Yes

exotic radish
#

x-12 = 2x-36

#

Makes sense?

ruby meadow
#

Ok I kinda get it

#

1 sec let me solve it

exotic radish
#

Bet

#

AH got it!

ruby meadow
#

Yes got it

#

24

#

That correct

exotic radish
#

$x+x+\frac {x}{2}+\frac {x}{4} +1 = 100\
2x+\frac {2x}{4}+\frac {x}{4}+1 = 100\
\frac {8x+2x+x+4}{4} = 100\
\
\
\frac {11x+4}{4} = 100\
11x+4=400\
11x=400-4\
x=36$

Good job

ruby meadow
#

Thanks
Is there any way u could help me with a couple more

#

Your a great tutor

exotic radish
#

Let's go to dms if u wanted

#

Btw

#

This was the geese problem

#

The answer is 36

#

I tried doing this

sudden spade
#

The first bits of information just say the base is this

#

So we're looking at that middle region

topaz sinewBOT
#

@sleek ruin Has your question been resolved?

sudden spade
#

Hmm I get the same as u

sleek ruin
sudden spade
#

Yeah I mean ur integral to me seems logical but it isn't given as an option on that list

#

I'm guessing u haven't covered double integrals?

sleek ruin
#

Not to mention this is supposed go be done with a calculator

sleek ruin
sudden spade
#

My initial thought was double integrals

sleek ruin
#

your not supposed to do e^x - 1 because the area under e^x stops at x = 0

sleek ruin
#

1 is used to find the end of the definite integral

sudden spade
#

Alright

#

Nice job

neon iron
#

Hi, can anyone help me with this? I have taken the log of both sides of the equation and got (x+3)log2=(x-1)log6

neon iron
#

is the next step xlog(2)+3log(2)=xlog6-log6?

leaden tusk
#

that works, now solve for x

neon iron
#

This is the bit I am stuck on šŸ˜…

leaden tusk
#

get all terms with x in them to one side, and the rest to the other side

neon iron
#

so is it xlog2-xlog6=log6-3log2?

#

I feel like that's wrong

leaden tusk
#

you have a sign error, but you're close

neon iron
#

which one?

leaden tusk
#

take a look back at what you kept on the same side

#

you moved the xlog6 to the other side, and changed its sign

#

you moved the 3log2 to the other side, and changed its sign

neon iron
#

oh I thought if it changes side, the sign changes?

leaden tusk
#

it does

#

but

#

you kept the -log6 on the same side

#

and changed its sign

neon iron
#

ohhh

#

wait

#

is it xlog2+xlog6=log6+3log2

leaden tusk
#

no no, you only had one mistake before

leaden tusk
#

everything else was right

neon iron
#

oops

#

one second

#

xlog2+xlog6=log6-3log2

#

I am confusing myself

#

šŸ˜…

leaden tusk
#

and rewrite it on paper or something to make sure you're getting all your signs right

neon iron
#

okay

#

so the xlog6 moves to the left hand side?

leaden tusk
#

yep

neon iron
#

and 3log2 to the right?

leaden tusk
#

yep

neon iron
#

does the xlog6 come first on the right hand side? or does it not matter?

#

*the log6

leaden tusk
#

it doesn't matter, as long as you get the sign right

neon iron
#

I'm not sure what the signs are

#

bc if they change sides, doesnt that make them both minus?

leaden tusk
#

the ones you switched were positive, so yes, they would become negative

neon iron
#

ohh wait

#

is it xlog2+xlog6=3log2-log6

leaden tusk
#

you fixed your original error and made more lol

neon iron
#

lmao this is so hard over message 🤣

leaden tusk
neon iron
#

I'm so confused now haha

leaden tusk
#

where xlog(2) is positive, 3log(2) is positive, xlog(6) is positive, and -log(6) is negative

#

you kept xlog(2) on its side and log(6) on its side

#

therefore they should keep their signs

#

xlog(2) will stay positive, -log(6) will stay negative

#

you switched the sides of 3log(2) and xlog(6)

#

since they were both positive, they will now both be negative

neon iron
#

so -3log(2) and -xlog6

leaden tusk
#

yes, those will be negative

neon iron
#

xlog2-xlog6=-3log2-log6

leaden tusk
#

theere you go

#

now you can factor an x out of the left side

neon iron
#

by that, do you just mean take both x's of the right hand side?

