oh okay ty

#

this seems similar but more complicated

#

cuz now theres sin and cos

#

same interval

unreal stream
#

ok, that one you have to use identity

#

Here's a hard trigonometric equation for students who are taking trig or precalculus. We will solve cos(2theta)+6sin^2(theta)=4 (i.e. solve cos(2x)+6sin^2(x)=4) on the interval 0 to 2pi. How do we get all the solutions of a trig equation? This math tutorial will help you be good at solving trig equations!

cyan creek
#

In an integral such as integral of 1/sqrtx dx where you use a substitution x=u^2, what happens when you replace the u’s with x’s if there is a singular u term?

cyan creek
#

For example if the answer is 5u, then solving for u, we get u=+-sqrtx

#

Do we take the positive or negative

#

Actually here, the domain for x would be positive so it’s positive, but would there be a case when the domain isn’t an issue and there is a choice of plus and minus?

i know we need to use spherical coordinates and ive found that rho limits are 3 to 0 and the theta limits are 0 to 2 pi

whole nacelle
#

not sure about the phi limits tho

#

i drew a cross section out and have trouble determining the shaded region

@whole nacelle Has your question been resolved?

whole nacelle
#

anyone please

worldly nimbus
#

The shaded region would be the part of sphere bounded by x^2+y^2=z^2 because everything that is inside x^2+y^2=z^2 will also be bounded by x^2+y^2=3z^2

whole nacelle
worldly nimbus
#

Yea

whole nacelle
#

then what would the phi limits be?

worldly nimbus
#

The maximum angle it can make with z axis is 45 degree

neon iron
#

So I am looking at example of telescoping an recurrence relation. And I am wondering how do they the two last lines from?

grave vigil
#

Plug in N=4 into the recurrence relation

#

From the previous two lines

neon iron
#

So why are we plugging values in telescoping?

supple mist
#

working

#

show the terms cancelling

neon iron
#

ohhh, but is the point of telescoping not to show from n-2 to the nth term and then cancel?

topaz sinewBOT
#

@neon iron Has your question been resolved?

neon iron
#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

could you answer this question ^

grave vigil
#

The point of telescoping is to apply a recurrence relation multiple times to find T(N) in simpler terms. In this problem, you can find that T(N) = T(1) + 2c(N-1)

subtle jetty

how do i differentiate this?

topaz sinewBOT
worldly nimbus
#

By chain rule

restive inlet
#

linearity and power rule

subtle jetty
#

idk how to diffentere the 1/3

hasty smelt
#

u dont

subtle jetty
#

?

restive inlet
#

1/3 is just a constant being multiplied
you can consider constant multiply rule

subtle jetty
#

oh

#

does 1/3 becomes to 3/1?

restive inlet
#

no

hasty smelt
#

(C * f(x))´ = C * f'(x)

subtle jetty
#

yes

hasty smelt
#

indeed

subtle jetty
#

c is 1/3 right?

hasty smelt
#

yeah

subtle jetty
#

f(x)is -3

hasty smelt
#

no

#

it's x^3

subtle jetty
#

oh

#

ok

#

let me try to solve it

green gulch
topaz sinewBOT
green gulch
#

what should be my strat here

boreal leaf
#

Try replacing x first

vale furnace
#

basically writing tan as sin/cos and go from there

boreal leaf
#

Answer is -1?

green gulch
#

oh

#

nvm

vale furnace
green gulch
#

nvm back to confused

#

how do i go from there lol

vale furnace
#

okay so we have

#

,, \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{-\cos{(1-3^x)}(1-5^x)}{\sin{(1-3^x)}}

thorny flameBOT
vale furnace
#

well theres no point fatoring out the minus i guess

#

anyway this is

green gulch
#

yes

boreal leaf
#

💀

vale furnace
#

,, 1\cdot\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{(5^x -1)}{\sin{(1-3^x)}}

boreal leaf
#

Don't forget ln5

#

And ln3

thorny flameBOT
boreal leaf
#

Like i did

vale furnace
#

second limit use lhopital skull

green gulch
#

well i cant

#

cuz

#

in my calc 1 course we havent learnt it yet

vale furnace
#

bruh okay let me go eat dinner first and ill come back

green gulch
#

lmao okay np

vale furnace
#

@boreal leaf maybe he can help

boreal leaf
#

Just keep tan

#

Keep tan as it is

green gulch
#

okay

boreal leaf
#

Apply loptial

green gulch
#

well

#

if u read

#

what i just said

boreal leaf
#

Don't forget chain rule

green gulch
#

we havent covered lhopital yet

#

although ik how to use it

vale furnace
boreal leaf
#

Oh shit

green gulch
#

i just want to know how to do this without

#

i am quite bad with limits at the moment

#

am i allowed to use the sinx/x limit here?

boreal leaf
#

Wait

#

I'll try

green gulch
#

i think so

#

and then

#

the limit would go to 1

#

leaving with 5^x-1/1-3^x?

