I could write some more code to make the parse understand things like (a and b and c). I simply didn't because that's more effort
If you want to use my software, you need to input these "unnecessary parentheses"
Otherwise, go look for another program
These courses on logic begin with all the parentheses, because you need to understand exactly how these operators work (for example, on exactly two inputs)
Maybe later on you're allowed to omit these parentheses because you have the necessary understanding
That's the equivalent of me writing that additional piece of code to understand the new kinds of expressions where parentheses are absent
Or you still won't be allowed to do that, in which case I might call your course subpar but you have to live with it... and it's not as big a deal as you're making it out to be

recall the limit definition of the derivative
did you get tricked by the fact that the denominator is x - pi, not pi - x?
that could be why
so you need to multiply by -1 cause of this

Ok so I have to find the horizontal tangents but if f’(x)=0 equals to a root that’s not in the domain of f(x) then you don’t have a horizontal tangent there right?
For example the derivative of the function on x<-1 and x>1 is 2x-1 and the root is 1/2 but that’s not in the domain of f(x) for x<-1 and x>1
its ex 27

How do I find the implicit differentiation of y = sin(xy)?
Chain rule and product rule on the right side
Might help to substitute y for f(x)
ok thanks
After the chain rule and product rule I got dy/dx = (y+x*dy/dx)cos(xy). What do I do next?
@mental trench Has your question been resolved?
Do next for what?
You already did the implicit differentiation
To solve for dy/dx

so
i got 3.317 g
but
now i know ihave to plug it in m=mass substance Grams / amount substance Mol
they tell me use periodic table but like
do i look for an element with 3.317 mass?
but its in grams tho 😕
no if you want to look for an element you need molar mass
Convert the number of atoms into moles first
3g in the whole sample?
there's 21g in a cm^3
so do you think there's less than that in more than a m^3?
ok so density = mass/volume
so mass = ?
and then convert correctly
based on what they gave theres no mass
But i have to find it
i found it but erased it one second 😭
yeah you have to find it
i will redo and show it
you have density and volume. how do you find mass?
m=v.d
yes
sure, how many cm in a m
?
1 meter is 100 cm
???
.
yes
so how do you convert 1.550m^3 in cm^3?
1.550m^3 times 1000000cm^3/1m^3
yes
ok
so this is the mass of the substance?
this is the mass of the whole sample
oh
on the other hand, the sample contains 1.024 * 10^29 atoms of said substance
so how many moles of substance does that make?
so 1.024 * 10^29 divided by 6.02x10^23
yes
equal to 170,000 mol
yep
so the sample contains 33,170,000g of substance
which is also 170000 mols of substance
hm
what's the molar mass of the substance?
yes
M
is 195.23
Check periodic table
ok
yes it's the only one

