yes , and d(c)=0
where c is a constant
So the answer should be 0 right?
so the answer should be 0, I think
Yeah me too
I'm not sure only know HS level maths as of now
Same
I only understand d(c)=0

that's still 0. The slope of {x} is 1
in the conventional case, you have the differential dy = y(x+dx) - y(x) so if y = x (like here) then you'd have x + dx - x = dx
but in the case of y = [x], you have dy = [x + dx] - [x] = 1 so d[x] = 1
Yeah but the answer should be greater than 0 for the whole
i guess you can see that if you map x to x - a where a is some infinitesimal
x maps to x-a
so dy = [x-a + a] - [x-a] = [x] - [x-a] = 1
the answer should be like 0 * 1 + 1 * 1 + 2 * 1 + 3 * 1 + 4 * 1 ( i think)
since this is more of a discrete sum than integrals at this point
Wait i got the solution
Use x=[x]+{x}
And when you get int xd{x}
You just consider a new variable t with t=x-1 then x-2 till 4
Answer is 0
I calculated
Put [x]=x-{x} in the differential
Then seperate it
xdx-xd{x}
Then use this technique
Hey @tiny bay can you tell me the source of this question
Sorry i found the question from a friend
Ok if you can ,plz ask him which book it is and can you plz dm me the name of the book?
Sure let me ask them
Thanks man
xdx separately then xd{x}
For xd{x} break it into 4 parts
0 to 1 1 to 2 2 to3 and 3 to 4
For 0 to 1 int normally as x={x} for 0 to 1
Then convert the other limits into 0 to 1 too
As {x+1}={x}
So just use x=t+i for rest of them
I can be 1 to 3
To adjust the limits of integral to 0 to 1
After solving i got 0 as the answer
dx-d{x}
Yes
Isse aage ka padle bhai vapas nhi likha jaayega mai mar jaaunga

Picture is not clear
@iron vessel Has your question been resolved?
they just expressed x in terms of y so they could use condition x != 8
Solve the equation for x.
What do you get?
No, that's wrong.
You need to do the same thing to both sides until you get x = something without x.
Draw what?
The way which thing would be written?
Chai T. Rex
What can you do to both sides to get x closer to being on the left by itself?
You almost have it here ^
That's incorrect, though.
Show your work.
What did you do to both sides to get from the first line to the second line?
Chai T. Rex
But that isn't what you got.
What did you do to both sides to get from the first to the second line?
OK, getting better, but it would look like this:[\frac{y}3 = \frac1{x - 8}]
Chai T. Rex
Dividing by 3 would put 3 on the top and on the bottom, and they'd cancel, leaving 1 on the top.
Chai T. Rex
Dividing a fraction by 3 means multiplying the bottom by 3.
Multiplying a fraction by 4 means multiplying the top by 4.
Does that make sense?

Hey, so I’m not confident in the centering and normalization process or how to involve central limit theorem
@sudden canopy Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
It helps if you define what the meaning of pn you wrote even is. Don't use new notation and skip writing down what it means to you
n most likely refers to number of terms
like it normally does
np is number of terms * probably
pn is the probability of a certain term
most likely
Sorry I actually did, I think I forgot a page
Yes I have it here now
You are making it harder to see what is happening by redefining your variables in terms of a new variable $P_n$. You have from the Central Limit Theorem that $$\frac{ \frac{S_n}{n} - p } { \frac{\sqrt{p(1-p)} } {\sqrt{n}} }$$ is standard normal
JessicaK
Now, having established that is standard normal, you want the distribution of just S_n. So your problem is the S_n/n term needs to be just S_n
Thank you, I’m not seeing the relationship between the calculations and the standard normal distribution from googling I see it should be so but I’m not seeing it not sure what rule I’m missing
I don't understand what you mean, I wrote the relationship down
What formula for a standard normal distribution does it resemble?
What do you mean by resemble? The distribution is unique. There is only one
Because when I type the standard normal distribution on google im not able to look at this and see that they are the same
The theorem says that the quantity I wrote down converges in distribution to the standard normal
If you want to make it look the same, you are rederiving the CLT in the special case of a bernoulli distribution, which involves a bit more work than what you are asked
The point being that you are not supposed to be able to clearly see that they are the same. The theorem tells you they are the same after you take the limit as n tends to infinity.
Ok, what is what we calculated called?
Like the standard normal would be the asymptotic distribution
and what is this called
It doesn't have a special name, that's just a probability distribution
Like separate from the Bernoulli?
Thanks

