ok
So you can get any T by just choosing j elements out of those n - i elements from A\S
Meaning the numbers of all such T with cardinality j would be n-i choose j
What do you mean by 'choose j'?
$\binom{n-i}j$
A Lonely Bean
And, since j varies from 0 to n-i, we should evaluate the sum
[ \sum_{j=0}^{n-i}\binom{n-i}j ]
A Lonely Bean
Do you recognise this?
I see what you mean but I don't recognise that specific formula
Here we can use the fact that
[ \sum_{k=0}^m\binom mk = 2^m ]
A Lonely Bean
So this basically evaluates to $2^{n-i}$
A Lonely Bean
Okay, so, to recap, we have shown that given S has i elements, the number of T sets such that (S, T) is in the set is 2^{n - i}
Again, there are n choose i ways to choose i elements out of n elements, so now we need to evaluate the sum
[ \sum_{i=0}^n\binom ni 2^{n-i} ]
A Lonely Bean
We have calculated the amount of ordered pairs given that S has i elements, now we let i go from 0 to n and count along adding
Yes
until n
And for convenience let's rewrite this sum
[ \sum_{i=0}^n \binom ni 2^{n-i} = \sum_{i=0}^n \binom n{n-i} 2^{n-i} = \sum_{i=0}^n \binom ni 2^i ]
A Lonely Bean
Do you want a hint for evaluating this?
Yes please ๐
Can you recall the binomial theorem?
[ (a + b)^n = \sum_{i=0}^n\binom ni a^ib^{n-i} ]
Plug in $a = 2$ and $b = 1$, what do you get?
A Lonely Bean
3^n
Yup
Why is a=2 and b=1?
I see that's the cardinality but don't understand how you got there using this method
We simply chose a and b to be like that
It's kind of a trick I guess
Whenever you have n choose i and x^i where i is the running index, you can make use of the binomial theorem

Find an Eulerian Circuit
Is this just trial and error or is there logic to this?
i keep hitting dead ends
I'm here on MS Paint just drawing lines trying to find a circuit
how do you keep hitting dead ends
Because I can only use each vertex once right?
yeah it should just work
there is quite literally nothing you can do wrong here btw. you can just try running
sorry about that
yeah i know
i hit 'dead ends' because i thought i could only use a vertex once
thank you

What substitution would I use for the following differential equation? I'm stuck.
Sorry neo
np!
I have this?
also for this, are you familiar with synthetic polynomial division?
It may help you to familarize yourself with it
You mean my question? I am trying to work out how to solve it ๐
it looks really simple
you can always use this:
cubic formula : )
Also recall that all potential solutions of the cubic are factors of the first coefficient and the last constant.
There is no easier way to solve it by hand?
there is an easier way
lets look at the factors of the first coefficient and the last term
What is your first language?
oh alright
coefficients are like a, b, c, d in ax^3+bx^2+cx+d
the constants in front of the terms
factor of the first coefficient is 3 and last term is 2
got it
huh? first coefficient is just 1
all you need to test are 1, -1, 2, -2 i guess?
I just need to test stuff until it works? How do I know what to test. I know you tried to explain already but I don't get it
doesn't this only work assuming that the factors end up being whole numbers? what if they are fractions \ rational numbers?
yeah i realized that
it's not always applicable
but it is a good start
With this equation it does not have integer roots
so you would have to go with a different method
What are they asking you to do niri?
there is no easy way to solve cubics unless you can factor by grouping, spot a factor by just looking at it etc.
I am trying to solve when the x is 0
in general, no they are not easy to solve
okay. So it just looked much simpler than it really was. I am in high school so I might've made a mistake to get here ๐
wait.
lol that's not solving the equation, that's just plugging in x = 0 : )
Are you trying to find the value when x is zero or when y is zero?
when x = 0, y = 2
let me check for mistakes.
found it
no need for cubic equations
sorry, how do I close this and thanks for the help ๐
still good to know
actually wait
yeah?
you might be able to do some trickery here using difference of cubes
maybe i dunno nm, keep playing it i guess
: )