What went wrong here
@sudden sorrel Has your question been resolved?
,w diff 5x(4-4x)^3
That’s not the answer btw anyway cuz you need to find the equation of the line at x=2
It’s a long ass question
<@&286206848099549185>
Uhhhh
Yo
@sudden sorrel
Differentiate, then plug 2 in again
Here
Uhhhh
I don’t know where your work is
I can do it myself when i get the chance tho
I pinged it
Ik but I don’t know your thought process
Yes please
Ok
Gimme a few mins
if this doesn’t answer your question, i am sorry ): but i must go to bed now
@sudden sorrel Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
There's a factor of (4x-1) too
I'll write out on paper
Wait a sec
@sudden sorrel
Wait what
You simplified the expression?
We were told not to simplify so we can factor
This is factored form
How do I know how to do this
We learned factoring but not at that level
How do you know when to simplify and when to factor
You see something common multiplied by the terms
So factor it out
I mean if you can see something is common in every term
Then just factor THAT thing out
Where did you see something common with (1-x)^3?
(1-x)^2 * (1-x)
Then (1-x)^2 is common
Factor it out
I’m so confused
But it’s 4x-4
So why not factor (4x-4)^2 out
And then multiply it by (4x-4)
To get ^3
?
That's already factored
Other than the constant 4
So where do you see (1-x)^2?🫠🥲
After differentiating it
We have two terms
After applying the product rule f’g+g’f
I got
(5)(4-4x)^2 + (-12(4-4x)^2)(5x)
Is this correct?^
Then the next step is to find factors.
All I’m seeing in common is
5 and 5x
And
(4-4x)^2 and another one
Wht
That’s incorrect?🥲
Yeah
In the first term you'll have power 3
And (4x-4)^3 is g
Oh right right my bad it’s 3 I looked at the wrong thing
Yes that’s what I did with power of 3
The 2 is after I took the factor
Cuz you take the smallest power as factor
Idk what you meant but ok
This is what I got
Like when you factor something with a power you take the smallest one
Like if you had x^2+x^3
Oh I think I got it
You’d factor x^2
So you do know about taking factors
So the same here we have (4-4x)^3 and one ^2
What are common in both terms
So I factored the ^2
This and the 5 with 5x
Yeah
Wht
(5)(4-4x)^2 + (-12(4-4x))(x)
The factors^
Heh?
No?🥲
Idk
Wait are the factors correct at least?
I don't understand this
Yeah
It’s this
Uh no? When you take 5(4-4x)^2 as a factor
Then it's MULTIPLIED by the remaining thing
Here you have just added it
To something?
Wait not divided by the remaining things???
OHHHHH
It is multiplied oh my god
You gotta find like what you multiply it by to get the original answer before factoring
Yeah..?
Well there is a + here so what do I do with it then
(5)(4-4x)^3 + (-12(4-4x)^2)(5x)
Here I meant^
There is a plus
So after taking the factors idk what to do
Uh didn't I tell you that is wrong?
This is wrong..
I meant this
(5)(4-4x)^3 + (-12(4-4x)^2)(5x)
This^^
That’s before factoring
Next step I take (5)(4-4x)^2 as factors
But then what do I do with that plus sign
Oh
This is before factoring, this is the step when you apply product rule
The plus is from the product rule formula
That's short bruh
But first this haha
I’m on it for the past 4 hours😭
You know if you want to find the tangent just plug the numbers for slope
Plug x=2 in this
I know you can but I need to know how to simplify that term in general for the exam on Monday
Because we are gonna have a question where it asks just for the derivative
And it’s multiple choice
Ok
So you’ll need to make it look like one of the choices
Well what is the next step😅
How do I factor that
Factor out 5(4-4x)^2
So what
Do I keep it?
There?
When I did you said the terms are being added and then it’s wrong
So what do I do with it
, rotate
@sudden sorrel
Thank you, lemme digest this real quick haha
I see so you rewrote it and put the plus in the middle and negative multiplied by the plus
Then added the x from the 5x to the 12?
Not added but multiplied but yeah
And then the second expression you’d have:
(4-4x) -12x
?
Like the next line
How is it 16x 🥲
Plus times minus is minus so you are left with just -12x
Then multiplied by (4-4x)
It’s -48x+48x^2
So how did we get 4-16x
Isn’t it being multiplied??
Before the factoring they are being multiplied
So how can you just change it to them being added
It’s originally -12(4-4x)
Try to factor it
Or
How do you simplify 4-4x
It’s simplified
Oh wait
You mean with the 1-x
No I don’t get before that how you changed -12times(4-4x)
To (4-4x) plus -12x
How can you change something that is being multiplied to something that is being added
..
(5)(4-4x)^2 ((+)-12(4-4x)^2(5x)
?
That’s what I would have done
Cuz the plus is being multiplied but also the -12 is being multiplied
That's wrong
Lemme ask you
When you factor
5x^2 + 5(-12)x^3
What do you get
Well I would rewrite it as:
5x^2 + 5x^3(-12)
Then factor out 5x^2
And get
(5x)^2 (5x)(-12)
That is so wrong
But it’s being multiplied
In addition with 12x
Bracket means multiply no??

If all three terms are being multiplied can’t they be written the same??
Watch this
(8x10^3)+(90x-32^4)
???????
Oh it's someone else
3x(-12)5 = 3x(5)(-12)
Right??
Yeah?
So why can’t I rewrite
5(-12)x^3
As
5x^3(-12)
Let's take a simpler example
Wait this is right
I thought you said something else
.......
So then this is the factor?
Yes please
...
Let's take
X^2 + x^3
Can you factor
x^2(x)
Wth
Watch this bro
Yeah
x^3
Oh
Write the whole damn thing bro
This is the whole thing
I got a question
! occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
Wait the factor doesn’t stay after you multiply it with something??
??
Ok so this is Kinda of a grade 7 question
8927382118.8274212341 in exponential form.
I don't remember this
I need help.
Watch the video bro

