tidal grove
#

Hey

topaz sinewBOT
tidal grove
#

I get minimal distance as 19 using prims method

#

But prof got 21 so unsure

#

He did it using linear programing, have i made an error?

floral dew
#

Hey, let me try to help you

#

Could it be that your professor searched for a cycle instead of a path?

#

I believe the TSP is often used in both of these ways, so either where the salesman has to visit each city once and that's it, or that the salesman has to visit each city once and end at the city they started at

#

It could maybe be that the confusion arose due to that

topaz sinewBOT
#

@tidal grove Has your question been resolved?

tidal grove
#

Hmm @floral dew im not sure

#

If my application of Prims algorithm is correct

#

Then i dont mind having a different answer

#

Do you think you can verify this for me

#

Lets say if the sales man had to go back to A im not sure that would be represented by a distance of 2 anyways

floral dew
#

I am not entitely sure how you came to your solution, I did have a go at it myself and found a possible path E-A-B-C-D of length 14

tidal grove
#

Hmm

#

Why method is

#

To start at A

#

Cross row out

#

Number colum A as 1

#

Find smallest number in row

#

And circle that in the A column

#

Then see which row Letter than number corresponds to

#

And then my next column

#

Write 2

#

Above it

#

Then cross out that row

#

Find smallest in that row

#

And circle in the column i numbered 2

#

And repeat

floral dew
#

I see

tidal grove
#

Whilst making sure i never go back to a row

floral dew
#

While I unfortunately can't tell you exactly why, I'm pretty certain that method does run into some problems. I don't think you made a mistake using that method

tidal grove
#

Its oversimplified

#

Yes i understand

floral dew
#

Is there anything else I could help you with now?

tidal grove
#

You got any tips for optimisation

#

Linear programming?

floral dew
#

For linear programs I'd generally advice anyone to have a look at a couple of these programs and really make sure you understand what is happening and what kinds of techniques are being used. You will quickly start recognizing those same techniques in all kinds of linear programs.

tidal grove
#

Ahhh cool

#

Yeah i agree with this

#

Mathworks have a quite a few examples

#

Quite scary at a first glance

floral dew
#

Haha yeah I can imagine

#

Btw, to get back to your original question. Your professor solved the problem for the cycle variant. I just came to the same solution of 21.

tidal grove
#

Ahh can u explain how you did this ?

#

Did u do it by hand or program?

floral dew
#

For this specific instance I did it by hand, mostly by trial and error.

#

I could tell you my reasoning, but it's not a great methodology by any means

tidal grove
#

No i get u

#

Brute force methods do work but are tedious

#

Maybe hearing it i can know how to make it better

floral dew
#

Sure, in this case I just started with some cycle that looked kinds short (A-B-C-D-E-A)

tidal grove
#

Oh okayyy

floral dew
#

then DE has weight 10, which is quite high and I tried to somehow get rid of it, in this case by picking BD and CE instead of CD and DE

#

you then have (A-B-D-C-E-A) which coincidentally got me to 21

#

But in general (especially as the size of the graph increases) these problems are very hard to solve by hand. That's for a great part what motivated the field of Discrete Mathematics & Optimization.

tidal grove
#

Oh so this is discrete maths

#

Interesting

floral dew
#

I hope I have been able to answer your question more or less :D

tidal grove
#

You have been great

#

Thanks a bunch

floral dew
#

No worries!

slender sonnet
#

In a ABCD ractangle there is a AC diagnal is ABC angles bisector and it corosses the diagnal in point M the distance from M point to BC is 10 and to AD is 4 i need to find the AC diagnal

slender sonnet
#

Since its the bisector the right trialgles sides would both be 10 and the hyp is sqrt200 i have found that so far

frank narwhal
#

How am I supposed to solve problems like this?

frank narwhal
#

i know sin^2x + cos^2x = 1 but im not sure why or how to get there

dense cairn
#

other ones are just basic, you can turn the tan^2 x into sin^2x/cos^2x

#

and then go from there

torpid sparrow
#

Use this to prove it

frank narwhal
#

i dont really see how i can use that to solve it

torpid sparrow
#

Do sin^2x+cos^2x using that

frank narwhal
#

well yah i just dont know what to do with that information

frank narwhal
#

or no nvm

torpid sparrow
#

$\cos^2(\alpha) + \sin^2(\alpha)
= \left(\frac{a}{h}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{b}{h}\right)^2
= \frac{a^2}{h^2} + \frac{b^2}{h^2}
= \frac{1}{h^2}(a^2 + b^2)$

thorny flameBOT
#

Samuel

torpid sparrow
#

Now, how much is a^2+b^2?