im ngl how do you find the basis without necessarily putting it in rref?
if you're working on a problem, just show it
im not
but on my exam
my teacher will legit be like
find the basis, without using rref
like for diagonalization, it would be the eigenvector that corresponds with the eigenvalue that is 0
that makes sense to me
but what if you are just given some arbitrary matrix
unless its a special matrix or the basis is obvious, you use rref
thats what rref is for
well, ref is enough
like as in symmetric? or orthonormal?
why just the upper tri?
well you only need to know where the pivot columns are
the actual rref is rarely ever needed
well I mean if you know it is orthogonal then you know its invertible and so the columns are linearly independent
does a matrix being invertable imply all of its columns are linearly independent?
it's a hidden quadratic
its equivalent, yes
does invertable ensure that all the spaces are linearly independent
ie column, row, left null, null space?
it makes no sense to talk about spaces being linearly independent
invertible
all rows lin independent
all columns lin independent
row space equal to R^n
column space equal to R^n
left/right null space equal to {0}
all equivalent
also what is the relation of svd and diagonizeable matricies
well svd always exists
its a generalization of eigendecomposition
if both exist then they arent necessarily equal
unless you have something like symmetric pos definite

Where do I start???? so confused and i have no clue how you can get this answer from that
What is f(x)
the equation of the graph's tangent at $x_{0}$ can be expressed as $y=k(x-x_{0}) + y_{0}$
FungusDesu
where $k = f'(x_{0})$
FungusDesu
this is all that it says unless this is part of the question (which i already did)
you have f'(x) so plug in 4 to find f'(x)

Given $f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$ and $a = 4$, find $f^{\prime}(a)$
kyhua
Posting what I've tried so far in a sec...
At the end I started to take the conjugate of the denominator but I stopped because I figured it might start being circular.
My issue is I can't seem to find a way to get rid of this sqrt(x) no matter what I try
And I know I have to cancel the x's out somehow based on previous problems that were easier, but I can't seem to figure out how to do that for this problem
I know the answer should be -1/16, but I'm missing something and I'm not quite sure what it is
Any help would be appreciated 
$\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-4}\\$
$\frac{\frac{2-\sqrt{x}}{2\sqrt{x}}}{\left(\sqrt{x}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{x}+2\right)}$
@hoary vigil
Combustion
i can't really read what you wrote after the third step so i can't see where you went wrong
Shouldn't be a multiply, should be an arrow ๐
I multiply by the conjugate to get to the 2nd part
$\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-4}\to\frac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{4}}{\left(x-4\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}+\frac{1}{4}\right)}$
Combustion
For this, on the right hand side denominator, it should be
$$(x-4) (\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} + \frac{1}{2})$$
kyhua
right?
oh yeah my bad
also only one step is really necessary for this
just do what i wrote above and you'll be set
$\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-4}\to\frac{\frac{2-\sqrt{x}}{2\sqrt{x}}}{\left(\sqrt{x}-2\right)\left(\sqrt{x}+2\right)}$
I am
Combustion
no way

I completely forgot about difference of squares in the denominator
I think i see it now
Hm
I ended up at
$$\frac{-1}{2x+4\sqrt{x}}$$
kyhua
How is this the final answer...? I'm not quite sure. I thought I was supposed to be finding f'(4)
oh yeah just plug 4 in
Dang, I see that it works but now I'm even more confused haha. But that's really cool! Thanks :D

it's just evaluating the limit of this as x->4
it's the x value you want to evaluate the derivative at
kyhua
This is the equation of the secant line
By plugging in a = 4, what purpose does that have?
I can see that by taking the derivative of 1/x^2 we get :
$$\frac{-1}{2x^{3}}$$
Right, but what purpose does it have when it's by itself?
kyhua
this in itself would just be the slope of a secant line
Ah wait
$$f^{\prime}(x) = \lim_{h \rightarrow 0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$$
kyhua
By comparison, when plugging in only a = 4 we're finding something similar to the derivative of the function, to which at the end we can take the limit of from x -> 4 (as you said earlier) which would give us the derivative of f'(a)
I think I get it
i think i get what you mean yeah

is it possible to Add two numbers together using only multiplication and divison? Lets say I want to add 5 + 10 = 15, how can I use 5 and 10 to get 15 without adding, but using multiplication and/or division?

