Smart

#

Thx man ❤️

stone stump
#

which btw we can see if we are smart just from the matrix

#

cause the second column is just (0,2,0)

#

in general, if the i'th column is just c*e_i, then c is an eigenvalue and e_i is an eigenvector

red helm
#

Ok good to know !

#

is there a reason why dsqrt(x)/dx where dx = New area is the derivative of sqrt(x)? Because isnt the derivative of sqrt(x) = dsqrt(x)/slight nudge in x

unborn geyser
#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

im genuinely confused

#

does d(sqrt(x)) the difference in y value?

Twelve volleyball teams just completed a round-robin tournament. (There are no ties in volleyball.) If no team won exactly 7 matches, prove that there exist 3 teams A, B, and C such that A beat B, B beat C, and C beat A.

my intuition is that is is possible, but im not sure how to prove it. can i get a hint please?

velvet vale
#

Like the final set up feels like finding a cycle in the graph

#

Ah not graph coloring but directed graph

velvet vale
#

Yea

#

It’s a complete graph with 12 nodes

#

And one node can’t have 7 edges leaving it

#

Which also feels like pigeon hole will be used at some point

coral wraith
#

so each line show who won who

coral wraith
#

and im not sure how to continue with the graph

velvet vale
#

I'm not either lol

#

I'm just trying to give ideas

#

ok let's uh

#

restate the problem

#

Given a complete digraph with 12 vertices, show that there are no 3 member cycles

coral wraith
#

and no node connects to more than 7 other nodes

velvet vale
#

right right

coral wraith
#

i think i know how to think about this problem

#

imma try something

velvet vale
#

cool

#

lmk if you have a full sol

#

I'm curious

coral wraith
#

im trying to set up a contradiction

#

If there doesn’t exists 3 teams A, B, and C such that A beat B, B beat C, and C beat A,
.... not sure what happens

#

@velvet vale
what if
A, D, E, F and G beat B
and B beat C
then did C not beat A, D, E, F and G assuming that there is no cycle of three?

velvet vale
#

I believe so

#

If you’re trying to construct it that way

coral wraith
#

Im really confused on how to continue with this

velvet vale
#

I need to go to class, but I’ll think about it. Or just ask someone else

coral wraith
#

cool thanks!

#

anyone else wanna help?

#

how do i prove this

velvet vale
#

What if you get rid of the win restriction and just try constructing an acyclic graph

coral wraith
#

or using pigeonhole and contradiction

velvet vale
#

Does it follow that it contradicts the win flcondiditon

coral wraith
#

every teams either wins or loses to another team

velvet vale
#

Let’s say A beats B, then A can’t lose to any team that B beats

#

So now A also beats the set of teams B beats

#

And then you can keep applying that argument maybe

#

And might imply that in order for it to be acyclic A must be undefeated

coral wraith
#

interesting

velvet vale
#

Hmmm

#

If B loses to C then A can either beat or lose against C

#

Maybe you can then pivot to C or something

coral wraith
#

considering the restrictions, A can only be beat by 11-(the number of teams B beat)

#

at most 5 teams

#

im honestly really not sure

#

:despair:

#

ill come back to it later

stuck on how to do proof by induction with inequalities
one specific question would be
prove 2^k > k^2 for k >= 5

i can get up to the point of expanding the k+1 part into 2(2^k) > k^2 + 2k + 1, but im not sure where to go from there

if i take out the assumed 2^k > k^2 part, im just left with 2 > 2k + 1 but thats always false for k >= 5

magic thicket
#

2(2^k) = 2^k + 2^k
So since 2^k > k², you get
2^k > 2k+1
Does that hold ?

magic thicket
#

can you prove it ?

ruby fjord
#

no

#

idk where youd go from there either

magic thicket
#

could it be that 2^k > k² >= 2k+1 ? If so we're pretty much done

ruby fjord
magic thicket
#

or you can try and prove this result by induction too, but that's slower (though no analysis involved, depends on what you prefer)