I thought it stays😭
Idk what you're talking about
So it’s x^2(1+x)???
Yeah
Wtf
Finally
Wdym
If you distribute the x^2
Wait hold on lemme try the previous one
You get back the same thing
K
No
Yeah... No..?
It kinda is
Just watch the video bro
I can't explain very well on chat
Okay I’ll go watch it, I like that YouTuber too haha
He speaks and explains by doing examples

Problem 7
so I started by flipping the graph
so $y =- \sqrt{3x-x^2}$
I then shift the graph to the left by 4 units so
\
$y = -\sqrt{3(x+4}-(x+4)^2}$
\
I then shift it down by one unit so $y+1 = -\sqrt{(3(x+4) - (x+4)^2}$

i got the answer but I was wondering why I need to subtract it instead of adding it since it want the total charge for that month
Let's say you have a scale
But the start part is broken
So you measure a pencil from 2cm mark to 6cm mark
What will be the length of the pencil
@feral forge
4 cm
Exactly
Same can be applied here
Ur handwriting is so neat thats crazy
Wlcm 
Yeah
AWHHHH THANKIUU 🥹🥹
The charge for that month means end - initial then you’ll get the usage during the month:)

I'm trying to find the limit of $\sqrt{x}e^{sin(\frac{\pi}{x}})$ at $x=0^+$
Veni, vidi, perii is not f(wai)
I was thinking $\pm \sqrt{x} e^x$
Tried L hospital?
Veni, vidi, perii is not f(wai)
I think there is no need to think cause you can directly put the limit.
I've been asked to use the squeeze theorm here
Ok got it
Is this function?
yea apply it since sine is bounded
between -1 and 1
cool
to bound the function, this is what I wanted to use
Veni, vidi, perii is not f(wai)
sqrt(x) is increasing and positive you can multiply the inequalities by it
.
i was just making a point

for these why does it matter what order t he sin and cos is if they are multiplying?
It matters whether A or B is in the sin (with the other one in the cos)
It's really the exact same formula because
-sin(A-B) = sin(B-A)

You forgot that x had a square in the gx
Its on the parenthesis
+3 should be -3 mybad
The denominator is supposed to be (x^2 -3)^2 if I’m not wrong
So its 4/x^2 -6x +6

- a
,rotate
Is it -4?
you can just substitute yeah
That’s the solution
You can simply plug it in, because the function is consecutive at x = 0
For sure
yes
0?
It won’t work
the denominator has x
Limit is a concept of finding the neighbors of the value
What is the difference if it would be from the left instead ?
0^-
Any difference at all?
Yes, opposite sign
So +4?
Same
Well it was just a theoretical question of a)
For (a) it doesn't matter
The limits from both sides are the same and equal to the value at that exact point
Left lim = right lim = lim
The function is continuous at that point
If lim exists, it is equal to both left lim and right lim
Okay, but won’t it be +3/0?
No because that's just not a number
Well, a limit can also be +inf or -inf
More formally it would be (3+ε)/((3+ε)-3), with ε positive and arbitrarily close to 0
Sooo the denominator gets as close to -inf and the top gets as close to +inf?
Oh okay
The denominator goes to 0 but what matters is from which side
Is it positive or negative?
Posetive
So you get +inf
Didn’t understand that, but can’t you look at the 3^+
And see that we close in from the right, which tells us that it is + inf
Is this to any help?
This tells you the limit of 1/x at 0+ for example
Where ???
No it says +inf
Oh ye wrong line
One last question, so the sum in the denominator is = 0, or?
How come it is not 0 then
And not infinity
Precisely because it's the denominator
This is a graph of 1/x
You can clearly see that when x approches 0, it goes to either infinities
No but it's similar
Ok
The numerator doesn't matter, it's 3, it doesn't contribute because you get either +inf or -inf anyway
The denominator is 0, but that just means the function is undefined there
The limit from the right is +inf, similar to 1/x at 0+
And how does 0!!!!! Become + infinity
The point is that when you evaluate the limit, you do not get 0 in the denominator
You approach 0
We approach 0 but never gets to it
Just compute the values of x/(x-3) for x=4, then x=3.1, then x=3.01, then x=3.001, and so on
You'll just get higher and higher values
At the limit, it becomes +inf
Okay i think I might understand it somewhat
For B then
It’s similar ?
Well wait that must be 0
You can also look at the graph
This is x/(x-3) along with the line x=3
Ohhh okay
For (b) it's different
We get close to 3 but never 3
Yes
Not sure what you mean
Me neither I’m trying to translate from Swedish..
It’s division
Is it because of that
About x/(x-3)?
Yes
Ye and it gets bigger and bigger
Yes
For B then, what are the play rules ?
What is the first step I should do in order to try and find the limit
If I can not graph it
Oh I’m sorry, should have posted it again
Posetive ?..
Absolute values
Yeah so... Do you know the definition of abs value?
Kinda, may need to repeat it tho
Apart from making everything non negative (which is a actually a property, not the definition)
Basically you can define it like this:
|x| = x, if x >= 0
|x| = -x, if x < 0
For sure, you need to know that (not only for limits, but also for all the future math you'll encounter)
This i rembeber !
Awesome, that's what you need here
So do you agree that
$\lim_{x \to 0^-} \frac{x + |x|}{x} = \lim_{x \to 0^-} \frac{x - x}{x}$
No
Nel
Sorry, 0- not 0+
So what's the numerator here?
-x?..

