Its not because I said there should be a negative, you should try to figure out why the negative is there
well maybe it'[s because in the equation y = a(x+4)(x-1)
we just have to combine -4 and 1?
Yes, when you expand it, you get ax^2+3ax-4a
why is there an a after 3 and -4
And we are told that this is equal to x^2+bx+c
If you compare the coefficients of x^2, a should be 1
OH CUZ WE EXPLANDED IT WITHOUT KNOWING A
Yes
ok thanks a lot i understand now
i didn't realize we could just divide everything by a and completely get rid of it
wait a second
can we?
No, we have deduced that ax^2+3ax-4a = x^2+bx+c for all x, which means the coefficients have to be the same
The coefficient of x^2 in the right hand side is 1 and in the left hand side is a, so a=1
No other case tho
no case when a =/ 1
anyway no worries i got it
thank

How would i start this?
Actually i think i know how to do it correct me if im wrong. It's (6 choose 2) because you have 6 numbers to choose for for x1 and x2. then its (10 choose 2) because you have 8-17 numbers to choose from for x4 and x5
Yeah that's right
Do you understand why this is counting the numbers where x_1 < x_2 < x_3 < x_4 < x_5?
yea thats how i arrived at my solution
Yeah but do you understand why (6 choose 2) corresponds to the number of ways to choose x_1, x_2 such that x_1 < x_2?
I don't really understand your explanation
But I'll just say, that when you choose x_1 and x_2 from {1, 2, ..., 6}
You can take x_1 to be the smaller one, and x_2 to be the bigger one
And the choose function doesn't care about the order
yea sorry thats what i meant. coudnt write it down properly
and we have identical process for x_4 and x_5

https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/3943934/why-is-it-okay-to-take-out-the-constant-when-finding-asymptotes-or-hyperbola
in the answer given by Z Ahmed here, they said that $$L_1 L_2=\pm s^2$$ is the most general form of a hyperbola, where $L_1=0$ and $L_2=0$ are any two lines and s is any real number
kheerii
my question is, why does this form represent every possible hyperbola? how can we prove this?
I haven't been able to prove this myself. Something I tried is rawdogging the entire thing by taking general forms for L1 and L2 and trying to convert it to the form $$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=e^2\frac{(lx+my+n)^2}{l^2+m^2}, e>1$$ which obviously didn't work
kheerii
my next thought was that there might be some series of linear transformations (like shown in the famous Matt Parker video about parabolas) which may lead to this same result
I'm not very familiar with Linear Transformations though, which is why I need someone's help
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoh4TmPzu1w this is the one I am talking about btw

@coarse tusk Has your question been resolved?
Okay, well if you want to show that that's the general form of any parabola, $L_1 = ax+by+c, L_2 = dx+ey+f$, then complete the square
doaby
that should work
or something along those lines, im assuming you just want to reduce that to the form of a hyperbolic equation

Hello
I'm working on this problem
but I'm not sure exactly where to start
when I look online, a lot of people are using the disjunctive and conjunctive syllogisms, but our class hasnt covered those topics yet
so far, all i have to work with are a table of common valid argument forms, and a table of some logical equivalencies
Is it possible to prove the conclusion "∴ u ∧ w" from these resources, or am i missing some necessary tools?
I'm also curious if there's a more systematic way to approach this problem, rather than guessing and checking