#

or just one?

leaden tusk
#

it's the left hand side

#

you're just factoring an x out

#

if you had 6x+3x and factored an x out, you'd have x(6+3)

#

you're just taking it outside of both terms while multiplying the entire thing by x

neon iron
#

is it x(log2-log6)?

leaden tusk
#

yes

#

now you can solve for x

neon iron
#

how would you do that?

leaden tusk
#

the way you'd do it any other way

#

you have x(log(2)-log(6)) = -3log(2)-log(6)

#

it's just as if you had 6x=3 and you had to solve for x

#

all those logarithms are just numbers

neon iron
#

is it xlog10(3)?

leaden tusk
#

?

neon iron
#

ahh I am confused

neon iron
#

its fine, I'll have a read of that again and figure it out

I don't understand where the equation in blue came from

knotty ledge
#

$cos^{2}(\theta) + sin^{2}(\theta) = 1$

thorny flameBOT
#

iCaird

knotty ledge
#

Have you seen this equation before?

#

or is the x confusing you

unique tundra
junior nimbus
#

i have not seen that equation thats why

#

also the x is confusing me

unique tundra
#

sin(theta) = x on the top

#

so is sin^2(theta) = x^2

junior nimbus
#

sine of theta is equal to the length of the opposite side

#

yeah that makes sense

#

the x is the opposite side, right?

Hello how I do integral for (2x+1) x (x^2 + x -2)^-0.5

jade cobalt
#

2x+1 is the derivative of (x^2+x-2)

#

But I forgot how to do integral xd

restive inlet
#

try starting with substitution

#

like
u = x^2+x-2

jade cobalt
#

I didn’t learn the substitution way xd

#

Can’t do it normal way ?

restive inlet
#

wdym by "normal way"

#

$\int \frac{2x+1}{\sqrt{x^2 + x - 2}} \dd{x}$

thorny flameBOT
#

ā„amonov

jade cobalt
#

Listen our teacher didn’t taught us everything):

#

Due to lack of time

#

Or his teaching is bad ether way

#

And idk about substitutions

restive inlet
#

look up integration by substitution

#

it comes up quite a lot

jade cobalt
#

I did once before

#

But there stuff like

#

Lin or Len idk what it’s called

#

And stuff we don’t need

#

And some letter look like e

#

Some complex stuff

restive inlet
#

log? ln?

jade cobalt
#

I don’t really remember but ppl advices me to learn it

restive inlet
#

integration by substitution isn't exclusive to stuff with logs and exponentials

#

the principle can be applied in many situations including stuff like this

jade cobalt
#

Should I just learn the basics

jade cobalt
restive inlet
#

and if you know this principle, only then should you consider shortcuts

#

try starting with substitution
like
u = x^2+x-2

jade cobalt
#

Ok and how will this benefit me ?

#

2x+1 = u’ ?

restive inlet
#

yes

jade cobalt
#

ok and xd ?

restive inlet
#

wdym by xd?

jade cobalt
#

Don’t have any idea what to do with it

jade cobalt
restive inlet
#

do you know the basic structure of doing integration by substation?

jade cobalt
#

I forgot it

#

I tried to learn it before

restive inlet
#

look it up again

jade cobalt
#

Kk I don’t need to know Lin and e and stuff like this right

restive inlet
#

no, you don't need logs for this question

jade cobalt
#

I wonder why our teacher didn’t teach us this /:

#

I’ve been studying for days and I feel like no progress

#

Makes me really sad ):

restive inlet
#

since you recognised that

2x+1 is the derivative of (x^2+x-2)
so starting with
u = x^2+x-2
is a decent idea

#

that gets you
du/dx = 2x + 1
and/or
du = (2x+1) dx

#

and you can apply that to get your integral in terms of u

jade cobalt
#

I’ll go and see the integral by substitutions again

restive inlet
#

(and something that's simpler to integrate)

jade cobalt
#

And remember how it was xd

#

The problem is Arabic videos r little bit

#

And if I want to watch English there is a lot of complicated expressions I can’t understand ;-;

#

I’ll just go and try

#

Thx u

formula for cookies = Day * 2

Day 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5
cookies 2 | 6 | 12 | 20 | 30 (shown in total)

cookies gotten at the day (day, number 1, 2 | 2, 4 | 3, 6 | 4, 8 | 5, 10
how many would I have by day 50 in total?