Hahahaha I’m sorry
What's 6 - 6?
0
Yeah better
The numerator is x-x, the denominator is x
Considering x -> 0+, can you describe with words what each of them equal?
Each of the x’s?
No, the numerator and the denominator
I don't know why I keep writing 0+
I’m a lost cause ain’t I
Considering x -> 0-, can you describe with words what x-x equals, and then what x equals?
Yes
Exactly
x-x is always exactly 0
x however is not quite 0, it's something less than 0 but arbitrarily close
Why does it not become 0😢
Okey
Try (c) and then look at the graph
You need parentheses but yes
2 x?
Yes, and what's 2x / x?
2
Right

I have no idea how to graph a function, I missed the lecture for this as I was out
You draw the x and y axis
Then scale them with numbers
After that you place the definite points of the graph
What're those?
The points that are clearly defined in the properties
Meaning doesn't have limit
Like 3 and 5
so the definite points on 3 and 5 are 1 and 4?
Yeah these are the y values of the points
oh so 1 and -2 are the x?
Yeah
so does that mean 3 and 5 when sketched are are just points on a graph?
Yeah
okay, got that
Then you slowly get to use the other information
Like for example to the right of the one there is only 2 properties
1 and 8
From 8 you know that as you are going to infinity the function approaches -1
And from 1 you know that the graph on the right touches the point 1
So you start drawing from point 1 a line to the right that approaches -1 as you keep going to the right.
But never reaches -1
like this?
And draw it like a curve that starts to get down quickly to -1 at the start then it starts to flatten out with time
No
There are many mistakes there
Ok 2 mistakes
Not that many
Also I recommend drawing the graph with a pencil
To erase things Easley
It is
Ok
The first one did you check property 2
It says that the graph on the left of the one starts from 0
And what does the property 7 say
Infinity?
I mean about reading them
Like if I asked $\lim_{x\to1^+} f(x)= 2$
Do you actually understand that
Sherif Player
I don't
That's the problem
Okay what about
$$\lim_{x\to1}f(x) = 2$$ would you understand that
Sherif Player
Without the +
the y point would be 2?
No
It means that as you get more and more closely to point 1 with function f(x) you gets more and more closely to the value of 2
It doesn't indicate that
f(1) = 2 though
okay then
Like this
Here the limit as you get closer and closer to 1, f(x) gets closer and closer to 2
But actually f(1) = 0 here
the + and - mean which side of the graph its coming from, right?
Yeah
The positive means to/from the right of the value
The negative means to/from the left of the value
and if theres neither, it comes from both sides?
Yes
As x approaches + infinity means as x keeps going to the right
The value of the function gets closer and closer to L
But it actually doesn't get equal to L as it goes
okay
Negative is the same but to the left
so each of these criteria, so i'm understanding this right
2 point, and 6 different lines?
how do I know which properties refer to which?
You understand what the property wants you to draw
You should not try to figure how many lines you should draw
Instead you like try and connect the properties together
If you looked on the properties you will find that to the right of the 1
There is only 2 properties
Which are 1 and 8
The first one explains the limit of f(x) as x goes to 1 from the right
And 8 explains how the line would approach as x keeps going to the right
If you think about it, it is the same line, which starts from 1 and keeps going to the right
Read property 8 again
-1?
What does f(x) approach as x approaches infinity
Yup -1
leave some space?
Make it like it is approaching -1 without getting to be -1
Yeah
so where does it start from?
I dont understand
I want to make sure you do understand
So first you put the dots
Which is done
Then we start looking for applying other properties
What property 1 says?
(1,1)
(-2,4)
Yeah we finished that part
as x approaches 1, it gets closer to the y value 1?
Yeah but approaches one from right or left?
from the right because it says +?
Yes
So if you looked at any other property there is nothing to be done to the right of the point (1,1) except that property (property 1) and property 8
ohhh because +infinity ok
so I do what I did before, but starting at the point 1,1?
Yeah if you looked at the other properties you will find them happening at the left
Yeah but do you understand why we start from that point
because its on the right of the graph?
You didn't get my point
We start from this point because of property 1 that says as we approach 1 from the right we get closer and closer to y value 1
Which is that exact point
okay, I think I got that then
Okay
Now let's think of where to start the graph at the left of point 1,1
Do you see the property that will tell us where
is it 6 or 7?
well it says as x approaches 1 on right side of the graph
so 2 because its talking about the left side
it has a -
as x approaches 1 on the left side of the graph, it gets closer to y value 0
It doesn't mean on the left side of the graph
It means on the left side of the value
Like on the left of x= 1
got it
As we approach x = 1 from the left y approaches 0
So what does that say about the point we are starting at the left of x = 1
No
You have a problem with graphing limits by the way, I would recommend watching a video about it
suggestions would be much appreciated
This calculus video tutorial explains how to evaluate limits from a graph. It explains how to evaluate one sided limits as well as how to evaluate the function using graphs. The graphs include points of discontinuity such as holes, jump discontinuities and infinite discontinuities such as vertical asymptotes. Horizontal asymptotes are include...
alright so sshould I watch this video and come back?
This for general understanding @hollow pumice
But for the specific problem you can watch this
https://youtu.be/LJCLiCOr4ek?si=2PHshTr2aw316toM
In this video we sketch a graph using information about limits.
I recommend watching the first one before getting to this to be able to understand the solution better
I have no problem with that
@hollow pumice Has your question been resolved?
@gentle night alright so
I sorta understand a bit better
what the video didn't explain was how to deal with properties like 4 and 8