#

$a^2 + b^2 = h^2$

thorny flameBOT
#

Samuel

torpid sparrow
#

$\frac{h^2}{h^2}
= 1$

thorny flameBOT
#

Samuel

frank narwhal
#

oh just adding them i assume

torpid sparrow
#

you take 1/h^2 common factor

frank narwhal
#

ohh okay

#

tyty that helped a lot

slim sparrow
#

how do I do the derivative of tan^-1 (x+1)

topaz sinewBOT
slim sparrow
#

its chain rule right?

#

1/((x+1) + 1) * 1/(2sqrt(x+1))

void crow
#

you sure its chain rule?

#

$tan^-1(x+1)$

thorny flameBOT
void crow
#

which is basically

#

$cot(x+1)$

thorny flameBOT
void crow
#

wait ooh

#

this is interesting

slim sparrow
#

So i use the quotient

#

?

#

1/tan(x+1)

void crow
#

whats the derivative of $cotf(x)$

thorny flameBOT
gleaming reef
#

so we are talking about arctan(x)

void crow
#

you can take arctan or cot

#

and essentially yes, its chain rule

#

that was my mistake, i thought i saw tan x 😭

slim sparrow
#
  • cosec^2 (f(x))?
#

1/sin^2 f(x)

#

why cant it be 1/(x+1)^2 + 1

void crow
#

look again

void crow
slim sparrow
#

isnt tan^-1 (x) equivalent to 1/(x^2'+1)

void crow
#

how did you get that

#

:0

slim sparrow
#

cant we do tan^-1(u) where u = x+1

#

so its 1/((x+1)^2 + 1)

void crow
#

derivative

#

yes

#

it is

void crow
slim sparrow
#

how would I do this derivative with tan^-1(sqrt(x+1))

#

sqrt(x) = square root of x

void crow
#

hmm

slim sparrow
#

i replace square root of x+1 with u right?

void crow
#

fundamentally, yes

slim sparrow
#

arctan(u)

void crow
#

,w derive tan^-1(sqrt(x+1))

slim sparrow
#

I need to get the derivative of tangent u

#

which is sec^2(u)

#

so

#

because

#

its 1/sec^2(u)

#

and sec = 1/cos

#

does it become cos^2(u)

#

because its technically 1/(1/cos^2(u))

#

so then

void crow
#

im not quite sure 😭

#

this is a new subject for me too LMAOA

slim sparrow
#

same

#

Well, not really new, I learnt it a week ago and fell off cause i didnt revise it at all

slim sparrow
slim sparrow
#

derivative of tan^-1 u is just 1/u^2 + 1

#

what the hell was I thinking

#

1/x+2

#

one thing thats confusing me is how someone online got this

#

from deriving this:

#

i found a trick to do integration by parts easily

#

But the problem is in 4:28

#

where he gets 1/(x+2) MULTIPLIED BY 1/2(sqrt(x+1))

#

it seemed simple enough until i saw this

#

Nevermind, im such an idiot :.(

#

I forgot what this is all based on

#

integration by parts

#

(x+z) X (1/(x+2)) X du

#

i replaced X with * because * putting stuff inbetween asterisk puts them in italics form*

neon iron
#

find the equation of the parabola whose latus-rectus is 4 units and axis is the line 3x+4y-4=0 and the tangent at the vertex is the line 4x-3y+7=0

neon iron
#

how do i do this

#

i was think of choosing a arbitary point on the parabola and write the expressions for perpendicular distances of (x,y) on both the lines

#

but i am stuck after that

ok so i have a maths problem based on trig applications for ib sl analysis

tepid gazelle
#

it's for this one teacher who has a history of being harder than he needs to be

#

this problem was given to me by a sr to prepare for one of his tests

#

this is not a calculus question, just to confirm that

#

this is a purely trigonometric problem

What is a rational expression

topaz sinewBOT
twin pollen

Does this have a rational expressy

#

Expression

fallow igloo
topaz sinewBOT
# twin pollen Does this have a rational expressy
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
twin pollen
#

Its just a question

#

In case it comes up on the test

#

Its a yes or no question

#

Cause it says rational expression have polynomial in numerator and denominator

#

I dont see it

#

So is it no?