knotty ledge
#

on day 1 you have 2 cookies. on day 2 you have 2 + 2*2 = 6 cookies. on day 3 you have 6 + 2*3 = 12 cookies. Do you see any pattern here?

lilac torrent
#

sorta

#

not rly tho

sturdy oracle
#

Well this seems to be a summation problem, right

#

$\sum_{n=1}^{50}2n$

#

I hate everything

thorny flameBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

sturdy oracle
#

Which is the same as

#

$2\sum_{n=1}^{50}n$

thorny flameBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

sturdy oracle
#

So use your arithmetic sum formula

#

$S_n = n\left(\frac{a_1 + a_n}{2}\right)$

mint perch
#

I am not understanding how to split up factorials and such

mint perch
#

My teacher wrote (n-1)! as (n-1)(n-2)!

#

Is it that (n-1)! goes all the way to infinity and it was written as (n-1)(n-2)! because the numerator had an (n-2)! to cancel out

pseudo bear
#

No, what does factorial mean?

#

@mint perch

mint perch
#

You just multiple stuff going down

pseudo bear
#

Right, so let's make it concrete.

#

Let's say n = 4.

#

What is (n - 1)!?

mint perch
#

3!

pseudo bear
#

Which is?

mint perch
#

6

pseudo bear
#

What is (n - 1)(n - 2)!?

mint perch
#

2

pseudo bear
#

No.

mint perch
#

6 i mean

pseudo bear
#

Right, so they're the same.

#

It can be seen more clearly here.

#

3! = 3 Ā· 2 Ā· 1
3 Ā· 2! = 3 Ā· 2 Ā· 1

#

3! is all the numbers from 1 to 3 multiplied.

#

2! is all the numbers from 1 to 2 multiplied, and then with 3 in there, it's all the numbers from 1 to 3 multiplied.

#

So, n(n - 1)! = n!

#

Does it make sense why?

mint perch
#

I think I just didn't see that they gave an n value on the bottom of the e looking thing

#

E

pseudo bear
#

Oh, that's a capital sigma.

#

Sigma for sum.

#

Ī£

#

Is that what you mean?

mint perch
#

yrd

#

yes

pseudo bear
#

Ī  is capital pi and does the same thing, except it's the product (pi for product) instead of sum.

mint perch
#

Could you help with tis problem

#

its originally infinity on top of summation and n=0 on bottom

pseudo bear
#

OK, so multiply the fractions.

mint perch
#

I spit up the 10 to (10)^2n and (10)^1

pseudo bear
#

Did you multiply the fractions?

mint perch
#

No sir

pseudo bear
#

OK, multiply them together.

mint perch
#

I thought we were suppose to reduce before multiplying

#

or cancel out the t erms

pseudo bear
#

You might as well have everything together so that you can reduce properly rather than reducing both, multiplying them, and reducing the product.

mint perch
#

but idk how to do it with the (2n+1)! and (2n+2)!

pseudo bear
#

Well, 2n + 2 is how many higher than 2n + 1?

mint perch
#

It seems to be 1 higher

pseudo bear
#

So, separate out the highest 1 factors from (2n + 2)!

mint perch
#

You mean i can just take out a 2 so 2(n+1) ?

pseudo bear
#

No.

#

Factorial is a product.

#

The things in the product are factors.

#

Like 1 Ā· 2 Ā· 3 Ā· 4 has factors 1, 2, 3, and 4.

#

(2n + 2)! has factors 1, 2, 3, 4, ⋯, 2n + 1, and 2n + 2.

#

What is the highest factor?

mint perch
#

4

pseudo bear
#

No.

mint perch
#

:

#

2n+2

pseudo bear
#

Right.

mint perch
#

oh

pseudo bear
#

So, you have 1 Ā· 2 Ā· 3 Ā· 4 ⋯ (2n + 1) Ā· (2n + 2)

mint perch
#

2n+2(2n+1)

pseudo bear
#

Separate out the highest one factor.

mint perch
#

And then i can cancel out the (2n+1)?

pseudo bear
#

1 Ā· 2 Ā· 3 Ā· 4 ⋯ (2n + 1) Ā· (2n + 2)
[1 Ā· 2 Ā· 3 Ā· 4 ⋯ (2n + 1)] and [(2n + 2)]

#

(2n + 1)! and (2n + 2).

mint perch
#

Ye

pseudo bear
#

No, that's incorrect.

mint perch
#

Lol sorry im dumb

pseudo bear
#

You didn't factor the powers of 10 correctly.

mint perch
#

I think im missing a 10 on the top

pseudo bear
#

Yes.

