I was working on proof for the prompt
Prove that a set of n (different) elements has exactly 2^n (different) subsets.
I was looking for feedback on my proof.
I did a proof by weak induction
The proof seems alright

Having trouble analyzing a probably a statically indeterminate continuously supported beam. Below is the diagram and the data. I am stuck with even trying to resolve for and finding the reaction forces. Can someone walk me through on how to tackle this question?
A continuous beam of length 10 m is supported by three supports. The distances between the
supports are as follows:
• The left support is located at the left end of the beam.
• The distance between the left support and the middle support is 4 m.
• The distance between the middle support and the right support is 6 m.
The beam is subjected to the following loads:
• A point load of 15 kN at a distance of 2 m from the left support.
• A uniformly distributed load of 6 kN/m between the left support and the middle support.
• A triangular load that starts from the middle support and increases uniformly to 10 kN at the
right support.
The left support is a roller support, the middle support is also a roller support and the right support is a fixed support.

Rewrite cosh 6x + sinh 6x in terms of exponentials
I'd try with the exponential definitions in this case
How would I do that?
sinh(x) = (e^x - e^(-x)) / 2
cosh(x) = (e^x + e^(-x) / 2
Do they look familiar?
Price
mm I got
$\frac{2e^{6x}}{2}$ after simplifying
Price
but wasn't right
I think that's right, you still can simplify the 2s though

how can you formalize that a matrix is strictly better than another one?
well what do you mean with "better"
it have greater numbers in it
I have to model it in terms of utility
so the higher the value the higher the utility
so the better
well then you can say that $A\geq B$ if and only if $a_{i,j}\geq b_{i,j}$ for all $i,j$

I’m stuck on this question
I don’t know what formula to use, I have the formulas but I never know when to use which one, and I keep getting the wrong answers according to the textbook
so you have the sum of two compounding accounts adding up to 10,000
how far have you gotten? if you need formula help I assume you know the logic of what to do?
I have these formulas
But I never know which one to use
Yeah I know what to do but I don’t know what formula
the compound interest one
Am I right to do A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Okay
A = 0(1 + 0.041/52)^52(2)
I don’t know what the principal would be
I assume 0
if they started with $0 they'd compound to $0 forever 
Uhh
they started with $50
Okay
waiittt
I just saw the regular payments one
You'd need that for the first part, I believe
they're regularly depositing $50, not just once
10,000 = 50(52)/0.041 ((1 + 0.041/52)^52(2) -1)
Wait
Is it fv = or 10,000 =
FV =, you want to know how much they make themselves, so the parents can help with the rest
Okay
,w 50(52)/0.041 ((1 + 0.041/52)^52(2) -1)
wrong formatting, hmm
Put it to the power of 104
,w ((50 * 52)/0.041)( ( 1 + 0.041/52)^(52 * 2) - 1)
i think
I got the same thing
anyway 10k - that is what the parents have to contribute
,w 10,000 - (((50 * 52)/0.041)( ( 1 + 0.041/52)^(52 * 2) - 1))
Does the second part of the question not matter
it does
this remaining 4,583 is for the second part
the parents have to ultimately have raised this much, so what starting amount do they stick in their account so the interest gets it up to 4.5k after 2 years
that's p2
Oh okay
Is that A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
The answer should be $4078.92 but I got $4078.85

how would you solve for 11.b? do you need to look at x-value or y-value?
horizontal transformation
f(x+h) means f(x) shifted +h units to the left
While f(x)+k is vertical transformation of f(x)
,tex .transformation rules
Akira 🍉
Try always remember that if its in the brackets then it affects the x values and if its outside then it affects the y-values. And remember, when its inside the bracket, it will do the opposite of what you think, so +2 would move it -2 on the graph
so it's a y value?
What do you mean?
hi
I mean when you seeing a x-value you look at y-value
f(x+2) is f(x) except shifted 2
horizontally
in the left direction
so draw the function shifted left
oh i get it now
Yeah, its opposite of what you would think
so that would be +2?
+2 actually does -2 on the graph
depends on how u think
makes sense to me
y = x
right
want to shift it up?
y - 1 = x
shift it right
y - 1 = x - 1
ppl say its confusing cuz shifting up is y = x + 1
move the 1, and it makes sense
I wish i could think like you in that, I just hard code the rule that its opposite in my brain and call it a day
lol
did u read the chapter
yes I did but how they get the 5 from
where r u seeing 5..?
I think probably the answer page I imagine, can’t see why it would be 5 though if its asking you to plot the transformations
wait it's something else
was checking the answer for the previous question
Phahaha