#

?

abstract wadi
#

Expressions don't have equality.

#

Equations have equality.

twin pollen
#

But does that pic have expressions

#

I thought it had to have polynomial in denominator and numberator someone

#

Somewhere

abstract wadi
twin pollen
#

Yes

abstract wadi
#

Then it's an equation.

twin pollen
#

But my teacher said a rational equation is one that has a rational expression

abstract wadi
#

This is a rational equation, yes.

twin pollen
#

Where is the rational expression

abstract wadi
twin pollen
#

So there is no expresy

#

Expression

#

What does this mean then

abstract wadi
#

On either side of the equality what you have is an expression.

twin pollen
#

What is a rational expression can u define it?

abstract wadi
#

A rational expression has rational terms.

twin pollen
#

What are rational terms

abstract wadi
#

By rational terms I mean numerator and denominators are polynomials.

#

Terms are usually separated by +- operations.

#

So for example,

#

3x + 5

#

Is an expression.

#

3x + 5 = 2x^2 - 3 is an equation

twin pollen
#

Is it a rational expression?

abstract wadi
#

Yes it is a rational expression.

twin pollen
#

How

abstract wadi
#

3x+5 that is.

twin pollen
#

How

abstract wadi
#

3x+5 is the same as (3x+5)/1

#

Both the numerator and denominator are polynomials.

twin pollen
#

1 is a polynomial?

abstract wadi
#

Sure.

twin pollen
#

I thought polynomials have variable

abstract wadi
#

A polynomial needs to have whole number powers of the variable.

#

1 = x^0

twin pollen
#

Is 5 a polynomial?

abstract wadi
#

Sure.

twin pollen
#

How

abstract wadi
#

5x^0

twin pollen
#

O rlly so everything is a polynomial

abstract wadi
#

Not really, polynomials are very specific.

twin pollen
#

What is not a polynomial

thorny flameBOT
#

! What the hell am I doing here?

#

! What the hell am I doing here?

twin pollen
#

Wait why

#

Both these not

abstract wadi
#

What's the exponent of x here?

twin pollen
#

1

abstract wadi
#

No.

abstract wadi
abstract wadi
twin pollen
#

Ooo ya

#

But how is that not a polynomial

abstract wadi
#

Because polynomials have whole number exponents of the variable.

#

Neither of these numbers are whole numbers. (-1 or 1/2)

twin pollen
#

How do I classify a polynomial then

#

I didnt learn this

abstract wadi
#

A polynomial is an algebraic expression with variables and coefficients, such that the exponent of the variable is only whole numbers throughout.

#

If you haven't studied this, you can refer this definition and use this to solve problems.

#

If there's a lot more you don't know, such as an expression or equality or terms or coefficients, then revise basic algebraic terminology. I'm sure you have something if not everything in your textbook.

OHHHH

#

SHIT

#

x = 6sintheta

exotic saddle
#

i dont know what it means

ruby mural
#

For example in the first one, try isolating y

#

On one side

exotic saddle
#

so ill isolate the y in 4x - 2y = 10?

ruby mural
#

Yeah

exotic saddle
#

alr wait

#

y = -2x + 5

#

@ruby mural

ruby mural
#

That matches with one of the options

#

Also no wait

exotic saddle
#

Yeah, a. now what?

ruby mural
exotic saddle
#

wdym?

ruby mural
#

I mean that it should be y=2x-5

exotic saddle
#

oh yeah mb

#

so after this, what do i do?

ruby mural
#

Tick the correct option and move on?

exotic saddle
#

what does in terms of x mean tho

ruby mural
#

They want you to find a way in which you can relate y with x in some way

exotic saddle
#

what 😭

ruby mural
#

I mean

#

Uh

#

Ig all they wanted you to do was isolate y on one side

#

And write it in terms of x

exotic saddle
#

ahh alright tyy

I belive I don't have good base in fraction but with x or any variable it make more confusing

#

you want to show that u_n = c*u_n-1 for some contant c

#

you can do it by altering the equation u_n=p_n-0.75

#

by substitute p_n = 0.6p_n-1 + 0.3

shadow nymph
#

Wait

#

u can do that (never learned from) ?