#

is that how it works lol

boreal leaf
#

How did you get the x tho

green gulch
#

what x

boreal leaf
#

For sinx/x

vale furnace
#

oke ill type this rq

green gulch
#

i dont know if it works that way i just guessed

vale furnace
#

,, \text{rewrite this as} \ \frac{5^x -1}{1-3^x} \cdot \frac{1-3^x}{\sin{(1-3^x)}}

#

and use common limit to eval

green gulch
#

yes that is what i did

thorny flameBOT
green gulch
#

do i use logs after?

#

ln5/ln3?

vale furnace
#

yes

green gulch
#

yay

#

thanks

vale furnace
green gulch
#

i have another limit lol

#

it looks

#

even worse

vale furnace
green gulch
#

i used lhopital and got 16/3 but how to do without 🥲

vale furnace
#

ill look after dinner

#

if someone hasnt by then

green gulch
#

thanks

topaz sinewBOT
#

@green gulch Has your question been resolved?

vale furnace
#

okay here we can use 3 standards limits namely,
\begin{alignat*}{2}
&\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\tan{x}}{x}& =& \ 0 \
&\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\ln{(1+x)}}{x}& =& \ 0 \
&\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{e^x -1}{x}& =& \ 0
\end{alignat*}

green gulch
#

okay

vale furnace
#

hm

thorny flameBOT
vale furnace
#

sorry i was just fixxing the latex

green gulch
#

yep

vale furnace
#

you can express each part of your limit in terms of these standard lims

#

see if you can see that

green gulch
#

okay

#

ill try

vale furnace
#

ah wait i just realised i mistyped all that lol

#

[
\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\tan{x}}{x} = 1,
]
[
\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\ln{(1+x)}}{x} = 1,
]
[
\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{e^x -1}{x} = 1.
]

thorny flameBOT
vale furnace
#

not 0

green gulch
#

wow okay i was a bit confused lol

#

so ive gotten to

#

$(ln(1+16x^2))/3x^2

#

$(ln(1+16x^2))/3x^2$

thorny flameBOT
green gulch
#

i suck at latex

#

is this correct

#

@vale furnace

#

i got it

#

thanks a lot

#

i should memorise the standard limits

oblique bolt
#

forgot this stuff

marble gate
#

split it into two rectangles

#

in fact it works either way you want to split it

oblique bolt
#

so if I do bottom one, I do 5 by 2

marble gate
#

yep

#

that would be this split

#

so what would be the other rectangle's size?

oblique bolt
marble gate
#

7*3?

#

that's only this bit

#

you're missing that square in the bottom

oblique bolt
#

10 for the bottom and 21 for other

#

35?

#

why that

#

where does the 3 come in?

#

do I do the usual multply those by the .5 (1/2*bh)

#

got it so the area formula for rectangle is l*w i remember now

#

is this right?? I tried breaking it into two objects liek yall said

#

it said my asnwer was wrong when I added the triangle and rectangles areas together

#

how??

#

22 isnt the height of the entire shape?

#

thats confusing but ill try to plug in the number

#

so is the rectangle is 864?

#

the are for it

#

oh mb i forgot to clear

#

and the the top is 48*7

How do I find the horizontal/vertical asymptote of $y=3(0.5^x)-4$

thorny flameBOT
formal moat
# neon iron How do I find the horizontal/vertical asymptote of $y=3(0.5^x)-4$

so when we want to look for asymptotes we are using a few tricks,

  1. are there any values for x that makes the function undefined
    example: dividing with zero, 3/(x-1) in this case if x is 1 we would have an undefined function. this usally finds the vertical

  2. we look what happens for extremly large and extremly small values of x. to see what actually happens to the curve.
    example: y=e^x+2 we can see that for very small values of x the e^x part will dissapear leaving us with y=+2 which will be the asymptot

Hope this help

dusty pelican
#

is it possible for the sum of a constructible number and an inconstructible number to be a constructible number?

dusty pelican
#

rightttt okay that makes sense. is it the same idea for the product and quotient of a constructible and inconstructible number?

#

Do you happen to know what the case is for two inconstructible numbers? are they closed under addition, multiplication, and division provided they are distinct inconstructible numbers, or is that not even true?