#

In general a polynomial of degree n will be (at least in absolute value) bigger than any polynomial of degree < n when x gets big enough. Here we can expect x >= 5 to work according to the question

magic thicket
#

for any constant k > 0 and integer n, x^(n+1) / (kx^n) -> +inf as x -> +inf

#

so you can expect x² > 2x+1 when x is large enough

#

,w plot x² - 2x - 1

woven radishBOT
magic thicket
#

you can see that for x >= 5 (and even x >= 2.4) it is positive

ruby fjord
#

and how does that mean that k^2 > 2k + 1

magic thicket
#

of course it is

prime egret
magic thicket
#

yes that's more explicit

ruby fjord
magic thicket
#

you never studied quadratics ?

ruby fjord
#

wait

#

sorry my brain has been fried from being forced to look at this type of question for an hour straight today

#

and no one else in the room knew wtf was going on either

#

if you get (k+1)^2 > 0 then k = -1 to make that true right

magic thicket
#

shouldn't it be (k-1)² - 2 > 0 ?

#

,w plot (x-1)² - 2

woven radishBOT
ruby fjord
magic thicket
ruby fjord
#

oh

#

i cant even do algebra properly rn in my head wtf

magic thicket
#

k² > 2k+1
k² - 2k - 1 > 0
k² - 2k + 1 - 2 > 0
(k-1)² - 2 > 0

ruby fjord
#

makes sense

ruby fjord
#

its solved now cause A > B B >= C then A > C but is that applicable to other questions in the exact same way

magic thicket
#

I know it's bigger than 2k+1 so I directly know it will work. So it's much easier to find it compared to you who has to spend several minutes to check it

#

I intuitively notice immediately that the LHS is <= 2k² and therefore we conclude from the induction hypothesis

#

with enough experience anything becomes immediately noticeable I guess

#

"How can I simplify this expression to something that will be simple enough and still correct ?"

ruby fjord
#

lemme get the main example that broke my brain cause this was just smth i thought up to get the basic idea of it

#

“prove (1 + x)^k >= 1 + kx for k >= 1”

#

this was an example for note-taking actually and i still couldnt understand the explanation so i just have a picture of the explanation that i dont get

magic thicket
#

a^x - a >= 0 for every x >= 1 and a >= 0
The equality holds for x = 0

ruby fjord
#

i understand up to expanding the k+1 part into (1+x)(1+x)^k >= 1 + kx + x

magic thicket
#

so it works by comparing the two functions

#

which is quite a common method

ruby fjord
magic thicket
#

you only want it for integer values of k ?

ruby fjord
#

or

#

wait

#

i read it wrong

#

in the way i wrote it, k is an integer and x is real

magic thicket
#

ok k integer

#

I thought we were doing the more general version, but then no induction so it was weird

ruby fjord
#

or not integer actually, natural number

magic thicket
#

we said k >= 1 so that was obvious

magic thicket
ruby fjord
#

prove for 1, assume for k, prove for k+1

magic thicket
#

yeah but you could prove it different ways, I was just confirming that's the method you want to use

#

induction is very doable yes

ruby fjord
#

so yeah induction

magic thicket
magic thicket
ruby fjord
magic thicket
#

you mean by dividing by (1+x)^k ?

#

that actually works yes

magic thicket

  • we will solve it by reasoning by recurrence

  • let's prove that 2 ^ K > K² when K >= 5 :

    for K = 5 :
    2^5 = 32 > 5^2 = 25
    so 2 ^ K > K² is true for K = 5

  • we will suppose that : 2^k > K² and we will prove that 2 ^ (K + 1) > (K + 1)²:

