You'd need to add 9/8 on the other side
remember to scale that 9/16 on the right because it's inside the 2() on the left
yeah
you almost have it
just if you add 2(9/16) on the left you need to add it on the right as well
so it should be plus 2(9/16) on the right too?
yeah instead of the raw 9/16
$(x-1)^2+2(y+3/4)^2=113/8$
RunaAnn
correct?
,w 1 + 12 + 9/8
Wonderful
is this already the standard form?
i think it's supposed to be $\frac{(x-h)²}{a²} + \frac{(y-k)²}{b²} = 1$
hayley
oh so i have to divide
yeah

There are three boxes, in which two of them there is acid. The boxes respectively say: \begin{enumerate} \item This box is safe. \ \item There is acid in this box. \ \item There is acid in box 2. \end{enumerate} We also know that atleast one of these statements is false and atleast one of them is true. \ Which of the boxes is safe?
those all sound pretty dangerous
Not with the previous-to-last sentence
(Also congrats on mod, Hayley)
no
No, there is exactly two times acid
One is safe.
true false false: no
false true false: no
false false true: no
true true false: no
true false true: no
false true true: yes
the third one is safe
How did you deduce that?
Why no in the first 5 cases?
i just checked three cases, based on which one was safe
What did you do when you e.g. assumed box 1 was safe?
2 and 3 are the same statement, except for "false true true" and "true false false" that's how you can tell they can't be right
just checked the truth value of each statement and then saw whether we had at least one true and at least one false
So if we say box 1 is safe, then statement 1 is correct.
Statement 2, 3 could both be correct too.
Oh, one must be false
Then both must be false
Statement 1 correct, 2 false, 3 false
If box 1 is safe.
if we say box 1 is safe then the other two have acid
Yes
my way is the smart
So three true statements, but we need atleast one false. So box 1 can't be safe.
exactly
Ah, so that's your way, Hayley. Thanks
at least 1 false and and least 1 true
means it's 6 cases, out of which 2 are possible, the ones where truth values 2=3
why is this so contentious...
It's not?
do we not get the same answer?
Yeah
Pretty sure Frowny got the same answer as Hayley
i'm not sure what hayley says though
She e.g. looks what would happen if box 1 was safe. That would lead to a contradiction
Then what would happen if box 2 was safe, etc.
since 2 and 3 are the same statement effectively
the fastest way would be to deem 1 false no?
yes
Wasn't that at the very beginning? I don't know if she already thought of her way then.
Let me try writing out her way
from what I read, hayley was basically just suggesting brute forcing
1 is safe: s1 is correct, s2 or s3 needs to be false. They must both be correct though, since 1 is safe. Contradiction.
2 is safe: s1 is false, s2 or s3 must be correct. s2 is false. s3 must be correct, but s3 is false. Contradiction.
3 is safe: s1 is false, s2 is correct, s3 is correct. No contradiction.
I think that's what Hayley thought of
You are looking for contradictions here too, right?
no
true, false, false is a no because 1 is safe, but 2. false means 2 must be safe too. Contradiction to the statement there is only one safe box and thus no
i just can't think of a way that wouldn't do that
I wasn't asking for a way that wouldn't use contradiction?
I was just asking if you used contradiction in your argument to say "no"
you always reject things until one remains, you reject because a hypothesis leads to a contradiction
i didn't use the word contradiction at any point in my head
Well what did you use then to say "1 is a no"? Just "it can't be correct"?
That would be equivalent to saying "contradiction"
okay
Alright, thanks Frowny

is this a valid matrix operation or did I make a typo in there? (it's supposed to be part of a proof on the Vandermonde-determinant)
The idea is to divide each jth row by (x_j-x_0). This is a slight variation of what our textbook does, but I'm not sure I understand where the - signs disappeared to? I could probably just copy this into the assignment because "that's what the textbook did", but I'm trying to understand why and how this is a valid operation (or how to properly do it if this isn't one, as I suspect)
well multiply eg the entries in the first row by x1-x0 and simplify
what do you get
btw, \det
oh that's just the 3rd binomial formula...
I thought I was missing something obvious, thanks!

