Can anyone tell me how to solve these I have 0 idea how
!status
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
2nd pic, use the angle bisector theorem
BC/BA = CD/DA
now note triangle DBA is isosceles
can you proceed from here?
(and triangle DCB is also isosceles)
there's a lot of similarity going on as well
for the 1st pic I would draw AE such that AEC = ACD = y and hence angle EAB = x
isosceles triangles again
Thanks

yo
4c
i dont get what to d
for part b
ur boundaries are 150,180
so
lower boundary for heavy
180
we find z score of 100%
and find boundary
which is 305
so heavy
is
180<W<305
we find z score of 200
200-165/35
then find probability
which is
0.8413
is probability weighs less than 200
and since it must be freater 180
0.8413-2/3
then u must find probaility of it being heavy
so then
(0.8413-2/3)/(1/3)
and done
ffs i answered the question
but what i dont get also
is D

Help please
what have you tried
perhaps try rationalising the denominator
But how do I do square root 2 -1
How do I do that-
Ohh
wait the whole fraction or?
just the 12/(sqrt(2) -1)
@obtuse robin Has your question been resolved?
Yeah
so what do I do now?
simplify it
?
what does your denominator say?
Square root 2-1 x Square root 2+1
This?
im unsure how you came to that
Wait I made a mistake
Idk how to expand it
Maybe I'll watch a video on surds and come back here later-

can someone help me with finding f'(x) because i genuinely don't know how to even approach this
Kepe
what would i take as u and v?
so e^3sin(x) would be u and cos(x) would be v?
Yes
(Since multiplication is commutative in R you can also exchange u and v, it doesn't matter)
You should get $f'(x) = 2\Big(\big(e^{3\sin(x)} \cdot 3\cos(x)\big)\cos(x) + e^{3\sin(x)} \cdot (-\sin(x))\Big)$

can someone give me an expression that i can use to solve it. I dont want to solve it by listing out all possible combinations
OK, so there are two major ways of making a square.
You can pick two of two different colors.
You can pick two of one color and one each from two other colors.
Let's do the first first.
Let's say you have two reds and two blues.
How many different (according to the rules here) squares are there with two red sides and two blue sides?
2 right?
Right, so 6 'different' squares on the first part.
Let's do the second part.
Let's say we have two red sides, one green side, and one blue side.
How many 'different' squares are there?
2?
is there one where reds are connecting
and one where reds arent
becasue if you reflect you can haveb the green ands blue swapped
Yes, you do the same thing.
And then there are 3 ways of choosing the color for the two sides.
So, you have 6.
is it just 6+6 then?
Right.
You're welcome.

Hey everyone, I argued with my math teacher and need some help figuring out who’s correct here.
Here’s the situation: We were solving a problem where I had to multiply three ranges of numbers together. Two of them were already negative (e.g., something like -3 ≤ x ≤ -1), but the third was positive (e.g., 1 ≤ y ≤ 3 ). Instead of making everything positive before multiplying (as my teacher wanted), I decided to "give the minus" to the positive range, flipping it to be between negative numbers (-3≤ - y ≤ -1) . Then, I multiplied all the ranges and flipped the result at the end to return to the original signs.
My result was correct. But my teacher said I wasn’t allowed to do it this way. She insisted that I make all the ranges positive before multiplying them because that’s the rule she teaches us. She also said it wasn’t valid to just multiply negative ranges like that. We argued, and she couldn’t give me an actual counterexample to prove me wrong, so I’m stuck wondering: Am I right?
For context, I study in the Common Core in Morocco. I understand that the method I used isn’t the "standard" one, and I’m not saying it’s easier or better. But as far as I can tell, the math works out.
So is my method valid, or did I miss something? Let me know what you think, especially if you’ve dealt with similar arguments before!
Thanks in advance!
PS: She tried showing me a counterexample but couldn't. Also, I write in French, and so does my teacher. The text in red in the copy means you can't multiply a negative by a negative.
-'' on a '' means we got
- P(x) equals (x+2)(x-1)(2x-3)
How do I solve for x with the exponent being a fraction?