Sounds good and reasonable?
Isolate that shit
I might be tripping
Forget about what I had said
How to solve questions like this?
isolate t
Is it common to transfer that shit into a base-10 logarithm
yes
Why should we do this?
do what
Transferring that shit into base-10 log instead a base-3 or some
most calculators only have buttons for log 10
Ohh
May I ask why
But the whole thing is made by human
God wouldn’t know
it just means that i dont fucking know lol
Why because he’s ugly?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
What a cocky human, arrogant
but yeah base 10 logs is what most people use
I see
along with the natural log
I should have canceled out these common factors on both sides
Before I transferred them into log shits
For calculation convenience
Is that true?
yeah
Why
because smaller numbers are easier to work with
That’s ambiguous
Why
Why more smaller, more easier to work with
you mean why we should cancel those common factors
Yes before we turn them into logs
i mean you dont have to
it is usually recommended to do that
Why
Why
No, I think it is about efficiency
and that
You have to prove that employing such a move can grant more efficiency In calculations
Than do not employing it
Is all of these canceling out common factors would be harder to (take more steps) achieve after we transferring it into logarithm
Be objective
hmm
technically yes because you would need to do an extra step of cancelling those common factors
What kind of “extra steps”, would you mind making a example?
Like be specific
like 10000/22500
you first figure out what common factors are there
you can see 100 is a common factor
Yes
dividing that you get 100/225
then you have to figure out what the common factor of these two numbers are
spoilers: its 25
It is 5^2 I suppose
Yes
Then we compare that with log simplification
And judge them objectively
Log(10000/22500)
Cannot I do the exactly same thing?
Then why would you claim that simplification would be harder in log form?
^
Is it cognitive bias?
Why would you claim that
oh so you're questioning the order of the steps
?
It seems like both ways are almost identical, but one is expressed in log form while the other is not
They are the same in terms of complexity, the simplification
Which poses a problem to your claim
well then i formally apologise for my logical error
As you states that we should cancel these common factors out before taking it into log form
And it would be easier to operate
What specific logical error is it? Would you categorize it as confirmation bias?
I mean you have been told/ recommended such manipulation can simplify the operation
You have been told and employing the thing repetitively.
That prompts the confirmation bias in your mind
Implant a bias in your mind
fucking hell what was that
anyways point is
i prefer simplifying first then take log
if you prefer first log then simplify
so be it, it works both ways
if i said one way is easier than the other
then im sorry
It is fine, because I have been told the exactly same thing when dealing with log questions in the past
also one reason i like simplify first then log: you might make some unneeded mistakes with the log, example you might add or multiply a 10 outside the log because you thought log(100) = 10 and you need to seperate that
but if you're careful, then go ahead and do what you like
not exactly which one is more efficient, its which one is less likely to make mistakes
unless you think that less mistakes = more efficient then it doesnt matter
Yes, as arguably most people are more familiar with non-log operations
That might be a reason to do this tho, to justify the move
To avoid mistakes, as you stated
but again if you want to just take log(10000/22500), so be it, but if you want to simplify that make sure anything that happens inside the log stays inside
I see
I will close the channel now
As my question is solved already
Thank you for the discussion