I'm sort of confused by the numerator here
First picture for context. Second picture for what I'm talking about.
I don't understand why we're using addition instead of multiplication. If some assumption of the multiplication rule is violated, what is it?
I don't understand why we can't just do 5^12 + 5^11.

@sage socket Has your question been resolved?
Hey 🙂
this is quite unclear ngl
wait
The reason you can't just do $5^{12} + 5^{11}$ is that your set of 12 dice is ordered, however when you count how many 6's you have, there is no ordering, so $\frac{5^{11}}{6^{12}}$ undercounts the number of ways of rolling just one dice by a factor of $\binom{12, 1}$.
the events are mutually exclusive i guess
thats why you add

(You may edit your message to recompile.)
that's right! otherwise you have to subtract their intersection
👍
sorry for the formatting btw
np
Wait why is it ordered?
It doesnt matter if the first die is a 6 or the last.
I just need two 6's to show out of 12 die
I knew I should have draw a venn diagram
when you count the total number of events in your system, you have $6^{12}$, in other words, the events ${6,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}$ and ${1,6,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}$ are counted as distinct
Corpuscular Crow
but when you are counting up the 6's, the order doesn't matter anymore, so you have to multiply by the ways of changing the order of your 6's
in the case of P(getting one 6), you have $\binom{12}{1}$ places where that 6 could be

Trying to figure out where to put stuff if the formula here is $\beta_2-\beta_1=10log(\frac{I_2}{I_1})$
$\beta_2-\beta_1=10log(\frac{I_2}{I_1})$
mj
this is the part b of the question above ^^
so intensity is 316 times less, I assume it's either -316 or something/316
can't be -316 because log can't be -ve
so my guess is the 2nd one?
if intensity initially is 69
$\beta_2-69=10log(\frac{\beta_2}{316})$

How would i solve this?
you must first raise the integral expression to the 7th power
I have to expand?
is there a way to do it without expanding, as its kinda tedious
$5^{7}\int_{}^{}\left( x^{2}+1 \right)^{7}dx$
Joanna Angel
no, to make other trick
you wud need to have other form of an integral of yours
for example:
$\int_{}^{}x\left( x^{2}+1 \right)^{7}dx$
Joanna Angel
it is very simialr but you can solve it very fast
using substituion
but it is not your case
Would reversed chain rule work?
it is an integration not differentation
but it is simialr
though perosanlly i do not call it this way
there are analogies
What would it be called when u have a composite function and you have to integrate it
alr
this
$\int_{}^{}f\left[ g\left( x \right) \right]g'\left( x \right)\text{ }dx=\t=g\left( x \right),dt=g'\left( x \right)dx\\=\int_{}^{}f\left( t \right)dt$
Joanna Angel
In calculus, integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, reverse chain rule or change of variable
is this sub?
I see
and this wouldnt apply in my equation as there isnt a g' right
yes
but for now
you cant
since
your integral misses it
because yoru teachers
wanted you
to work more
suign expansion
to 7 power
no
becasue you wud add x but insa me tiem you wud add 1/x
so that is ineffective
sad but true
What if i used integration by parts after
would that still
or
no, by parts needs other classes
of functins
like:
multiply times 3 for every 1 that’s multiplies
$\int_{}^{}x^{n}\sin\left( ax \right)dx,\int_{}^{}x^{n}\cos\left( ax \right)dx,\int_{}^{}x^{n}e^{ax}dx$
Joanna Angel
and fwe other too
mayeb it is not my photo, it is wikipedia 🙂

open the channel and formulate your problem helpers going to help soon
wdym
oh like 2 functions in 1
but if i multiply by 10x * 1/10x times the other stuff
wouldnt that be able to