#

I thought the only way to show if a sequence is geometrical is
Un+1/Un = Number

flat kindle
#

umm

shadow nymph
#

it work with Un/Un-1 ?

flat kindle
#

Un/Un-1 = number is the same as Un = Un-1 * number

shadow nymph
#

oooh

#

i'm still confused

flat kindle
shadow nymph
flat kindle
#

hmm

shadow nymph
#

how u justify the need of u_n-1 ?

flat kindle
#

p_n+1 also works

#

ok let's use p_n+1

#

what do you get

shadow nymph
shadow nymph
shadow nymph
flat kindle
#

ok

#

now calculate u_n+1/u_n

shadow nymph
#

alr

shadow nymph
#

Hm I'm blocked here

flat kindle
#

you can factor and cancel

shadow nymph
#

factor by pn ?

flat kindle
#

no

shadow nymph
#

hmmm

flat kindle
#

it's decimal so it's hard to see

shadow nymph
#

should I convert these decimal to fraction ?

flat kindle
#

yeah try doing that

shadow nymph
#

i suck or wut ? I don't see it ;-;

#

I used 10 because it's the easiest to convert to

flat kindle
#

um

shadow nymph
#

the goal is to find (pn-0.75)(something) = 0.6pn + 0.3

#

right ?

flat kindle
#

yes

#

actually you just need to factor 0.6

shadow nymph
#

let me try

#

I feel like I'm going nowhere

shadow nymph
shadow nymph
#

Maybe it's what I miss rn

flat kindle
#

wait

#

you copied

#

wrong

flat kindle
shadow nymph
shadow nymph
#

OH yeah !

flat kindle
#

ya

shadow nymph
#

my bad

#

always got issue with this

#

being too fast each time

#

thanks u

shadow nymph
flat kindle
#

yes

#

you should be able to cancel pn out

shadow nymph
#

Hm factor again ?

flat kindle
#

no

#

you only need to factor the 0.6 on numerator

shadow nymph
#

hmmmmm ?

#

okay ?

#

OH

#

sigh I hate this factor/fraction exercices

flat kindle
#

yay finally

shadow nymph
#

Alr Today I learned that facotring the numerator only can help killing this factor bar

shadow nymph
flat kindle
#

no problem

shadow nymph
#

I never though it was that easy

#

In my exam it was like this

#

Man I'm going to kill my phone somehow

#

Anyway just heavy calculation

#

The problem is that I didn't find the factor and got something like
(Un²+2un+number)/(same thing but proportional) = constant

#

I just jumped into the conclusion since I got no time ,-,

Henlo c: I could use some help with this task

An employee works in a team with 3 other colleagues on the realization of a customer order. The price the customer pays to the company for the successful completion of the order is 1.5 million euros. The management has promised the team a reward for the successful execution. This reward corresponds to 10% of the profit generated by the order. The reward is distributed equally among the team members.

The employee can influence the order's profit by making an effort to find cost-effective solutions for its realization. The relationship between his effort 𝑒 (𝑒 = 𝑠), the efforts of his colleagues 𝑘𝑖, and the costs of order implementation 𝐶𝑈 is given by: (see pic1)
The personal costs of effort 𝐶(𝑠) for the employee and his colleagues are given by: (see second pic)
a) What level of effort will the employee choose? Assume that he wants to maximize his own benefit.

b) How much will the reward for the employee be if his team members choose the same effort level as him?

I do have the results but I dont understand how to get there.
So for a I get this equation (see pic3) but how do I get this? (see pic 4)

tawny prairie
#

oh and then for task b all I have to do is put the 100 in s so that I have this: (see pic) their answer to that is 5262 but I dont know how if I type it into my calculator something eles comes up (plus i dont know what to do with the weird E symble)

yo

differentiate with respect to s

tawny prairie
#

does that mean that I am using the chain rule? (i'm sorry english isnt my first language)

tawny prairie
#

so it means that everything that hasn't an s just gets deleted but the 40000*1/10000 becomes that way cuz thats what you have to do when you deriviate from ln ? but shouldnt the 10000ki be deleted too?

tawny prairie
#

or is this correct so far?

