should i first multiply -4 4 and -8
sure you can do that
oh
nvx
yea this works but now i have a issue with it
yes?
maybe i didnt mention it but it should be "easier" for people who want to turn right and with this one its a bit harder to turn right
green is from the first task where it was -1/8x^2+2
so the original streets are straight lines and the task was to 2 new streets i already did the first one its the green in this picture now i need to make another one which is without a bending jerk
yea my bad, soryy
so you want an extremal point to be at x=0
then you probably cant use a cubic function as its not symmetric around x=0
(or any other odd function)
would f(x)=ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+f work?
try it

I don't understand this solution to show that the function is one-to-one
It seems like circular logic to me
A function is one-to-one iff f(x_1) = f(x_2) implies x_1 = x_2
Yes I know that definition but I don't understand how it's used
Well we first assume that g(x_1) = g(x_2) and work with that
and if we get x_1 = x_2, then that means g is injective
Yes but doesn't that only work to check the x axis?
You can also do this with a graph with a horizontal line test, since this graph is rather easy to draw
I know that, I just like to try to understand the explanations in the book
But what I wonder is why they don't just differentiate the function and see that that function is positive for all x
If x1 was not x2 then that would mean two different inputs which provide the same output, so not one one
But how does this prove that one input can't give 2 outputs?
Its a function, one input can never give 2 outputs

Just to confirm, when are we not allowed to use the Cauchy's integral formula to evaluate an integral?
when the hypotheses of cauchy's integral formula dont hold

going through my lecture slides
these were the only two i didn't have an answer in mind
ah okay, makes sense.
"Cardinality" is just the number of elements in a set
is null also the empty set?
lexitorius
That didn't work lol but you get the picture
$\emptyset = {}$
magic
You're built different
yes
But yeah your cardinality is just the number of elements in a set
aleph?
so basically, since there does not exist an element that is p(x) and (not) p(x) . S belongs to the special set of null?
aleph 1?
i gues
Yeah $|\mathbb{R}| = \aleph_1$
lexitorius
just trying to make sure I understand it correctly by typing it out
What's aleph_1? it was only written down in the slides, not expanded upon
It's basically a number denoting a type of infinity
I wouldn't be great at explaining it because I haven't worked with it much
ah okay. just gotta know that the cardinality of R is aleph huh.
and |N| is aleph_0?
lexitorius
thanks! I'll keep these in mind
And $\aleph_1$ or Aleph 1 is uncountable
lexitorius
And then you can keep going into stuff I don't understand lol
Yeah

why do we need more than base cases when doing strong induction
?
How do I know the thing im trying to prove needs 1 base case or 2 cases or even 3 and more?
Pretty sure base case is the same as normal induction
Just the assumption that it is true for all k_0<=i<=k
I think depending on the complexity of the statement you will need to show that the the statement works for more than one cases when it comes to strong induction according to my professor and book.
But the problem Im having is how do I know i need more than one case? Because when I solve a question and then check the answers they have used multiple base cases and the only explanation they give is
"There are 2 base cases that needs to be tested"
if you for example prove a formula for some recursive expression, then you need to apply the IH for lets say k-1 and k-2
now what if k is 2 for example
then you need to be able to apply the IH for both k=1 and k=0
so you have to show them both somehow
but you can't use the induction step for k=1 cause for k=1 the recursive formula doesn't even work
so you also need to show the base case k=1 separately

find the relationship between a and b
i factored n out and got sqrt(n)(a+b+1)
and i think it is obvious that a+b+1=0
but isn t that infinity times 0 in the limit?
and it is undefined
i just need this clarification

ugh
i need help
with 2 things
in the windows folder where is my pic
how do i do the first one?
Use the pythagorean theorem
idk how
Do you know what it is?
its like c squared and a squared and b squared
It involves those, but you need to be more specific
There's an equation involving those 3 terms that you need to know
idk]
Then you need to look in your notes again
All of these questions are just plugging numbers into that 1 equation
So you really need to know it
A & b are the lines that who are 90° to each other
b is the 15 one?
Sure
ok now what
Which makes a..
a is the 8 cm its a squared
idk the formula