What exactly is the "Moving point " of a parabola, or any function for that matter?
just $y= \sqrt{4ax}$?
Why am. I here
i think 'moving point' just means the set of all midpoints of line segments connecting from the parabola itself to the focus

Linear algebra, reflection matrices
do you know how matricies work?
do you know what the columns of a matrix represent?
like for example if you consider the first column of a matrix as a vector
what does that vector tell you?
?
oh I meant in general
do you know what the first column vector of a matrix tells you
ok
each column vector is where the matrix will map the corresponding standard basis vecotr
vector*
so for example
the first column of a matrix is the vector that the matrix will map (1, 0) to
then the second column is where it will map (0,1) to
$\begin{bmatrix}a&b\c&d\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}1\0\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}a\c\end{bmatrix}$
qianqian07
$\begin{bmatrix}a&b\c&d\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}0\1\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}b\d\end{bmatrix}$
qianqian07
so what this tells us
is that if we know how a linear transformation acts on the vectors (1, 0) and (0, 1)
then we can just use those to determine the matrix
wdym
?
we can't multiply two vectors
when we multiply the matrix on the left
by the vector (0, 1)
it turns out to be (b, d)
which is the second column of the matrix
so basically
the second column of the matrix is the vector which (0, 1) gets mapped to
does that make sense?
👍
now to answer the question
what vectors will (1, 0) and (0, 1) get mapped to?
when we reflect them through the origin
I mean with the transformation described
"the reflection of the point P(x, y) through the origin"
what point does (1, 0) become when reflected through the origin?
yes
yes
and then what does (0,1) get reflected to?
yes
so now
to find the matrix
yes that is correct
👍
its a list of transformations
so each of those matrices do what the description says
👍
that is correct
actually you don't even need to multiply it out
you can just see where (0, 1) gets reflected
and that is automatically the second column
that might make the problem slightly quicker to solve
but your method works too
you could consider (1, 0) and (0, 1) again
where does (1, 0) get rotated to?
should, not could
are you sure?
when we rotate by theta
if you start with (1, 0)
and then you rotate it counterclockwise by theta
what does it become?
it might help to think about it using the unit circle
draw a picture
yes but FYI they usually are referring to counterclockwise rotation in these problems. unless they state otherwise
can you think of a way to write out the vector (1, 0) gets mapped to in terms of theta
(using trig functions)
exactly
so that will be the first column of the matrix
not quite
it will prob help to draw a picture like cwatson suggested
yes
oh wait
sorry I misread
(-1,0) is (-cos(theta),-sin(theta))
that is correct
but you don't really need that
to find the matrix
we want to consider where (0,1) gets mapped
not (-1,0)
close but not quite
the diagram looks right, but check your work
are you sure the cosine goes in the x component?
👍
sorry it's a bit blurry
but you can just consider the right triangle made with the y axis
👍

does integrating f(c+x) also give F(x)?
where all notations hold the usual meaning.
do you see why?
no...
I was looking at a solution online and couldn't get how that happened
oh...
Just read it again, and I guess I get how this step happened here :p
do you know u substitution?
no...
okay
well
you kinda just discovered it lol
since it's an indefinite integral, instead of F(x) you get F(x+c)
Is it different from substituting t?
then why the "u"?
some places just have different variable names
in my country we do the same thing but instead of t=.. we say u=..
but the technique it equivalent
I just learned it as "substitution" so I didn't knew :p
if you were to substitute, idk, u=1+t, du=dt
So it's just skipping steps
then you get $\int \frac{1}{(1+t)^2} dt = \int \frac{1}{u^2} du$
yeah