What have you tried so far?
proof by contradiction
so basically
assume that there exists a positive integer k such that:
k is not a divisor of (k - 1)!,
k is not a perfect square, and
k is not a prime number
but i got stuck after
Hmm, contradiction is a solid first thing to try but I'm not sure if it's the best approach here
tru
Well you have 3 cases, k is prime, k is a perfect square, and k | (k-1)!
Yea
But in another way, you could say that if k is not prime and k is not a perfect square, then k must divide (k-1)!
induction could also be fun :p
😭
Hmm, idk divisibility proofs don't play nice with induction
yeah kinda tricky
But do you understand how saying that "k not being prime and not being a perfect square implies that k | (k-1)!" is essentially the same as the question above?
ah so you're saying to assume 2 are false and check the last is true, then you have 3 cases
Basically yeah
I'm sure that would work, that's a good way of looking at it
i think so, cause i can start by assuming $k$ is a positive integer that is not prime and not a perfect square. Then $k$ has at least two distinct prime factors.
then if i let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct prime factors of $k$. Since $k$ is not a perfect square, both $p$ and $q$ must appear in the prime factorization of $k$ with an odd power
if i consider the factorization of $(k - 1)!$:
[
(k - 1)! = 2^{a_1} \cdot 3^{a_2} \cdot 5^{a_3} \cdot \ldots \cdot p^{a_p} \cdot q^{a_q} \cdot \ldots
]
q1z
up until this point
the blueprint is sorta set
but id have to do this case assuming 2 are false
I think you've got the idea, think you're good to grind away at this for a bit?
trying to use the fact that k does not divide (k-1)! to prove 2 things seems awfully tricky
I bet there's a much faster way
Is this due tonight?
yea
maybe? assume none of the above hold and see what happens
but still would be very icky
the first condition is an issue
Hmmm, doaby do you think you can handle this?
I don't think I can give any more good advice without just giving the answer
I've got no clue, at this point I'm brainstorming with them lol
😭
Alright lemme think...
what if we use [
M = k \cdot (k - 1)! = 2^{b_1} \cdot 3^{b_2} \cdot 5^{b_3} \cdot \ldots \cdot p^{b_p} \cdot q^{b_q} \cdot \ldots \cdot (k - 1)!
]
q1z
seems fairly trivial actually for even k, maybe you can do something more if you know it's odd?
So a way to prove "A or B" is true is to provide a proof that one of them is always true, or that one being false implies the other is true
if ks odd
then k - 1
is
even
WAIT
oh
Elaborate on this
NO WAYA
Oh did you get it?
nah my eyes decieved me
lmao
false hope
lmao fair enough
Okay, but doaby can you be explicit for me?
Why is it trivial if k is even?
doabys cooking
for even k, it's trivial if k = 2 since 2 is prime. then if k is even and larger than 2, i'm pretty sure you can check k|(k-1)! is always true
use the first few even numbers, it def works
just gotta prove that
Show me how it works for the first few even numbers
q1z do you think you can guess why it's trivial if k is even and greater than 2?
ok so if $k$ is even and larger than $2$, it can be expressed as $k = 2m$ for some positive integer $m \geq 2$. but then if we consider $(k-1)!$:
[
(k-1)! = 1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot \ldots \cdot (2m-2) \cdot (2m-1)
]
Since $k = 2m$, the factors $2$ and $m$ would just be this no?
[
(k-1)! = 1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot \ldots \cdot (2m-2) \cdot (2m-1) = 2 \cdot m \cdot \text{{other terms}}
]
which would imply that $k \mid (k-1)!$ for even $k$ larger than $2$
statement basically holds for both odd and even $k$. If $k$ is odd, $k \mid (k-1)!$ due to the even factor in $(k-1)!$, and if $k$ is even and larger than $2$, $k \mid (k-1)!$.
q1z
there ya go
Fantastic!
we cooked
Now do you think you can extend this to any k that isn't prime or a perfect square?
YOU GUYS COOKED 🔥 🧑
now I can sleep lmao
..oh, forget about that
You are legitimately on the right track!
if k is odd, you get to throw away a prime factor of 2, which will almost def make things easier
Think about multiples of 3 larger than 9
Also it should've been even k greater than 4, that was my bad 😛
sorry where
well if its odd k = 2m+ 1
[
(k-1)! = 1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot \ldots \cdot (2m) \cdot (2m + 1)
]
q1z
Oh we were talking about even k greater than 2, but 4 doesn't divide 3!
So it has to be even k greater than 4
touche
But 4 is a perfect square so we're still good
yep
Since $k = 2m + 1$, the factor $2$ is present in the product:
[
(k-1)! = 1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot \ldots \cdot (2m) \cdot (2m + 1) = 2 \cdot \text{{other terms}}
]
q1z
q1z
I don't think that holds, since it would imply that a prime k divides (k-1)!
But this is legit on the right track
and that would be for the case
where we said
2 false, 1 true
I sleep now, gl!
any time :p
Yeah, we want to show that k is not prime, and k is not a perfect square implies that k | (k-1)!
Good night 🙂
You are legit super close!
noooo just finish it tmrw!!
ill try 🥲
I'm still down to help if you're up for it
i would but its getting rlly late 😭
Well in that case I'll tell you this
Your proof that an even k that is greater than 2 is 99% right, it just needs to be greater than 4 (again, sorry about that)
no worries
Because you said k = 2m, and 2 and m are parts of (k-1)!
I would say to try to extend that to 3, 4, and any other number
thanks
No prob 🙂
so for the other 2 cases
i shoudl aim to
like
show k is not prime, and k is not a
oh wait
Actually, the beauty of showing 2 being false implies that the 3rd is true means that you don't have to worry about showing anything else is true
Because it would mean that if the 3rd were false, the 1st or 2nd must be true
A => B is the same as ~B => ~A
actually i just thought, and if k is any odd number that isn't prime, k | (k-1)!
even squares have this property
9 doesn't divide 8!
9 | 8! since 8! has 3 and 6
Oh wait you're right lmao
yeah lol
But it still matters for 4