I am confused on how to plug in the numb r
,rotate
Well when I do my answer is always wrong
So I don’t know if I am doing the fractions wrong
show work
firstly you're missing the
$$\red{-}\frac x2 +2$$
ℝamonov
Oh so it would be 3
Dont u just replace the x with the numbers given?
you didn't copy down the correct thing
Wait would it be a positive 4??
no
Ken_
if you're having difficulty don't skip ahead and try to follow my breakdown of the problem
if it was just
x/2, what would be the value of that when
x= -2?
3?
are you skipping ahead again?
I forgot how to do fractions kinda and I have a test about this tmrw
are you ignoring my questions?
Well wouldn’t you cross cancel or
are you ignoring my questions?
if it was just
x/2, what would be the value of that when
x= -2?
I asked that twice
Oh I didn’t see that
Well if it was x/2 then it would jsut be 1 if that’s what you mean
thats still wrong
So if it was -2 then it would be 3
are you skipping ahead again?
If it wasn't clear I was asking about the expression x/2 only, and was trying to heavily break down the problem
but subbing in x=-2 properly will get you
y = 3 if that's what you mean by saying 3
Ken_
all u need to do is replace the x with the given numbers
So it’s 3
No I am fine
ok
Yeah
Ok Nvm I’ll just start studying now thx
its -1 ok

how do I solve this problem:
Here's an idea that might help conceptualize implicit diff
You know the chain rule?
yeah f'(g(x)) * g'(x)
And how it's used when you're differentiating a function that has something other than x inside of it
You can sorta think of the variable y as a function of x
So if you want to find the derivative of y^3 with respect to x, you have to hit it with a "fake" chain rule, which is implicit differentiation
In doing so, you would generate 3y^2 as your "f'(g(x))"
And then dy/dx as your "g'(x)"
Since we don't actually know what the derivative of y itself is here, we just call it "dy/dx"
you mean g'(x)
Correct, thanks
Not even a fake chain rule really. That's actually exactly why implicit differentiation works
^
It just is the chain rule
I just feel like that connection is usually drawn implicitly (lol) when it's taught
I was never explicitly told it was just a chain rule so I had to figure that part out myself lol
what do we do with the 2x?
Find its derivative just like we would 2x in any other situation
Of course, we'd append our y drama to it
At least iirc
Unless I'm horribly mistaken
It does, it's a product of 2x and y^3
We would evaluate the product rule $\frac{d}{dx}f(x)g(x)$ where $f(x) = 2x$ and $g(x) = y^3$
lexitorius
Right, and then utilize the chain rule like you said
Cool thanks I haven't done it in a while lol
All good
Sorry, I'm about to be working so I can't help anymore but I think y'all got it
Close
The first term would become 2(3y^2)(dy/dx)
Then you'll want to also do the same to the other terms
So take the derivatives of xy and 15
So when we take the derivative of y, we're hitting it with a chain rule too
So $\frac{d}{dx} xy = x * \frac{dy}{dx} + 1 * y$
lexitorius
Where 1 is the derivative of x, and dy/dx is the derivative of y
Yeah, because xy is a product
The chain rule just comes up when we take the derivative of y
Since we're doing it in terms of x, we're doing a chain rule on the variable y itself
That's where I showed that idea for the first term
Essentially any time we differentiate a y variable when we're working with respect to x, we need to multiply our answer by dy/dx
So d/dx y = 1 * dy/dx
ok
<@&268886789983436800> - thanks
So should it look something like this?
Yup
Then all of that is equal to d/dx of 15, which is 0
Then if you solve for dy/dx (like you might solve for y or x in algebra), you'll get a solution for what dy/dx is
You'll want to get everything that's not dy/dx on one side, and everything else on the other
I'd start by subtracting y from both sides
Like this?
divide from both sides?
lexitorius
Perhaps that will help
Like this?
should I have included the 1 in the problem?
The numbers multiplied by 1?
You don't need to really show the 1
Since 1 * y is just y
hmm ok
because now my answer is completely different from the actual answer which is supposed to be this:
Wolfram isn't working with me so I'm not sure what ahppened

let width be x meters
then length is x+2 meters
area=width*length
A=x*(x+2)=x^2+2x
assume A=20 m^2
A=x^2+2x
20=x^2+2x
x^2+2x-20=0
from here on use a formula or complete the square
how do u solve
from that
i got
that
but idk how to do complete the square
like i got the x^2+2x-20=0
like
never done it before?
yes
nah ive done it
but like when i get 2 x vals
what one do i use
for like
the final
notice that x is a length
the one that makes sense in the context of the problem
negative lengths dont make too much sense
if somehow both values are valid, then they'll both be solutions

What’s the problem?
Is the triangle on the right the exact same but smaller?
No
Alright I’m not seeing any indication of a right angle
Yes
Does it ask you the question?
Or is it just the picture
Do they both have a the same angle?

