#

should i first multiply -4 4 and -8

patent tartan
#

sure you can do that

hasty tide
#

288a=4 and then 4/288 right?

#

then a would be a=72

patent tartan
#

(-4)(4)(-8) = 128

#

$128a = 4$

hasty tide
#

oh

woven radishBOT
hasty tide
#

i did something wrong

#

a=1/32

patent tartan
#

right

#

,w plot (1/32)(x-4)(x+4)(x-8)

hasty tide
#

yea this works but now i have a issue with it

patent tartan
#

yes?

hasty tide
#

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

patent tartan
#

wdym by easier to turn right

#

thats why i asked if there were any restrictions

hasty tide
#

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

hasty tide
patent tartan
#

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)

hasty tide
#

would f(x)=ax^5+bx^4+cx^3+dx^2+ex+f work?

patent tartan
#

try it

covert thistle
#

I don't understand this solution to show that the function is one-to-one

covert thistle
#

It seems like circular logic to me

crystal rune
#

A function is one-to-one iff f(x_1) = f(x_2) implies x_1 = x_2

covert thistle
#

Yes I know that definition but I don't understand how it's used

crystal rune
#

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

covert thistle
#

Yes but doesn't that only work to check the x axis?

bright burrow
covert thistle
#

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

bright burrow
covert thistle
#

But how does this prove that one input can't give 2 outputs?

bright burrow
#

Its a function, one input can never give 2 outputs

covert thistle
#

Ah, I must've missed that part

#

That explains it, thanks

slow fable
devout snowBOT
slow fable
#

going through my lecture slides

#

these were the only two i didn't have an answer in mind

midnight dirge
#

i think

#

the first is null

#

its saying

#

x and ~x

#

which is never

#

or

#

{}

slow fable
#

ah okay, makes sense.

spare zealot
#

"Cardinality" is just the number of elements in a set

slow fable
#

is null also the empty set?

spare zealot
#

So the cardinality of the set S = {1, 2, 3, B, H} is 5

#

Yes

#

$\emptyset = {}$

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

spare zealot
#

That didn't work lol but you get the picture

midnight dirge
#

$\emptyset = {}$

woven radishBOT
midnight dirge
#

magic

spare zealot
#

You're built different

midnight dirge
#

yes

spare zealot
#

But yeah your cardinality is just the number of elements in a set

midnight dirge
#

aleph?

slow fable
#

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?

midnight dirge
#

aleph 1?

spare zealot
#

Yeah $|\mathbb{R}| = \aleph_1$

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

slow fable
#

just trying to make sure I understand it correctly by typing it out

midnight dirge
#

i havent learnt this but yay

slow fable
#

What's aleph_1? it was only written down in the slides, not expanded upon

spare zealot
#

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

slow fable
#

ah okay. just gotta know that the cardinality of R is aleph huh.

midnight dirge
#

smallest uncountable

#

no

#

aleph 1

#

aleph 0 is countable

#

countable inf

slow fable
#

and |N| is aleph_0?

midnight dirge
#

like natural numbers

#

yes

#

or rational numbers

spare zealot
#

Basically $\aleph_0$ or "Aleph-Null" is countable infinity

#

Yup

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

midnight dirge
#

if i guess correctly~

#

hahaha

slow fable
#

thanks! I'll keep these in mind

spare zealot
#

And $\aleph_1$ or Aleph 1 is uncountable

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

spare zealot
#

And then you can keep going into stuff I don't understand lol

midnight dirge
#

both r infinities tho

valid axle
#

why do we need more than base cases when doing strong induction

valid axle
#

?

#

How do I know the thing im trying to prove needs 1 base case or 2 cases or even 3 and more?

prime egret
#

Pretty sure base case is the same as normal induction

#

Just the assumption that it is true for all k_0<=i<=k

valid axle
#

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"

stone stump
#

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

ugh

devout snowBOT
thin gulch
#

i need help

#

with 2 things

#

in the windows folder where is my pic

#

how do i do the first one?

tall knoll
#

Use the pythagorean theorem

thin gulch
#

idk how

tall knoll
#

Do you know what it is?

thin gulch
#

its like c squared and a squared and b squared

tall knoll
#

It involves those, but you need to be more specific

#

There's an equation involving those 3 terms that you need to know

thin gulch
#

idk]

tall knoll
#

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

thin gulch
#

ik square roots and squared numbers

#

i dont know where a and b are?