#

Then you can reduce the fraction and move the negative sign in front, where it can be eliminated due to the absolute value.

#

The sign is irrelevant because of the absolute value.

mint perch
#

I would

#

move the -1/3 before the limit right?

pseudo bear
#

What -1/3?

#

Where is the 3 from?

mint perch
#

nvm I evaluated (10)^3 as 30

#

mb

pseudo bear
#

Well, you didn't fully reduce the fraction.

mint perch
#

10/-1000

#

-1/100

pseudo bear
#

And, no you can't put that in front of the limit.

#

The absolute value sign has to be taken into consideration.

#

As I said, the absolute value makes the sign inside irrelevant.

mint perch
#

so I would put the 1/100

#

before the limit

pseudo bear
#

If you want to.

mint perch
#

It doesn't matter does it

#

Ok

pseudo bear
#

Well, what expression do you have now?

mint perch
#

lim as n approaches infinity of n+1/50

pseudo bear
#

OK, and what's the limit of that?

mint perch
#

infinity

pseudo bear
#

Right.

mint perch
#

So it diverges

pseudo bear
#

You're doing a series?

mint perch
#

yes

pseudo bear
#

Is this like the ratio test or something?

mint perch
#

Ya

#

How do you know all this tuff

#

I would forget in like a week

pseudo bear
#

Talking in here reminds me of it.

#

Like I see people asking about the ratio test, and then I look it up.

#

I saw it when I took the second calculus course, but that was a long while ago.

#

So I just refreshed my memory when others asked about ratio tests.

mint perch
#

Wow

#

I can't really remember what I did in the beginning of calc 2 and I'm taking it right now

pseudo bear
#

You can look back at a homework problem or two from earlier in your book if you want to refresh it.

mint perch
#

Ya but there is stuff like partial fraction decomposition, trig sub, trig integrals

pseudo bear
#

Yeah, the trigonometry stuff gets me because I don't remember much beyond basic trigonometry.

mint perch
#

Honestly I find all this stuff with limits and series way harder than that stuff though

#

You don't even use any of your fancy tricks to find integrals anymore

pseudo bear
#

Yeah, this is around the time when you learn power series and stuff.

#

Like taking a function and getting a series that calculates it.

#

There's integrals and then this later stuff like series divergence and getting a Taylor or Maclaurin series for a function.

mint perch
#

I believe that's what I am doing next

#

After my exam

pseudo bear
#

It's kind of interesting if you want to know how to calculate sine without a calculator, I guess.

mint perch
#

That is what my professor was going on about

pseudo bear
#

You get its power series, and you plug x into the first few terms, and you get an approximate answer.

mint perch
#

He was talking about how calculators only know how to +,-,*,/

pseudo bear
#

Yeah, some of the cheaper ones are like that.

#

Older CPUs.

#

I think, but I'm not sure, that they might have figured out how to do things like log and sine in circuitry rather than writing a program that only uses the basic four operations.

#

But I haven't really looked into it.

#

Log and exp are needed for things like arbitrary exponents.

#

On a calculator.

mint perch
#

Idk what arbitrary exponents are

pseudo bear
#

Oh, like any exponent you can think of.

#

Arbitrary means anything that works.

#

Like an arbitrary integer is any integer.

#

An arbitrary exponent is just some real number.

mint perch
#

Ok

#

surely there are handheld calculators that take derivates and limits right

pseudo bear
#

Yes, TI-89 and TI nSpire can.

mint perch
#

But we still have to do it by hand

south rose
#

I use Photomath

#

It can give you step by step solutions too with the paid version

pseudo bear
#

Yeah, doing it by hand is good.

#

You have to teach a computer a lot of tricks to get some integrals.

#

And there are some tricks that people know that computers don't yet.

mint perch
#

It seems like the expensive calculator could do all that?

pseudo bear
#

Well, derivatives are easy enough.