Just do square
I'll take a look in a bit. At a glance, what you did is fine, but let me double check
Alright
@vestal badger tbh it's too hard to read
Tu ne peux pas multiplier membre à membre sur des inegalites négatives, c'est une règle
First, what is the problem you are trying to solve?
i'm not following the image either tbh

I want to know where is located P(x)
Between what and what
what is P(x)?
P(x) equals (x+2)(x-1)(2x-3)
equals? Or inquality?
and we have -1<x<1
so you want to know the image of P(x) for x between -1 and 1?
Yesss
and you're asked to do this without differentiation?
P(x) = (x+2)(x-1)(2x-3) and we have to give the image of it for x between -1 and 1 , like knowing between what and what
i didn't understand what do you mean by differentiation
dont worry about it then
it's just that i find weird being asked what you are being asked, because with the tools that you have your bounds are gonna be significantly larger than the actual answer
okay, so from what i see, you're computing the range of each of the three terms
Oh okay, so you want the range of $P(x)=(x+2)(x-1)(2x-3)$ restricted to $x\in[-1, 1]$?
SWR
Exaclty
so for -1<x<1 you have:
1<x+2<3
-2<x-1<0
-5<2x-3<-1
Correct
-1*
and i gave a minus to x+2 to make it negative
why?
okay, so technically, you can say that
-3<-(x+2)<-1
Correct
however, your initial polynomial does not have that
so while your interval is correct, your usage of it is not
basically, if your polynomial is P=A*B*C, you're computing the bounds of P'=(-A)*B*C
Wait wait , when I gave it the minus i multiplied all of them together and at the end i multiplied by -1
Exactly and i multiplied everything by -1 to make it ABC
no, what you want is on the three exact factors that you have, the product that gives the maximum value, and the product that gives the minimum value
you have 8 possible products, since each factor can have two values
so in theory, you'd neet to compute the 8 products, and get the minimum and maximum values
this would give you bounds of -30<=P<=10
however, there has to be something wrong here, since P can have values over 10 in that range
(and is always positive)
why would it be always positive
damn bro this is too advanced for me
see, the thing is, usually with differentiation you'd compute where those two maximum and minimum points are, and you'd obtain the exact values for the range
Ohhh i see
but we didnt do that , we just did order rules
oh, wait, i see the issue
while as you can see on the image, the actual value is between 0 and (approx) 10.05
But the correct answer (according to the teachers correction ) is 0<P(x)<30
Oooh
two mistakes in the table actually
there you go your 0 to +30
im gonna delete the other 2
that's what happens when i try to math at bedtime
Yea it arrives to everyone dw
But it doesn’t answer my qst
Because I had the same result but the teacher didn’t count it because I can’t multiply when they are negative
well, you can, but you're just doing redundant unnecessary steps
it makes no sense bounding -P when you can bound P directly
Yea
But as you said it is still correct
And there is no logical or mathematical issue there

What am I doing wrong here?
I solved for a_2 by plugging a_1 in, then used the geometric sequence equation, plugged everything in and its wrong
this is the correct answer and im not sure why
it's the same