I need help calculating these bills:
Umm are they supposed to be $x$ or multiplication
can you show us a picture of the question?
ahaan
that's not the first time he asks, he needs to calculate the value of the expression (x is multiply)
I don't know how to do that
upon asking about exponents and addition demands immidiate answer
You can use parentheses to imply if your multiplying for example (9) (1)
x is interpreted as a variable, so its better for us to understand if you use parentheses.
I need a prompt answer
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

Not sure what to do next or where I might have gone wrong..
@sweet thorn Has your question been resolved?
I think you messed up
Do you know what the reduction formula for the integral of sec^n (x) is?
I do not, although I have glanced at it.
I think I figured it out
We are supposed to set int(sec^3x) to H and add to both sides
or essentially just add to both sides
to solve for the derivative of int(sec^3x), I remember doing something similar earlier in the class so I'll go with that lol

i know you set denominator to 0
nah keep one side equal to 0
It's a quadratic. You can factor it (if possible) or use the quadratic formula or complete the square
yeah its possible
yeah I was leaving that up to op to figure out lol
i prefer rooting
i said if possible because in general it's not always
solve it like this
this one is right
use formula: b^2 - 4 x a x c
b = 1
a = 1
c = -12
-47
7?
yes
now x1 = b-7/2
x2 = b+7/2
you will have your asnwer)
@calm belfry what did you get?
-5/2 & 9/2
@calm belfry
b is 1
in your case
(-b-7)/2 and (-b+7)/2
why negative b
not negative
yes negative, the quad formula is (-b +/- D)/2a
-3 & 4
?
yes this is correct
if b is negative, then -b is positive
tatpoj
if b is negative, then the first term, -b is positive. you don't need to make an exception
or you can just factor it and solve and get -3 and 4 that way as well
oh what? b in this case was -1, why did you tell her it's 1?
if you put 1 instead of b, -8/2 = -4 and 6/2 = 3
different asnwer
ask;ugbaklvanbskvnawskevanj
right
b = -1
-b = 1
(1 + 7)/2 and (1 - 7)/2
is this just a different convention in some parts of the world?
because the coefficient b is -1
I'm very confused about what you're saying

but
that's what I've been saying this whole time
b is -1
-b is 1
I just mistyped it in that one line
i did 1-7/2 and 1+7/2
you have vertical asymptotes at x=-3 and x=4
two vertical lines
wrong dots

Hello I need some help ik the answer is 735 but like just a bit confused on the set up
total students = x
students who do not eat at servo but eats at ike = (1/3-1/5)x
students who do not eat at ike but eats at servo = (2/7-1/5)x
students who do not eat at both ike and servo = (1/5)x
students who eat at both ike and servo = (427)
@misty quest Has your question been resolved?
Am I distributing the X?
@misty quest Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
id probably use some kind of venn diagram here
One be servos and the other be Ike’s?
Hmmm but idk what I’d put on each side
work on filling in the picture first
i mean the picture as in like idea of what you can say
heres my drawing
My thought is: you have 4 regions, and everyone fits into exactly one of these categories. So, if you add up all four regions, you should have everyone, only once, right?
Yeah
try translating this into math
Can I subtract one from the 2/7 which would give me the amount that eats at ikes?
,w solve 427+2/7 x + 1/3 x + 1/5 x = x


