ok thx
let's hope u get helped this time 😭
lets hope😂
@subtle mountain next time you see someone send something with the word fourier in it, i recommend you send them to #odes-and-pdes, because the normal help channels aren’t made for questions that advanced

hi may i get help with this question, please?
so i found that when B = 0, 1, or 3, it can be divisible by 3 and when B = 2, 6, it can be divisible by 4
with that being said, im unsure which values would be correct because i dont know if both numbers must work for both 3 and 4 in order to be correct
could you further explain what you mean by adding 12s please?
@neon iron Has your question been resolved?

✅
oh yes! i did find that when B is 2, the As are 1, 4, and 7 but i couldnt figure out the second B
thank you!
yes please, thats the one ive been stuck on
no worries!
theres 4!
every time i tried a diff number, id only get 3 A values
when B = 4, it wouldn't be able to be divisible by 4 no? bc following the divisibility rules, the number must be divisible by 3 and 4 i believe
yes! but the divisibility rule for 12 follows 3 and 4
the divisibility rule for 4 is the last two digits, so if B = 4, 14/4 wouldnt work
oh! i got 6 as well earlier! dunno why it didnt click that it was the right answer
thank u sm! i appreciate it!

Associative Laws: ¬p∨¬q ∨(p∨q)≡(¬p∨p)∨(¬q∨q)
I know associative low is like this ```
@junior leaf Has your question been resolved?
Basically, you can do ∨ in any order you want.
Parenthesis can go in any order you want
@junior leaf Has your question been resolved?
can u pls explain more? because the low has only 3 parts p, q and r while in the example it has 4 parts. I just don't know how they combained it

if i take a loan of 2 000 000, with equal payments over the next 30 years, with an annual rent in addition to the total of the loan that is 2,1% (per year of the total sum to pay for), how do i formulate this? the first payment is supposed to be 90532. I tried to do
we're also given the answer, it is supposed to be 90532 in payment the first year after loan is taken
@wicked aspen Has your question been resolved?
Your issue may be that 2.1% is 0.021 not 0.0021 @wicked aspen
ill try that
im supposed to get 90532 to pay for the loan the first year, basically 2 000 000 / 30 because of 30 years down payment + interest rate of original sum, that is 2,1% of 2 000 000
added together, those should make 90532
Can you show me the original question?
I'm swedish actually, so I should be able to understand. This gave it away lol
Hey @wicked aspen, are you using an HP-12c?
PV = 2000000; N=30; i=2.10; FV=0; PMT
i don't know what that is
The idea is that you are paying a fixed amount each year so that by the end of the 30 years you are done paying.
but the answer you got was correct, how could i input what you did, but onto geogebra CAS?
wait youre right, maybe its supposed to be that amount every year
don't know how to calculate that myself though
we use geogebra
@wicked aspen
$2000000 = \sum_{k=1}^{30} {PMT \over (1+2.10%)^k}$
keepitalphanumeric
This is a geometric progression, that you can simplify... and get the result
we use this
Never seen this before
So I just did some googling, there's this formula for it that looks like this and I got the right answer using it
S is how much you owe (2 mil), n is number of payments (30) and p is rent
or this one they're the same thing
Just googled what "annuitetslån" was
Note that if you for example are paying monthly you'd have to divide the yearly rent by 12
ill look at it in an hour when i have time

heyy does someone know how to intergrate this?
so x is the variable
yes
and you want to have x isolated
so like a formula x = ..
an explicit solution
@dapper crow Has your question been resolved?
You can't solve it with just basic integration.
but i have not really an idea how to solve it
hmm
is it possible you can help me with it?
sure, so you have $\dv{x}{t}=rx^2-kx$
Mosh
as I said, this is a seperable DE, so I can write it in the form $f(x)\dd{x}=g(t)\dd{t}$
Mosh
yeah
namely $\frac{1}{x(rx-k)}\dd{x}=\dd{t}$
Mosh
hence $t=\int\frac{1}{x(rx-k)}\dd{x}$
Mosh
what technique is used on RHS?
??

or what do you mean?
i know seperation
u-sub, trig sub, IBP, partial fractions
Yes I clearly asked you a question.
mosh is asking you what technique you need to use to complete that integral