      - we know that :
         1.     `2 ^ (K + 1) = 2 ^ K + 2 ^ K`
         2.    `(K + 1)² = K² + 2K + 1`
    

so we have to prove that 2 ^ K + 2 ^ K > K² + 2K + 1

    - we already supposed that  `2^K > K²` so need just to prove that `2^K > 2K + 1`
      and since   `2 ^ K > k²` then `2^K - 2K - 1 > K² - 2K - 1`

   so if we prove that  `K² - 2K - 1 > 0`   then `2 ^ K - 2K - 1 > 0 ` is also true
  • for f(K) = K² - 2K - 1
    the derivation : f'(K) = 2K - 2 > 0 when K >= 5
    so the function K² - 2K - 1 is converging and f(K) >= ( f(5) = 14)
    so K² - 2K - 1 > 14 > 0
    so K² > 2K - 1

and since 2 ^ K > K² then 2 ^ K > 2K - 1

  • so we can conclude that : 2 ^ (K + 1) > (K + 1)²
    and by the principle of reasoning by recurrence we can say that
    2 ^ K > K ^ 2

#

You can make a contradiction trying to say it’s acyclic

#

Team A either has to win 11 games or lose 11 games

#

If it wins 11 then it’s a contradiction

#

If it loses 11 then you can just remove it because it won’t impact our cyclic case

#

So we reduce it to 11 teams and 6 max wins

#

You can do the same argument and eventually it leads to another contradiction

coral wraith
velvet vale
#

Because then it’s cyclic

coral wraith
#

right

coral wraith
velvet vale
#

you can only have max 7 wins right?

coral wraith
#

i misread last time

#

a team cant win exactly 7 games

#

it can win more

#

I’m confused as to how setting X_i to have all zeros apart from one row with entry 1 gives the following expansion?
How can (x_i)^T(…)=(…)

real grail
#

A^T is a matrix that if you multiply it by the matrix A will give you In
A^T * A = I

#

example :
[\begin{bmatrix*}[r]1 2 \ 2 1 \end{bmatrix*}] * [\begin{bmatrix*}[r]a b \ c d \end{bmatrix*}] = [
\begin{bmatrix*}[r]
1 0 \ 0 1
\end{bmatrix*}
]

#

if you find a , b , c and d then its A^T

pulsar ermine
#

Thanks, but I don’t think that’s what I’m asking?

Mehdi_Moulati

pulsar ermine
#

I’m referring to when they set x_i =(0,0,0,…1…,0,0,0)

torn vessel
pulsar ermine
#

I see thanks

#

So when they’re referring to (P^TP-I)y they’re referring to each row in regards to x_i right

torn vessel
#

i'm not sure I understand your question

pulsar ermine
#

So when they write (P^TP-I)y they’re referring to the ith row of (P^TP-I)y

torn vessel
#

no, that's a vector

#

x_i times that is the i'th row

dusky adder
#

I think this is the technique I should use

wooden wraith
#

Pretty much that

#

Since it's an odd power of sin, if you factor out sin^2 (or in general the highest even power you can) and change it to 1-cos^2, then you have a nice u-sub you can do

dusky adder
#

odd power of cos?

wooden wraith
#

oh

#

sin

#

sorry

#

But same idea

#

I fixed my comment

dusky adder
#

ok, so split it into sin(x)^2 and sin(x)

#

and then it looks like use an identity

wooden wraith
#

pythag identity

dusky adder
#

ok, this seems like dark magic

#

but I think I get the idea

wooden wraith
#

It's basically the same idea as the image you posted

dusky adder
#

ok

#

imma try it

wooden wraith
#

since cos and sin are derivatives of each other (up to a negative sign), if you can leave one sin alone and change everything else to cos, then you're golden

#

or vice versa

quartz gale
#

how to find max or min ?

devout snowBOT
quartz gale
#

i know for quadratic we take differtiation and stuff

zenith jacinth
#

differentiate

scarlet sequoia
#

and check boundary values

quartz gale
#

so i got

#

-10sin2x -2(sin2x+2xcosx)

zenith jacinth
#

yes

quartz gale
#

then what

zenith jacinth
#

make it equal to 0

#

then solve

quartz gale
#

oh so we are finding critical points?