#

wait nevermind, im dumb

#

of course that cant be true

How do I factor secx(sec^2 x)-secxtanx (tanx-1)

haughty oxide

#

whats it w ppl just giving out answers lol

noble laurel
topaz sinewBOT
# haughty oxide Hey

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

half edge
#

@haughty oxide try to guide them instead of posting the solution lol

haughty oxide
#

Oh, I was going to explain the method now. Oops

#

My bad

half edge
#

u good, just know for future reference

noble laurel
#

Instead, ask guiding questions and help them through the problem, explain along the way where necessary if they have questions. Not the biggest deal ever 👍🏼

haughty oxide
#

Thanks so much!

strange coral
haughty oxide
strange coral
#

Okay thank you

haughty oxide
#

Oh lol, I made a mistake anyways

strange coral
#

lmaooo

haughty oxide
#

Okay so, that solution doesn't work. Let's try again

#

So the expression contains secx and tanx, so we probably need to use the identity 1+tan^2x=sec^2x

#

Our main objective will be to get to a point where that will help us

strange coral
#

Alright

haughty oxide
#

So firstly, how could we start the factoring? Is there anything in common?

strange coral
#

the sec x?

haughty oxide
#

Perfect. So let's factor out a secx to start

strange coral
#

Thats where I got lost didnt know how to take it out\

haughty oxide
#

Oh okay. So secx is just a term, right. When we factor it out we get something like this

#

secx*(sec^2x-tanx(tanx-1))

#

Can you see why?

strange coral
#

No can you explain please?

haughty oxide
#

Okay, so we have 2 terms, secx*(sec^2x) and secxtanx(tanx-1), correct?

strange coral
#

yes

haughty oxide
#

So since secx is in common, we're going to factor that out from both terms
What that means is we're going to remove 1 secx from each term and multiply it on the outside. Does that make sense?

strange coral
#

yes

#

Thank you

haughty oxide
#

Welcome!

haughty oxide
#

Do you see anything we can do now?

strange coral
#

factor out tan?

haughty oxide
#

Hmmm. Is tan in common?

strange coral
#

only in the latter part

#

but you been in the full equation?

#

mean*

#

Sorry im exhausted.

haughty oxide
#

yeah, in the full thing

#

Not a problem. It's like 2am here lol

haughty oxide
strange coral
#

probably not?

haughty oxide
#

Yeah, we can't, since tan isn't in common

#

Instead, maybe try something else

#

Sometimes, in order to factor properly, you need to distribute first

strange coral
#

so distrube tan?

haughty oxide
#

Perfect!

#

So what do we have after we do that?

strange coral
#

sec x(sec^2x-tan^2x+tanx)?

haughty oxide
#

Perfect

#

And now, do you have any ideas?

strange coral
#

Was thinking a trig identities but dont think any would help at this point yet?

haughty oxide
#

That's a great instinct. Actually, they're perfect to use now

strange coral
#

Really?

haughty oxide
#

Which identity can we use?

haughty oxide
strange coral
#

most likely tan^2x+1=sec^2x?

#

to make it all tan in the ()

haughty oxide
#

Perfect. What do we get after that?

strange coral
#

secx(tanx+1)

#

?

haughty oxide
#

Perfect!

#

And voila

strange coral
#

Thank you so much!

haughty oxide
#

Welcome!

#

Anytime

(x-2)/(x-2) is equivalent to 1 ONLY if x≠2

#

Otherwise it is undefined

#

That is why

#

And a function can’t be continuous where it isn’t defined

#

So there will be a hole at the point x=2

sweet shard
#

it does change the graph

#

yes?

#

so?

#

it just does?

#

why don't you think it's possible?

#

follows from dividing by 0 being undefined

#

or you could learn to define functions piecewise

im pretty sure i need to do mod 4 here, but the -7y is a bit of a problem

vale furnace
#

do mod 7

toxic stirrup
#

mod 7?

hazy pumice
#

If there was a solution in the integers, then 7|(x^2 - 10)

#

(The expression is a multiple of 7)

toxic stirrup
#

is there something nice fro squares mod 7

#

bc mod 3 might also work

vale furnace
# toxic stirrup mod 7?

similar to how you were doing mod 4 but mod 4 doesnt work here because x^2 = 0,1 mod 4 and 7x = 0,1,2,3 mod 4

#

why would you do mod 3 when mod 7 is a lot more straightforward

#

in fact mod 3 doesnt work

hazy pumice
#

Please show your work once you have it because I am interested in seeing how this plays out hmmCat

# toxic stirrup im pretty sure i need to do mod 4 here, but the -7y is a bit of a problem

To prove that the equation x^2 - 7y = 10 has no integer solutions, consider the equation modulo 7. If x^2 - 7y is congruent to 10 modulo 7, then x^2 is congruent to 3 modulo 7. Checking all possible residues of x^2 modulo 7 (0^2 ≡ 0, 1^2 ≡ 1, 2^2 ≡ 4, 3^2 ≡ 2, 4^2 ≡ 2, 5^2 ≡ 4, 6^2 ≡ 1), we find that none is congruent to 3. Therefore, the equation has no integer solutions, as there is no integer value of x that satisfies x^2 ≡ 3 (mod 7). This proof relies on the fact that the quadratic residues modulo 7 are 0, 1, 2, and 4, and none of them is congruent to 3 modulo 7.