can someone briefly explain why tan(x) cycles every pi? im kinda tired and can't really think it through, thanks
Do you know the visualisation of tan?
yes
but that's a result of sinx/cosx
you mean the graph or
I mean no, in circles
unit circle?
Yes
By adding pi, you rotate the point by 180 degrees, which basically doesn't change anything
what does it look like when rotated by pi
From x,y it goes to -x, -y
Or, you can suppose signs of cos(x) and sin(x) changing
Try deriving tan(x) = tan(x+pi)
so -sinx/-cosx = tanx
Yes
Oh yes, and you missed division symbol
Yep
ah i see thanks
i didnt know tangent could actually be drawn haha

Good day, I assume that I can ask a question here.
I am learning about person's r and t-test.
The formula for the t-test is on the attached image.
My question is, what would happen if r equals to 1 or -1?
Solving it normally would lead to a math error. I have searched the internet for answers but I can't find any. In that case, can I assume that 1 or -1 to be +-0.9999999...?
thank you
if r = -1 or 1, the function is undefined
however, if you take the limit, it'll b smth else
hope that helps
wait hang on'
if r is 1 or -1 then surely the limit would just be inf or -inf, unless n = 2
yep
considering that r < -1 or r > 1 also doesn't really work, unless you're allowing complex numbers, it might just be that only -1 < r < 1 makes sense
so i cannot proceed to t-test if the value of the person's r has a perfect positive/negative linear relationship?

Hi
So I had an exam and they took the question paper back so I cant show the question
but it is
tan x = alpha tan3x
for what value of alpha will there be no real solution for x
I think
$\tan\left(x\right)=α\tan\left(3x\right)?$
B-eard
ye
do you know the formula for tan(3x) in terms of tan(x)?
wdym by in terms of tan x
I just know it like
that triple angle formula
3 tanx + tan^3x / 1 - 3tan^2x
write it out just to make sure
thats it
idk what that would mean
no
You're going to have a rough time of it if you don't know what you're aiming for
thats what I wrote bro
There's a plus in what you wrote.
punch in tan 90 on your calculator
Apple pi, you're not helping.
No
And you're confused yourself about the problem.
tan 90 is not infinity.. tan 90 is undefined
Apple pi, this is not necessary for the problem, at ALL.
$\tan\left(x\right)=α\left(\frac{3\tan\left(x\right)-\tan^{3}\left(x\right)}{1-3\tan^{2}x}\right)$
Idk where he saw 90
B-eard
now factor out a tan(x) from RHS
alpha = 2
and cancel
[ 3 - tan^2x ] * alpha = 1 - 3tan^2x
yep
it's a secondary way of solving, since you're given that the desire is a solution for a where there is no real solution for x, but.. you guys have fun
now can you solve for tan^2(x) in terms of alpha?