- Prove for a matrix A:
If A^TA = A, then A is symmetric and A = A^2.
This is extremely obvious in the other direction. Got 2 almost-proofs but they each had a small flaw
Attempt 2: If A^TA = A, we know that either A is not invertible or A^T is the identity because if A were invertible, we would have A^T = I upon multiplying A^-1 at the right.
However, if A^T is the identity then A is symmetric because we can also prove that A = I by the following:
Raise both sides to T to get
AA^T = A^T
A^T is invertible if A is invertible and its inverse is (A^T)(-1)
Multiply on right to get A = I
So A^T = I = A .
Hence A^TA = A implies AA = A -> A^2 = A.
That proves it if A is invertible.
If A is not invertible then we know det(A) = 0.
det(A) = 0 implies a certain relation between the diagonal entries of A; for 2x2 we have ad = bc, for 3x3 we have aeg + … = …)
)
This one i couldnt think how it would end. Then I have a\ttempt 1 where thers just a flaw in logic
If A^TA = A, then A is symmetric and A = A^2.
This is extremely obvious in the other direction. A has to be equal to A^2; since A is symmetric, A^TA = AA. So A = AA.
Hence we will do a proof by contrapositive. Prove that
if A is not symmetric OR A =/= A^2,
then A^TA =/= A.
Part 1:
If A is not symmetric, then A =/= A^T.
Case 1: A is not symmetric and A = A^2
Hence A^tA =/= A because if A was symmetric that would be implying A^TA = AA = A^2 which would be equal to A if A was equal to A^2. Since A is not symmetric we can infer this is not true.
Case 2: A is not symmetric and A =/= A^2
A is not symmetric
So A^TA =/= AA
So A^TA =/= A^2 =/= A
Since we have proven the contrapositive, we have proven the original
@neon iron Has your question been resolved?
I already did that
Raise both sides to T to get
AA^T = A^T
But the onlyr esults I found with this was if we assumed A is invertible
.
Yup
LMFAO
lol
yeah and the rest is very easy
the first time I read through what you wrote I also missed that
Yeah
Like I know youre supposed to swap them
I think i just somehow didnt
Ok I have one moreq uestion
sure
Use row reduction to show that the determinant of
1 1 1
a b c
a^2 b^2 c^2
is (b − a)(c − a)(c − b).
Lemme grab the work for it
We know
1 1 1
a b c
a2 b2 c2
R2 -> R2 - aR1 (so doesnt affect the determinant)
1 1 1
0 b-a c-a
a2 b2 c2
R3 -> R3 - a^2R1 (so doesnt affect)
1 1 1
0 b-a c-a
0 b^2-a^2 c2-a^2
R2 -> 1/(b-a)R2 (so multiply final det by 1/(b-a))
1 1 1
0 1 c-a
0 (a+b)(a-b) (c-a)(c+a)
R3 -> R3 - (a+b)(a-b)R2
1 1 1
0 1 c-a
0 0 (c-a)(c+a) - (a+b)(a-b)(c-a)
Maybe its turning out weird bc im doing Gauss Jordan
I would maybe try to do it without the division by b-a
You don't know if it's 0 or not
😭 I only really know how to use gauss jordan
And gaussian
I think thats all that was taught
Wolframalpha does these weird methods of guess and check
Or like 'observing' stuff
But ive just been foloowing the method i was told to use
also you screwed up the division anyway
why is c-a still here
(c-a)/(b-a)
Lmao
Im really not sure where the c-b term comes from in the final answer
But ill try doing like
Well idk i still dont know what to do
\
Oh syhit
What if we do R2 -> R2 - R2. no nvm LMAO
Like, c-a - (b-a) is c-b
R2 and R3 have factors in common you know
R2 -> R2 - R2?
Oh.... so R3 is just R2 multiplied by (b+a) on columkn 2 aqnd (c+a) on column 3
Ignore that
I meant more like
column 3 -> column 3 - column 2
But that doesnte xist lmao
R3 <- R3 - (b+a)R2 kills the coeff in (R3, C2) indeed
or maybe +(a+b)R2 idk, haven't read your thing in detail
1 1 1
0 b-a c-a
0 b^2-a^2 c2-a^2
R3 -> R3 - (b+a)R2
That doesnt actually kill it tho....?
That's (b-a)(b+a) - (b+a)(b-a)
Which is (b-a)(b+a-1)
OH SHI8T
OH SHIT
UR RIGHT
Okay
1 1 1
0 b-a c-a
0 b^2-a^2 c2-a^2
R3 -> R3 - (b+a)R2
1 1 1
0 b-a c-a
0 0 (c-a)(c+a) - (b+a)(c-a)
So the final determinant would be (b-a)( (c-a)(c+a - (b+a)))
💀
Since they said u can just take the determinant once its in tringular form
And its equal to the product of the diagonal main
careful with your parentheses
Oh yea
that's what's nice about triangular ye
This still doesnt have c-b anywhere... We would need b - c and then negate it
(c+a - (b+a))
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
So true
(b-a)( (c-a)(c+a - (b+a)))
(b-a) ( c-a)(c-b)
YES LETS GO