deep crow
#

How do i do this

topaz sinewBOT
winter temple
#

Where are you stuck on?

deep crow
#

Beginning

#

I cant figure out what to do

winter temple
#

Is this a multiple choice question

#

You know that f’(x) represents right?

deep crow
#

derivative of f

deep crow
#

i have the ansewr but i want to know the process of getting to it

winter temple
#

For now you can think of f’(a) as the slope of tangent to f(x) at x=a

#

The question told you the slope of the tangent should be -1

#

So you should check the slopes of all the options

#

The one with slope -1 is the answer

deep crow
#

they all have -x

winter temple
#

Oh

#

Then you can just plug in the values into f(x)

#

Wait…

topaz sinewBOT
#

@deep crow Has your question been resolved?

winter temple
#

Hmm I guess
just use calculator to find which value of x satisfies f’(x)=-1

winter temple
#

(.934,f(.934)) is a point the tangent passes through

#

The tangent has the following point slope form:
y - f(.934) = -1 (x - .934)

#

Tangent: y = -x + (.934 + f(.934))

deep crow
#

i got .836 now tho

deep crow
winter temple
deep crow
#

How do i find the value of x?

winter temple
#

It should be -.934

deep crow
#

Oh yeah my bad

#

forgot about the negative

winter temple
deep crow
winter temple
#

Well yes

deep crow
#

Im kinda confused on how you knew that that was the point the tangent passes

winter temple
#

f’(a) is the slope of tangent to f(x) at x=a right?

deep crow
#

yea

winter temple
#

would this imply that the tangent pass through (a,f(a))

deep crow
#

yes

#

oh

#

i get it now

#

alr thanks

restive bear
#

i have no clue where to start on this

fathom loom
#

first set the equation = 0

#

$sin(2x)+5 - 2^x =0$

thorny flameBOT
#

gianky.e

restive bear
#

Yeah thats what i figured, but wouldn’t you need a calculator from there?

fathom loom
#

now pick a random interval lets call it [a,b] and make sure with f(a) > 0 and f(b) <0 or f(a) <0 and f(b) >0. then there exists a point call it c such that f(c) = 0

restive bear
#

so you just apply random intervals till you find something that works?

fathom loom
#

yeah

#

say a = 0 and b = pi

#

try that

#

u know already that sin(2pi) = 0

restive bear
#

f(a) would be 4

#

f(b) would be 5 - 2^pi

fathom loom
#

then f(a) > 0 and f(b) <0

#

then all u gotta say is that there exists a point c such that sin(2c) + 5 - 2^c = 0

restive bear
#

wait so it’d be like this?

fathom loom
#

There are many intervals you can put

restive bear
fathom loom
#

yeah

#

just say that you picked a = 0 and b = pi

restive bear
#

so you could just put any two intervals that apply and that’d be it

#

no matter how broad it is

fathom loom
#

yeah as long as the condition meets

restive bear
#

oh dang

#

really overthought that one then

#

thank you!

fathom loom
#

honestly you can pick any interval but pick easy numbers so you wont have to use a calculator

#

anytime 🙂

restive bear

thank you

normal umbra
#

hey

topaz sinewBOT
normal umbra
#

i have a question to use my line of best fit to estimate y when x = 2.5

keen matrix
#
  1. what's your data set?
  2. what's your line of best fit?
normal umbra
keen matrix
#

,rccw

thorny flameBOT
keen matrix
#

so simply just plug in 2.5 into your line of best fit, such an extrapolation is well within the range of your data set, no? :)

keen matrix
#

you have the equation for your line of best fit?

normal umbra
#

thanks

#

wait i got another question

#

if i have an equation y = 3 over 5x + 380

keen matrix
#

$y=\frac{3}{5}x+380$

normal umbra
#

oh no

#

3 over 5

#

is next to x

thorny flameBOT
#

PajamaMamaLlama

normal umbra
#

yeh

#

but how would i use that to "use ur equation to estimate the cost of construction of a house that is 300 metres squared"

keen matrix
#

$\widehat{\text{constructioncost}}=\frac{3}{5}\cdot300+380$, no? :)

thorny flameBOT
#

PajamaMamaLlama

normal umbra
#

what does that dot mean\

keen matrix
#

multiplication

normal umbra
#

oh ok thanks

#

wait ima try it

keen matrix
#

you can plug in 300 into your equation

#

and that tells you the estimate for the construction cost given 300 meters squared

normal umbra
#

how did u know that x would be the metres squared tho?

keen matrix
#

well that's what your equation is in terms of, right?

normal umbra
#

yea

keen matrix
#

so then yes, x is in meters squared

normal umbra
#

i still dont get it ngl

#

why couldnt metres squared be y?