#

A friend sent me this over but its also confusing me too cuz idk what the d/dx is

tawny prairie
#

and here for task b I cannot come to the result. if I type it into the website I get this

#

in the whatapp group all they told me to is to put it into my calculator, I didnt get more help from them

neon iron
#

Hello I’m having a problem with a math question on Pearson

neon iron
#

So 6x is the circumference according to this and with the circumference I can get the radius

#

Because circumference = 2(pi)(r)

#

If I plug in 6x the radius should be 6x/2pi

#

And from there I should be able to plug it in the area

#

A = pi r^2

#

So pi (6x/2pi)^2 should be (36x2/4pi^2) x pi

cinder hawk
#

yes

neon iron
#

But Pearson insists that the answer that the answer is 9x^2/pi

cinder hawk
#

same thing

neon iron
#

What about the pi that was outside the parentheses

cinder hawk
#

it cancels with one (!!!) of the pis in the denominator

neon iron
#

Oh

#

How come

cinder hawk
#

$\frac{\pi}{{\pi}^2}=\frac{1}{\pi}$

thorny flameBOT
#

baro | awake

neon iron
#

Ok this makes sense but there is no pi in the numerator

cinder hawk
#

yes there is lol

neon iron
cinder hawk
#

the pi you multiply is in the numerator

neon iron
#

Since I already squared the whole thing and it became pi^2

cinder hawk
#

$\pi \cdot \frac{9x^2}{\pi^2} = \frac{9\pi x^2}{\pi^2}$

neon iron
thorny flameBOT
#

baro | awake

cinder hawk
#

$\pi = \frac{\pi}{1}$

thorny flameBOT
#

baro | awake

cinder hawk
#

if you think of every term seperate that might help

#

$\pi \cdot \frac{9x^2}{\pi^2} = \pi \cdot \frac{1}{\pi} \cdot \frac{1}{\pi} \cdot 9 \cdot x \cdot x$

thorny flameBOT
#

baro | awake

cinder hawk
#

do you see how the pi cancels now?

neon iron
#

Hmmm

#

Oh

#

Ok

#

Ok yeah that makes sense

#

I don’t know why I thought that I multiplied both the numerators and the denominators by pi

gilded totem
# neon iron Oh

I'll just comment now so I can take credit in the server even tho I was late

cinder hawk
neon iron
#

So the denominator is the same and only the numerator changes

#

And then they cancel out and only one pi is left in the denominator

cinder hawk
#

oui

neon iron
#

Thank you so much

#

I feel so stupid

cinder hawk
#

don't feel stupid!

#

correcting mistakes => learning!!

#

and now you probably have a deeper understanding of fraction multiplication. so yay!

Yay indeed

Square numbers are whole numbers that could be the area of a square. THe series begins: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, .... Write an equation to find the n^th square number

Its a formula

#

wait wait

#

isnt it just n^2

yes it is lol I just don't understand how to get n^2

outer carbon

oh u gotta prove it

#

that its n^2

shell bough
#

ya

keen venture

"Square numbers are whole numbers that could be the area of a square"
This seems wrong

keen venture
#

Maybe a square with integer sides

outer carbon
#

how does it seem wrong

keen venture
#

By that definition, 1.44 is a square number

grim sable
#

The def shoulda been more specific

keen venture
#

But, okay, let's say it means "a square with integer sides".
Call that integer n.
What's the area of the square?

#

n^2

outer carbon
#

I dont know if theres a proof

#

but I noticed their differnces are in ap

just that

twin pollen

👋

topaz sinewBOT
twin pollen
#

How do I find acceleration?

#

Im doing 2b

#

Do i need acceleration?

clever verge
#

Show me your attempt at modeling the kinetics

bitter hemlock
#

are you familiar with Hooke's law? (the equation that relates force applied to a spring to how much it stretches)

#

it's straightforward if you know to use the equation

twin pollen
#

Do i need acceleration

#

For 2b

bitter hemlock
#

do you know F = -kx ?

twin pollen
#

No

bitter hemlock
#

did you have any kind of reading \ lecture for this material? that must definitely be part of your material if you are doing this problem

twin pollen
#

We learned F= k•x

#

x is change

#

Like displacement

#

Or stretched length

#

Oops

bitter hemlock
#

yes that's it, - sign is kind of arbitrary i guess, im a bit rusty on this but probably just depends how you decide to set up the axes

twin pollen
#

Ic ok

bitter hemlock
#

so x is what you want for the answer is b and what is the force applied to the spring?

twin pollen
#

So Fg?

bitter hemlock
#

you already solved for F in part a)