Can you use 5 and 10 multiple times?
yes
well actually no
i can only use those two numbers once
5 is in a placeholder 10 is in a placeholder and i need to get 15 as a result using only multiplying or dividing
i dont think this is possible is it...
I mean if 5 and 10 are just example numbers, then you can do 3 * 5 = 15
There are only 4 combinations then right?
10(5), (5)10, 5/10, 10/5. Clearly none of these are 15
If you are only limited to using 5 and 10 and only using it once, then no it's not possible to result in 15
what i meant was
i can do 5 x 10 = 50 x whatever# divided by whatever#
or im allowed to do 5 / 10 = 0.5 x whatever # dided by whaetever#
i want to see if i can get a result as close too 15
almost like adding
but without adding
you know how 5 + 10 = 15
imagine i can do 5 x 10 = 50 / whatever * whatever / whatever again to get 15 as a result
is there a set formula for that
Let a and b be numbers. You want a+b=abc for some c, so just solve for c
im not sure i understand
Lets use ur example
Your instructions really aren't clear. You said you are limited to only 5 and 10 and you only use it once. What do you mean by this part?
You want to get 5+10 with multiplication. 5+10=5(10)(c) where c is some number
So you can solve c=(5+10)/50
So you can get 5+10 by doing 5(10)(15/50)
I hate discord
You need to put spaces between the *
I see
how cani make this work with any numbers?
5 + 10 = 15 aka 5*10 (15/50) = 15
what about if 5 + 10 changes all the time
like for example soemthing random like 20 + 35
That is when this comes into place
This is just the general form
Solve for c first, we get c= (a+b)/(ab)
So with your new example let a=20, b=35. With this we know c=(20+35)/(20(35)). So subbing that into a+b=abc we get
20+35=20 * 35 * (20+35)/(20 * 35)
OHHH
MY GOD
okay i get it now
that is so cool
that is actually amazing
thank you so much
so that works with ANY two integers
Yeah
Np

how do i do this one
what have you tried?
im confused on the interval part
what does that mean
its just how long the thing is allowed to move
usually its to avoid weirdness in the function they give you
like log 0 isnt defined here that might be a problem
even though its included
@faint musk Has your question been resolved?
ok so i first find the derivative of the velocity function they give me right
for which part?
the velocity gives you direction so you can just work with that
@faint musk Has your question been resolved?
yeah you need to find the derivative in terms of time for acceleration
im not too sure about the intervals stuff ive just been exposed to these types of questions but in basic terms
once you find dv/dt you can replace all the values of t with 2 for the expression which should work out
so acceleration would be 1/t - 4
for time intervals where it's zero just equate 1/t - 4 = 0
1/t = 4 implies t = 1/4
at 1/4 seconds a = 0
for a and b i assume you can integrate wrt. time for displacement and then try? im not very sure, sorry
alright thanks

My handwriting is terrible but is it something like this?
resulst is absolutely wrong
first step you did ok, but you wrote + 1 and you shud write -1
in nominator
in secodn step, do not take any n^2, from sqaure root
since, you will have - 1 in nominator
and denomiantor wil go to infinitie
so you have symbol like
1/infinmity
hence limit = 0
here, the trick is more complexed, one moment
3โ(a)-b= (a-bยณ)/((3โ(a))ยฒ+(3โ(a).b) + bยฒ)???
Idk what I'm writing at this moment
$a-b=\frac{a^{3}-b^{3}}{a^{2}+ab+b^{2}}$
Ohhhhh
Joanna Angel
and you will see that the nominator will be linear, since the term wil be -2n, but denomiantor wil be expression of degree 2, , that means the degree of denomiantor wil be higehr than nomantor, so limit = 0
bu tyou need to write it nicely only
yes
My handwriting looks so bad lol