$=-\frac{1}{u} = -\frac{1}{1+t}$

I'm supposed to solve for x
but I have no idea how, I've tried factoring out an x from the first two terms
but I'm not sure if it's legal to use zero property
to remove the x
and even then, I'm left with x^2-5=0
have you tried gcf
there isn't any common terms here though
can you do that with cubes?
cubes?
like x^3
you can
are you sure? I thought quadratic formula was only for quadratics
because then we have an a, b,c, and d value
Yes, it is only for quadritcs. It does not work for cubic equations.
Like this one
yeah I had a feeling, would be weird putting a 0 in there
I would try some small values for x and see if some of them are roots.
and then doing synthetic division?
In general, cubic equations are very hard to solve so usually, you have to assume that it's a nice one.
2 is a root here
Yes!
the only left is, you can factor it by grouping
Sounds like a great idea
the easiest way is probably guessing and checking I suppose

Need help with first step
no
mileage is how many miles your vehicle can travel by burning 1 gallon of fuel
in other words mileage (in MPG) is distance (in miles) divided by fuel consumption (in gallons)
(the same way speed is distance divided by time)
so then
i would do
this is something that you yourself could have (and imo should have) looked up
the units are literally saying the answer
also tbh "see unknown word => ask explicitly about unknown word, or google it yourself"
,calc 385 / 22
Result:
17.5
like you could say "what the fuck is mileage" or something
you thought that you knew, but then i asked you if you knew, and you answered no. what gives?
but english remains hard for me too
czech
ok

because i wasnt sure
ah...
So do I need to do something else to the 17.5
What grade are you in?
9
you'd need to round it to the correct number of significant digits
which is 2 here if we look at it strictly and formally
but just 17.5 might be fine too
Rounded to correct number would be 18 then
seems so

The problem states that a sailor takes steps in such a way that with a probability of 1/2, he takes one step forward, and with a probability of 1/2, he takes a step 0.5 meters backward. Using a normal approximation to the binomial distribution, determine the probability that after 300 steps, the sailor will be at a distance of less than 105 meters from his starting point. Express the result using the cumulative distribution function of the normal distribution N(0,1).
can someone check whether this response is correct?
https://chat.openai.com/share/7966cb74-c213-48f4-853a-ef1ad3284405
i came up exactly with the same solution but it seems too easy
@agile narwhal Has your question been resolved?
The question is a bit unclear. Is it 1/2 that he takes a 1m step forward or a 0.5m step forward? Either way gpt is giving the incorrect mean (it is assuming a step backwards is 0 meters back). You should not use gpt for math
@agile narwhal Has your question been resolved?
It's 1/2 that he takes 1m forward
How to fix it?
I thought it is correct since I came up with exactly the same solution
$E[X]=\sum_{x\in \text{Im}X}xP(X=x)$
Cure Grace
Use that to find the mean for 1 trial, and the variance for 1 trial, then multiply by n to get the mean and variance for 300 trials
To approximate binomial with normal you can use formulas
expected value of binomial = np
Variance = np(1-p)
And then you can plug it in into normal distribution
I do not think you can use a binomial here (maybe if you transform the problem you can). Binomial distributions give the probability of k success of a Bernoulli rvs. The issue is that right now each step is not a bernoulli trial (since instead of 0 and 1 the possible values are -0.5 and 1)
It's mentioned in problem assignment that it's binomial
@agile narwhal Has your question been resolved?
@agile narwhal Has your question been resolved?
i can't open the link
@agile narwhal Has your question been resolved?
You can use the binomial, since the function of the random variable is so simple.
I.e. define a forward step as a success
Then if you have k successes in n steps, you move a distance of 1*k-0.5(n-k) meters forward

is xy=1 a rectangular hyperbola?
are the asymptotes perpendicular?
do you know that xy=1 is a hyperbola? if so, that's all you need :)
If you rotate the coordinates system