#

if ur plugging it into y = mx + c

normal umbra
keen matrix
#

y is construction cost, x is house size in meters squared

normal umbra
#

idk how they r chosen

\m d{x,y,z,t} &= \m\Sigma{0,4,6,12}
}
thorny flameBOT
neon iron
#

im a bit confused here

#

the function is given in terms of its maxterms

#

converting to its minterms gives [
\m\Pi{1,5,7,8,9,11,13} = \m\Sigma{0,2,3,4,6,10,12,14,15}
]

thorny flameBOT
neon iron
#

but there is some overlap between the don't care conditions and the minterms in here, so what is going on?

hollow drum
#

So with your 4 term function, the kmap is a 4 x 4, you can fill in the don't cares and the max terms as 0s then the rest are 1s

\end{tabular}
neon iron
#

i get this

#

does this work?

hollow drum
#

Yeah, you can find the function from that now

neon iron
#

so we get x'y'z out of that

#

third row xyz similarly

#

and then lastly the fourth row xy'zt'

hollow drum
neon iron
#

i mean there is a 1 there

hollow drum
#

That is true, but a don't care bit can be in a grouping

neon iron
#

right

#

what would be a nice way to group it up

#

hmmm

#

does this work

#

maybe

hollow drum
#

Nope

#

You want groups that are powers of 2

neon iron
#

yeah thats 2 and 4 cells respectively

hollow drum
#

Powers of two that form rectangles, I'm assuming that orange line, you indicate is a group of 4 but it's a T shape

hollow drum
# neon iron

If you want a hint, you should have 3 groupings

neon iron
hollow drum
#

Well, as mentioned, the don't cares can be included

#

So you have the red line one

#

The one in the third row, the zt/z!t is a grouping

#

Then the entire 4th column is a grouping

neon iron
#

its fine to have overlap?

hollow drum
#

Yes

#

Kmaps overlap all the time

neon iron
#

ah yeah is ee

#

so we have

#

\let\1\conj[
\1x\1yz+xyz+z\1t
]

thorny flameBOT
hollow drum
#

That would the SOP for that kmap

neon iron
#

great

#

another question i have

#

"Write the Boolean expression for the output of a 2-to-1 Multiplexer and draw the corresponding logic diagram. What is the propagation delay of a 2-to-1 Multiplexer?"

im pretty sure its simply [

]
right?

#

source: ||2023 thailand MO, P3||

#

i’ve only gotten to ||f(0)=0 by P(0, 0) and f(-c)=-f(c) by P(y, x)||

#

i’ve tried subbing different stuffs like ||(x, -y)|| and ||(-x, -y)|| to try to abuse the fact that ||x^2=(-x)^2|| but that didnt help a lot

#

i need a hint

pulsar sun
#

On the MODS server

edgy quail
#

no its not

pulsar sun
#

And obviously if u have noticed f(0) = 0 then u must have seen f(x)=0 is a solution too

pulsar sun
edgy quail
#

but i cant just claim that

pulsar sun
#

Wdym?

edgy quail
#

currently my guesses rn is f = 0 or x

edgy quail
#

that's not the end

#

rn my idea is

#

assume f isnt 0 (because we know f=0 worls) and try going on from there

pulsar sun
edgy quail
#

f(x) = x works

#

rn i am tryijg to use the fact that f(-x) = -f(x) and the fact that x^2 = (-x)^2 to do stuff rn

pulsar sun
#

Also constant functions i.e. f(x) = c is only satisfied when c=0

edgy quail
#

but i've tried subbing (x, -y) ans f(-x, -y) and that was not very helpful

pulsar sun
#

Lemme see if I can work something out

edgy quail
#

so can i have a hint

#

wait maybe injectivity/surjectivity

#

lemme see ah

#

assuming f =/= 0, take x_0 st f(x_0)=/=0, now plug y_1 and t_2

#

y_2*

#

such tgat f(y_1)=f(y_2)

pulsar sun
#

Notice that since f(-x) = -f(x) therefore if f(x) is a polynomial it must be of odd degree

edgy quail
#

you can just say "f is odd"

#

which goes for all functions not only polynomials

pulsar sun
edgy quail
#

ok

#

cool

edgy quail
pulsar sun
#

Do u have the answer?

edgy quail
#

let's try proving injectivity

pulsar sun
#

To the question

edgy quail
#

i'm pretty sure it's f = 0 or identity

#

don't spoil me

#

ok no

edgy quail
#

$f(x_0)f(y_1)f(x_0-y_1)=(x_0)^2f(y_1)-(y_1)^2f(x_0)\
f(x_0)f(y_2)f(x_0-y_2)=(x_0)^2f(y_2)-(y_2)^2f(x_0)$

thorny flameBOT
#

candies

edgy quail
#

ok lets see if i can 抵銷 stuff

#

lemme 相減

#

$f(x_0)f(y_1)[f(x_0-y_1)-f(x_0-y_2)]=f(x_0)(y_2^2-y_1^2)$

thorny flameBOT
#

candies

edgy quail
#

so $f(y_1)[f(x_0-y_1)-f(x_0-y_2)]=(y_2^2-y_1^2)$

thorny flameBOT
#

candies

edgy quail
#

uh.

