 degrees mark where it is
or smth like thta
that should not be that hard either, if you are careful with what the question says. review the main rules and a few questions

can i help you ?
if youd like but im starting to live with the fact i'll never understand it
friend showed me some graph thats like
AE + BG for just entry A which is...?
you wanna get A B
put A and B like this
then you'll do the intersection of lines and colons ( sorry for mistakes in english )
in the circle
( 1 * 2 ) + ( 3 * 10 )
2 + 30
ohhh okay
thats..a confusing way to do it but i see the pattern now
yes but its easier in the beginning
i think
just be careful because AB different BA
got it tyvm man
np ^^'
@shrewd crow Has your question been resolved?
When the function variable is changed from f(x) to f(x+2), its graph will move 2 units to the left, if it were f(x - 2), it will move to the right. This is due to properties of the graphs of functions. Finally, if the graph of f(x) intersects the X axis at (-7, 0) and (-3, 0), then f(x + 2) would intersect the x-axis at (-9, 0) and (-5, 0). For the other thing about f(-x), when you put the variable in its negative form, the graph of its function is inverted with respect to the Y axis, as if it were a mirror. So, if f(x) cuts the x-axis at (-7, 0) and (-3, 0), then f(-x) would cut the x-axis at (7, 0) and (3, 0).

how do i simplify the dot product of (2x-3y) dot (4x+5y)?
are x and y numbers?
no
the dot product of sums expands similarly as numbers do
$(u + v) \cdot w = u \cdot w + v \cdot w$
riemann
and $(a u) \cdot v = a (u \cdot v)$
riemann
ive gotten to a point where its
8|x|^2 - 2xy - 15|y|^2
but im not sure if thats entirely right or if and how to simplify it further
looks right
is that the furthest it can go?
yes

Hello, I'm reviewing studying some linalg for a robotics class midterm and am looking at these basis and dimension examples. I'm confused about the difference between the first and second one. How exactly does this notation work? does (C,C) only mean the complex part of complex numbers? Also I haven't taken a linear algebra class so this is pretty confusing for me
(A,B) is considering A as a vector space over B
You can consider C as both a vector space over C or over R
B here is just "where do your scalars in the scalar multiplication come from"
could you explain what it means for a vector space to be over another in simple terms
Literally this
Viewing C as vector space over C, our scalar mult comes from C, so all we need is 1 and we can get any complex number by just scalar multiplying 1 by the complex number we want
If we view C as a vector space over R, we can only multiply by real numbers
We can't just have 1 as a basis as nothing we multiply 1 by will give us say 3+4i as we have to multiply by a real number
So we also need i in the basis (for example, bases aren't unique)
gonna have to put a pause on this but i might reopen a help later, do you mind if i ping you in it? got a meeting rn
I will likely be asleep, plenty of helpers know LA though
There is also #linear-algebra

for this i set vector u = < 7, 8, -4 > and vector v = < -4, 7, 8 >
then i found the dot product to be -4, and the product of their magnitudes is 129. So arccos(-4/129) is 1.602 radians, right?
<@&286206848099549185>
i just did the problem again and saw that it says acute angle. So should the dot product be positive 4 instead of -4? Doing so makes it so that the angle is 1.540 radians, is this correct?