would need help with this one - i tried adding rows and columns but it didnt work and got messy... maybe there is another solution?
@junior patio Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> help if possible:)
its 'b' or 'a' that you cut at the last colum
it was an "a" but should be a "b"
i mean the prof corrected that (probably typing mistake)
Did you try to use row operations? It looks like you might be able to get a diagonal matrix
mmh ill try that and post my try here in a moment
Start with r1 + r3 I think youll get a leading 1 that way
@junior patio Has your question been resolved?
Yes you can swap columns, but remember that it will affect your determinant by multiplying by a factor of -1 (just like a row swap)
This looks better than before, you should now be able to do cofactor expansion along particular columns that have a lot of zeroes
aah good idea! (not good in english - is that where i look at the 3x3 matrices and multiply it by the corner so to speak?)
Im on the bus atm but can give it a shot when i get to my office and see what i get as a final answer
would be awesome- ill try out your method in the meantime
Yeah you can start with the 1 in upper left and then multiply by the 3x3 det you get from crossing out the row and column
currently trying that:) thanks and then you get +0+0+0. looks doable at least
so thats my solution so far - kinda looks messy still but im acutally sort of happy with it...
im still new to this discord so i dont know how everythign works but i think im still occupying this help channel so you might want to post this somewhere else next time
as for the answer: x/6+x/3+x/18=180 -> solve for x (=324)
just got to my office, solving it now
we will get an answer in terms of a and b only by the look of the question
Here are my first few steps. I might have picked easier operations to work with than you (I wanted to prevent fractions)
I ended up with this as a final anwer:
Yours looks like it might simplify to something similar, but I probably don't have enough time to check your algebra, sorry!
Can you write in your notebook cuz I didn't understand this
well that look correct! thanks for the huge help very nice of you

,, \delta (t-a) * \delta (t-b) = \delta (t-(a+b))
kanna
ok
.
,,\delta (t-0) * \delta (t-(-2)) = \delta (t-(0-2)) = \delta(t +2)
kanna
For the first one
so delta[n] is delta(t-0) ?
?
I'm just using a different variable
but yes delta[n] = delta[n-0]
it just means it never shifted
of course
I just copied from the professor slides, but since I there is no video about it, Im kinda lost
thats why im asking
would the second one be: delta(t -(1-1)) = delta(t)
?
i'm going to take a nap, but you might want to check the second line here

subtract x^2 -6x from 5x^2-7x-10
What is
$$5x^2 - x^2$$
answer this first
Ok
So Iโm trying to subtract x^2-6 from 5x^2-7x-10
But idk where to start
yeah and what would 5x^2 - x^2 be
What were subtracting
x^2 from 5x^2
This
yup
Ok
if i asked you to subtract 5 from 10 what would you do
Whatโs next
Subtract
? - ? = ?
5
5-10=5
from 10
5?

โ
it would be 10 minus 5
why did you close we havent even got to your question
, if you dont understand something lmk
It wasnโt me
My brother
its okay, anyways do u understand
A bit
okay now answer this, subtract $6x^2$ from $10x^2$
think back to @neon iron
4
?
Idrk sorry
we did
10 - 5 = 5 right
and no that would give you -4 not 4
Oh yh
Wrong way
i think ur still lost on the first example
what is 3 subtracted from 7
Yeah Iโm new to this
Brain hasnโt really processed it yet
I think Iโll just leave it here
Itโs getting late so I gotta go to sleep
which part dont you get
The subtraction part
Iโm really good at this in adding
But subtracting is just more difficult for me
well you havent given me a wrong answer to correct you on
Do u wanna add me so we can do this tomorrow
,
nope i dont add anyone
Oh ok
Np
Have a good day or night