ornate cloud
#

A & b are the lines that who are 90° to each other

thin gulch
#

b is the 15 one?

ornate cloud
#

Sure

thin gulch
#

ok now what

ornate cloud
#

Which makes a..

thin gulch
#

a is the 8 cm its a squared

ornate cloud
#

Yeah

#

And if you put a and b in the formula

thin gulch
#

idk the formula

tall knoll
#

I've given you the name

#

If you can't find it, look it up

I am confused on how to plug in the numb r

#

Just substitute the x in the equation with the x in the column

#

And find y

small plover

good evening

#

any tips how to be good at maths?

woven radishBOT
shy hearth
#

Well when I do my answer is always wrong

#

So I don’t know if I am doing the fractions wrong

winter patrol
#

show work

shy hearth
winter patrol
#

firstly you're missing the
$$\red{-}\frac x2 +2$$

woven radishBOT
#

ℝamonov

shy hearth
#

Oh so it would be 3

winter patrol
#

no

#

would you be able to simplify just
x/2 when x= -2?

whole wraith
#

Dont u just replace the x with the numbers given?

winter patrol
#

you didn't copy down the correct thing

shy hearth
#

Wait would it be a positive 4??

winter patrol
#

no

woven radishBOT
winter patrol
#

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?

shy hearth
#

3?

winter patrol
#

are you skipping ahead again?

shy hearth
#

I forgot how to do fractions kinda and I have a test about this tmrw

winter patrol
#

are you ignoring my questions?

shy hearth
#

Well wouldn’t you cross cancel or

winter patrol
#

are you ignoring my questions?

shy hearth
#

I don’t see the question?

#

I only see you went you typed the Ken_

shy hearth
#

So I am confused what you mean -

winter patrol
#

if it was just
x/2, what would be the value of that when
x= -2?

#

I asked that twice

shy hearth
#

Oh I didn’t see that

#

Well if it was x/2 then it would jsut be 1 if that’s what you mean

whole wraith
#

thats still wrong

shy hearth
#

So if it was -2 then it would be 3

winter patrol
#

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

woven radishBOT
whole wraith
#

all u need to do is replace the x with the given numbers

shy hearth
#

So it’s 3

whole wraith
#

yes now u solved the -2 one?

#

do u want to go to the 0 one

shy hearth
#

No I am fine

whole wraith
#

ok

shy hearth
#

I said 3 earlier so

whole wraith
#

its because he asked u whats -2/2

#

and its -1

shy hearth
#

Ok Nvm I’ll just start studying now thx

whole wraith
#

its -1 ok

glass bison
#

how do I solve this problem:

devout snowBOT
glass bison
#

implicit derivatives

#

I still somehow struggle so badly on implicit derivatives

spare zealot
#

Here's an idea that might help conceptualize implicit diff

#

You know the chain rule?

glass bison
#

yeah f'(g(x)) * g'(x)

spare zealot
#

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"

wooden wraith
spare zealot
#

Correct, thanks

wooden wraith
#

Not even a fake chain rule really. That's actually exactly why implicit differentiation works

spare zealot
#

^

wooden wraith
#

It just is the chain rule

spare zealot
#

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

glass bison
#

what do we do with the 2x?

spare zealot
#

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

wooden wraith
#

Oh wait no, sorry, that isn't right

#

You'd use the product rule

spare zealot
#

I forgot if product rule applies or not

#

OKay cool my mistake

wooden wraith
#

It does, it's a product of 2x and y^3

spare zealot
#

We would evaluate the product rule $\frac{d}{dx}f(x)g(x)$ where $f(x) = 2x$ and $g(x) = y^3$

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

wooden wraith
#

Right, and then utilize the chain rule like you said

spare zealot
#

Cool thanks I haven't done it in a while lol

wooden wraith
#

All good

#

Sorry, I'm about to be working so I can't help anymore but I think y'all got it

spare zealot
#

Yeah if they have more questions about it I should be good now

#

Thanks

glass bison
#

ok

#

so the first side would be 2(3y^2)?

spare zealot
#

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

glass bison
#

x+y?