✅
ok so you applied propertyies 2,3, and 5 correctly but you did property 7 wrong
can you see how you did it wrong
@hollow pumice ?
hm
read property 7
as x approaches infinity, it gets closer to y value -1
7 not 8
so in you graph
as x approaches -1 from the right side, why does it get closer to negative infinity
ohhhh its supposed to be going up?
yeah that is what property 7 means
it needs to go up for y to approach infinity as x goes to -1 from the right
ok that is almost correct
regarding property 6?
but read property 4
as x approaches negative infinity, it gets closer to y value of 2
ok in your graph as x approaches negative infinity, y gets closer to 0
that is y gets closer to 1
the other thing is that why did you make that line that goes to -2,4
almost correct
What'd i do wrong
i will explain later but answer the previous question
The dotted lines?
I'm sorry I don't know which one you're talking about
I honestly forgot why I even drew that
yeah, it is not stated in any of the properties so just delete it
now about the minor mistakes.
for a function to be called function it needs to have the property that for any 1 input only 1 output is given from the function
so that is why any function needs to pass something called the vertical line test, which is a test where if you draw a vertical line any where on the x - axis it needs to intersect f(x) only at 1 point.
Now what is that have to do with the graph
the property 5 says that f(-2) = 4
which means that at x = -2, y = 4 and there should be no other point under or above it. that is why you need to put a hole on any line you draw that passes below or above it
so you will need to put a hole under that point on that line
the other minor mistake is that hole with the dot in it, which does not make since mathimatcly, like the hole means that that the line does not contain the number it started at but because you put the dot it actually means that the line contain the number it started with so just erase that hole and you will be ok
that is it
@hollow pumice send the picture here to make sure of it
very cool
just make the right line curvy and smooth not bent like that
like that
Alright, I'm gonna try to do all this without looking at the past steps now
Thank you so much for the help
you're welcome

Sam and Tom each choose a positive integer, which they share with a third
person (but not with each other!). They are then told that 280 is either the sum
or the product of the two chosen numbers, and are asked whether they know the
number chosen by the other person. Sam says, ”I do not know Tom’s number”.
Tom then says, ”I do not know Sam’s number”, to which Sam replies, ”Now I
know Tom’s number!”. What can you say about the number chosen by Sam?
is this from mind your decisions?
This is one of the hardest logic puzzles I have ever come across.