@misty quest
got it
so they are talking about more general regions
doesnt eat at ikes doesnt mean only eats at Servo
it means the entire green region here
so if you add up the red, the green, and the yellow, you get the entire region
but with a problem
you've counted the purple region twice
(because both green and red cover that region)
doing it this way gets you the correct answer
But why am I setting it equal to x + 1/5
you can think of it the other way
red + green + yellow gets you N right
but youre overcounting
red and green overlap
specifically, they overlap in the purple, which is being counted twice
so red + green + yellow - purple
this accounts for the double counting with red+green
so red + green + yellow - purple = N
or red + green + yellow = purple + N
Ohh the 1/5 isn’t a new group but just part of the other group
well like
green is the people that eat only at Servo, plus the people who eat at neither
and red is the people that eat only at Ike's, plus the people that eat at neither
@misty quest what you think
Oh wait I think I get it now so like the 1/5 is the group that doesn’t eat at either so I just have to subtract it?
so, heres this red group
this is everyone who doesnt eat at Servos
do you see how its every where except for inside the S circle?
and here's the other way
this is everyone that doesn't eat at Ike's
Yes but wouldn’t it be both colored since they don’t eat at both?
which be both colored?
the very outside?
The red for the circles
red is for people that dont eat at servos
So, theres 2 possibilities
they dont eat at servos, but they do eat at Ike's
or, they don't eat at either
Oh okay I thought red was the 1/5 that doesn’t eat at both
but the red includes this group
do you see why?
this is the crux
Its like
if you take the group of everyone who doesn't own a cat
it includes people who only own a dog
and people who dont have a cat or a dog
do you see what I mean?
"Don't eat at Servo's" is two groups
if you dont get what i mean thats fine, this is the fundamental piece of the problem
once you get this you will get the whole thing I think
The 2 groups are the 1/5 and the 1/3 right
hmm i think the 1/3 and the 2/7
but the exact amounts dont matter
you dont need to know these until the very end
Am I counting it twice since it’s included in the 1/3 and the 2/7
right
Because if you are a person who doesn't eat at Ike's or Servo's
You don't eat at Servo's
and You don't eat at Ike's
you answer yes to both of those questions
Ohhh that makes sense now
Couldn’t I also subtract the 1/5 from the 1/3 and 2/7 in the beginning
And then add the 1/5?
hmm I guess
Okay I get it now thank you so much

hello
my professor solved this questoin in a way i dont understand can someone explain to me why he doing it like this
this is the question
i have also tried no ones also helping me
yea
i feel you on this there pretty busy or
its just this question everytime i ask it no one responds maybe its just diffculte or something
I feel like the handwriting is a bit difficult to read
,rotate
So... I'm still taking Calc III so I don't understand it fully, but I'm learning this stuff rn so I might be able to help a bit
x+1 = 2-y = z-1
handwriting is my weakpoint
x + 1 = t
2 - y = t
z - 1 = t
It looks like your professor set each equal to t to get the parametric equations
I feel you, same here
thats right
and he got a vector u = <1,-1,1>
just move t to the other side and you she get this vector
x = t-1
y = 2-t
z = t-1
vector = <1 , -1 , 1 >
yeah, like you said
and the point is (-1,2,-1)
right?
i dont know about the other point
that's a point on the parametric equation, actually idk if we'll need it
yea
i dont think he uses it
this is my first question why is it BA othognal
not AB
BA is the vector from point B to A, vector AB moves in the opposite direction (from A to B rather than B to A)
I think you can use either, but your teacher might've chosen BA bc it gives easier numbers to work with
ah ok
idk if you can read this
but i get everything except for the last
part
how did he get this
never mind talking to you right no
w
i see how he did it
so
how is that the answer though
AB = <0, 1, 1>
I feel like its still missing something
Yeah, if the dot product of two vectors is zero, then it's perpendicular.
The vector we found from the parametric equations was <1,-1,1> I think
The dot product of that with the AB vector is 0, which means they're perpendicular
did u know u can try plotting these points online to get a visual of how they look
np, good luck with calc III

is this a correct way to solve this limit?
Why did 2log(x) turn into 2 though?
No
maybe try rewriting this limit: $\lim_{x\to0}\frac{x^2}{e^{-\frac{1}{x}}}$
MrFancy
Or argue with the lim u->infinity (exp u)/u^2 if you are defining exp over the infinite series and want to use as less fancy maths as possible (that is how we introduced it in analysis 1)
A lot of l'hospital enjoyers 
actually this might be DNE
No* lol I overlooked the 2ln(x)
It does exist, I graphed it
It's 0+