#

But not all integrals have nice expressions.

south rose
#

Very interesting

pseudo bear
#

No, I've heard of examples, but I don't remember them.

mint perch
#

Thanks for the help appreciate it. Hope to be good at math one day.

neon iron
#

guys

#

im strugglin with lhopitals

#

how is this 0 * (-infinity)?

#

i get ln(1) is 0

#

but how is tan(pi * x / 2) = - infinity?

wide igloo
#

Do you know the domain for tan or cot @neon iron

#

Remember than tan(x) is the same as sin(x)/cos(x)

#

And you can’t divide by 0 so tan(x) is undefined for all cos(x) = 0 right

wide igloo
#

Ye

neon iron
#

so that would evaluate to 1 / 0

#

at pi / 2

#

so thats undefined

wide igloo
#

Well

neon iron
#

does that mean its infinite?

wide igloo
#

cosx/sinx

#

since cot

neon iron
#

right

#

i got up to there, but after getting 1 / 0

#

i didnt know how that was - infinite

wide igloo
#

well it’s lim x-> 1^+ right

neon iron
#

right

#

approach from right

#

ahh

#

got it

#

thank u..

#

🄺

#

lots of info.. too know

#

does it work

#

if i make the problem into a fraction and evaluate like that?

#

like tan = 1 / cot?

wide igloo
#

For l’hr ye

neon iron
#

its the same?

#

kk imma just do that for the trig stuff

#

seems more intuitive

#

for lhopitals

#

thanks

bold tusk
#

Can someone Tell me if I have Done right ?

topaz sinewBOT
bold tusk
#

The question is

#

And my answer

vale jacinth
#

Correct

bold tusk
#

Can you please Tell me

#

How I would do this one

vale jacinth
bold tusk
#

But Where do I put the designations for edges and route

#

Ahh so > are the routes right

vale jacinth
#

Yeah

bold tusk
#

And the Numbers are the edges

vale jacinth
#

The order of vertices I passed

bold tusk
#

Okay, Thank you.

#

One more question

vale jacinth
#

Sure

bold tusk
#

Wouldn’t this be infinite

vale jacinth
#

No

#

You need to find 25^99 mod 24

#

Which equals 1^99=1 mod 24

#

So answer is 1 am

bold tusk
vale jacinth
#

a=b mod n means n divides a-b

bold tusk
#

Hmmm

vale jacinth
#

What you need to do

#

Is to prove yourself by definition that

#

a=b mod n, c=d mod n, imply ac=bd mod n

#

(Hint: write ac-bd as sum of two things)

bold tusk
#

Should what would my ac be in this case

#

And what would my bd be in this case

vale jacinth
bold tusk
#

(25-24)

vale jacinth
#

Just 25=1 mod 24 gives you 25^99=1^99=1 mod 24

bold tusk
#

Sorry bro, But I don’t get how I would write down the steps

#

To how I get my answer

vale jacinth
#

As a result by induction we have a=b mod n implies a^r=b^r mod n

#

Then plug in n=24, a=25, b=1

#

r=99

bold tusk
#

Okay, Thank you šŸ™šŸ¼

vale jacinth
#

Np

bold tusk
#

Have I Done right this one ?

What is the domain of this in interval form

topaz sinewBOT
fluid phoenix
#

what have you tried?

topaz sinewBOT
#

@vapid root Has your question been resolved?

vapid root
fluid phoenix
#

that's correct but you can simplify that further

vapid root
#

Can you show me please how to do it

thorny flameBOT
vapid root
#

[-4,4]?

fluid phoenix
#

now can you express, [-4,4] - {2} as an union of 2 intervals

vapid root
#

But we also we can't have -2
[-4,4]-{-2,2}

fluid phoenix
#

no

clear kindle
#

Wait

fluid phoenix
#

its x^2 not x in the denominator

clear kindle
#

Yeah my bad

vapid root
fluid phoenix
#

cuz that'd be easier to do

vapid root
#

So that's the answer?

fluid phoenix
#

it is the answer yes

vapid root
#

Someone from another server told me this
[-4, -2) U (2,4]

fluid phoenix
#

but you can express that as union of 3 intervals

fluid phoenix
#

at least its incomplete

vapid root
#

he edited and now gave this
[-4, -2) U (2,4] U (-2,2)

fluid phoenix
#

šŸ—æ

#

wait

vapid root
#

Oh alright

fluid phoenix
#

nvm

#

its correct now

vapid root
#

Oh ok

#

thanks for the help

fluid phoenix
#

this is how you express it as an union [-4, -2) U (2,4] U (-2,2)

#

did you understand though?

yes,ty

#

if u square a complex number

#

that means modulus is squared

#

so mod is now 4 instead of 2

#

and it means each of the angles are doubled too, right?