How do i find the side for this equation to find the height?
“A square based pyramid has a total surface area of 224cm^2. If the length of the base is 8 cm, what is the height of each triangular face?”
A square base pyramid has a single base, and 4 triangles
Total surface area = Area(base) + 4Area(Triangle)
Area(base) = 88 = 64
224 = 64 + 4Area(Triangle)
Area(Triangle) = 160
Area(Triangle) = side * height/2
side = 8(the base)
height = 1602/8 = 40
you're not supposed to calculate the solution for him, you're supposed to guide him for him to get it himself
I get this however the answer sheet says the height should be 10 cm, so i’m very confused
i have the formulas to figure out the height and all, except i will need the length of the side to do so and this equation doesn’t provide one
<@&286206848099549185>
can u help 😭
you know that the pyramid has a square base of length 8cm
with that you should be able to calculate the area of the base. Compute it and tell me the answer
64
yeh mb forgot the units
After that, you know that the total area of the pyramid is the sum of the areas of the base and each side
since it's a square pyramid, you got the base, and 4 sides
mhm
since you got the total (given) and the area of the base (just calculated) you can get the area of the other 4 sides together. Compute it and tell me
40 cm^2?
how much is 224cm^2 minus 64cm^2?
160
remember i said the other 4 together
since they are all 4 equal, obviously the area of only one is 1/4 of that, which is the 40cm^2 that you got
which is specifically where Davit made a mistake.
He said 4A = A
now, you have the area of one side triangle (40cm^2), and you got the base of the side triangle (given, 8cm). With that you should be able to compute the height
hmm
still a little confused cuz to figure the height it’s just Pythagoras theorem right?
so it be square root of c^2 - a^2 to find the height yeh?
so how would i get the c
cuz it cant be 40^2 - 4^2 can it?
the area of a triangle is half the product of the base times the height
you got the area, and you got the base
oh wait
40 divided by 8 times 2
OHHHH
tysm i was just thinking too hard

am I going insane or does sin(pi/4) make 1/sqrt2 not sqrt(2)/2
sqrt(2)/2 and 1/sqrt(2) are one and the same
or do you perhaps wish to claim they aren't
sqrt(2)/2 = 2^{1/2 - 1} = 2^{-1/2} = 1/sqrt(2)
it'll still be correct
.
Wouldn't it be faster to simply factor x^2 out from the denominator and sub 1/x^2 as u
they're the same thing
yea but these tests you can't let u = something, it has to be given
if I could i would, it would make my life 10x easier

Long Polynomial Division
2/3x
its divide multiply subract bringdown
there is horner way
oo you are using the normal one
yeeee
alright wait
my prof havent teach it yet
2x^3-x^2-(3x^2+1)(2/3x) =0x^3-x^2-2/3x
can u explain we arent on this topic yet so idk
He divides by 3x^2+1
this one
Not by 3x^2+x+1
1x-2 right?
@graceful lynx but our answer is quite different
i'll do number 2 but in other way
horner way
it is more simple
horner method
we cant use it yet T-T teach havent teach it yet so were stuck with long division
yeah
shit hurts
Feels bad
how should i divide this using long division?
ty, i would love to help him, but i'm on my way to dorm
no worries bro thanks for your help
sure man

how does me do
stucc on finding the inverse of f(x)
cos(what) + 3(what) = x
not sure what what could be
I don't think you can find the inverse in terms of elementary functions
but the "differentiable" part of the question hints that you might have to use the inverse function theorem, or some other result like that
what 😭
but this problem comes shortly after learning the chain rule in the ap calc ab textbook

Hello, I need to find FG, HG, FG , I got FH
observe triangle FEH
oke we got gfh 15
i cant use trigono i need 90
degree triangle
yk
@hybrid coral any ideas?
triangle feg is 90
yuh
owh
wait
sin 30 = 8 / FG
right?
and then sin 30 = 1/2
so 1/2 = 8 / FG
and FG would be 16?