#

and 15 would be 0 right?

spare zealot
#

So when we take the derivative of y, we're hitting it with a chain rule too

#

So $\frac{d}{dx} xy = x * \frac{dy}{dx} + 1 * y$

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

spare zealot
#

Where 1 is the derivative of x, and dy/dx is the derivative of y

glass bison
#

huh

#

isn't this the product rule?

spare zealot
#

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

glass bison
#

ok

spare zealot
#

<@&268886789983436800> - thanks

glass bison
#

So should it look something like this?

spare zealot
#

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

glass bison
#

so how do I move all of this

#

like which one goes first?

spare zealot
#

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

glass bison
#

Like this?

spare zealot
#

Yup

#

Now what can you do to separate y' from everything else on the left side?

glass bison
#

divide from both sides?

spare zealot
#

Close, let's employ the distributive property

#

Recall that $(ab + ac) = a(b + c)$

woven radishBOT
#

lexitorius

spare zealot
#

Perhaps that will help

glass bison
#

Like this?

spare zealot
#

Exactly

#

Now you could divide both sides by (2(3y^2)+x) to get y' on its own

glass bison
#

should I have included the 1 in the problem?

spare zealot
#

The numbers multiplied by 1?

#

You don't need to really show the 1

#

Since 1 * y is just y

glass bison
#

hmm ok

#

because now my answer is completely different from the actual answer which is supposed to be this:

spare zealot
#

Wolfram isn't working with me so I'm not sure what ahppened

let width be x meters
then length is x+2 meters

#

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

What’s the problem?

Is the triangle on the right the exact same but smaller?

dire thunder
#

No

proper drum
#

Alright I’m not seeing any indication of a right angle

dire thunder
#

Yes

proper drum
#

Does it ask you the question?

#

Or is it just the picture

#

Do they both have a the same angle?

Ask yourself what do you know about the 2 triangles

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

rotund heron
#

Your answer seems correct to me??

coral wolf
#

THATS WHAT IM SAYIN'

rotund heron
#

The answer key is probably wrong then

coral wolf
#

idk-

#

i feel like textbooks shouldnt make mistakes like that

#

oh okay then, dyk where i went wrong then? i am confused

winter patrol
#

you mixed up your lower case and upper case

coral wolf
#

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??

rotund heron
#

The pic is the book solution

rotund heron
winter patrol
#

wait

coral wolf
#

no they are right but the book mixed up the capitals

#

i think

winter patrol
#

they're the ones that mixed them up

coral wolf
#

oh thank god i thought i was stupid

rotund heron

#

thanks that was a bit of a stress moment for me ngl

spark ledge
#

how would you go about solving this

prime egret
#

Well consider y=1/(1-x)

#

then consider y’

spark ledge
#

wdym y=1/1-x

prime egret
#

$y=\frac{1}{1-x}$

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

how does that relate to the question though

#

im a little confused

prime egret
#

What’s $(1-x)^{-1}$

#

Using binomial theorem

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

1/1-x

prime egret
#

Fine

#

Let’s do it another way

#

Call $S_{\infty}=1+2x+3x^2+…}$

#

ok?

prime egret
#

Have you done it?

spark ledge
#

like the question?

prime egret
spark ledge
#

im not sure what it means

#

do you want me to get the formulas

#

and then just plug in the values

prime egret
#

$S_{\infty}=1+2x+3x^2+…$

woven radishBOT
prime egret
#

The sum that we want

spark ledge
#

1/1-x + x/1-x ??

prime egret
#

$xS_{\infty}=x(1+2x+3x^2+…)$

woven radishBOT
prime egret
#

$xS_{\infty}=x+2x^2+3x^3+…$

#

Now consider S_infty - xS_infty

woven radishBOT
prime egret
#

$S_{\infty} - xS_{\infty} = (1+2x+3x^2 +4x^3+…) - (x+2x^2+3x^3+…)$

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

oh

#

would it be smth like

#

1/1-x - x/1-x - 1/1-x^2 -...

prime egret
#

How did you get that

spark ledge
#

kind of guessed

#

im not rlly sure what you want me to do here

prime egret
#

$(1+2x+3x^2 +4x^3+…) - (x+2x^2+3x^3+…)$

#

What is this

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

1+x+x^2+x^3+...