zenith jacinth
#

thats what they mean by finding maximum values tho

quartz gale
#

dont we have to differentiate again for finding max or mi

zenith jacinth
#

?

quartz gale
#

we differntiate again then if answer is less than 0 its max if more than 0 then min

zenith jacinth
#

you are talking about convexity and concavity

quartz gale
#

uh

#

im just saying local max or min

#

how do i solve for the function

#

its sin and cos

#

@zenith jacinth

zenith jacinth
#

you dont need to differentiate two times to have the max

quartz gale
#

ok

#

but how do i solve this equation

#

-12sin2x-4xcos2x

#

=0

zenith jacinth
#

its look kinda impossible

quartz gale
#

yea so how do we find max then

#

without plotting

zenith jacinth
#

,w tan(2x) = -x/3

woven radishBOT
zenith jacinth
#

,w -12sin(2x) -4xcos(2x)=0

woven radishBOT
zenith jacinth
#

welp i dont see how

#

maybe try differentiating two times

# quartz gale how to find max or min ?

differentiate and restrict your function to the interval. After differentiating, the maximum value is either at the critical points or at the edges of the interval

wide hemlock
#

you test to see if it's a maximum or minimum based on the second derivative's value at the critical points

#

how do u multiply both sides

#

to get the second answer

winter hound
#

The fraction has a denominator of 5

#

We don’t want to have fractions in quadratics, so we multiply each term in that equation with the value of the denominator

restive river
#

ok so i multiply each term in the whole equation by the denominator of the fraction to get rid of the fraction]

for cosx - 1 series how do we know to subtract 1 from the exponent of x?

#

isnt it just subtracting the first term which is 1?

wooden wraith
#

No, starting the sum at n=1 instead of n=0 already takes care of that

#

That's not right, it should be 2n

clear pond
#

oh really so the series doesnt change?

#

its similar to e^x-1?

wooden wraith
#

Yeah, all you did was subtract a constant, 1, which happens to be equal to the first term of the series

#

So all you have to do is remove that term

#

Which you did by changing the lower bound

clear pond

oh yea that makes more sense

Hello I don't know how to solve for x
7x - 3 = 2x + 12 + 2x

rigid sandal
#

hey mate

short orchid
#

hei

rigid sandal
#

are u familiar w the concept of like terms

short orchid
#

yes, i have to move the x

rigid sandal
#

so

short orchid
#

i want it to become x =

#

so i can get answer

#

or something

rigid sandal
#

take all of ur x's to the left side

#

and all the numbers to the right

short orchid
#

ok, 11x

rigid sandal
#

ok wait a sec mate

#

u can't just drag the numbers from one side to the other

short orchid
#

yes i know i have to

rigid sandal
#

if u wanna move stuff

#

u have to do it to both sides

short orchid
#

balane

rigid sandal
#

so bc ur subtracting 4x from the right

#

u need to do the same on the left

short orchid
#

so it would equal 3x - 3 = 12

#

now

#

i

rigid sandal
#

good

short orchid
#

cancel 3

#

3x=9

rigid sandal
#

nah mate

#

stop for a sec

#

its the same thing w the x's

#

u need to add 3 to both sides

#

to make there no 3 on the left

#

which gives 3x = 12 + 3

short orchid
#

so 3x=15?

rigid sandal
#

yes

short orchid
#

ok

#

i will need to cancel the 3x

#

i mean 3

#

x=5?

rigid sandal
#

yes

short orchid
#

k thanks

rigid sandal
#

all good

short orchid
#

ya

#

unborn geyser
#

hmm i dont get it. The video said that if you invest your money, the rate at which it grows is proportional to the amount of money at any time

unborn geyser
#

i dont understand what the sentence said by the video mean

pseudo basin
#

do you understand proportionality in general

#

sounds like you may have trouble with that more than with the actual calculus

unborn geyser
#

i havent done proportionality in quite some time

warm fulcrum
#

Basically two things are proportional if you can multiply the first with some constant to get the latter and vice versa

warm fulcrum
unborn geyser
#

how do u find the proportionality constant?