What do the values in P represent and what do the values of x represent in this question?

strange whale
#

P is a partition of [0, 1], i.e. you break [0, 1] into multiple parts to approximate the integral of f

#

that's what you should be seeing

#

and the x* are a choice of points inside each of these subdivisions (and you use the values of f(x*) to approx the value of the function on the whole interval containing x*)

Are you sure?

odd pagoda

why should it be discontinuous at uncountably many points?

#

its discontinuous on Q

#

rationals are countable

#

yes but its continuous at the irrationals

#

I mean exactly what I said

#

if x is irrational then f is continuous at x

#

yes

#

which is completely fine

#

you are completely mixing up the statements here

#

since the limit of (1+1/n)^n is e, can i just say the limit of (1-1/n)^(-n) is also e because plugging in (-n) gives us a subsequence and thus must converge to the same limit?

neon iron
#

or since the indices are negative it doesnt count as a subsequence?

topaz sinewBOT
#

@neon iron Has your question been resolved?

orchid brook
#

Is that expression correct?

#

Exponent is -1?

neon iron
#

my bad, its -n

orchid brook
#

Well, it will be e

#

It is just as if n tends to -infinity

#

I did not get the reasoning however

neon iron
#

any subsequence will converge to the same limit, so if the original sequence is (1+1/n)^n, plugging in (-n) gives us (1-1/n)^(-n) which also converges to e because it is a subsequence

#

is that valid?

vernal matrix
#

because it is a subsequence
no it isn't SCsadkittyNO

neon iron
#

okay, thats where i had doubts. is it because were not skipping any indices, just making them negative?

vernal matrix
#

Pretty much yeah - subsequences basically have to "skip indices" (basically being created from a subsequence of the indices) and so you can't e.g. "go backwards"

neon iron
#

i see. so what would the reasoning be instead?

neon iron
orchid brook
#

Do you know the proof why it is e?

#

You use l'hospital rule

orchid brook
neon iron
#

we are just supposed to use the fact that (1+1/n)^n has limit e, we have not studied l'hopitals rule yet

N(t)=787*1.14',
where N(t) denotes the number of gray seal pups at the time † (measured in number of years after 1970).
■a) Determine N'(t).

#

i get it to 0

#

but its wrong

#

idk what i did wrong tho

karmic dove
#

what is 1.4' ?

#

are you reading function correctly?

subtle jetty
#

ye?

subtle jetty
#

ye

karmic dove
subtle jetty
#

how do i solve it

#

i get to 0 but its wrong

#

ai says -1.14?

hollow drum
subtle jetty
#

?

hollow drum
#

That says n(t) := 787 * 1.14

#

It's suppose to be n(t) := 787 * 1.14^t

subtle jetty
#

oh

hollow drum
#

Because you had two constants originally and the derivative of constants is 0

subtle jetty
#

its still 0

hollow drum
#

Because you have n(x) now

#

You have a function n of x with variables of t

hollow drum
subtle jetty
#

oh

#

i got it right now i think

#

thx u guys

#

wait

#

isnt it -1.14

#

nvm

When doing question b and wanting to show that it counts for n+1, should I then use the recursive function ?

#

Should I set it up as 2*s_n+2 = 2^n+1 - 2 ?

#

I have a few questions:

A) Is the base case just putting 1 on n's place since we have Z >_ 1?
B) Whats is the step after? THe inductive or hypothesis steP?

odd jacinth
#

s_n = 2^n-2
show that s_(n+1) = 2^(n+1)-2

#

base case can be s_1 = 0

wide bane
#

We first set our base case up to show that s_n = 2^n - 2 holds for n = 1, since that is the smallest value.

s_1 = 2^1 - 2 = 2 - 2 = 0. Since this is true, which we know from the recursive function, we assume that s_n = 2^n - 2 for alle n in Z larger or equal to 1. Therefore it must also hold for n+1. We will now prove this by induction:

S_n+1 = 2 * S_n + 2 = 2 * (2^n - 2) + 2 = 2 * 2^n - 4 + 2 = 2^n+1 - 2

#

We first set our base case up to show that $s_n = 2^n - 2$ holds for $n = 1$, since that is the smallest value.