So, I'm solving this problem
"Find the module and argument of the complex number z, for which: z=1-i"
everything is going good, find the module being sqrt(2)
and for me the easiest way to find the argument is to use tan
tan being a/b
so I get 1/(-1)
now I look for what it equals to in radians
it equals to 90 degrees or pi/2
but my textbook says it's 7/4*pi which is 315 degrees
and I'm confused as to why
,calc tan(pi/2)
Result:
1.6331239353195e+16
Oh it actually spits out a number lol.
truly a wonder to behold
You can plot it in your head, it becomes more obvious that the angle is -pi/4 so the argument is 7/4 pi
C is the same as R^2 when you think about its geometry
1-i is (1, -1)
I still don't really understand
how do I get to 7/4 or 315 degrees
I get that it's (1, -1)
but idk
Draw it
Draw a graph
-i is the point at a 3/2 pi angle
1-i is further
The angle is half a right angle with the x-line
-45° = -pi/4 = 7pi/4 as argument
And if you draw it, you'll also see that it gives tan(argument) = -1
It becomes way more obvious on a drawing and by drawing the right triangle and everything
this
for a=1
b=-1
Yeah now place (1, -1)
.reopen
And draw a line from the origin to it
Link it to the x-line at the right border of a
And to the origin
It's a right angled triangle
So tan(argument) = a/b
= -1
And also to the right border of a
yeah?
now I see
The argument is the angle of the triangle glued to the origin
So tan(argument) = a/b = -1

Could someone explain how this is dividing the denom and numerator by the highest power of n that occurs in the denominator?
the denominator is n + 1
so the highest power of n is 1
here
and this is why they divided by n both
n = n^1
yes, then you would divide by n^2
you are supposed to divide both the numerator and the denominator by n
the numerator is n
n divided by n is 1
the denominator is n + 1
ohhhhh
n+1 divided by n is (n+1)/n = 1 + 1/n
ayo ima write that down

Hmm one sec
Ehhh I dont understand why num and denom got flipped
I know n can be sqrt of n^2
What I've typed is only for the denominator
simply, e.g.:
5 = sqrt(25) = sqrt(5^2)
6 = sqrt(36) = sqrt(6^2)
10 = sqrt(100) = sqrt(10^2)
etc.
oh gotchya
Could you also explain to me what "the numerator is constant and the denominator approaches 0" means?
I saw a graph of convergant and divergent but aye aye aye
One approaches 0 as something approaches infinity or somethin like that, one doesnt
I assume its divergent because the num is always 1, and the denom is approaching 0.
which is something like 1/0
ye smth like 1/0
it's indeterminate, but here you can imagine it as 1 divided by something really really small
limit is infinity and this is why we can call it divergent
If we solved the equation like above and it goes past the limit, what does that mean then?
Trying to know the difference between divergent and convergant while learning what a limit as something approaches something else actually means/looks like
Pretty sure diverge just means difference, or divide, converge obv means come together so I'm assuming convergant means as x aproaches whatever, ? is convergant if points get closer together)

sorry i didnt realise i was in a different channel
when x < 0, |x| = -x
so on x < 0 side, you draw -x, on the other, you draw (x-2)²
,w plot (x-2)²
which looks like that, because it's a parabola with a minimum at x = 2
do i need a table of values as well?
you can do it if it helps you, but you can just see some values from head
@next sinew Has your question been resolved?
the parabola should go to 4 at x = 0
so arrange your y-scaling a bit
but yeah the shape is essentially it
,rotate
the parabola isn't defined on the left side of x = 0
it should hit 4 precisely at x = 0