#

its 270N

twin pollen
#

Wdym force applied to string

bitter hemlock
#

spring

twin pollen
#

How do I find that

bitter hemlock
#

...?

twin pollen
#

O wait

#

I think my fbd is wrong

#

How would U draw it out

#

I screwed up

#

Once i get fbd i shoudl be ok

#

Hopefully

#

Free body diagram is fbd btw

#

?

bitter hemlock
#

so youre lowering a rover from your spaceship, hanging by a spring

#

😛

twin pollen
#

So spring force up

#

Right

bitter hemlock
#

yeah youve got gravity pulling down, i guess spring force pulling up and they even out

twin pollen
#

But its lowering

bitter hemlock
#

so the spring force is the same as gravity but in the opposite direction

twin pollen
#

But its lowering

bitter hemlock
#

i think you're supposed to think of this as a snapshot in time, think of the lowering as very slow

#

we aren't given the rate or anything related to that its being lowered

twin pollen
#

Ooo yea so its hanging

#

Ig

bitter hemlock
#

yeah pretty much think of it that way

#

so basically just stick the force and the spring constant in that equation and solve for x, no rocket science

twin pollen
#

Got it

#

Yes

#

Thx

bitter hemlock
#

270N = 100.0 N/m x
x = 270/100 m = 2.7m thats literally all there is to it

#

thats a very stretchy spring, sheesh

#

3 m

Yes

topaz sinewBOT
#
What step are you on?

2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.

6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
flint quarry
#

I don’t know where to begin

flat kindle
#

First P = P1 + P2

flint quarry
#

Hm well

flat kindle
#

P1 Is easy to find so try to find P2

flint quarry
#

Wait how do i find p1

#

P1x=8cos(120)

#

P1y=8sin(120)

#

?

flat kindle
#

Yes

flint quarry
#

Okay so that’s p1 right

#

<p1x,p1y>

flat kindle
#

Ya

flint quarry
#

Ok so p2 i would need to find theta first or no

#

Would i just do the inverse?

#

P2x=4cos(theta)

flat kindle
#

P2 is parallel to the y axis

flint quarry
#

What does that mean

flat kindle
#

It means x component = 0

flint quarry
#

Ah so by default x=0

flat kindle
flint quarry
#

Oh since its parallel its a right triangle

#

Wouldn’t theta be 45

flat kindle
#

No

flint quarry
#

Hm

#

Why is it 90

flat kindle
#

It's hard to explain qithout drawing :/

flint quarry
#

😦

#

I wanna understand why its 90

topaz sinewBOT
#

@flint quarry Has your question been resolved?

flint quarry
#

So when x component is 0 theta is 90?

#

@flat kindle

flat kindle
#

Yeah

#

I got some paper here
lemme draw

flint quarry
#

Ok i see

#

Hm ok so

#

P2x=4cos(90)
P2y=4sin(90)

flat kindle
#

Typo

flint quarry
#

I see

#

Better?

flat kindle
#

Yes

flint quarry
#

So what would be the next step after getting p1 and p2 cordinates

flat kindle
#

Add them to get P

flint quarry
#

Ok let me solve em

#

P1x=-4
P1y=4sqrt3

P2x=0
P2y=4

#

P=<-4,4+sqrt3>

flat kindle
#

-4 for x component

flint quarry
#

Oh correct typo

#

Since 2nd quadrant

#

Ok

#

Now that would conclude part a correct?

#

P=<-4i,4+sqrt3j>

flat kindle
#

You either write it as a vector like <-4,4+sqrt(3)>

#

Or use i,j and write -4i+(4+sqrt(3))j

flint quarry
#

Ok ok

flat kindle
#

You can't mix them

flint quarry
#

Thanks for that

#

I would write it in i,j since it asked for that

#

Now that’s part a right?

#

For part b would just be the magnitude of P

flat kindle
#

You can think of magnitude as length

flint quarry
#

Hm ok yes

#

Length of P leg basically

#

So

#

Sqrt(px)^2+(py)^2

flat kindle
#

Correct

flint quarry
#

Ok i got 8

#

Does it that make sense? Cause length of p1 is 8

#

Sqrt(4)^2+(4sqrt3)^2

#

Gives me 8

#

@flat kindle

flat kindle
#

No

#

Py is 4sqrt(3)+4

flint quarry
#

Hm

#

Where did the +4

#

Come from

#

Ohhh i see

flint quarry
#

-4i,+4sqrt(3)+4j

#

I got 11.637

#

For P’s magnitude

flat kindle
#

Correct

flint quarry
#

Yey ok

#

So now for P’s direction

#

Would i do the arctan of P?

flat kindle
#

Yep

flint quarry
#

So arctan(py/px)

#

And that’s my direction?