#

but im confused how that works

#

its a hexagon.... if you double all the angles uh i have no clue how that would work?

fluid phoenix
topaz sinewBOT
#

@topaz lynx Has your question been resolved?

topaz lynx
#

i still dont understand 😦

#

wont it just make a mess of criss crossed points

fluid phoenix
#

it's theta that doubles not phi

marsh mortar
#

give me a sec to read

#

So the first vertex $$\sqrt{3} + j = 2e^{\frac{j\pi}{3}}$$

thorny flameBOT
#

azeem321

marsh mortar
#

The general form for the six vertices are $z=2e^{\frac{j\pi k}{3}}$ for $k \in {1,2,3,...6}$

thorny flameBOT
#

azeem321

marsh mortar
#

Now just square the general form

#

and split into triangles or something to find the area of the hexagon

topaz lynx
#

oh wait maybe i get it

marsh mortar
#

when k=1 and you square it, you get 4cis(2pi/3)

#

when k=2 and you square it, you get 4cis(4pi/3)

#

when k=3 and you square it, you get 4cis(6pi/3)

#

We know a shape forms a hexagon, if the distance from a centre point (the origin) is the equal

#

and

#

the angle between each line segment is constant

topaz lynx
#

heres what im tryna do rn and its not working lmao

#

im tryna understand what graphically happens to the points

#

doesn't point 4 end up where point 1 is???

#

point 4 is 210 degrees

#

7/3pi

#

uh that dont seem right

#

it should be idk

#

so point 4 when you square it

#

(210 x 2) - 360 = 60 degrees????

#

but point 1, 30 x 2 = 60

marsh mortar
#

We've both wrongly assumed the new figure forms a hexagon

#

It doesn't

topaz lynx
#

yh thats my issue, i thought it wouldn't

#

i had trouble visualizing how it would

marsh mortar
#

why dont you keep on with this

#

when k=1 and you square it, you get 4cis(2pi/3)
when k=2 and you square it, you get 4cis(4pi/3)
when k=3 and you square it, you get 4cis(6pi/3)

#

and see what shape it forms

topaz lynx
#

oh well it just makes a triangle thing

marsh mortar
#

yh

topaz lynx
#

equlateral triang

#

e

#

because the points overlap

#

is there any mathematical approach to this though?

#

imagine if we didnt start with a hexagon but an octagon

#

and you squared each of those points

#

how do we predict how many points the new shape will have?

#

because in an exam i dont wanna be drawing this out

#

in here, it seems to be half but idk if thats co incidence, i could try it with octagon in a min but wondering if there is something algebraic

#

ig if you double each of the angles

#

its gonna half the amount of points, that kinda makes sense? is it always the case?

#

wonder what happens if i double this triangle

#

makes a differently oriented triangle if i double that

marsh mortar
#

If you experiment with it, I am sure you could find a pattern. However, is it a good use of time? I guess the examiner just expected the candidate to square all the vertices like above, notice that the 6 vertices form 3 vertices after the transformation because some are identical and then proceed to find the area of the triangle

topaz lynx
#

tbf that was an easier approach tbh lol

#

rather than thinking graphical angles just square the points and plot on a sketch

#

alright thanks

timid summit

#

y varies inversely as x means y=k/x

#

Insert values of y and x to find k which is constant

#

Then use old k and new x to find new y

timid summit
#

ok

#

yeah I didnt knaow what inversly ment

#

so yould I subtract 5 or divide by 5

#

in the first equation

heavy parrot
#

/ means divide

#

5=k/5

timid summit
#

so it would be k=5/5

heavy parrot
#

no no

timid summit
#

I would multiply 5 on each side

heavy parrot
#

if 5 is dividing on one side when we move it to other side we multiply

#

Yes

#

5*5=k

timid summit
#

so k would be 30

heavy parrot
#

no

#

:l

#

5*5=25

timid summit
#

25 sorry

#

lol

heavy parrot
#

I can't tell if ur trolling lol

timid summit
#

lmao

#

im dumb lol

heavy parrot
#

agreed

timid summit
#

damn 😦

heavy parrot
#

anyway final answer would be y=25/45
Simplified would be y=9/5

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

#

Could anyone help me to find a special solution to the homogeneous case? I tried several things like x^2 and x^3 but didn't work out. Is there some kind of special trick to doing this that I'm unaware of??