is this correct?
also is there anything else I need to do to it? bc I asked another person and they said I needed dots or something to fit the original question
you can put a full dot at (0, 4) and an empty dot at (0, 0) to say that for 0 it's the 4
so now it’s finally done?
yeah
domain and range are intervals
are your answers intervals ?
[1, 8] and [2.2, 5.3]
howd you get those
by looking at the drawing
and you can't even understand what to do if you don't know what's an interval
it's like the space between them right?
also for c) is it [4, 2] [5, 5] [3, 7]?
no, c) are the x coordinate of intersection points, so 2, 5, and 7
check the definition of range of a function
when you plot a function, the y axis are the values the function takes
so the range is all the possible y values
i think i get it now
so it's the first far right red dot (2.2) and the far left red dot (5.3)?
oh i am totally wrong then
it gets a bit higher than 5.5 right there
2.2 is the far right y value
your left green point is at y = 3
which has nothing to do with the question
more like this yeah
a) [1, 8]
b) [2.2, 5.6]
again, these are intervals
answer for d) is [1, 2[ and ]5, 7[
can you show me step by step how you got there?
step 1: I see on the graph that f is below g on the interval [1, 2[
step 2: I see on the graph that f is also below g on the interval ]5, 7[
step 3: f is above g on the rest so there's nothing else to add
i understand now. thanks
@next sinew Has your question been resolved?
so how would i amend it?
f(x-3) = (x-3)²+(x-3)+1 = x²-6x+9+x-3+1 = x²-5x+7
f(2) = 4+2+1 = 7
so g(f(2)) = g(7) = 4
i still dont understand sorry. are there steps in between those? like what do you do with the exponents etc?
it's complicated

(ignore the f at the bottom)
dude I gave the solution how is this what you got lmao you can just read what I wrote
ye im saying i wrote down what you wrote
im still a bit confused tho
what are you confused about
f(2) = 2^2 + 2 + 1
= 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 makes sense
but then im not sure how i go from there to the final answer
you plug in 2 in f(x) and that gives you the "x" value for g(x)
its just a matter of plugging in numbers
so the x value for g(x) is 7?
@next sinew Has your question been resolved?
ok ive solved it
final question before i go to bed:
@glossy fable
what does it mean by "invertible"
idk this is all the context i found
thats why im asking in this channel lol
maybe it means like a horizontal line test?

garbage…any other ways to do that double integral? Or…Can this anti derivative evaluate to 0.63951
i'm not sure on those bounds
Yeah cus if u do half the square u multiply by 2 from symmetry, but after integrating wrt to dr the integrand has 1/2

How to find and prove what's limit of (1+1/n)^n sequence?
It seems to stay close to 2.71 as it reaches inf but have no idea why 2.71 exactly
ever heard of euler's constant? a.k.a. e?
@whole wagon Has your question been resolved?
Yes, but how to prove it
lim (1 + 1/n)^n is one of the definitions of e
if you have a different definition on hand then perhaps you could try to prove that one is equivalent to this one
Well, so I can just say that e is upper limit of the sequence?
"upper limit"?
Actually question was if it had upper and lower limit
Lower limit would be a(1) 2^0.5
And after that it raise to reach e
But it can never reach e as it's unending, right?
So I can say that limit of sequence is sqrt(2) and e
Wait I got mixed up
It's not sqrt it's 2 and e
do you mean like limsup and liminf...?

Is this correct, and if so, how do I get there?
well i dont really know but 2 sqrt(r/g) is equal to (2 sqrt r)/sqrt g
then u times both sides by sqrt g

Hi how would i prove the first limit
I mean i know what the definition of a limit is, but i don`t see how i can prove that function has a limit P
Wdym you prove the first limit
You don't have to prove it, it's the hypothesis for the proof
If you know the first limit = P, then the second limit = KP
That's what you have to show
but tbh i have no idea how to prove it
like
how
can i say its part of the limit law
or do i use k = any real number and p is any real number
what is the definition of a limit given to you?
Nah, imagine you didn't knew that the limit law was true
is it epsilon delta definition?
yh i think
yh i think
epsilon greater than zero, delta greater than zero such that so and so
then just take modify your initial epsilon so it works nicely for K\phi(\theta)->KP
phi is that circle with vertical line?
yee
alr
dont know how to do that, sos.
wait
|phi(theta) - P| < epsilon
modify that?
[\forall \frac{\varepsilon}{|K|}>0 \exists \delta:(|\theta-\theta_0|<\delta\Rightarrow |\phi(\theta)-P|<\frac{\varepsilon}{|K|})]
agreed?
thats what we are doing
if this is true for all positive real numbers e, its also true for e/K right?
yh
oh maybe I should replace K with |K|
maybe
so thats it, the above statement is true, now multiply by |K| both sides of the inequality
then I get |K||phi(theta) - P| < epsilon
yea
hmhm so what next
thats it
i never heard of the edge case, is that in first year math?
i can just say K does not equal to = 0 cuz its not part of the set R
oh wait
thats N
because K is any real number, K=0, the modified e/|K| will be undefined
ye