this is not equal right
where -1 is the preimage
why do you think that
maybe C has values that arent in the range of f?
Let f : X → Y be a function, let A, B ⊆ X and let C, D ⊆ Y
doesnt say X = Y
ok can you give an example?
you had really great insight here, but now i think you've become sort of confused 
its okay. try to come up with sets X,Y, a function f : X --> Y, and a set C \subseteq Y using this reasoning
i mean wouldnt c just have values that arent a subset of X
C is a subset of Y, so it always (if X \neq Y at least) has values that aren't a subset of X
well Denascite asked you for an example
to show that f(f^{-1}(C)) is not always equal to C
that means you have to come up with specific sets X,Y, a specific function f : X --> Y, and a specific subset C of Y such that f(f^{-1(C)) does not equal C
so you can make X and Y different in your example if you want. or you could make them the same
oh like a counter example to prove c isnt a subset
yeah, a counterexample to the claim "for all sets X,Y and functions f : X --> Y, if C is a subset of Y then f(f^{-1}(C)) = C"
well if C is bigger then any subset of X thne the counter example holds
im ngl preimage always messes with me
you have to produce specific, well-defined functions and sets to form a counterexample.
well, you should probably come up with some sets and function f between them first, then see if you can choose a subset C of the codomain such that f(f^{-1}(C)) does not equal C
if you can't, you have to think about why you can't
using your nice insight to guide you
its hard arbitrarily
i feel like you can probably think of some sets and a function between them
@cinder owl Has your question been resolved?
C = {1,2, 3, 4}, f(-1) = 1, f(-2) = 2?
So f is defined on {-1, -2}? What is the codomain of f?
actually no im genuinely so confused
like you would need to define x and y to have a counter example right
yeah you need a function f : X —> Y and X and Y have to be specified
Pog. That works 
f(f^{-1}({-1,1})) = {1} ⊂ {-1,1}
For some general theory: if f is surjective, they ARE equal for all C
And in general f(f^{-1}(C)) = C ∩ im f
Where im f is the image (or range) of f
also do you have any tips on proving surjectivity i always find it difficult for some reason
idk it probably depends a bit on the situation, but usually you just have to show it directly
i proved injectivity fine here but struggling to do surjectivity
It might be easier to do the contrapositive for the backward direction
Which is the inverse of the forward direction
It says if and only if
So you have to prove if f is surjective, then that thing is true. And if that thing is true, then f is surjective
rip i dont think i fully did injectivity correctly then
yeah theres no injectivity in this proof. I assumed you meant a very similar theorem that you didn’t send when you said that
mayb u did
oh yeah there was like a part 1, which was like the same thing but with injectivity
pog
thanks for helping, i appreciate it

only on negative numbers
when $(a u) \cdot then v = a (u \cdot v)$
.
This isn’t multiplication
use this as your reference
This is finite maths
oh mb
not (A and B) is not A or not B
if $(divison) \cdot then v = a (a nor b )$

Question: What is the probability of rolling 4 different numbers in 6 dice rolls, assume a fair 6-sided die
does 6C4 * (6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 3 * 3)/6^6 work?
Hey
yep thats riggiht
Hi 🙂
I got about 0.463
When I compute it I get 1.041666 which I don't think is the right answer
C(6, 4) = 6! / (4!(6 - 4)!) = 15
15 ways to choose 4 different numbers.
P(6, 6) = 6! / (6 - 6)! = 6! / 0! = 720
720 ways to arrange these 4 different numbers in 6 rolls.
P(2, 2) = 2! / (2 - 2)! = 2! / 0! = 2
2 ways to roll the remaining 2 numbers in the remaining 2 rolls.
6^6 = 46,656
21,600 / 46,656 =~ 0.463
thats the thought proccess
but I just plugged values into my graphing calc
computing error most likely
15 x 2 x 720 = 21600
6^6 = 46656
need any more help pls just ping me
Yeah so I did 6C4=15, 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 3 *3=3240, 6^6= 46656 so then:
15*3240/46656=1.0416
but i'm not really sure why that's wrong
where is 153240 is coming from?
It's formatted because of discord
sorry that was an error it's supposed to be 15 * 3240
Surround the text with `
So it doesn't do that
supposed to be 15*2*720
4 different number and 15 ways to choose them
2 ways to roll the remaining to fair die
720 ways to arrage 4 different numbers.
ah ok
but why does this not work or what is the mistake here?
why are you doing 6C4
i'm still not understand that
My thinking was getting the first number is 6/6 then the second was 5/6 then 3rd 4/6 then 3/6 then you have to repeat one of those numbers twice, then there is 6C4 ways to arrange the unique numbers
There are thre things you need to care for:
how many ways to choose them
how many ways to arrange them
how many ways to roll the remaining die
ohhh
i see where the logic is going wrong
two scenarios:
- The repeated number is the same as one of the first three numbers
- The repeated number is different from the first three numbers
ok
is there a way I could account for those scenarios and solve it similar to how I was or is my original way just fundamentally wrong aha
Number of ways to choose 4 different numbers out of 6: 6C4 = 15.
Number of ways to arrange these 4 different numbers in 6 rolls: 4P4 = 4! = 24
Number of ways to choose the remaining 2 numbers (the ones not chosen): 2C2 = 1
Number of ways to arrange these 2 remaining numbers in the last 2 rolls: 2P2 = 2! = 2
account for all possible change