prime egret
#

Yes

#

And what is that

#

$1+x+x^2+x^3+...$

woven radishBOT
prime egret
#

Is a certain type of series

spark ledge
#

geometric progression

prime egret
#

Yes

#

So $1+x+x^2+x^3+... = \frac{a}{1-r} = \frac{1}{1-x}$

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

yup

prime egret
#

$S_{\infty} - xS_{\infty} =\frac{1}{1-x}$

woven radishBOT
prime egret
#

Solve for S_inf

spark ledge
#

$S{\infty} =\frac{1}{1-x}+xS{\infty}$

woven radishBOT
#

rarzzzzzz

spark ledge
#

this?

prime egret
#

No

#

$S_{\infty}(1 - x)=\frac{1}{1-x}$

#

This

woven radishBOT
spark ledge
#

y is it that

prime egret
#

S_inf is a common factor

You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs from 500 g coffee beans

severe merlin
#

You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 cups from 500 g coffee beans

umbral raft
#

Have you tried anything yet?

severe merlin
#

this question have i think about whole time

umbral raft
#

Have you tried anything yet?

severe merlin
#

yes i did

umbral raft
#

Any result?

severe merlin
#

that's what i've been trying to do but my brain can't figure it out so i need help

severe merlin
#

oh wait

severe merlin
umbral raft
#

I mean the question is incomplete

#

Is there anything else or any other info relevant to the question?

severe merlin
#

yes

#

You need about 60 g of coffee beans to brew 1 L of coffee

umbral raft
#

Its the same as the other question I helped ya with

#

Apply the same logic

severe merlin
#

my brainn

umbral raft
#

Its a basic question come on think!

severe merlin
umbral raft
#

or 1L?

severe merlin
#

1l

#

no

severe merlin
#

You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs from 500 g of coffee beans.

umbral raft
#

catThimc huh

severe merlin
#

i do not know how to do it

umbral raft
#

Think

severe merlin
#

my brain its holiday for me

umbral raft
#

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

severe merlin
#

i tried so 60g beans for 1 liter so 60/500

umbral raft
#

How

#

Better question: why?

#

why would it be 60/500

severe merlin
#

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

umbral raft
#

Yes

#

that is, 500/60

severe merlin
#

so it will be 8.3

#

so 8.3*40?

umbral raft
#

What is the question asking

severe merlin
#

You must show by calculation that the students can brew coffee for about 40 disposable mugs of 500 g coffee beans

umbral raft
#

And what was the other info

severe merlin
#

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

umbral raft
#

🧍‍♀️ wait what

#

Did you just mix the two questions

#

or was it one all this time

severe merlin
#

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

umbral raft
#

thats too much coffee
I'll start over

severe merlin
#

ok

#

fine i just skip this question

restive river
#

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

gleaming socket
#

,rccw

woven radishBOT
restive river
gleaming socket
#

similar shapes?

restive river
#

didnt learn to use similar shapes with such a shape

#

only with triangles

gleaming socket
#

what is the property of a similar triangle

restive river
#

wdym property? I am just not a native english speaker

gleaming socket
#

well how do you know if two triangles are similar?

restive river
#

if they have 2 pairs of identical angles

gleaming socket
#

Angle AEF anf ADC are the same right?

restive river
#

yeah

gleaming socket
#

so are all the other three angles in both ABEF and EFDC are same

#

so ABEF is similar to EFDC

gleaming socket
#

when two shapes are similar the ratio between there corresponding sides is constant

#

from AE = 2DE we can find the ratio

restive river
#

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)

Why did you set it equation to zero?

vivid cliff
#

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

trail cloud
#

Sorry, I got busy, let me check my work

vivid cliff
#

yeye

#

npnp

#

take ur time

trail cloud
#

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

vivid cliff
#

yeye

#

it should work

#

just try

#

cuz now u have

#

$|x-3|^2 -4|x-3| = 12$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

vivid cliff
#

move the 12 over

#

to the left side

#

$|x-3|^2 -4|x-3| -12 =0$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

vivid cliff
#

replace

#

|x-3| with u

#

$u^2 -4u-12=0$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

vivid cliff
#

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

trail cloud
#

Add three to the answers?

vivid cliff
#

wdym

#

alr first

#

solve the quadratic

#

and tell me

#

what x u got

#

yeye

#

take ur time

trail cloud
#

I got x = 6, and x = -2

vivid cliff
#

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 $$|x-3|=-2$$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

trail cloud
#

So x = 9 and 1?