#

If so i got 80.1

#

Is that correct

#

@flat kindle

flat kindle
#

I think so

flint quarry
#

Tan^-1(4/4sqrt(3)+4)

#

Right?

#

If that’s right then in polar form it would be

P=11.637 angle 80.1

#

Thanks btw for your help

#

@flat kindle i just need to know this last bit and I’m done pls thank you

flat kindle
#

Correct

flint quarry
#

Ok so I’m fully correct thank you!

I don’t know what to do with this term

mild hearth

what's the expression for 'the standard brownian motion' again

eternal viper
mild hearth
granite shard
#

hmm, that's not the same, but perhaps you could do B_{t_1}^2 (B_{t_2} - B_{t_1} - (B_{t_1} - B_{t_3}) + 2B_{t_1})?

mild hearth
#

wait wrong way round

granite shard
#

then 2B_{t_1}^3 will have 0 expected value

mild hearth
#

can you do b_2 + b_3 = (b_2 - b_1) + (b_1 - b_3) + 2b_3

#

yeah

#

or the other other way round

#

can you do b_2 + b_3 = (b_2 - b_1) + (b_3 - b_1) + 2b_1

#

ok ok ok

#

i am good at algebra

hi. this is a question that I completed months ago, regarding the quotient rule, and due to my lack of written workings, I can't work out how I got from 1. to 2. It's highly likely that I'm just a wee bit brain dead as I've had a long day, but help is appreciated!

wicked patrol
#

i need help, me and my dad are confused

topaz sinewBOT
candid cradle
#

can you be more specific about where you're confused

wicked patrol
#

so, first, we inversed the first function

#

and we got sqrt(x)/5

#

then pluged in -7 which got us $i(sqrt7)/5$

thorny flameBOT
#

its_henrythelemon

wicked patrol
#

but that was wrong

#

so then, we tried inversing -7 to get -1/7

#

so then we pluged that into the second function, which got us 7/146 which was also wrong

#

these were all my tries

candid cradle
#

Does $5x^2=-7$ for any $x\leq -3$?

thorny flameBOT
#

big boy

wicked patrol
#

no

candid cradle
#

Right. This is a piecewise function, and it has an inverse so you know it's injective. The first step is to determine the value of x in the domain of f such that g(x) is -7

wicked patrol
#

oh, ok

#

can you explain this to me like your talking to a golden retreiver because i still dont really get it

candid cradle
#

No problem, maybe I wasn't clear.
Basically g(x)=-7 for only 1 value of x. This value of x is $g^{-1}(-7)$. As you said, $5x^2$ is not -7 for any $x\leq -3$. So you know the value you're looking for is not in that branch of the function

#

You can also check that $21+x$ is not -7 for any x between -3 and 10

thorny flameBOT
#

big boy

candid cradle
#

So by process of elimination, the x you want must be more than 10

#

So if you solve $2-\sqrt{x}=-7$ for x, that gives you the inverse value

thorny flameBOT
#

big boy

candid cradle
#

Does that make sense?

thorny flameBOT
#

big boy

wicked patrol
#

oh, yes that make more sense

#

oh my god

#

ur so smart

#

thanks so much for helping @candid cradle

“If the line 3x - 4y = 0 is tangent in the first quadrant to the curve y = x^3 + k, then k is _____?”

neon iron
#

Not exactly sure where to start

#

do i just set the derivative of x^3 + k equal to 3x - 4y?

restive inlet
#

not quite

#

you set the derivative equal to the slope of the line 3x - 4y = 0

neon iron
#

so 3/4?

restive inlet
#

yes.

neon iron
#

alr so d/dx x^3 + k = 3/4

neon iron
fallow heart
#

By using the fact that "tangent" also means that the two curves intersect (at the value of x you found)

restive inlet
#

you are told that the line is tangent to the curve in Q1

fallow heart
neon iron
#

So x must be +1/2, and 3/4(1/2) = (1/2)^3 + k, and k = 1/4?

It's not saying those are equal. It's telling you to compute Px and then use the result to determine what P^-1 should be.