How do I find the derivative of tan^4(x/12)?
I wonder if i can assume the trig function as a variable like x,y,z
Then differentiate it
just power rule, chain rule, and trig identity
Do I needed to apply chain rule to this question
yes
Cause his my brother that I never met my whole life, and probably we re non-blood-relative
But we share the same question
Why? D/dx P^4 = 4P^3
f(x) = tan^4(x/12)
g(x) = tan(x/12)
h(x) = x/12
Isn’t it true
What does it mean
functions for chain rule
you're mistaking derivatives
when you write f(x) = p^4
then when you take the derivative you want df/dx
but if you say 4p^3 it is df/dp
you forgot to use chain rule so a dp/dx is missing
I can’t seems to understand what is h(x)
It is not a trig function
It seems out of context
In my point of view
try to look at $tan^{4}(\frac{x}{12})$ as $f(g(h(x)))$
saad
What I had been taught to do the derivative of tan, is to split it in the form of sin/cos. Then differentiate it
huh
you never learned about these derivatives?
Only the sin and cos
Where did you get that exotic table from
thats not exotic at all, its very common, you should memorize those
No, I think the arrangements of word is terrific and neat
Where the picture from

im trying find the Wronskian with this ODE, and also solve it, but im apparently not getting the right wronskian
i have to verify that e^-2x and e ^3x are part of the fundamental set
the part on the right is what im getting as the wronskian
those cant be combined can they
i mena i do realize i got the signs wrong
but even then its not right
ok so i got the wronskian now. just need to figure out how to solve
think im good now

<@&286206848099549185> it's been more than 15 min so ig ill ping
hint: use discriminant formula to show a minimum
or in other words use the discriminant to show its greater than or equal to zero
my dad showed me that earlier but i dont know how it's relevant
bc if a quadratic polynomial has positive coefficients and its discriminant is >= 0 then its roots are real
oh like use discrimminant for the x^2+px+q part and discrimminant for the (x+a)(2x+p) part?
yes
second one
you wanna prove that the discriminant of 3x^2+x(2p + 2a) + ap + q = 0
is greater or equal to zero
dyk why @finite ridge
yeah because if the discrimminant is below 0 then it's the sqrt of a negative number
yuh
wait where does this come from
oh
simplification
bruh nvm ye idk how i didnt see that
oh so jut discrimminant dang i overlooked that
aops intermediate alg
we on like review tho
ye
bro i wish
i've lost motivation in like math tho
so?
albert einstein is better than me at math, so are a lot of other people
its never a good idea to compare urself to friends

I really don't understand what is happening here 😭
Like, for example,
12 = 2 * 2 * 3
And the sum of these factors is 7
But if I use the generalized form given in the pic, I get 35/2.
I just want to know whether that generalized form is correct or not
Also I'm confused about the second point.