I got question i but I am stuck on ii. The answers are provided but I cannot seem to get to the general solution. I did find the characteristic equation with the the 2's but cannot seem to figure out how to get 2+t with the particular solution
@restive river Has your question been resolved?
you're expecting a polynomial, so look for a polynomial particular solution
And you can easily argue that it must be of degree 1
I am not sure on how to solve it then because I tried ct^2
that's not a general polynomial

hello I have to draw this graph
could anyone help me on how to do that
I firstly started with the graph of e^x
and then got the graph of e^|x| by reflecting the graph in the +ve axis wrt to y axis
however I am stuck on how to get graph of e^-|x|
I mean e^x and e^-x aren't that similar. May I suggest plotting a few points to get an idea of what you're looking at?
well I was planning to first draw the graph of y and then get of |y| from that
can't we transform f(x) into f(-x) by just reflecting through y-axis
I don't think so. Are you sure you don't mean f(x) and -f(x)
Ah, OK. But remember |x| is always at least 0, so you just have the lower parts of those two graphs
e^-|x| will always be less than 1
hm ye
why only lower parts?
|x| is greater than zero in above parts too
Are you sure? Remember, we're looking at -|x|
So, you can never get e^2 for example because that would mean -|x| = 2 or |x| = -2
So you can draw e^-x on the right side and then flip around the y axis to get e^-(-x) on the left side
and that should just give me e^-|x|
after that I can shift it down by 1/2
I think I will be able to do it
thanks

i know what the taylor series is but i cant seem to get a correct answer
can someone tell me the correct answer please
Just find the Taylor series for all the options
Note you should be able to eliminate b and d right away. Why?
the first term being 1 eliminates 2 of the choices from the get go
yeah exactly

Hello guys, can somebody please help me understand how my teacher get this answer
while if i use wolfalpha i get a different answer (of even if i use my own calculator)
The strange part is that the answer my teacher gets is excactly double what my calculator/wolframalpha gets
If it helps this is G(s):
$G(s)=\frac{1-s}{s^2+2+s}$

simplifying u get 100x + z = 27y
then just put in random values
oh wait nahh im stupid
i found a better way to do it
ok so yyy can be 000, 111, 222, ..... , 999
so when u divide it by 3, the middle digit should still be same
cuz 3 * (xyz) = yyy
i believe thats uh
444
yeah 444
444/3 = 148
x = 1, y = 4, z = 8
@desert arch Has your question been resolved?
well, you can think of more restrictions first.
Since the result is a number of 3 digits, x has to be lower or equal to 3.

It is given that f is differentiable, f(a)=b and f(b)=a with a<b and I have to show that an x at (a,b) exists so that f(x)=x
If I use the Bolzano theorem I can prove that there’s an x so that f(x)=0
But idk what to do about f(x)=x
I think in this case the intermediate value theorem is going to work much better
Bolzano's theorem can be deducted from the intermediate value theorem, but to use it you have to know that a and b have opposite signs
What if I use the proof of the intermediate value theorem?
Which is basically Bolzano
I let f(x)-x=g(x)
I figured it out thanks for the help!

I have 2 quizzes tomorrow. one in limits and continuity, the second is in inverse functions, exponential and logarithmic functions. I know little about them, not much
I have around 4 hours of potential studying
one quiz is optional
could you guys give me some guidance if any?
I want to pass one with a good grade if possible
its only calc1 so it shouldnt be that complicated
which quiz is easier to get comfortable with, understand and get good enough at in this period of time?
or/and can I get good enough at both in this short period of time?
also. do you guys have any good resources for quiz material like those? ones I could get good info from within 4 hours
you can prob learn limits and continuity in the next hour
wow
or next 2 hours if you include practice problems
thats really good.
inverse functions, exponential and logarithmic functions
does this including integrating/differentiating them?
it doesnt
or just the algebra of them
maybe optimise for the second quiz then
that stuff is ezpz
im sure you can get an A in the second with only 4 hours
- get a B/A in the first
like infinite limits?
but yeah
Oh wow
are you doing limits at infinity?
thats so nice
as well?
Not fully sure yet
what about infinite limits at infinity?
my teachers notes arent that good either
they feel difficult to understand
all over the place
handwritten
I'm not, no
okay you can just have my notes if you want
first semester actually
like my professor's notes for calculus 1
I would love that.