#

by dividing (dM/dt) by M?

warm fulcrum
# unborn geyser by dividing (dM/dt) by M?

Usually the constant is given when solving a differential equation, but yeah if it's unknown and you know your amount of money and the rate your money changes at the same time, you can find the proportionality constant by what you said here.

unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

Say that you are told your money grows by 1.05 times your current amount of money. This would be a differential equation where the change is proportional to the original function, which can be modelled by dM/dt = 1.05M

unborn geyser
#

how does the proportionality constant relate to the two ratios

warm fulcrum
#

It isn't really, since when the proportionality constant is 1, the two are just equal

warm fulcrum
unborn geyser
#

does this proportionality constant tell me that 3/5 * 33/55 = 7/11?

warm fulcrum
#

No, it tells you that 3/5 = 33/35 ∙ 7/11

unborn geyser
#

oh

warm fulcrum
#

So 3/5 is proportional to 7/11 by the constant 33/35, or said in another way 3/5 is 33/35 times as big as 7/11

unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

In general, we say y is proportional to x, if there exists some constant value k such that y = kx

unborn geyser
#

theres always 2 proportionality constant for 2 not proportional ratios?

unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

Well, kind of. Saying 3/5 is proportional to 7/11 is equivalent to say 7/11 is proportional to 3/5, but the different wordings have different implied meanings. The first usually mean we want it on the form 3/5 = k ∙ 7/11, while the other wants it on the form 7/11 = c ∙ 3/5

#

But if one is proportional to the other, the other is proportional to the one, yeah

unborn geyser
#

oh ok

unborn geyser
unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

Which part doesn't make sense?

unborn geyser
#

dM/dt = (1+r)M

#

rate of change = k * M

#

M is the amount of money right?

warm fulcrum
#

At a given point in time, yes

unborn geyser
#

so we can rewrite M as y on the graph

warm fulcrum
#

Yeah

unborn geyser
#

dy/dt = k * y

warm fulcrum
#

Yes

unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

Yeah, that's what it said in the beginning

unborn geyser
#

oo

#

but how can we know that its proportional?

#

by finding if a constant exist such as dy/dt can be express by k * y?

warm fulcrum
#

It's just the information given

unborn geyser
#

oh ok

warm fulcrum
#

It says it's proportional, and modelled by dM/dt = (1 + r)M, for some constant value r

#

So we can directly read from this that the proportionality constant is 1 + r

unborn geyser
#

oh okay

#

that makes more sense

#

$m^{294}\equiv {m^{18}}^{16}m^6 \mod{100}$

let $y=m^6$

u can use pythagoras theorem using by treating the length, the horizontal distance and vertical distance as a right angled triangle

midnight laurel
#

kinda

#

wut about question 2

#

@wanton pumice

wanton pumice
#

u can find the coordinates of each point and find distance same way u did for question 1

#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

AAAAAAAAA

#

CAN ANYONE HELP PLS

wanton pumice
#

once u know the coordinates of two points, u can find the distance between them

#

In qeustion 1, they directely gave u the 2 points so u can go ahead and apply the formula directly

midnight laurel
#

that's with a right angle

wanton pumice
#

In question 2, they didnt give points but you can find the coordinates using the graph

wanton pumice
#

do u understand the formula?

how is the difference in y value after increasing dx for the f(x) graph $df/dx\text{ }(a)\text{ }dx?$ shouldn't it be just $df$?

woven radishBOT
#

LichBaw_GT

unborn geyser
#

<@&286206848099549185>

warm fulcrum
#

df/dx(a) is the slope for f at your point a, multiplying this with dx gives you df if you view it as a triangle

#

That's just the interpretation of slope for a straight line

unborn geyser
warm fulcrum
#

When you have a straight line on the form y = ax + b, a is the slope meaning how much you go up/down in y everytime you go 1 to the right on your x-axis. If you take this slope a and multiply it with 2, you get how much the y-value changes when you go 2 to the right on the x-axis and etc. with 3, 4, 5 and so on. This can also be done with non-integers like ½. If you multiply the slope of your line with ½ this is the change in y-value as you go ½ to the right on your x-axis.