Ill attach screenshots but the basic premise is:
there are three graphs that show the height of water in a bathtub over some time and you have to match the graph
graph a is a constant line going diagonally
graph b is a constant line straight right
graph c is a line that goes diagonally then straight then diagonally
option A = the bathtub is 3/4ths full
option B = the hot water is accidentally put in the bath so the tap is turned off to let the water cool before letting cool water into the bath
option C = the bath is filled to a steady rate
It thought the answer to this question is
a = C
b = A
c = B
however the textbook disagrees so now im confused.
Any welp would be nice, thank you
Your answer seems correct to me??
THATS WHAT IM SAYIN'
The answer key is probably wrong then
idk-
i feel like textbooks shouldnt make mistakes like that
oh okay then, dyk where i went wrong then? i am confused
you mixed up your lower case and upper case
heh?
theres no way graph a describes B though??
wait no i see what you mean-
but the question uses lowercase? so shouldnt teh answers be in capital??
The pic is the book solution
Right?
wait
they're the ones that mixed them up
oh thank god i thought i was stupid

You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs from 500 g coffee beans
You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 cups from 500 g coffee beans
Have you tried anything yet?
this question have i think about whole time
Have you tried anything yet?
yes i did
Any result?
that's what i've been trying to do but my brain can't figure it out so i need help
Incomplete question
oh wait
what do you mean
I mean the question is incomplete
Is there anything else or any other info relevant to the question?
my brainn
Its a basic question come on think!
ahhh 40/500
Also do you mean 1 cup of coffee?
or 1L?
then this must be 40L is it?
You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs from 500 g of coffee beans.
huh
i do not know how to do it
Think
my brain its holiday for me
If you can formulate a meaningful sentence then you can solve that question
But if you aren't willing to put any effort then neither am I
i tried so 60g beans for 1 liter so 60/500
because I'm thinking there's 60g for 1 litre and there's 500g of coffee beans so I'm thinking divide it by that so it gives a result
What is the question asking
You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs of 500 g coffee beans
And what was the other info
Students will sell the coffee in disposable mugs, each holding 0.2 L of coffee.
You need about 60 g of coffee beans to brew 1 L of coffee
these two i just send you is info
You need to show with calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs from 500 g coffee beans. this one is the question
thats too much coffee
I'll start over

I have this shape, it's given that AB | | DC, EF | | DC, AB = 6cm, DC=12cm and AE = 2DE
I gotta calculate EF's length
,rccw
apart from the basic stuff : AB | | EF | | DC, and marking ED as X and AE as 2X, I am not sure how to continue from here
similar shapes?
what is the property of a similar triangle
wdym property? I am just not a native english speaker
well how do you know if two triangles are similar?
if they have 2 pairs of identical angles
Angle AEF anf ADC are the same right?
yeah
so are all the other three angles in both ABEF and EFDC are same
so ABEF is similar to EFDC
yeah
when two shapes are similar the ratio between there corresponding sides is constant
from AE = 2DE we can find the ratio
yeah, the ratio should be 1:2 , but it doesnt seem to add up based on the answers that are included in the book we got(it should be 10cm, gives me 8cm)

I need help solving this equation
I’m stuck on dividing the derivatives
Also the (n k)
I’m new to derivatives
I only used [] instead of () to make it easier to tell derivatives from other things.