[ s_1 = 2^1 - 2 = 2 - 2 = 0. ]
Since this is true, which we know from the recursive function, we assume that $s_n = 2^n - 2$ for all $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ larger or equal to 1. Therefore it must also hold for $n+1$. We will now prove this by induction:

[ S_{n+1} = 2 \cdot S_n + 2 = 2 \cdot (2^n - 2) + 2 = 2^{n+1} - 4 + 2 = 2^{n+1} - 2 ]

@odd jacinth

#

Is this a good induction proof?

odd jacinth
#

for all n >= 1
then you're already assuming it for n+1 :c

wide bane
odd jacinth
#

no you assume it's true for an integer n (that s_n = 2^n - 2), and then you show it's true for s_(n+1)

#

if you're already assuming the result there's no reason to prove it

wide bane
#

So I should instead write: "Since this is true, which we know from the recursive function, we assume that s_n = 2^n - 2 for n. We know wish to prove inductively that it holds for n + 1" ?

odd jacinth
#

well we don't know it's true for all n before doing the induction

#

we assume [it's true] for all n >= 1
then it's what the question asked, nothing left to prove, question done

#

the point is to not assume the result, it's showing that if it's true for some n it's true for all the integers after

wide bane
#

How would you write it ?

#

like explicitly

odd jacinth
#

Base step: n = 1 checked
Induction step: We assume there exists n in N which satisfies the property s_n = 2^n-2. Then s_(n+1) = 2s_n+2 = 2(2^n-2)+2 = 2^(n+1)-2, therefore n+1 satisfies it too.
In conclusion, the said property is true for all integers n >= 1

#

The whole point of a proof by induction is that you have a property P(x), P(k) true for some k
and then you show P(n) implies P(n+1)
so P(k) implies P(k+1) => P(k+2) => P(k+3) => ... for any integer m >= k you want

wide bane
#

you mean n in Z?

odd jacinth
#

doesn't matter since s_n isn't defined for n < 1

wide bane
#

so its not wrong to write n in Z?

odd jacinth
#

it's not wrong bc you'll write n >= 1 anyway

#

exactly bc you need a base step

#

for a proof by induction to make sense

wide bane
#

okay

wide bane
odd jacinth
#

yes

wide bane
#

We assume there exists n in the natural numbers which satisfies the property s_n = 2^n - 2

odd jacinth
#

in terms of math logic, we're showing P(n) => P(n+1)

#

Base step of an induction: P(k) is true for some k
Induction step: we show P(n) implies P(n+1)
Conclusion: P(k)=>P(k+1)=>...=>P(m) for all m >= k, so P(m) is true for all m >= k

#

that's what an induction does in math logic

#

and to show P(n) implies P(n+1), we assume P(n) and deduce P(n+1)

#

that's why induction is like it is

wide bane
#

So for this one the first steps would be:

"We first set up our base case and put 0 in n's place to see if it holds for the smallest value:

(1+h)^0 >= 1 + 0* h.

1 >= 1

We assume that there is n in Z >= 0 which holds that (1+h)^n >= 1+nh"

#

@odd jacinth

odd jacinth
#

Z >=0 yes

wide bane
#

yea

wide bane
#

Im trying to think

odd jacinth
#

The property we will prove is P(n): (1+h)^n >= 1+nh for all n >= 0
Base step: n = 0 checked
Induction step: we assume there exists n >= 0 such that P(n) true, ie (1+h)^n >= 1+nh.
From that, we want to deduce P(n+1): (1+h)^(n+1) >= 1+(n+1)h is true.

wide bane
#

right

wide bane
#

we want n+1 on one side I guess

odd jacinth
#

I would multiply by (1+h) and see how things turn out

#

(1+h)^n >= 1+nh so (1+h)^(n+1) >= (1+h)(1+nh)

#

= 1 + h + nh + nh² > 1+(n+1)h

vital gulch
#

suppose we had the function f: reals --> reals, where f(x) = x^2

can someone explain how f(x) = x^2 becomes invertible if we restrict its domain to x =>0

i thought that only bijective functions can be invertible?

if we restrict the domain to x => 0 doesn't f only become an injective function? thus by definition it's not invertible?

or do we assume that our codomain becomes restricted to positive reals, thus making f a bijective function?

manic swan
vital gulch
#

yea i understand that

manic swan
#

Like this it's doesn't work
But if you because the inverse function have 2 vlaues

vital gulch
#

but the problem is i thought a function is only invertible if it's bijective

manic swan
#

+sqrt(x) and also -sqrt(x)

vital gulch
#

if we restrict the domain of x it's still not bijective

#

assuming our codomain is all reals

manic swan
#

But if you take only one part which x² from x>= 0 then you will get the inverse is sqrt(x)