median oak
#

🄺

vernal vale
#

how about power series thonk

#

is that overkill

#

that they say polynomial makes me want to try it

median oak
#

probably and I'm not sure how to do that...

vernal vale
#

assume y can be written as a power series

#

so $y(x) = \sum _0 ^\infty a_n x^n$

thorny flameBOT
#

jan Niku (Shuri for Honorable)

median oak
#

k, I'm gonna try(I thought it would be a simple guess

vernal vale
#

it probably is

#

im just bad at ode KEK

#

well, its probably like some form

#
 
(t^2 - 2)*diff(y(t), t) - y(t)*(2*t - 2) + (- t^2 + 2*t)*diff(y(t), t, t) == 0
 
>> ySol(t) = dsolve(ode)
 
ySol(t) =
 
C1*t^2 + C2*exp(t)```
#
 
ySol(t) =
 
(t + 2)/(t - 2) - t^2/(t - 2) + C1*t^2 + C2*exp(t)
#

heres the final answer, if it helps

:0

vernal vale
#

you need real help lol

#

i mean from someone who knows what that means beyond recognizing barely the form

#

maybe

#

maybe you figured it out though

median oak
#

yeah I think I know how to solve this one,but I have another question so I figured I'd just ask it here:

edgy frigate
#

The hint definitely seems to me to suggest to try a power series to find one solution from which you can find the general solution by possibly reduction of order to find the second independent solution and then variation of parameters for particular solution.

median oak
#

Well technically it's not a "question", because I got stuck in calculations again in the first method the prof is asking us to use, but I'm not sure what the second method he is referring to....?

median oak
median oak
vernal vale
#

isnt that just undetermined coefficients

median oak
#

should I convert it to cost instead

vernal vale
#

well if it were me

#

you can guess what method i would use

median oak
#

I'm sorry the prof only mentioned undetermined coefficients for five minutes

#

and I

#

I'm not sure what to do

vernal vale
#

first you need the solution of the homogeneous problem

#

i remember this

#

,w y'''-2y'+4y=0

thorny flameBOT
median oak
#

fuck I think I calculated the eigenvalues and vectors wrong

#

give me a sec

#

oh wait, it's correct, but I didn't simplify things

#

The instructor only covered one way to solve nth order ODE, which is using the exponential of the Jordan block but I couldn't calculate it(my attempt as above), so I'm a lil stuck

# eternal viper sorry I don't understand your question. Where did I mess up?

From this the cases to consider become clear.
For alpha = 4, it diverges.
For alpha = 2, it diverges.
For alpha not equal to 2 or 4, the first integral converges to 2pi/(4-alpha), and we only need to look at the second. This converges if 2 - alpha < 0, i.e 2 < alpha.
So the integral converges if 2 < alpha < 4, alpha > 4

whats the method to do this

topaz sinewBOT
mellow venture
#

take derivative first

#

then equate it to zero

#

then find zero values

Could someone help me with this please

topaz sinewBOT

#

D

#

Cuz it has to be a whole number multiple

#

of the sum of the numbers in the ratio

neon iron
#

ohh

neon iron
silver valve
#

you can assume that the actual number of red and blue marbles are 7x and 4x respectively for some x
then total number of marbles is 7x + 4x = 11x
since 11 is a factor, it must be a multiple of 11

mild pewter
#

yes

neon iron
#

ohh

#

thank you

I am not so good with these questions

#

Can we treat it like a normal x^2 function

#

In which we know the function will be increasing from x=0

#

So why they said that $x_0>3$?

thorny flameBOT
#

azeem321

marsh mortar
#

Shouldn't it be $x_0>0$

thorny flameBOT

@marsh mortar Has your question been resolved?

sudden spade
#

Your thinking about positivity they are talking about monotonically increasing/decreasing

#

You need to show that if $x_0=3$ then $x_{n+1}-x_n > 0$

,w graph (x^2+6)/5

#

It doesn't look like that. 1) It is not continuous we are dealing with a sequence. 2) It's not a function it's a recurrence relation. In a function we don't have a dependence on the previous term. In a recurrence relation you do.