If a quadratic function only has positive value for -1 < x < 3 and has a maximum value of 3, then the equation for that quadratic function is?
!status
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
many such functions
OK, but how far have you made it in solving it?
This seems a little weird; assuming the function is continuous, arent there a lot more positive values than 2?
They didn't say it was positive values for integers in -1 < x < 3.
Thats exactly my point
Isnt it fully possible for f(x) = 1.99999999999
Is that within -1 < x < 3?
Oh wait i didnt read the question properly
@jade glade Has your question been resolved?
I can't solve it 
Eh to be accurate, I don't know where to begin
OK, so they're saying it's a quadratic.
Which means the graph of it will be a parabola.
Like:
,w plot x^2 - 5
@jade glade
Does that make sense so far?
Yes
OK, now notice where it crosses the x axis.
In between those two points, it's all negative.
And it has a minimum value that's halfway between where it crosses the x axis.
The y value is all negative?
In between the two places where it crosses the x axis, yes.
Yes that is what I mean 
Notice how that opens downwards.
You can also see where it crosses the x axis.
Between the two places it crosses the x axis, everything is positive.
That's kind of like in your problem.
Everything between x = -1 and x = 3 is positive.
Do you see that in the graph?
Yes, it is because before x intercept all of the y value is positive
I cant.....
You can't what?
Oh, right now, we're just noticing what's in the graph.
The parabola curve crosses the x axis at x = -1 and x = 3.
Between those two xs, y is always positive.
Waitt? So -1+3/2 = 2 so vertex is (3,2)
Nope.
The places where it crosses the x axis (x intercepts) are called the roots.
Roots are where the graph is at y = 0.
Where it crosses the x axis.
The x intercepts.
Now there's a special form for roots called the factored form.
Yes
y = a(x - (-1))(x - 3)
Notice the x intercepts are at -1 and 3.
And I wrote those subtracted from x.
y = a(x - (-1))(x - 3).
Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding, so:
y = a(x + 1)(x - 3)
Now, you have a maximum of 3.
The maximum or minimum will appear right in the middle of the two roots.
So, like our roots are at x = -1 and x = 3. What's halfway between -1 and 3?
-1+3/2 is 1?
Right.
So, our maximum will be at x = 1, y = 3.
So, now we can figure out that a value.
y = a(x + 1)(x - 3)
3 = a(1 + 1)(1 - 3) like this?
Right.

Now we know the whole thing in factored form.
y = -3/4(x + 1)(x - 3)
Then, we multiply out everything on the right side.
And that'll give us one of the answers.

True or false
- If the Taylor expansion of ( f(x, y) ) is of the form ( 2 + 3x + 4xy + o ), the gradient of the function is ( (3, 0) ).
- When interpolating an odd function ( f(x) = -f(-x) ) with 9 points, we obtain a polynomial of degree 7.
- The Newton method for finding the roots of an equation has quadratic convergence, which means that the number of correct digits doubles from iteration to iteration.
- Numerical approximation of integrals is more precise when partitions of the integration interval are approximated.
- An approximation of ( \int_0^1 x^2 dx ) using the trapezoidal rule is exact.
- Given the function ( \ln x ), we define Newton iterations starting from ( x_0 = 3 ); in this case, the iteration ( x_1 = 3(1 + \ln 3) ).

Hi everyone! This is more of a physics question, but I hope someone can still help me. I am trying to solve question 10.
It says:
On the diagram below, results for an experiment which attempts to calculate the heat capacity and heat of vaporization for water are shown. 490 grams of water was warmed until only 395 grams remained. What is the result of heat capacity and heat of vaporization of water?
I am currently trying to calculate what the heat capacity is, but im getting the wrong answer. The correct answer is c = 4.21
@serene acorn Has your question been resolved?
you haven't considered the heat of vaporisation of the water
2 250 000 J/kg
(I got this value online)
adding the two together you have $E = mc \Delta T + mL$
$c = \frac{E - mL}{m \Delta T}$
south
ah and the standard units are J and g (or kJ and kg)
so you should convert this to L = 2250 J / g
@serene acorn Has your question been resolved?
I cant find any sources that show heat if vaporization being used in calculating heat capacity
yeah I think I made a mistake
Also not sure if I did it wrong, but if i try doing E - mL, i get:
160 - 2250 = -2090
,calc 160000/(75 * 490)
Result:
4.3537414965986
Btw i made a mistake in my notebook, it should be 0.49 kg and not 490 g
yeah the heat capacity is given by the slope
and then the enthalpy of vaporisation is given by the (change in energy) / (mass lost), Q = mL, so two separate calculations that's correct
honestly that just sounds like a textbook error then
Could be, but the real heat capacity for water is 4.2, which isnt exactly what the textbook says but its close enough, while mine isnt
Which is what worries me that I might have missed something

the question as to find the components of vector q
You swapped the values of q1 and q2
what do y mean ?
your value for q1 is actually supposed to be the value of q2
@lament fractal
It's in the 4th quadrant so the x component is positive and the y component is negative
And are you told that || q ||=1
no the magnitue of q is 1
the question says it is a unit vector