vivid cliff
#

$x-3 = 6$ or $x-3 = -6$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

vivid cliff
#

we have to

#

reject

#

$|x-3| = -2$

woven radishBOT
#

Springsskateboard

vivid cliff
#

yeye cuz it’s

#

absolute

#

and can’t be negative

vivid cliff
#

solve this

#

and 2 x values

#

will be ur ans

trail cloud
#

Ok, so 9 and -3

#

Thanks

Can anyone tell me where I've gone wrong? Book has a different answer

hollow pollen
#

no + C

#
  • C cancels itself out
prime egret
#

Can’t cancel (2x+5) and 1/2x like that

burnt quail
#

Oh, I see what you mean with the +c

hollow pollen
#

but yeah you did the integral wrong also

burnt quail
hollow pollen
#

you need to use arctan

burnt quail
#

Oh I see, and that turns into like 5arctan or something

#

Ok cool

#

Thanks guys!

hollow pollen
#

sqrt(5) arctan

#

sqrt(5) arctan(x/sqrt(5))

burnt quail
#

Wait why sqrt5

hollow pollen
#

perhaps watch a video on arctan integrals

its a better explanation than i can give here

rare roost
#

I need help understanding my teachers solution to this LDU factorization problem.

rare roost
#

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.

  1. Reduce the matrix to REF to create the upper matrix
    1a) Keep track of the row operations performed
  2. Perform the opposing operations (addition becomes subtraction, vice versa) in the opposing order on the identity matrix to create the lower matrix
  3. 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 $a$?

woven radishBOT

ESAllhands

restive river
#

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)

uncut crow
#

try drawing an example with a discontinuous function

restive river
#

I did

uncut crow
#

what did you find?

pseudo basin
#

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

restive river
#

oh - its probably obvious but that should have been an h and not a 0

pseudo basin
#

oh

restive river
#

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

uncut crow
#

I might have a counterexample

#

f(x) = |x| + 1 for x not 0, f(0) = 0

#

with a = 0

restive river
#

right - this is similar to what I was thinking

uncut crow
#

f(a+h) = f(a-h) for all h

restive river
#

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

pseudo basin
#

1/x^2 for x not 0, whatever you want for x=0

restive river
#

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?

terse stone
#

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

slow fable
# terse stone why do you think it's the right answer?

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.

terse stone
#

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?

slow fable
terse stone
#

so, yeah the correct answer is A=B

terse stone
#

when A⋂B=empty set, A-B=A, B-A=B

#

make sense?

slow fable
#

thank you!

terse stone
#

yeah, so the answer you thought was correct answer for II, is actually the answer to III

slow fable
#

Can I use the same example you provided for that as well

#

or is there a different approach?

terse stone
#

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

slow fable
#

Ohh okay

#

I see now

terse stone
#

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?

slow fable
#

correct

terse stone
#

that's it

#

set theory is really easy if you think about it from real-life perspective

sage glade
#

yeah idk what i did wrong

violet wind
#

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

quaint citrus
#

Yea it’s supposed to be an x^9

sage glade
#

ahhhh

#

i seee thank you one sec

quaint citrus
#

Also remember that minus sign distributes

sage glade
#

yup i caught it loool

#

okay i got it!

Where is the y in last time? Considered as a constant so added to c1?

restive river
#

Ping me please. Thank you.

devout snowBOT
#

@restive river Has your question been resolved?

prime egret
#

Yes it’s implied that y is a constant

prime egret

Because you write f’(x) and not y’

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

dreamy knoll

Oh. I got it.

#

So is 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 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)

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))

Oh, sorry, re editted it.

winter patrol
#

well the function is undefined at 0

prime egret
winter patrol
#

it has no y-interecept

dreamy knoll
#

What should I put it?

winter patrol
#

well the function is undefined at 0
it has no y-intercept

dreamy knoll
#

So it's always undefined?

woven radishBOT
dreamy knoll
#

What If it is reversed as (a^2)/(a^3)?

prime egret
dreamy knoll
#

Where theres nothing at top

#

Should I put one?

prime egret
#

That would be 1/a

dreamy knoll
#

OoooooooOooh. I feel genius now. My mind must have messed up that as for denominator.

prime egret
#

If that is what you asked

dreamy knoll
prime egret
#

a^3 / a^2 = a

#

a^2 / a^3 = 1/a

dreamy knoll
#

So If there's no any value at numerator, I must always put one?

prime egret
#

$\frac{a^2}{a^3} = a^{2-3} = a^{-1} = \frac{1}{a}$