why cant you do division on both sides of a modular congruence
because dividing both sides of a congruence by a number may not always have a unique solution due to the presence of modular inverses and whatever
If the divisor and the modulus share a common factor, it can lead to multiple solutions or no solution at all for example
is that the same as multiplicative inverses?
wdym
modular inverse?
Yes division is multiplying by multiplicative inverse. Issue is not everything has an inverse mod n
in limited circumstances you can.
yeah basically

Okay so idk where am I going wrong in the problem:
for a,b in $\mathbb R$ find the maximum value of $\left(\left(1-a\right)\left(1-b\right)+\left(1-\sqrt{1-a^{2}}\right)\left(1-\sqrt{1-b^{2}}\right)\right)$
B-eard
I let:
Oh hell naw
$a=\sin\theta,\ b=\cos\theta$\$⇒\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)+\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)$\$=2\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)$\$\sqrt{2}\cdot\frac{1-\sin\theta+1-\cos\theta}{2}\ge\sqrt{2}\cdot\sqrt{\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)}$\$\left(\frac{2-\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}\right)^{2}\ge2\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)$\$⇒2\left(1-\sin\theta\right)\left(1-\cos\theta\right)\le3-2\sqrt{2}$
That was exactly my reaction when this question was given to me on a co-ordinate test
well presumably the maximum is some (a,b) that can't be expressed as (sin(theta),cos(theta))
well you can still get some of the convenience of the sqrt(1-sin^2) trick by a = sin(theta), b = cos(some other letter)
since that covers all (a,b)
would it tho?
i don't know how much that actually helps but it does at least get rid of the square roots
couldnt u try diff?
it might seem impossible
but actually doesnt look that tough
sure I would try that on a 1hr test with 20 qs
💀
for sqrt(1-a^2) to exist we do need -1 <= a <= 1, so it is valid to assume it's sin or cos of something
cos(x) is limited to the interval [-1,1] so like if b=2 then idt I would be able to express it as cos(x)
Oh okay I see
if b=2 then you have $(1-a)(1-2) + (1-\sqrt{1-a^2})(1-\sqrt{-3})$
bee [it/its]
Yeah yeah I get it
u can but then x isnt real
so maybe try with cos(x) and sin(y)?
yeah
by assuming sin x and cos x
u made the hidden assumption that a^2 + b^2 = 1
so u maximised the expression w.r.t. to that assumption
yeah making it sin and cos of x gets you just points on the unit circle
when we actually want an entire square region around the origin
huh?
-1 <= x <= 1, -1 <= y <= 1, is a square
oh rightttt
wait what if we view this as a transformation?
to the square?
blue = what you get with (sin theta,cos theta)
red = all the actually allowed points
yes yes I got that
what about this??
i guess you could do that but i don't really see how it would make the computation any easier
Idk LA shit methods?
well it's not linear so applying linear algebra would be difficult
well i dont remember exactly but I remember micheal penn turning a function into a matrix
well I end up with a mess
$1-\left(\sin x+\cos x+\sin y+\cos y\right)+\sin x\cos y+\cos x\sin y$
I dont see a way to get further
identities 🙂
hm
ok yeah that's less helpful than i was hoping
B-eard
notice that sin x cos y + cos x sin y is sin(x+y)
sure
and then
sin x + cos x is equal to sqrt(1+2sin2x)
so
$1- (\sqrt{1+\sin 2x} + \sqrt{1+\sin 2y}) + \sin(x+y)$
wait shit fuck that doesnt lead anywhere
ItzKraken
hmm I havent done SHM properly
oh okay
well you are going into shit that idt should be brought in
hmm
well theres one only 1 thing left i can think of
speed calculus
this poc is a symmetric multivariable function, and symmetric functions generally have their maxima when all the variables are equal.
so on setting x=y, I get
3-2(sinx+cosx)
now for this to be maximum, sinx+cosx should be minimum which is -sqrt(2)
so effectively i get the maximum as 3+2sqrt(2)