hello, i have two linearly independent continuous functions u and v from [0,1] to R and i need to prove that for all (a,b) in R^2, there exists a continuous function f from [0,1] to R such that
$\int_{0}^{1} u(x)f(x) dx = a$ and $\int_{0}^{1} v(x)f(x) dx =b$
macilak
Well if the functions u and v are linearly independent, think of a way to get two orthogonoal functions from u and v
what's an orthogonal function ?
is it a function such that the integral of the product of the two is zero ?
exactly yes
so i need to construct f ?
if you have a pair of orthogonal functions, f is very straightforward to construct
say you orthogonal functions are g and h
then $\int_0^1g(x)g(x) dx=k$ and $\int_0^1h(x)h(x) dx=l$
The د
mmm why did you take the integral of the square of the functions ?
you can now replace the second $g(x)$ with $c_1\cdot g(x)$ so that the inner product is equal to $c_1k$
The د
and you can choose $c_1$ such that $c_1k = a$
The د
now you can also replace $c_1g(x)$ with $c_1g(x)+c_2h(x)$ without changing the value of the integral at all since $h$ is orthogonal to $g$
The د
also choose $c_2$ such that $\int_0^1 h(x) [c_1g(x)+c_2h(x)]dx=b$
The د
are two linearly independent functions orthogonal ?
ah no
you said to get two orthogonal functions from u and v
yes exactly
do you know how to do that?
mmm nop
I encourage you to look up the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization process
its not so bad at all
i wouldn't know much about how they look other than that $\int_0^1h(x)g(x)dx=0$
The د
but aren't their expressions supposed to have v and u ?
yes they would depend on u and v for sure
they would be linear combinatoins of u and v
is it possible to get an explicit expression of h and g ?
yes thats what the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization process is all about
okay when you said wouldn't know much about how they look i thought it wasn't possible
mb i misunderstood what you meant by how they looked
so you do know their explicit expression right ?
yes
a short summary of how it works is as follows
let $g(x)=u(x)$
The د
$h(x)=v(x)-\int_0^1u(x)v(x)dx\cdot u(x)$
The د
this removes all the component that is parallel to u from v
enusruing that v is orthogonal to u

you mean g orthogonal to h ?
its in terms of vectors but same same
sorry yes
g is orthogonal to u which is equal to h
so what would be the expression of f ?

$f=c_1g+c_2h=c_1u+c_2(v-\int_0^1uv \cdot u)$
The د
where $c_1 ||u||^2=a$ and $c_2 ||v||^2=b$
The د
sure no worries

yo guys, i may have found a new formula for factorials, it works for every z in C except (1, -1/2 and every other negative integer). the last step to complete it would be to solve the integral but i couldnt do it, i would appriciate it if somebody here has time to waste trying to solve it. (also lemme know eventually if the formula is arleady known or not thanks)
if you try putting z=1/2 it works so i assumed it works for every other number in the field of existence.
i solved it but it is too small to write in the margins of this discord message
i wrote the formula wrong im sorry here the good one
lmao
not the fermat ref haha
regardless please close this channel for actual problems
???
yes
Ur using a factorial in your formula for a factorial
yes why not lol
it was just to show off it useless ik but it was kinda fun proving it :)
Disproven by desmos
try with 1/2
That does work, but that's just one number though
Unfortunate
how did you even get to this point
do you want the short or the long explanation?
there is a long answer?
i mean the complete proof with long answer
i can screenshot it from notebook

What does the ± but with the minus on top mean?
it means that it takes the opposite sign of the ±
Closed by @wispy burrow
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
if you write it in a series then that means that the next term would have a minus

does anyone understand 1b
trivial solution means L = {(0,0,0)}
anti-algebraist 𝔸dωn𝓲²s
where did I say we ignore something?
the answersheet didnt mention it was what i meant mb
so a isnt equal to minus 1
and how can we follow this up
a isnt equal to -1 and beta is a ?
2(beta) - 2(alpha) = 0
alpha = beta
so whatever alpha is, is also beta
alright
so we indeed have x3 = 0
but looking at the 2nd row
isnt x2 = 2 then?
hmm I just noticed too
take the last row reduced matrix
4th column should be fulled of 0
and then yeah
1+a^3 != 0
else the only trivial sol wouldn't be 000
for (c) its quite the same mind but little bit different
same for (d)