Cause you need to be able to identify the adequete technique.
ok, why?
and what sub?
u=what?
ok, try that
Then you shouldn't be attempting to solve DEs if you only know u-sub.
well i have to
This isn't solvable w/ u-sub.
hmmm
you partial fractions it.
$\frac{1}{x(rx-k)}:=\frac{A}{x}+\frac{B}{rx-k}$
Mosh
then solve for A and B.
no
ffs
me seeing pfd 👀
multiply both sides by x(rx-k)
basically 1=A(rx-k)+B(x)
then you have $1 = A\cdot(rx-k)+B\cdot(x)$
quantum
didn’t want it to look like A and B were functions
@dapper crow do you know what to do to get A and B?
capital letters are rarely used for functions I think
hint: see what you get when you set x = 0
try pauls online notes
im there
xD
thats what i have in front of me now
wait
do you make A(0) for one thing
and B(0) for another thing
ehm
ohh wait
WAIT
yes
rx-k = 0 and x = 0
no
fuck why?!
quantum
you can do x=k/r after x=0 to solve B
do you always set x = 0?
when we have x by itself like this, yes
you just need to make one expression 0 to be able to solve for one/the other variable
we try to first plug in numbers that will make one term 0
in this case x = 0 worked
also how are you doing odes but you don’t know pfd
because, uni's dont tell what you need for certain subjects
so you end up with this stuff
we want to set A to zero aswell right
no
this time
A is what we’re trying to find
we can set x = something
A is a fixed value
after doing this we will know what A is, so we just substitute that back into the equation
quantum
to solve for a
so we can find what A and B are
ahh so now you know what A must be
if $1 = A\cdot(rx-k)+B\cdot(x)$, this will hold for all values of x
quantum
since x is what can vary here
so we set x = whatever is convenient
which here would be 0
when would it not be 0?
when x isn’t by itself
because then that does nothing for us
basically just read that page you have pulled up
from paul right
me gonna finally learn differential equations next week
which will be final week then exams 😭

Using derivatives, determine any local extreme points for the function f ( x ) = 2 ^x - 2 x .
how to solv this question ?
differentiate and find where f'(x)=0, if you don't know how to differentiate 2^x start by rewriting that into e^(something)
i will show u my solution
i didn't calculate anything. i just want to know if i did right ?

find the common ratio
how
ik how to if it was like 1 and 4 in the sequence but not 3 and 6
how would you do it w/ a_1 and a_4?
a1 is the initial term, write a4 as the common ratio
Explain how the algebra goes if you're given a_1 and a_4
you would say $a_4=a_1r^3$ then do what?
Mosh
alr so
a1(r)^n-1
plug in a1 from a1, and then the number n for what ur solving so if it was a4 n would be 4, solve for r
Mosh
sorry im stupid
6-1=5 and 3-1=2.
r^5
crap
a6=a3r3
$60=a_1r^2 \ \frac{160}{9}=a_1r^5$
you know the value of a6 and the value of a3
Mosh
then you can find r3 then r
what do i do with that.. thats the issue
you said you've solved it w/ a_1 and a_4
ive solved when i had a1 and a4
yes.. How did you do that?
answer what I asked.
You said if you're given a_1=something and a_4=something else, you could find r.
divided bothsides by a1 and then rooted to whatever power
Mosh
a2 = r^3?
yes.
27/8=a1^r5)/(a1r^2)
now simplify the RHS
right
hand
side
yes.
so to find a1
do i do
60=a1(3/2)^2 and solve for a1
yes.
i got a=80/3
a1*
which looks about right
thanks so much
actually i thionk thats wrong
when i graph it for a3 its right
but for a6 i get 202.5
when its 160/9

hey I could use some help with this one question:
You roll a die, winning nothing if the number of spots is odd, $3 for a 2 or a 4, and $7 for a 6.
(a) Find the expected value and standard deviation of your prospective winnings.
The expected value is
2.166666667 (Correct )
the standard deviation is _ The answer is supposed to be **1.7360555546666 ** for the standard deviation...
I need help to show how we are able to figure out that the standard deviation for this question is 1.736055...
because I am still struggling to understand how I'm supposed to do this?
i've been trying that till now but i'd fail to get the answer
until i used up all my tries for the question
and found out the answer was 1.736...
and i'm confused because idk how :<
You know how to calculate the variance ?