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
@urban hornet Has your question been resolved?
Rewrite as $I =\int\left(\operatorname{cosec}^2 x-2005\right) \sec ^{2005} x d x = \int \operatorname{cosec}^2 x \sec ^{2005} x d x-\int 2005 \sec ^{2005} x d x$ then apply integral by part.

after many tries, i tried to get right answer but i cant. so do someone have an idea how to solve that?
show the entire question
it says to remove ()
is that a semicolon
uh that is like book and has many examples
well () is just a fancy way of writing multiplication
work inside out x(5+x) = ?
i did
!show
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
but i got diffent than this:
i got x^4+24x^3+73x^2+154x+120
here it is
why are you multiplying 4+x with 5+x?
mistake here
You're only supposed to multiply x with 5+x
oh
Yeah

During the "well temperament", the sound frequencies between $440$ Hz and $880$ Hz are divided by $11$ nuances (sounds) in such a way that two always have the same ratio. Determine this ratio.
We have that $\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} = k$, so $a_{n+1} = k \cdot a_n$. This means that [a_{11} = k \cdot a_{10} = \cdots = k^{11} \cdot a_0 = k^{11} \cdot 440 = 880,] so $k = \sqrt[11] 2$.
they mean like, not including either
in reality, there's 11 "between them", not including either
but without knowing that, I don't think it's clear
So sqrt[12]{2} is actually correct, right?
What do you mean with not contradictory?
like it's phrased in a way where you can't tell if it's supposed to be 10 or 12; but 12 is one of the options (and 11 is not)
Ah, you mean you can't know if there is a sound at 440Hz and then at 880Hz, the ends
In that case, there would be 9 in between
so 10 frequencies
yes
no
let me make an example
like if it said "there's 3 sounds between 10 and 160"
then it would make sense if it means
10, 20, 40, 80, 160: ratio = 2
and
10,40,160: ratio = 4
Hm, in this case, there are two possibilities and maybe for larger cases, there are even more?
what do you mean
Will it always be two possibilities?
"there's n sounds between k and p", then will we always have possibilities with n + 2 and n elements?
idk, sorry
Well, 12 should really be the right answer.
We can imagine a big stripe (sound), and that gets divided by 11 cuts (sounds).
The individual cut pieces are now the sound frequencies, and we'll have 12 of them
Ah, you mean you can once think of the sounds as the frequencies and once as the distances between them
no, in both cases i'm thinking of frequencies, not spans
there is 12 spans, 13 total frequencies, 11 "betweens"
my main point is that it's phrased badly
@deep vortex Has your question been resolved?
What do you mean with 12 spans?
The spans between the vertical lines?
There would be 12 of them, yes, there are 11 vertical lines
Why 13 total frequencies?
440, ..., 880 denote the segments between the vertical lines in the above picture.
So I think there should be 12 of them?
(and so ... is 10)
Oh. You mean that after putting the 11 sounds/nuances, the ends will count as additional 2, so we'll have 13 for 440, ..., 880
yeah, i think that makes sense
the frequencies "contain" 11 points, and don't include the ends
Closed due to timeout
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
.reopen
✅
alternatively they include the ends, so there's 11 frequencies, and 10 spans
so you choose between 10th root and 12th root
Ok, for 11 sounds, there are 12 spans. That means there are 13 total frequencies. Do you mean "sounds" with "betweens"?
i don't know the word nuance
I mean "in between sounds" with them
the vertical lines
It says "divided by 11 nuances (sounds)"
Yes, you mean sounds with betweens.
Thank you
Though I think between two of these sounds, the same frequency will play so it's worded a bit badly if we say frequencies to the sounds.
The frequencies between 440Hz and 880Hz are divided by 11 sounds, and those 12 parts that come to be have the same frequency.
(or of course, if two of the 11 sounds are at the ends, then there will be 10 parts that have the same frequency)

hello, i need help with this permutation.
(1 2 3
2 3 1 )
i wrote the following:
sigma I = ( 12 ) * sigma = (1 2 3) * ( 1 2 3 )= ( 1 2 3 )
( 2 2 1 ) ( 2 3 1 ) ( 2 1 2 )
is this correct ?