Determine the limit of the sequence or show that the sequence diverges. If it converges, find its limit.
$a_n=\frac{(n!)^2}{(2n)!}$
dingypine
Ok so I don't really know where to start with this problem. The thing that's really throwing me off is the factorial.
I know to determine whether the sequence converges or diverges I should take the limit of a_n as n -> heads to infinity
first thing that comes to mind is the Stirling formula, are you allowed to use that?
I've never heard of that, and I don't believe we went over that in class ever
its a approximation for the factorial function, that is actually equal in the limit
I guess are there any other methods to go about this besides Stirling's formula?
[
\boxed{
\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\sqrt{2 \pi n} \left(\frac{n}{e}\right)^n}{n!} = 1
}
]
tobi
yes there are other methods, like I said that was just the first thing that came to my mind
aha okay, what else could I do then?
do you know how the factorial is defined
well thats how its defined
yes that’s fine now just do that for each and expand
maybe try writing it for a general case n and using the product notation
Ok I'll do that rn
i think this works, i had to change it because it was being multiplied somehow since its being multiplied by 2
assuming that works, what can I do next here then? If I try to take the limit it will just be inf/inf I think
for that matter
whats wrong with it?
oh cool
first of all you can cancel some things
multiplying by the number 1 in the way you are doing is not necessary :D
aha ok good to know
ok so i think ive cancelled what I could, what can I do from here tho?
i think itll still be inf/inf if i try to take the limit as n -> inf
do you know how to write n! in product notation?
honestly no
have you worked with summation notation before?
yes ive worked with summation notation before
okay then the product notation wont be that different
its just that instead of adding the terms we multiply that
and write that with a capital pie
Ok let me try then
try with writing n! in product notation
what would that be equal to?
would equal to n!?
yeah nice
Ok cool
So you want this, to be in that form?
yeah
maybe factor it like this
$\frac{1}{n+1} \cdot \frac{2}{n+2} \cdot \frac{3}{n+3} \cdot \dots \cdot \frac{n}{2n}$
tobi
so close
👏 👏
now products are kinda annoying right?
i guess so
if there would be any way to turn products into sums hm
thats usally what I try when solving these problems
how would you do that tho?
however im still not sure how to solve the problem from there but we will figure it out
$\ln(a \cdot b) = \ln(a) + \ln(b)$
tobi
Do you want me to put everything around an ln and work on seperating it from there?
I would try that, that's usually a good idea, when working with a limit of a product
yeah
you can add 0 in the denominator adding + n - n
well you can do further algebraic manipulation
that's not how you add or cancel fractions
ok yeah im a dumbass let me try again
take your time, we are all here to learn
is this what youre looking for?
I'm honestly not sure what else i could do
wait what
it didn’t paste the right image
hold on
ok that’s the one i was looking to paste
$\frac{i+n-n}{i+n} = \frac{i+n}{i+n} - \frac{n}{i+n}$
but yeah idk what else i could manipulate algebraically
tobi
yeah or you can write it in one ln
Alright
Ok so one fraction cancels out, and then youre just left with the one all the way on the right
have you had taylor series before?
first of all do you have an intuition for what the solution should be?
its easier to show something, when you have a goal in mind
Well I'm honestly not sure, I assume it will be divergent just by looking at some graphs but idk
the number in the numerator, will always be smaller then the one in the denominator
Does that mean it’ll head to 0?
yeah, but now we have to proof that
How do you go about doing that? The way I usually go about doing these problems is setting up a limit but that hasn’t worked so far here
In this case? I'm honestly not sure.
okay what we can also do is we can show that
1/a_n tends to + inf as n -> inf
this implies a_n goes to 0 as n goes to inf
Ok
I honestly have no idea
tobi
if this is limit is equal to + (or - inf) then your original limit is equal to 0
just like you wrote down this
Okay I see
Alright man thank you for all the help and the support
. I'll try to finish this on my own since I don't wanna take up much more of your time since we've been working on this for more than an hour, but I appreciate it. Thank you ‼️