I forgot how to do this
<@&286206848099549185>
Start with 294 and get it down to its' primes: 2* 3 * 7 * 7
Do the same for your variables, and see if there are matching pairs you can pull outside of the square root (i.e: x^6 = (x^3)^2 so you can pull x^3 out of the square root
then do i multiply all of them by 3/4xy
Everything that you're able to pull out of the square root gets multiplied by that, yes.
so i multiply 7sqrt6 x^3 ysqrty sqrtz all by 3/4xy
....? Hang on ....let me draw this...
So, the 7 comes out, the x^3 comes out, and y comes out
So, you'll have 3/7xy * 7 * x^3 * y * √6y
Because left on the inside of the √2 * 3 * y
Does the drawing help you to see why?
but do you also multiply it by the x and y
Yes - I said that.

So, Move From The Vertex Right 1, Up 1. Right 2, Up 4. If A Has A Value Other Than 1, Multiply The Up/Down Movement By A. Ex: If A Is -2, Move Up (-2)(1) = -2
That's What I Got From That
Now what's confusing me is the find other points by
What is meant by "using a"?
Because the a is not the same a is the one in vertex form right?

Hello I am having trouble with these two problems that are on my math review sheet
$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 = r^2$ is the equation for a circle with radius $r$ and center placed at $(h,k)$
quantum
the domain of a function f(x) is all the values x for which the function is defined
So with the coordinates I would have to put that into H&K and then for 5 I will have to put that into r?
yeah
Oh, okay
Would you be able to explain that further?
not really
not sure how i would
basically no square roots of negative numbers, no division by 0, no logs of 0 or numbers less than 0
stuff like that
Oh okay, thank you so much!
no problem

sqrt(i),
sqrt(i) as a complex numbe...
try watching this
it's an algebraic solution
you should be able to apply your problem with what BPRP does here
in your case, use $\sqrt{2i}$
alias
but that is not a complex number
it is though. you have $i$ in it, and it doesn't cancel or anything similar
alias

the video i showed you does that too

$0+1i = a^2+b^2+abi$

latex pro tip: put a $ on both sides of your equation. the beginning at the end. it's like how in programming you'll use quotes for a string
$a^4=1$

it should be 1+i, since all the others squared are -2i
but yeah, good work! is there anything else i can help with
i dont think so
i dont really understand the last part
@frosty imp
which part?
@neon iron Has your question been resolved?
since all the others squared are -2i
i think you made some sort of mistake on the way. remember that you wanted $\sqrt{2i}$, so your values for it squared should be $2i$

I can’t tell which question was wrong the grading was a bit unclear
and can someone explain why it was wrong? 
bruh... aren't those tick marks... doesn't that means it's correct?
but why the tick marks?

Hello
is the solution to 25-x^4=12 4sqrt 13?
what I did was do +x^4 so that I have 25=12+x^4 then subtract 12 and end up with x^4=13
then I do 4sqrt and end up with 4sqrt13, is that correct?
4sqrt doesn't mean what you think it means
oh, what does it mean?
4sqrt(13) is interpreted as the product of 4 and the sqrt(13)
and not the fourth root of 13
that's what I was trying to say
how would I say that?
there is no nice abbreviation for the fourth root and you're better using fractional exponents
like 13^(1/4)
however this will only be one of the real solutions
ahh
how so?
similar to how x=1 isn't the only solution to x^2 = 1
ah
so 13^(1/4) and -13^(1/4)
those will be the real solutions
sounds good, and is that because the exponent is an even number?

- = +

@restive inlet would my calculation be correct?
assuming that by "4sqrt 13" I meant 13^(1/4)
as mentioned that would only be one of real solutions
and you won't get full marks for it
yup of course
I just forgot to add the -
but other than that my calculations seem to be correct

Is the only correct solution to root(4x/9) = x/3 0?
I got 0 and 4
both 0 and 4 are solutions
are they correct ones?
yes
hmm
how does "punkt vor strich" work in cases like this
I mean for example that * comes before +
who's telling you otherwise
nobody, it is just a matter of whether the root comes first or the calculation in the root

Hey, I took a math exam (and already completed it), but am getting far too anxious in waiting for my professor to grade it. I was wondering if anyone could take a look at my responses and let me know if I did anything wrong. This exam is a huge part of our final grade, so it's really stressful.
Don't worry, I don't want to ask questions to help me on an exam or anything like that; I already completed the exam yesterday. I just want to know how I did before the professor grades it so I can know what to expect.
If this is off-topic or against the rules or anything like that, then I really do apologize and you can just disregard this (and close the question)
The exam itself is for Calculus 2 and is not very long with only 11 questions
I ask this rather than post the questions because I was hoping to go over them one by one with someone

why is the general case function in the primitive recursion operator defined like f(Succ(y),x1,...,xn) = h(y,f(y,x1,...,xn),x1,...,xn) and not just f(y,x1,...,xn)
why does h need the y and all the xs
can't it just be defined as a function on the result of f?