My question is on #47: Solve |x-3| ^2 -4|x-3| = 12. I found -3 by setting |x-3|^2 = 0. How do I find the other root?
,rccw
Why did you set it equation to zero?
aye aye
wassup
so
eh
hm
why did u
set
|x-3| to 0?
the qn
gave u a clue
let |x-3| be u
Sorry, I got busy, let me check my work
I didn't really have any reasoning behind it, I just tried it. Would setting x-3 to u and putting it into the quadratic formula give me the values for x?
I tried that, and it didn't work if I remember
Springsskateboard
Springsskateboard
Springsskateboard
now
u can either factorise
or
use formula
to solve
for u
and after u solved for u
that’s not
the final ans
cuz remember
what u allowed u to be
Add three to the answers?
wdym
alr first
solve the quadratic
and tell me
what x u got
yeye
take ur time
I got x = 6, and x = -2
no
u didn’t get x= 6 x=-2
you got u=6 u=-2
yeye
needa remember that
ye
alr so
you got the u values
remember what
u let u be?
we allowed u to be
|x-3|
so
$$u=6$$ OR $$u=-2$$
$$|x-3| = 6$$ OR $$|x-3|=-2$$
Springsskateboard
So x = 9 and 1?
$x-3 = 6$ or $x-3 = -6$
Springsskateboard
Springsskateboard
so this is what we get
solve this
and 2 x values
will be ur ans

Can anyone tell me where I've gone wrong? Book has a different answer
Can’t cancel (2x+5) and 1/2x like that
Oh, I see what you mean with the +c
but yeah you did the integral wrong also
Would I need to have a separate integral with 5/x^2+5 then?
you need to use arctan
yes
Wait why sqrt5
perhaps watch a video on arctan integrals
its a better explanation than i can give here

I need help understanding my teachers solution to this LDU factorization problem.
Am I crazy, or is his solution not majorly wrong?
While I'm here, let me make sure I understand how its supposed to work.
- Reduce the matrix to REF to create the upper matrix
1a) Keep track of the row operations performed - Perform the opposing operations (addition becomes subtraction, vice versa) in the opposing order on the identity matrix to create the lower matrix
- Divide reach row in the upper matrix by its leading coefficient. Those coefficients becomes the entires in the corresponding positions in the diagonal matrix

Just checking for understanding on this one:
Suppose $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ and $\lim_{h\to 0}[f(a+h)-f(a-0)]=0$. Is $f$ necessarily continuous at $a$?
ESAllhands
I think it isnt necessarily continuous since this is just stating that the limit exists and doesnt say anything about the value of f(a) (removable discontinuity could exists)
try drawing an example with a discontinuous function
I did
what did you find?
when you write f(a-0) is that meant to be read as f(a) or as a stupid notation for the left hand limit of f at a
oh - its probably obvious but that should have been an h and not a 0
oh
yeah sorry
should be f(a+h)-f(a-h)=0
What I found was that if we take h to be zero its continuous. Otherwise we're just looking at the function value from the left and right at a point. If its a constant function then its continuous and the statement seems fine.
I just dont know if I think that means it's necessarily continuous
right - this is similar to what I was thinking
f(a+h) = f(a-h) for all h
except, I hadnt considered the abs value so I wasnt coming up with a way for the difference to be 0
I like this
The best I had come up with was just to try to do something like a constant function with a removable discontinuity at a--but, that seemed too contrived
a removable discontinuity assigned* at a
1/x^2 for x not 0, whatever you want for x=0
I like that one too
So, I was on the right track, just a little lost. Thanks for the help! I will likely be back here in a bit 😄

for the second one
would it be my boxed answer?
if not , can someone explain the correct answer?
why do you think it's the right answer?
if you don't know, why did you choose it?
it's the correct answer btw
just curious what your thought process is
Well, A - B cannot be the same as B - A. Pretty sure this is in the context of sets. Not sure what I could plug into these to prove by example. but no matter what values/sets A or B are, if you subtract them in whichever order, you results of each order will be different. So A and B must be empty sets to produce the same result to fit that statement.
Please do enlighten me on the mathematical reasoning. This was somewhat just me trying to use "common sense", a shot in the dark answer.
ok
no, it's totally possible A - B = B - A
even if A and B are not empty sets
first of all, I was wrong. there are two correct answers
if A=B, then A-B=B-A
so, in set theory, A-B means removing anything that exists in B from A
for example, if A={2,3,4} and B={3,4,5}
A-B={2}
make sense?
Yes, I understand so far.
so, yeah the correct answer is A=B
this is wrong
when A⋂B=empty set, A-B=A, B-A=B
make sense?
Ah, okay. using the example you provided. I understand how it's A=B now.
thank you!
yeah, so the answer you thought was correct answer for II, is actually the answer to III
can you explain #3?
Can I use the same example you provided for that as well
or is there a different approach?
as I said if A-B=A, it means there's nothing in B that exists in A, so A minus B is still A
that means A and B have no overlap
pretty simple
if you like 5 different fruits and your brother likes 3 fruits and if you subtract your set of liked fruits with anything that your brother likes and you still get all 5 fruits, it means you and your brother don't like any fruit in common
right?
correct
that's it
set theory is really easy if you think about it from real-life perspective