can you visualize the disks?
not in three dimensions, the delta y is confusing me
i keep visualizing it with circles instead
@pliant cypress Has your question been resolved?
but where do they get figure 8.4 from 😭
like, where is it coming from, or what is it itself?
where is it coming from?
the "slices" here encompass dy and the inside of the hemisphere; in other words, its representing the infinitesimally small slices (which here are circles, if you take cross-sections parallel to the base) (also use your logic of hemi-"sphere") so i suppose its true derivation would be from a question, but that is all the information i can gather from the picture
figure 8.4 is a side view
the disk is just a horizontal line here. they didn't give it any thickness
oh wait
and then the radius is the only thing changing
which like
okay i see

did you do that in your work
no
do that
then you can start building a continued fraction

start with $\frac{158}{11} = 14 + \frac{4}{11}$
knief
knief
ok
what
i just asked someone
and they said
1/11/4
no
wait
ok
they a
14
well it was 2a right
2a = 14
yes
then
they did 1 over 4/11 is equal
to b-2 over c
and they b as 3
and c as 8
and they did trail and error
yea well this way doesn’t require trial and error
how
$\frac{11}{4} = 2 + \frac{3}{4}$
knief
which means we have
$14 + \frac{1}{2 + \frac{3}{4}}$
knief
yea i guess
well i was just going to match terms
yea i was going to make $\frac{3}{4}\to \frac{2}{\frac{8}{3}}$
knief
oh c needs to be an integer yea
i just multiplied top and bottom by 2/3
ok'
$14 + \frac{1}{3 - \frac{2}{8}}$
wait then you
what
i have to go eat
can u just right down how you got the soultion
sorry i have to go
you can just read the chats back
oh it says -2/c
ok so 2 + 3/4 = 3 - 1/4
then just write 1/4 as 2/8
done

$x^2 +6x + 9 = 1$
Simon James B
can someone explain how to solve this using delta? i am stuck because we have = 1 and always i had = 0 idk what to do with this 1 to we take it to the left hand side and then say = 0 ? or??
don't use delta
?
whats the lhs
x^2 +6x + 9
don't you see smth about it ?
(x+3)^2
OH
no need goofy delta
x + 3 = 1
x = 1 - 3
x = -2
x+3 = -1
x = - 4
i am on the lesson with delta so i think it's point was to use it
then -1 both sides
so that you have quad = 0
and use delta
$x^2 + 6x + 9 -1 = 0$
Simon James B
Simon James B
so delta here is = 36 - 32 = 4

limx→0 sin3x /x
no, it's not the same
try to get it in the form of $\lim_{x\to0} \frac{\sin\bsq}{\bsq}$ where $\bsq$ is anything
hayley (measurable)
like you have 3x on the top, can you multiply or divide by something to get 3x on the bottom as well?
3/3

I am struggling to understand exactly why their solution works, and I don't know how to prove that mine works. So basically I would like to know how I could construct a truth table for my solution to see if it matches the textbooks so I can test my logic
yours works
their says
"If (you are under 4 feet tall and you're not older than 16 years old), then you can't ride a roller coaster"
your says
"Either (if you're under 4 feet tall, you can't ride a roller coaster) or you're older than 16"
ok I have one more example to ask
if I get this one
I think I got it
for my solution (give me 1 sec to draw in paint)
okay, now this is not the same
how come?
yours says that the automated reply cannot be sent exactly when the file system is full
doesn't that symbol mean iff?
but there could also be kind of malfunction in the system (although it isnt necessarily full) and the reply wouldnt be said either
yeah, it does
oh I see what you mean
my statement makes it seem like file system = full is the only way a reply cannot be sent
instead of it being just 1 of the cases
"The automated reply cannot be sent when the file system is full" only tells you that if the system is full, then it cant send the reply
Yep
yeah
so then I would say if the file system is full, then* the* automated reply cannot be sent
yeah, this is fine
and its the same thing as their solution, except they named the constants differently
so c -> a
their -p is same as your a
gotcha
yeah I try to solve these without looking at solutions first so I usually come to something different
I think I get it a bit better now thanks
kind of hard to go from language -> logic
and vice versa
Yeah, the point of that is just to make your understand logic on intuitive level
once you get some understanding, no more translations like these will be needed
you'll be able to do coherent reasoning in natural language
is this how ai works?