#

If you take x<0 then you will get the inverse as -sqrt(x)

loud oasis
#

the range of x² is the positive reals regardless of any restriction

vital gulch
loud oasis
#

the codomain must also be the positive reals

manic swan
#

Think about if like this

vital gulch
#

for x^2 to be a bijective function

loud oasis
#

yes, which is why we restrict it to x ≥ 0

vital gulch
#

ok so both the codomain and the domain are restricted to x => 0

#

for the function to become bijective

#

and therefore invertible

vital gulch
loud oasis
#

the codomain is only the positive reals regardless of whether the domain is restricted, so for it to be bijective we must restrict the domain to match

vital gulch
#

but the codomain can be anything right?
for x^2 the range is only positive reals

#

but the codomain can be reals

,, f(x)= 2 \cdot 3 ^{-(x+4)}-8

topaz sinewBOT
thorny flameBOT
#

Akira (fumo)

ivory wave
#

I've began but I'd like to get corrected

#

the parent function is 3^x

#

horizontal asymptoe is y=-8

reef fjord
ivory wave
#

y-int is $\left(0, -7 \frac{79}{81}\right)$

thorny flameBOT
#

Akira (fumo)

reef fjord
#

y int is just plugging in 0?

ivory wave
#

now somewhat stuck at transformations

ivory wave
reef fjord
#

why it a fraction then

#

:(

ivory wave
#

i let x = 0 and solve for y

#

is that correct?

reef fjord
#

oh right

#

negative exponent

#

dumb

ivory wave
#

lol

#

ok so now getting stuck at transformation

#

do i need to transform 3^x?

reef fjord
#

wydm

#

like what transformations does this function represent of 3^x?

#

is that what you're asking?

ivory wave
#

no like can i transform 3^x as well?

ivory wave
#

here's a shortcut for it and the table dw

#

can i transform 2 and 3^x?

#

I know HT 4 by left and VT 8 down

#

what about 2 and 3^x?

reef fjord
#

2 could be interpreted as various different things with exponent properties, but most clearly as a vertical stretch

#

i'm a bit confused by what you're asking

#

3^x is the parent function

#

f(x)

ivory wave
#

ye I know but do i need to transform it or no?

#

only 2?

#

since 3^x is a parent function i get that

reef fjord
#

are you asking if you can do this with only two transformations, if so, i believe you can

#

because 2 can be seen as 3^log3(2)

#

and you can add it to the exponent

#

and with a bit of manipulation of terms, it can be viewed as a shifting term

#

so only a vertical shift, and a horizontial shift

#

:)

#

@ivory wave

ivory wave
#

correct?

reef fjord
#

you can combine the VS and HT

#

but yes, that's right

#

i should've said 3 transformations of 3^x

#

i keep forgetting the negative

#

lmao

#

VS and HT are the same-ish with exponential functions

#

i.e. you can view a VS as a certain HT

#

and vice versa

ivory wave
#

don't we need to use the b as transform?

#

the k is negative

#

so RYA

reef fjord
#

why is there 2 ks

ivory wave
#

reflection in y-axis

ivory wave
#

can i just say RYA since there's a negative?

#

<@&286206848099549185> meow

reef fjord
#

i'm fine with what you have as RYA, i'm just confused where you're confused lmao

#

what do you need corrected exactly

ivory wave
#

you can't transform 3^x since it's a parent function

#

right?

reef fjord
#

are you trying to transform 3^x to match the function you have now?

ivory wave
#

no im asking if i can transform it typically?

#

even it's a parent function

#

like for example this one

#

the parent function is 2^x

reef fjord
#

yes

ivory wave
#

it did not transform it

#

(my teacher did that example)

#

so i can't do same thing for 3^x?

reef fjord
#

I'm still so confused what you mean by 'not transform it';

ivory wave
#

;-;

#

I'm just asking since 3^x is a parent function, can it be transformed or not

ivory wave
#

so yes or no?

reef fjord
ivory wave
#

how did you type dot in desmos

reef fjord
#

*

ivory wave
#

can i transform 3^x or no?

reef fjord
#

can you transform 3^x into that function?

ivory wave
#

$f(x)= 2 \cdot \textcolor{red}{3} ^{-(x+4)}-8$

thorny flameBOT
#

Akira (fumo)

ivory wave
#

this guy

#

in red

reef fjord
#

you want to reverse f(x) to make 3^x?

ivory wave
reef fjord
#

brain

ivory wave
reef fjord
#

OK

#

are you asking if you can apply transformations purely to the 3^x in f(x)

#

aghh

ivory wave
#

yes

ivory wave
#

can i also not do it for 3^x since it's a parent function?

reef fjord
#

you only apply those sorts of transformationns when theres a HT, HS and HC

#

cause those are the 'inside' of the parent function

ivory wave
#

ight

#

ty for your time