I don't know how to approach Problem 5. I can follow along with the hints and understand what's going on, but I don't know where to go from there (Problem 4 included so you can see what the 2nd hint is referring to)
by the ` they mean differentiate right?
Hint: you can write a as e^ln(a)
nvm, didn't read the bottom
What happened when you tried doing that?
Here's me following along with the hints
If you have e^(tln(a)) you can directly differentiate
the "t times" doesnt really make sense here since t doesn't have to be an integer
So e^(tln(a)) matches the form of e^(bt), right? Then e^(tln(a))' should take the form of be^(bt). But the derivative of e to anything is just itself, though right? Which does not take the form be^bt
The derivative of e to anything is not always itself, take e^ln(t) for example, the derivative isn't e^ln(t), but 1, since e^ln(t) = t
You have to use the chain rule
We haven't covered the chain rule yet 😅 This exercise was for the product rule
that doesn't matter since the derivative of e^(bt) is already given, to derive this you use the chain rule, but here you don't have to
So what is the derivative of e^(t * ln(a))?
e^(t * ln(a)) = e^ln(a^t) = a^t
a^t' = ta^t-1? Or is that completely off base
Yeah, that's wrong. You can't use that formula when the variable is in the exponent
But the derivative of e^(t * ln(a)) is already given, if you set b = ln(a)
@shrewd stirrup Has your question been resolved?
So all I really need to do is plug ln(a) into b in the derivative? I'm still not exactly sure what rule that is coming from. Is that a property of e?
Ohhhhh, I see 😁
I still don't quite get why the derivative of e is that, but I guess that's not really part of the question
Chain rule and the fact that d/dx e^x=e^x
I've not covered chain rule yet, so I'll keep that in mind when I do
Thanks all!

can someone explain what integrals used for like explaining to a brainless monkey, im just curious abt that what it does (i know basic functions idk how to describe but yeah)
finding areas under a curve is a major use
Generally speaking it gives you the combined effect of small changes
If you mean real world applications
uhhh.
how come?
like what i can use it for?
ive seen many things especially
the edx near an integral
NEON
maybe study this stuff on Khan Academy: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/integral-calculus
You can use it to calculate work done $\int \vec{F}\cdot \dd{\vec{x}}$
NEON
tbh your question is kinda like asking "what can I use computers for", it's too broad

Hello I was wondering if anyone knows how to find the average of 2 p values?
its for hypothesis testing
wdym by average?
mean?
I have two p values, one states that my results are not significant while the other states my results are significant so Id like to find the mean of it to figure out if overall my hypothesis is significant or not
but im not sure if im allowed to just average the p values using the usual method of adding the two values together the dividing by 2
why not?
I searched up online and a lot state i have to use chi values and stuff but I wasnt rly sure if i was allowed to just average?
guess what
there are many averages
geometric, harmonic
im referring to mean
then adding and dividing is fine

How do I do this
If someone could just walk me through it as I do not understand it and it is in my test coming up
Uh hello
you should make an attempt before asking
just try so its easier to help in which concept your going wrong
hint: ||try and get a common denominator||
Ok but do I first need to times both denominator by 2 or no
Because of the front 2
Yeah I got that
Yakin_OmegaΩ
???
thats what the question is dawg
add the "X" terms and constants to get Ax+B
divided by x^2 - 4
a= 3 , b = -18

can someone help me with c. of example 3 using law of syllogism
i tihnk i get the idea sort of but idk how to write it
i'm not sure how to help you write it, other than to say what is the point and what is the line segment?
write what
they showed it in logic
p -> q (p implies q)
p (p is true)
-------
q (then q must be true)
the point is M and the line segment is AB
i gotta write a conclusion
i feel like this is mainly an exercise in english and substituting symbols for the words that describe them. it's hard to explain how to do it without appealing to just logic
like, in a., you had "she"
if (a point is a midpoint of a line segment), then (that point divides the line segment into two congruent segments)
(M is the midpoint of AB)
M divides AB into two congruent segments.
this later became "mary"
okay thank you
idk why we gotta learn this
its logic. extremely important for higher math and computer science type curriculum.
it's the rationality that's built inside of you as a human 
its less of learning and more of recalling something you already know to gainmore proficiency in it 
okay
it may seem redundant right now, but this is the building up of your knowledge to meet a tougher challenge later on. i assume this is the beginning of a logic course.
what about
b. if a polygon is regular, then all angles in the interior of the polygon are congruent
if a polygon is regular, then all its sides are congruent
i gotchu
these are two implications and no statements. what is the problem asking for?
use the law of syllogism to write a new conditional statement that follows from the pair of true statements.
both are implying that if a polygon is regular, then (...), so we have one condition for two implications. just combine both statements into one. in logic this is the same as
p -> q
p -> s
------
p -> q ^ s
so would it be
if a polygon is regular, then all it's sides and angles in the interior are congruent
yeah, sounds good to me.
q <-> s is another conclusion of this
you can write if all angles in the interior of a polygon are congruent, then all its sides are congruent
without seeing the rest of the problems i couldn't tell you which is "more correct"