hello can somebody please help?
Suppose that the car license plate must be a sequence V1/V2/C3/C4/V5/V6, where each Vi represents any vowel (taken in A, E, I, O, U) and each Cj any digit . Given the hypothesis that if the license plate contains some letter "A" then it cannot contain any letter "U", how many different license plates are possible?
i got that the total possibilities are 62500 (5 x 5 x 10 x 10 x 5 x 5)
and we subtract the cases where if V1=A or V2=A or V5=A or V6=A then the other V's can't be "U"
so 4 x (10^2 x 4^3)
because if V1=A for example, then the possibilities for V2, V5 and V6 are not 4 anymore but 3.
so 62500 - 4 x 6400 = 36900
i dont have the solution so i dont know if this is right, can somebody check please?
wouldnt it be "not 5 anymore but 4"?
yea sorry
anyway i solved it another way
also it seems like this might slightly over count
since this would count AA11OO twice for example
we consider the cases where V1 = A or V2=A or V5=A or V6=A, then the cases where V1 and V2=A, V1 and V5=A, etc... then the cases where V1, V2, V5 = A, etc... and finally the cases where all V's= A
we still consider 62500?
yeah
62500 - 4 x (4^3 x 10^2) - 6 x (10^2 x 4^2) - 4 * (10^2 x 4) - 10^2 ?
4 x 4^3 x 10^2 is the cases where only 1 V = A
should it be 4^3?
where?
in the second term
but the point im making applies to the 4^2 in the third term and the 4 in the fourth
ah wait
no this is right
yeah youre done gj
Sorry for the horrible handwriting, just to give you an idea
So this?
should be yeah
Okay thank you very much!!
wait
you applied pie wrong
should be alternating + and -
because the first term is the number of cases with at least one A
so the second is the number with at least 2 etc
Oh yea im dumb
if you wanted to do it with only - it should be 3^3,3^2,etc
because then it would be the cases with exactly 1 A, exactly 2 As, etc
If this is the formula
A U B U C U D in our case
Then what is 62500?
We shouldnt consider 62500
yeah after further consideration PIE isnt the fastest way to do this
because all of the sets are subsets of each other
this would be faster
Uh i don't get it sorry
well ok so if we have exactly one A
then there are 4 ways to place it and the rest must be E,I,O
so 4*(10^2)*(3^3)
and you can generalize
Oh okay because if we have exactly one A, the other V's can't be A nor U
right
62500 - 4 x (3^3 x 10^2) - 6 x (10^2 x 3^2) - 4 * (10^2 x 3) - 10^2
Seems right
Sorry to bother you, if we wanted to solve it using inclusion/exclusion, how would we do it?
Alternating +/-

Hello, I need help with conditional probability
there are 3 boxes: A, B, C. in box A there are 6 white balls and 2 black balls. There are 5 white balls in box B. In box C there is 1 white and 1 black. A ball is drawn from a randomly selected box and it turns out to be white. Then another ball was drawn from the same box. What is the probability that a white ball was drawn in the second draw?

idk
this seems like a situation you'd use the formula for total probability
in this case, something like
$P(W) = P(A) P(W | A) + P(B) P(W | B) + P(C) P(W | C)$
doaby
or if you don't like formulas, a probability tree is a very good idea

how do I know which one I should do -(x-3) or +(x-3) for the absolute value
for question e
when x approaches -2 from either side it's the same answer? I'm confused
For x < 3 do -(x-3)
if both sides give the same answer then the limit exists
if its not the same number then there is no real limit
< 3 and it became a heart
so it's -(x-3) when it's approaching -2 from either side
right
Yes
yes ik
ok ty
It would change a bit if you were finding the limit at x = 3

in an additive group $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$, if we get a generator a, then (n-a) is also a generator.
similarly if I get a primitive root of U(p), can i find the other primitive root?