how is f(x) and g(x) factored out the limit
g(x) doesnt depend of h
can you write g(x) in terms of h ?
meaning
also the limit of a product of function is the product of each limit
since g doesnt depend of h, lim g(x) is still g(x)

im back
can you do the first derivative with the fraction to start?
no;-;
Well, you shouldn't be scared of fractions if you're doing calculus😅
im behind
Well, you should start with simpler exercises first then
okay lets ignore the fraction then and pretend its not there. whats the derivative of just x^3?
3x^2?
yep now multiply that by the fraction
dont even have to do that
but you can if that makes it easier
you can just do it as 15/6
basically 5/6 + 5/6 + 5/6 is = 5/6 * 3
no so x^2 can be done the same way that the 3 was done
just put it into the numerator
15x^2/6
is this for the second derivative?
this is just first
??
now you still have to do the x^2 * the 15/6 we found earlier
the first derivative you found of just x^3 was 3x^2
all of that has to be multiplied by the 5/6
we only did the 3 so far and not the x^2
????
yea
i was breaking it into steps for you, basically you can do each part one at a time but i think i confused you
oh
so you dealt with the fraction and the 3 that you found
you just need to multiply that 15/6 that we got by the remaining x^2
the 3 comes from that yes
so is it 15/6x^2?
is x^2 outside of the fraction?
is it?
First ?
You can simplify it though
Wait
yes we can simplify by a factor of 3 here if you want
Would be easier to find the second derivative if you simplify it
yes
Okie
Ok
but as another mentioned we can simplify 15/6 to a simpler fraction then we can derivate again
15 and 6 are both divisible by 3
5/2?
yep! perfect
aye
(2)(5/2)?
yep
5x?
yes
Good job
all you great work
okay
this one is a bit more tricky but thats fine
I might find it helpful to rerwite the problem
;-;
can you think of any way to get rid of the pesky x in the denominator?
do I write it is x^4/x^2 - 3/x^2?
- not - but yes I would start there
oh ok
then I would simplify the first fraction to just x^2 and the second one I would write as 3x^-2
can you follow that?
and then the second term i just took x^2 out from the denominator and changed it to x^-2
do you know that 1/x = x^-1
Yea
so in this case 3/x^2 = 3x^-2
its the same rule
you can move it up but you gotta make the power negative
I get it yea
okay so we have x^2 + 3x^-2
negative 2 power on the second term sorry
i keep mistyping
anyways, now we take the second derivatives. we can do one term at a time which do you want to start with
So do we differentiate now ?
yep
wait was that all to get the 1st derivative ?
nope
Oh ok
ok so do you want to start by derivating x^2 or 3x^-2
perfect
I think I have to rewrite it
would it be
Since it’s a negative exponent
2+18/x4?
yep
aye thanks
sure
hold on it’s 2
do you understand what its asking
wait which question are we doing first
we can do whatever one you want to do
can we do 21 first
is it asking to find y’’
yep but what does that mean
i gave you a hint earlier that y' is normally the first derivative
so then what would y'' be
yep exactly
so the problem is just asking whats the second derivative of -4cosx
do you know what the derivative of cosx is?
No
hmmmm
is it -sinx?
im not sure how to teach it by proofing it but the derivative of cosx is -sinx
I read up on it before
yes thats perfect
fr?
the first question is to find y'' for y= 4sinx correct?
that would not be the answer
no?
you made a mistake somewhere
the first derivative will have cos in it
so the second derivative must have sin it
without doing any math i know that
yea
the first derivative would be 4cosx
yea
yeah i know
it’s ok so would it be
4 cos x
yea
but the derivative of cos x is -sinx
so is the answer -4sinx?
okay this one is similar to the last one but with one extra step basically
you can change theta (the weird o thing) to x btw if you want so its more in line with the other problems we've been doing
it’s 0 right
well no, we have to use the product rule because we have -x^8 * cosx
Ah
no
basically its (f x g)' = (f' x g) + (f x g')
kk
so the derivative of x^8 times cosx plus the derivative of cosx times x^8
ok i wrote it properly now sorry about that
so do you think you're able to do that?
wait so