Looking at your triangle, the slope of the line that is your hypothenuse, will be the slope of f at point a, or said in another way df/dx(a). Multiplying this slope with dx will give you how much your y-value changes, dy = df, when you go dx to the right on your x-axis. So therefore df = df/dx(a) ∙ dx

unborn geyser
#

actually i noticed something

#

df/dx (a) * dx = df(a)

#

df(a) is the df near the point a after increasing dx

i need the solution for this differential equation, not just the final answer but the process to get there. I have been banging my head around this for 2 days. I know it is a bernoulli equation and i know the steps to solve it, but something is not working so i need help.

bright burrow

#

i am thinking of solving it as a homogenous equation

#

do you think that could make it easier?

robust mason
#

can someone help me understand absolute value pls

wooden veldt
#

If the number is positive, it does nothing
If the number x is negative, it gives you -x

#

|3|=3

#

|-5|=5

#

|0|=0

robust mason
#

wait that's all

zenith jacinth
#

yes

robust mason
#

but

prime egret
#

Yeah all for reals but in general it describes the distance of the point from the origin

robust mason
restive river
#

Absolute value is the distance from 0 of that number

robust mason
#

I see

#

I'm enlightened, thank u

restive river
#

R u sure

robust mason
#

yes

restive river
#

Don’t lie

robust mason

robust mason
#

why do u ask

restive river
#

Cuz I need to know who I’m talking to

robust mason
#

yes thank u

#

what

restive river
#

Yep

robust mason
#

what did I do

restive river
#

Nvm

#

Will u finish ur absolute value homework now

robust mason
#

yes

restive river
#

And show ur teacher ur a good student

robust mason
#

thanks for helping

stark shuttle
#

Can anyone help me with this question?

devout snowBOT
left robin
#

we can pull in the 4

#

4log(x)=log(x^4)

#

then move that to the other side

#

apply 3^() to both sides

hybrid snow
#

Ah but make sure that x > 0 for the solutions

stark shuttle
#

Okie

#

I'll try

#

Like this?

left robin
#

the minus should not be there

#

we have something like a-b=0 so a=b

#

log3(16)-4log3(x)=0
log3(16)=4log3(x)
log3(16)=log3(x^4)

stark shuttle
#

I fixed it

#

Is this right?

left robin
#

almost

#

i would wait with eliminating the 16

#

so that we get

#

4log3(x)=log3(16)
log3(x^4)=log3(16)

#

apply 3^() to both sides

#

x^4=16

#

x^2=+-sqrt(16)=+-4

#

x=+-sqrt(+-4)

#

x=+-2, x=+-2i

high badge
#

havent seen this type of graph before

restive river
# high badge

Well I guess whenever cos(2theta) is 0 would give u r = B

high badge
#

so it would be

#

pi/4?

#

wait no but

#

we want b not theta

#

quite confused

fossil bay
#

You can see the radius most clearly when theta is what

#

@high badge

high badge
#

when theta is 0?

fossil bay
#

Yes, you can also count it clearly when theta is pi/2 yes?

high badge
#

yep

fossil bay
#

Well ok now say theta is 0

#

Work from there to find B

#

you know r at theta 0

restive river
#

Ahh I see now

high badge
#

-2?

restive river
#

Took me a bit

#

Makes sense now

high badge
#

-2 was wrong though hmm

#

hello-

#

@fossil bay

restive river
#

Hmm I figured the answer to be -4 ig?

fossil bay
#

yeah but idk why i keep getting +4 hm

high badge
#

-4 was correct

#

i understand now

fossil bay
#

where is this from

#

looks good

#

lofty crater
#

i cannot use a comparison test on this can i?