Sanity check:
The Fréchet derivative is defined for normed spaces $(V , | \cdot |{V} ) \also ( W , | \cdot |{W} ) \also \mathcal{U} \subseteq V \ open \ subset$ as:
[ \lim_{| h |{V} \to 0} \frac{| f(u + h) - f(u) - Jh |{W}}{| h |_{V}} = 0 ]
Now choosing Rn and Rm as normed spaces and changing h = x - a we have the limit as
[ \lim_{x \to a} \frac{| f(x) - f(a) - Jx - Ja |}{| x -a |} = 0 ]
And J is the jacobian

I'm stuck on some math homework because I don't understand how I'm supposed to use one variable to get another one
The question is "deduce the roots of the function P, written in algebraic form"
I have the figured out the expression in the second picture, but I don't know how I'm supposed to work with both variables, and I don't see how switching back to z from u would help
so what happened was
we know that 0 is not a root of P
so P(z) = 0 is equivalent to P(z)/z^2 = 0
so it means we have to solve u^2 + 2u - 3 = 0
no
Oh
u = z + 1/z
no need to isolate z
solve for u first
that's the reason why we consider u in the first place

in the jacobian matrix, how do i know which variable to partial differentiate first ??
It doesn't really matter, changing the rows is only going to change the determinant by a negative sign and you are taking the absolute value anyway

how do i find the max of $y=3-x^{1/2}-2x^{-1/2}$
yossi0
derivate
i have made ${dy/dx} = -1/2x^{-1/2}+x^{-3/2}$
yossi0
i made that = 0 how do i solve
square both sides
Take x to the - 1 /2 as a common factor first
multiply through by x^(-3/2)
U mean multiply through by x^(3/2)
yes

Can you explain how to get the answer? My teacher didnt explain it in a way I could understand
do you know sohcahtoa
help
opposite to the angle, adjacent to the angle or hypotenuse
sohcahtoa
HAHAHHA
go away
is it opp
hypotenuse
siin
wait why do u put 9 before sin
multiplies
y
Yeah
well
idk why its that tho or how to get there
i've figured sin out
sin?
but why is ok
yeah, what is it
hUH
JH
GH
ya
9
well yes
at the end
but if u replace GH with 9
itd become
sin 35 = JH/9
correct?
ya
wait what
$Sin (35) = \frac{JH}{9}$
sin
its right infront of u
wait but how come its written like this : 9 sin (35)
okay
well
LOOK AT IT
ONCE AGAIN
💀💀
WHY IS IT WRITTEN IN THAT ORDER😭
sin
ya
9
ya
so that'd give us
this?
ok
I get how u get everything
But the question was "what expression can you use to find JH?" I just dont get how u make a proper expression, the answer was 9 sin (35) which was diff from the one u put up
okay
what is an expression?
a math statement
correct!
yay!
so basically
an expression is used
to find the value of something
for eg
2x^2 can be used to find the value of x if its equal to 0
or 2x^2+4x+8 can be used to find the value of x if its equal to -29302
doesn't matter
now, sin cos and tan
they are ratios
you're aware of that, correct?
yea
alright, good
you're doing great so far
now, if you know
angle and the value of a side are codependent on each other
thats why 90 degree angles are perpendicular to each other
and 180 degree angles are straight lines
sounds clear so far?
yes
perfect
now, what sin cos and tan basically have
are fixed ratios
sin will never be adjacent/opposite
it'd always be opp/hyp
similarly to cos and tan with their ratios
sin 35 helps us to find its value, by considering the ratio of two sides
ie. opposite and hypotenuse
okay?
ya
if the angle grows in measure
the ratio will grow bigger, until it approaches a certain value, ie. 1
sin 40 > sin 35
and sin 90 > sin 40 > sin 35
sounds good so far?
yea
okay
so now you know that
sin 35 equals to the ratio of opposite side and hypotenuse
okay that makes more sense
$sin 35 = \frac{Opp}{Hyp}$
sin
lets replace opp and hyp together, okay?
ok
JH
GH
sin
correct?
ya
9 sin (35)
why 9?
what abt JH
thats an expression for JH
that will be used
to find the value of JH
Cuz GH is hyp and 9 was given for GH
correct
got it?
ya