I don’t understand where I went wrong
AℤØ
they need to have a common denominator
everything after the 4th line is illegal
Okay, so can I simplify 4th line or no?
multiply the numerator and denominator of the left fraction by (4x-1) and then you can combine them via the subtraction
though im not sure how much simplifying is really going to occur
Okay thank you 😊

What do you mean by new domain? What does the original question say?
The original domain was
-180 <= x/2 <= 180
i mena
-180 <= x <= 180
yeah wait lemme redo this i think i did something wrong
Hey would this be correct
as like the domain for U
i know i have to redo the whole question
Do you have a picture of the original question?
No, not really my friend just gave me this question.
as in like he wrote it out
Wait but I can write it out if youd like
$cos(\frac{x}{2}) = -\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ where $-180 <= x <= 180$
I'm getting a whole different angles outside of your domain. I might be doing something wrong, or the question isn't clear.
0_0
Yeah I think the answer was no solutions in the domain
That makes sense then.
Wait lemme redo the working out and see if i get the same answer
could u just
tell me if
this new domain is correct
The key in such problems is to apply cos^-1 on both side.
for u
You don't have to change the domain. Let it be as it is.
Oh alr
Actually I just realised
-90 degrees to 90 degrees is positive for cosine
and since it says
cos(x/2) = -sqrt(3)/2
There aren't any solutions
That's also a solution.
My bad, it isn't
No, it isn't.
Wait so let me this clear, there aren't any solutions correct?
For a angle of 260, it gives the angle of 130, which is negative cos value.
Yeah.
angle of 260 is outside the domain though isn't it?
If x is a angle of 260.
but then x would be outside the -180 to 180 domain
Argh, my brain isn't working.
Since A and C are positive that means there aren't any solutions correct?
You're right.

4(k+3)+2=4.5(k+1)
are you trying to solve for k?
have you heard of distributive property
Yes
do you know how to apply it to 4(k+3) + 2
Yes
can you do it for me?
4.5k+4.5 for the right
4k+14=4.5k+4.5
Do I bring the 4.5 over to the left
you could do that yes
Or should I bring the 14 over
either way works
i would recommend that yes
because it would not give us a negative number
it seems to me you already know how to do this lmao
So it would be 9.5
yes

Struggling to understand what to do.
Have to use an augmented matrix turned to rref to solve btw
I have the answer I'm supposed to get and the equations but dont understand them
i'm not sure what the fancy words mean but can you just do
P=30
W=2L
L=W/2
P=W+2L
30=W+2L
W=30-2L
W=30-2(W/2)
W=30-W
2W=30
W=15
30=15+2L
15=2L
15/2=L
Wait so why is it -2l
30=W+2L
(subtract 2L from both sides)
30-2L=W
So W is the wudth, L is length
ok
So you set the two sides as the same variable and made equations?
L and W are interchangeable for other letters, I just used them for convenience sake. L is the length of the two sides that are equal, and W is the length of the side that is double L
hence W = 2L
Ok
So how can I write this problem into a system of equations
Cause I get the logic behind solving like that but
I need to understand how one would solve it like this
With 3 variables and matrices
what math class are you in
Algebra 2
thats so interesting, i never had to use matrices for something like that
Neither have I my teacher has never used matrices like this
But this is his sheet its not from the textbook
But I can solve normally just dont get how with matrices
in the above picture you sent. x, y, and z represent each individual side length
Ok
So why did they set two equations to zero
For the 1st equation x+y+z=30 makes sense
But why -2x+0y+z=0? Why not 2x+z=30? I tried making them like that, as well as the inverse but it didnt work
weird im in calculus and i dont quite understand. sorry bro, i would try to figure it out if i had a bit more time but id recommend asking chatgpt if nobody else helps you