,w derive x^9/(sqrt(x)+x)
yeah idk what i did wrong
ah you have a rogue low power term that first appears as x^2 on the right
Like the very right most bit of writing on the entire picture
that's I think the mistake
Yea it’s supposed to be an x^9

I need confirmation
on my math problem
How do I type it in math
It's about finding y and x intercept
I wanna know if it is right or wrong
Post a pic or write down your question
Latex?
Yep
dollar sign in front and end
Use the $ sign
Can you do an example in fractions?
$\frac{a}{b}$
$\frac{numerator}{denominator}$
if you can this pls
$/frac{x-3}{x+9}$
Null
I am finding the Y intercept here
You have your channel
Is it $/frac {0, -1/3}$
Null
\verb|\frac{write numerator here}{write denominator here}|
$$\frac{numerator}{denominator}$$
ℝamonov
follow the braces as we're writing them
Is it $\frac {0, -1/3}$
don't make adjustments on your own
Null
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
it'll probably be better to just draw it in paint so we can focus on the problem
read the latex #resources and play around in #bots later
Yes
\verb|y = \frac{x-3}{x+9}|
$$y = \frac{x-3}{x+9}$$
ℝamonov
You could just type (x-3)/(x+9) and we’d understand it
Alright. Finding the x intercept.
(x-3)/(x+9), where f(x) must be 0
0 = x-3
-x = -3 = 3
bad notation
Just like how bad I am at programming
don't write stuff like
-3 = 3
unless its part of something like a proof by contradiction
don't be lazy and write illegal stuff and do it properly with a new line
-x = -3
x = 3
yes, x = 3 means x = 3
Finding Y intercept in second question where X must be substitute to zero.
f(x) = (x+7)/(x-14)
f(0) = (0+7)/(x-14)
f(0) = (7) /(-14)
f(0) = (1) / (-2)
Finding X intercept in second question where f(x) must be zero.
f(x) = (x+7) / (x-14)
0 = x+7
-x = 7
x = -7
Finding Y intercept in third question where X must be substitute to zero.
f(x) = (2x)/(x+5)
f(0) = (2(0)) / (0+5)
f(0) = (0)/(5)
f(0) = 0
Finding X intercept in third question where f(x) must be zero.
f(x) = (2x)/(x+5)
0 = 2x
2x = 0
2x = 0
Finding Y intercept in fourthq uestion where X must be substitute to zero.
f(x) = (x-6)/(x-3)
f(0) = (0-6)/(x-3)
f(0) = (-6)/(-3)
f(0) = 2
Finding X intercept in fourth question where f(x) must be zero.
f(x) = (x-6)/(x-3)
0 = x-6
-x = -6
x = 6
Finding Y intercept in fifth question where X must be substitute to zero
f(x) = (2x+4)/(4x)
f(0) = (2(0)+4) / (4(0))
f(0) = (4)
f(0) = (4)/(1)
f(0) = 4
should be x=0 in the last line
you wrote 2x=0 twice
Careful you’re dividing by 0
Ah
how'd a 0 end up in the denom there
Our teacher told us that denominator can't be zero, and instead put number one.
4x where X must be zero
you don't have 4x in your f(x) = (2x+4)/4
You didn’t write x in the first line
Oh, sorry, re editted it.
well the function is undefined at 0
Division by 0 is undefined and you can’t just change it to 1
it has no y-interecept
What should I put it?
well the function is undefined at 0
it has no y-intercept
Is that so? In our previous lesson, he taught us that when there's nothing in denominator, we should put 1. For example (a^3)/(a^2)
So it's always undefined?
Pure
What If it is reversed as (a^2)/(a^3)?
Division by zero is always undefined yes
That would be 1/a
OoooooooOooh. I feel genius now. My mind must have messed up that as for denominator.
I mean, is this the answer on a^3/a^2?
So If there's no any value at numerator, I must always put one?
$\frac{a^2}{a^3} = a^{2-3} = a^{-1} = \frac{1}{a}$
Pure