I really don't know where to start with this problem
i think you are supposed to use lhospital rule
but i am confused on how to make it into that form
i already tried just putting it to root 10 and then putting the exponent to infinity making it one but that was wrong so idk at this point
could you do the problem on a piece of paper and then let me interpret it? because idk what you mean be e^log(..)
like do you want me to put the problem in the (...)
?
no, im not familiar with calc sir
Then use property of log and continuity of e
I see. U need to learn from student Chris
if i type property of log and continuity of e into youtube will i get a tutorial on how to do. it
yessir
?
One sec
ok i will try that
This calculus video tutorial explains how to evaluate certain limits at infinity using natural logarithms. It explains where the number e comes from.

i moved all to right and got 0 => 2x^3 +4x^2 -2x -4, should i factor out x first? than i can factor that inside of x
but im not sure if that would guide me to the correct answer
$\2x^3 +4x^2 -2x -4$
$0 \geq 2x^3 +4x^2 -2x -4$
jetblacksalvation
$x(2x^2 +4x^1-2-\frac{4}{x})$

hello, could someone guide me on how to calculate determenants of these?
i feel like i have to use determinant's properties here but i really have no idea where to start
Adding a scalar multiple of a row to another row does not change the determinant
@thin jolt Has your question been resolved?
yeah i remember this one, but is there a way to make these two look like triangular?
second one looks like there's, considering that I can make all B elements turn to 0, so det would be a^n
im not that sure about the first one tho
Not sure about your claim for the second one
For the first one, what happens if, for every row except the last, you subtract the next row to it?
Closed due to timeout
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
.reopen
โ
this will turn the first column to 0
except for the last row
and some of the other elements will turn to 1, not sure because of x๐ซ
or wait
It'd make the 1st column turn to 0 except for the last row
also It'd make X's disappear and my main diagonal would look like 1-x and all the elements above it would be 1?
except for the last row once again
Yes
oh and then I can move the last row and make it first?
No, just try to simplify the last row
lemme play around with it for a bit
I can make it turn to
1 0 0 0 0 ... 0
using the first row right?
cuz the first one now looks like 0 1 1 1 ... 1
so if I multiply it by x and substract the the last row it'd make it look like 1 0 0 0
Not quite
oh right
Yeah except the first column
You know what I think that was actually the correct call 
lol
Wait no
pens up๐๐ป
The whole upper-right triangle is 1's and the whole diagonal is 1-x except the first column
yes
And now the whole lower-left triangle is 0 except the first column
So you can do that again
But scaled by 1/(1-x)
Except if x = 1 but in that case the determinant is just 0 right?
yes cuz it makes the entire main diagonal turn to 0๐ค
I don't think the main diagonal being 0 is a correct argument
$$\begin{vmatrix}
0 & 1 & 1 & ... & 1\
0 & 1-x & 1 & ... & 1\
0 & 0 & 1-x & ... & 1\
... & ... & ... & ... & ...\
1 & 0 & 0 & ... & 1-x
\end{vmatrix}$$
well
determinant equals to 0 if either there's a row that consists of only 0's or there're linearly dependent strings
Nel
Is this correct?
yep I have the same matrix written
yeah me too, I have literally 3 tasks left to finish
these 2 and one more, related to matrix algebra
and yeah im kinda frozen
If x = 0 then the determinant is 0 because the two first rows are identical
Otherwise:
second row - first row -> 0 -x 0 0 ...
then first row + second row * 1/x -> 0 0 1 1 ...
Repeat with every row in place of the second
Except the last
$$\begin{vmatrix}
0 & 0 & 0 & ... & 1\
0 & -x & 0 & ... & 0\
0 & 0 & -x & ... & 0\
... & ... & ... & ... & ...\
1 & 0 & 0 & ... & -x
\end{vmatrix}$$
Nel
this one looks mirrored
-x^(n-2) becase we have 1's in the first and in the last row right๐ค
It's still -x in the diagonal
yea i mean diagonal is 1 -x -x -x ... -x 1
oohhhhhhh
= (-1)^(n-1) x^(n-2)
i guess i got the point
So if x = 0 it's 0, otherwise if n is odd it's x^(n-2), otherwise it's -x^(n-2)
I guess the x=0 part is redundant
(-1)^(n-1) x^(n-2) would be my answer
You may want to double check
I'll try my best but you seem to be muuuuch more confident with matrix than I am
That doesn't mean I don't make mistakes 
where does n-1 in -1^(n-1) comes from tho?
its 2am I love matrixes very much, especially this kind of tasks 
-(-x)^(n-2) has n-1 minus signs
ah