@formal fiber Has your question been resolved?
the cross product between any 2 vectors will give you something perpendicular to the plane they define in response, you can use that to calculate the height of the figure wrt the 3rd vector, it might be helpful to think about the 2d case first
And getting area of one plane side is enough here
Volume of a parallelpiped is either the determinant of the natrix formed by the edge vectors, or the scalar triple product of the 3 vectors

A promissory note is a written statement agreeing to pay a sum of money either on demand or at a definite future time. When a note is purchased for its present value at a given interest rate, the note is said to be discounted and the interest rate is called the discount rate. Suppose a 10,000$ note due 10 years from now is sold to a financial institution for 4900$. What is the nominal discount rate with quarterly compounding?
The nominal rate is ?%

what did i do wrong
The last step seems odd
multiplied left side w x-1/x-1
right side with x+3/x+3
then there was 2 x-1 and 2 x+3 in the numerator
and one of each in denominator
so i canceled
and i got that
hmm
i see
but why can't i cancel
like (x-1)^2
why cant i cancel with the denominator term
Denominator is the term below the numerator right? Or was it the other way around
The problem is that there is a sum not a product in the above term

i have difficulties reading math questions and focusing in lessons in general but i have exams coming up in january and i cant remember a single thing about the area of triangles..
Area of a triangle is base * height / 2
Do you understand what a base and a height are?
yeah im just confused since its slanted and im not sure
Tell me what the height is in this picture
i think 8? im not sure because of the 4 being in the middle of the shape makes it look like height but the 8s going upwards
okay look, you shouldn't judge these things based on where they point towards
It shouldn't matter which you choose to be height
Even though it's objectively one thing
I suppose it'd be best to choose what's actually right
The height here is the line that goes from one of the vertexes to side opposite to it.
And of course, they must have a 90 degrees angle between them
the base is just one of the sides of the triangle
and when choosing a base and a height, make sure the height to a height to that specific base
For example here,
you can't just do 3 * 5 / 2
because the height is not going to that side
You need the height and the base that have a 90 degrees angle
So in here, you would need the base to be the side below the 3

i got a positive answer when u=sin(x)
where was i wrong. they are supposed to be the same right
help
cos(x) ...
so how are you getting from
int u - du
to -1/2 sin^2(x)
and do you see your mistake
don't skips steps
ohh
-1/2cos^2(x)
wait what
what trig identity should i use
sin(x)^2+cos(x)^2 = 1 does not seem to fit
nvm
yeah the integration constant
is -1/2
you can't conclude the value of the integration constant
the best you do is represent it with a variable
C = -1/2
note that both integrals have an arbitrary constant of integration
all that matters is that the results differ by a constant and are equivalent solutions
ok so my answer for:
a is 1/2sin^2(x) + C
b is 1/2sin^2(x) - 1/2
would that be fine?
no
for the last time
you can't conclude the value of the integration constant
-1/2 cos^2(x) + d
and you could do some manipulation to get
1/2-1/2 cos^2(x) + d -1/2 = 1/2 sin^2(x) + d'
(where d' is a constant)
all this does is confirm that the solutions are equivalent
after reaching
-1/2 cos^2(x) + d
that's all you really need
something like this
$\frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)+C\ = -\frac{1}{2}cos^2(x)+E \ \
\frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)+C\ = \frac{1}{2}(sin^2(x)-1)+E \ \
\frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)+C\ = \frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)-\frac{1}{2}+E \\
where -\frac{1}{2}+E \ is \ a \ constant \ \
\frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)+C\ = \frac{1}{2}sin^2(x)+E'$
use E' after combining the -1/2 + E
ok. but is that what you mean