restive river
#

Alternating series test may work here nicely if u can prove that series is completely monotonicthinkies

lofty crater
#

but the series doesnt alternate right

restive river
#

Oh oop my bad, just realized

#

Yeah thought that was a product

#

My bad

lofty crater
#

all good

#

i just dont want to do a integral test on this but i cant figure out how to use the comparison test

restive river
#

Anyways @lofty crater

#

Direct comparison would work nicely here I think

#

Start with 6+ (-1)^n <= 7

lofty crater
#

but how because if we turn it into a pseries it would converge but the new series would not be less than the orignal series

restive river
#

You get the comparison with 7/nsqrt(n) which converges

lofty crater
#

why would 6+(-1)^n be 7

#

it would forever alternate between 7 and 5

restive river
#

I said

#

<=

#

Lesser or equal to

lofty crater
#

oh i thought you mean it points to 7

#

okay yeah

#

so what would i compare this to a pseries or a geometric series

restive river
#

Wdym

lofty crater
#

well like would would i turn the b_n into

restive river
#

Becomes p series

lofty crater
#

so 1/nsqrt(n)

restive river
#

Don't forget 7

lofty crater
#

why do we need the 7

restive river
#

Because that's how we defined our bounds to be earlier

lofty crater
#

yeah but how do i solve a pseries with 7 in the numerator

restive river
#

It does not matter it is just a constant

lofty crater
#

wait

#

so youre telling me this whole time i can solve pseries problems if the constant in the numerator is any number

restive river
#

Yeah

#

Because dun dun, p series are just integrals

#

And what can u do with integrals? Take out constants

lofty crater
#

that makes sense by why does every example use 1 i thought this whole time it could only be 1

unborn geyser
#

what does the video mean by there is no limiting output where everything is within a distance of epsilon of that output?

radiant drift
#

it's just a form of discontinuity?

#

A jump discontinuity occurs when the curve “breaks” at a particular place and starts somewhere else.

#

ive no clue why u need epsilon to explain it

#

but it's essentially limit from the left and right both exist at f(x)

#

but they don't equate

unborn geyser
#

ok

unborn geyser
radiant drift
#

just use intuition

#

like however small the epsilon is

#

there exists a positive integer N such that whenever n > N, then |an – L| < ε.

#

epsilon>0

supple knot
unborn geyser
radiant drift
#

and the opposite is true: A sequence {sn} is said to diverge to ∞, if, for any positive number M, however large, there exists a positive integer N such that whenever n > N, then |sn| > M.

unborn geyser
#

ok

radiant drift
#

this applies to limit of functions too. Cause the concept of limit of function is derived of sequence, a thing called heine's theorem

unborn geyser
#

oh okay

uncut crow
#

what's heine's theorem?

radiant drift

lyric folio
#

A box of 60 colored marbles contain 3 times as many as blue as yellow and 12 white marbles. What is the probability of choosing not a blue marble from the box?

rotund heron
#

What have you tried?

#

And where exactly are you facing a difficulty?

lyric folio
#

With the 3 times as many

#

I did 3x + x = 4x

#

But I think I’m wrong with that

lilac portal
#

Nah its, 3 x yellow = blue

#

it means that blue has 3 times as many as yellow

lyric folio
#

But what does “as many as” mean

#

I always see them

lilac portal
#

blue has 3 times more as the number of yellow marbles

lyric folio
#

3 + x

lilac portal
#

It just mean equals

lyric folio
#

ohh

lilac portal
#

blue has 3 times more than yellow

lyric folio
#

3x + x

#

So 3 = x

#

Interesting

#

So x is 3

lilac portal
#

Not quite

#

3 times yellow = blue

lyric folio
#

3x = x

#

3x = y

lilac portal
#

Yeah that would be much more appropriate

lyric folio
#

Ok

#

What’s next

lilac portal
#

3x=y right? x is yellow while blue is y

lyric folio
#

Yep

lilac portal
#

So we go back to the problem itself

#

There are 60 marbles