Can someone pls help with finding derivative here
Am i meant to use chain rule on both sides?
Implicitly diff
And solve for dy/dx
Yes
So for the left side: 4(x^2+y^2)(2x+2y*dy/dx)
is that correct?
not sure if im using the chain rule correctly
<@&286206848099549185>
yes correct!
and the right will be: 2x + 2y * dy/dx ?
thanks for the help
yes

There was a little quadratic substitution
Substitute g = 2^a
Then we get g^2 -15g -16 = 0
(g - 16)(g+1) = 0
(2^a - 16)(2^a + 1) = 0

How do I find the line that best approximates a given function in a given interval?
Note that I do not know much statistics or calculus and I'm doing this for myself
My try right now:
Find line l(x) that best approximates f(x) in [a, b]
m = (f(b) - f(a))/(b-a)
l(x) = m(x-a) + f(a) + c
e(x) = |l(x) - f(x)| (error function)
What do i do next?
I think I need to do something with the integral but I'm unsure what

How do you do long division. Topic is polynomials and i need someone to teach me because i cant work out how to do them. Im in grade 10
The steps are complicated and i need a way of remembering them
Do u have a probelm i could work with
I don't remember exactly, but I'm sure there are YT vids on polynomial long division
?
Yeah i tried looking at youtube videos
Ill get a question
Uhh
I dont know how to do this on phone
Wait
This confuses me
Ok so
yello
yk how to do factoring??
actualy
that isnt the best way to teach
Cross multiplication or what
what?
You want to only care about the first number you are dividing by
yeah listen to him
So how much times does x go into x^2
how many times does x go into x^2?
yea twice
x goes into x^2 x times
so you do x * x+ 2
Oh did i
yeah
Which part
its +2x
Oh whoops
Im sorry this is making me frustrated
bc u multiplied the divisor by x
so the full equation gets multiplied by x
Whatabou5 the +2
hence x^2 + 2x
gets multiplied by x
so it gives u this
I hate long division
Which number
and being left with -5x+10
What is the big number
u want to always remove the biggest numbers
x^2 -3x -10
o
But thats the uh
so look at the first number of BOTH numbers
Expression right?
yeah im js referring to it as that
So x and x^2
yeah
Right?
so what do u multiply x by to get x^2
by itself
yeah x
so u multiply x by not only x itself
but 2
bc thats the other part of small number
Cant you just say its 2x?
what do u fet?
It makes it easier
so this would look like this but it would be +2x
not -2x
so now what you get left?
Uuh
So wouldnt it like cancel it out
Isnt there just steps that you could tell me
How am i going to remember this pattern
i really cant
i dont have paper
so i cant show u
Do u want the answer?
i wrote out all my work
Sure
Working out probably wont help tho because i have no jdea where everythibg goes
Im so screwed for this exam ๐ช
multiply where?
In other questions i saw you had to multiply
multiply by -?
Idk
Look its what i saw im probably wrong but uh okay
So for the x+2 do you just make it 2x and always multiply by that whole expression?
I meant divide
Depends on the expressions
In this case we do cause we muktiply (x+2) by x
and when u distribute that you get x^2 + 2x
I cant do this
You got this
Im having a hard time understanding
It might be that im explaining this badly
Im a visual learner and i would probably need someone to point to the numbers and explain that way
Step by step
Im sorry for wasting your time

I understand question b, but I got something different
I noticed that the maximum velocity of the particle will be 6.
To find the time, I could simply put it back into the equation?
6=2-4cost
cos(t)=-1
I get a working angle of pi
Cos is negative in second and third quadrant
pi + pi = 2pi
pi - pi = 0
Calculated the working angle incorrectly
realised I went straight to the answer rather than getting the correct working angle