#

A good example of this is $a_{n+1}=3a_n$

āœ…

sudden spade

Let $a_0 = 1 \Rightarrow a_1 = 3 \cdot a_0 \Rightarrow a_1 = 3$ doing the same for $a_2,a_3..$ you get $a_0 = 1, a_1 = 3, a_2 = 9,a_3=27$

thorny flameBOT
sudden spade
#

Which is clearly not the same as $f(x)=3x$, it is actually $f(x) = 3^x$

thorny flameBOT

Does this make sense so far?

@marsh mortar Has your question been resolved?

azeem321

sudden spade
#

Alright nice

#

Anyways back to the question we need to prove this function is increasing. In other words the $a_{n+1}$ term is bigger than the $a_n$ term

thorny flameBOT
sudden spade
#

And we need to show this is true for all n if $a_0=3$

thorny flameBOT

#

hm maybe induction?

So generally

#

a=.05

#

Sure, ok

#

But where is the .025 coming from

#

Is there a table to see this stuff?

#

Is it just made up and is actually a little prank, a little jape by some old mathematician?

I followed the video guide to the dotted i and the crossed t

ā€œSample of thirtyā€

Problem is reading

tawdry chasm

? Those words are in what you sent

tawdry chasm
#

The sample size is 128

#

With a mean of 118.1

#

StnDev of 33.17

#

Went through the formulas to make sure I didn't miss a parenthesis (didn't), and made sure there wasn't a typo (there wasn't)

pulsar falcon

Sample size is not 128

#

Like I said

30 was written as "thirty", and my eyes glanced over it every time

steady vale
#

hello i need help idk where to start tbh but

#

i have this idk if it's right

#

y=-18(-3+6)(-3+4)

#

so far

#

idk what to do with it to make it into standard form

#

idk if i maybe did something wrong either

vale jacinth
vernal vale
#

lip catThink

vale jacinth
steady vale
#

i don't get it

#

huh

vernal vale
#

use a system of equations

#

LIP is easy but its uhh

#

conceptual

#

start with Ax^2+Bx+C=y

#

do you see how this gives you 3 equations of 3 unknowns from your given information?

steady vale
#

idek bruh i just know i use y=a(x-p)(x-q) then convert it to y=ax^2+bx+c

vernal vale
#

sure, start there

#

lets start at Y=A(x-p)(x-q)

#

what are p and q?

#

notice you are given two roots

steady vale
#

-6 and -4

#

since they are the zeros

#

right

#

?

vernal vale
#

okay so Y=A(x+4)(x+6)

#

how do we find A

steady vale
#

idk how to explain it but we use the y value of the ordered pair that's not a zero

vernal vale
#

okay

steady vale
#

here it's

#

-18

vernal vale
#

(-3, -18) is the point

steady vale
#

so sub -3 for x and -18 for a?

vernal vale
#

(-3, -18) "Being on the parabola" means that if you plug in -3 for x, youll get -18 for y

steady vale
#

ohh

#

so

#

-18 = a(-3+6)(-3+4)

vernal vale
#

sounds good

#

so whats A

steady vale
#

idek

#

😭😭

vernal vale
#

šŸ‘€

steady vale
#

i have no

#

clue

vernal vale
#

how do you solve an equation

#

youve picked a very bizarre place to give up seeing as all the hard work is done

#

$-18 = a(-3+6)(-3+4)$

thorny flameBOT
#

jan Niku (join us for @pomo)

vernal vale
#

what can we simplify?

#

anything just numbers?

steady vale
#

the paranthesiss equations

#

i think

vernal vale
#

what do they become?

steady vale
#

3 and 1

#

so

#

$-18=a(3)(1)$

thorny flameBOT
steady vale
#

so

vernal vale
#

alright

#

what now?

steady vale
#

-6

vernal vale
#

-6 what?

steady vale
#

is a

vernal vale
#

cool

#

whats our polynomial then?