i dont understand how courageous, intelligent and ambitious are equivalent
@violet solar Has your question been resolved?
any x > 0 is nor courageous, nor intelligent, nor ambitious
and any x < 0 is courageous, intelligent and ambitious
so to tell that the 3 are equivalent
you need 0 to be either the 3, or none of the 3
and 0 is the 3
hi, i understand what you mean, but 0 cannot courageous
that's where you're wrong

@ruby bluff Has your question been resolved?
1+omega+omega² = (1-omega^3)/(1-omega)
since omega is not 1, denom is not 0, and numerator is since omega^3 = 1 by def
how does the denominator not being 0
make the whole thing equal -1
the denom is (1-omega)
since they tell you omega is not real, it's not 1
so 1-omega is not 0
wait i still dont get it
where did you get 1+w+w^2
from
isnt it a+bw+cw^2
1-w^3/1-w
I don't understand what you're saying
oh that's what you meant by 1h
my bad tired, I read 1h or idk what I read
the trick is that you can multiply a fraction by w/w
or w^2/w^2
without changing it's value
for example (a+bw+cw²)/(b+cw+aw²) = w²(a+bw+cw²)/w²(b+cw+aw²)
= (aw²+b+cw)/(bw²+c+aw)
oh ok
but then how would you cancel everything out
if you dont know what a and b is
cos if a is bigger than b
you can do what I did with the 2 fractions
so maybe you can get a sum that simplifies nicely

how do i do this
I'll tell you what I learned in school
lets say x is that number
try multiply it by 100000, so that first repeating section comes in front of the decimal point
then what is 100000x?
129789.789...
then sub it by original x
point is that decimal points are being erased
so 99999x=?
129788.492?
ah sorry
sorry for the confusion
sub by 100x
to make decimals equal
I mean so 100000x-100x
so 100000x-100x=12789.789... - 12.789...
yes
so 99900x=129660
then x=129660/99900
oo that is a neat method
so ratio of two integers

Given, $ab+bc+cd=0$
Prove that:
$x^{\frac{1}{a}}\times x^{\frac{1}{b}}\times x^{\frac{1}{c}}=1$
neon
looks interesting
yes
unsure but if you use exponent properties and combine 1/a + 1/b + 1/c, you might get what you want
i think here is mistake
That gives $x^{\frac{bc+ac+ab}{abc}}$
neon
instead of cd i think should be ac
and i don't know how to prorgess further
maybe
wait where does d come from?
given in question
then please post full question :\
it's there
what? thats the full question
Are you sure? Because what Filga says makes sense. It would become x^(0/abc), x^0, 1
so did you misread a d?
I guess it's a mistake in the book itself, let me post the image of the question
yeah please do
,rotate
that's odd
So i guess the question is wrong, I'll inform my math teacher later today
yeah, definitely wrong
thanks both of you!

whaaa… i literally just don’t get it at all sorry
you need to use transformations of functions
shifting functions up and down, left and right, that sort of things
does parabola congruency mean it has the same x^2 coefficient
i presume that's what it is
i have no idea what’s going on
i’m only in gr11 btw idk if that will change anything 
i’m smooth brain
a(x-h)^2+k is vertex form
not the same but the same by absolute value
yes