which is indeed the answer
Hmm
'generally' I think u would need to have the conditions set
eh if it was a MCQ it doesnt even matter ig
Is this the whole problem?
yeah
it was an objective question with four options
excluding the options, this exact thing was the question, the same wording, the same font and the same spacing
@rugged sparrow Has your question been resolved?
OK, I got the answer
Use AM GM on 1-a and 1-b let it be eqn 1
and then on 1-sqrt(1-a^2) and 1-sqrt(1-b^2) let it be eqn 2
then take the square of eqn1 and eqn2
then add both eqns
I am way too lazy to write in latex

okay just a quick something, when i'm using the bisection method, I index the iterations right? I write the iteration number in the table I'm doing, well I've seen some people start with the iteration indexed 1, while I start with the iteration indexed 0, because in my head I'm thinking that I already have the initial values and since I'm using the bisection method I'm already gonna be doing at least one iteration so the initial should be 0, but then a friend of mine said well we're searching for the root, which can turn out to be found through the initial values if f(xM) = 0 so it would make sense to start from index 1, so I'm here to ask about which index I should start with

I don’t think this matters? Are you looking for search depth? Otherwise the result is just the result of the bisection
I know it doesn't matter that much but I really want to know which is more correct with good reasoning
Then I would say step zero is before the main loop and step one is the first round of bisection, but I think it’s up to you.

Hey I wanna ask a question of physics if that's ok as no one is online in the physics server.
Question: Why does current not depend on the speed of electrons?
Because what matters is the net flow of the electrons, not the individual speed of each one
Each electron flows randomly through the cable (assuming a cable), so it can go in any direction inside the cable in a random way, for up, down, back instead of only forward through the cable
What about photo electric current?
Wdym?
I mean what if we place a positively charged sheet in front of it wouldn't it give them a direction?
It would lead to a repulsive attraction
Let's just consider a straight electric field in the wire then wouldn't all electrons flow opposite to the electric field in a straight line?
Then the motion of electrons wouldn't be random would it?
In this case if we can increase the speed of electrons in the wire would the current be affected?
And i am not talking about increasing the voltage just increasing the speed of electrons
The motion of electrons are almost always random
Even in a straight electric field?
Wouldn't they be attracted to the opposite of the electric field if the direction of the electric field is straight then wouldn't they all travel in a straight line?
I mean... mathematically yeah, because I = dC/dt, and since more loads are going through a cable section in the same time interval (more Coulombs) so yeah I would increase
But i don't have sure if it's as linear as it seems like
Yeah I was thinking about the same thing
Yep
Even if it's not the ideal case it should have some effect
But even with that, there are random motion
I was studying photo electric current where we strike photons on a metal sheet to produce electricity
But did u see anywhere that speed doesn't affect the current?
There it is given that photo electric current doesn't depend on the frequency
Oh
But then I thought if we increase the frequency of striking photons wouldn't the speed of electrons increase?
So is the magnitude of current really independent of the speed of electrons?
I can't answer with 100% sure, but I think it depends on the speed
If we increase the frequency of striking photons then energy given to electrons will increase in the form of kinetic energy hence increasing speed
But in books it's written it doesn't depend on it's speed

did you mean $\frac{1}{2-\sqrt{3}}$?
Ann
cause you wrote $\frac12-\sqrt{3}$, and that wasn't what you intended
Ann
anyway: 1/(2 - sqrt(3)) is the correct value but it isn't in the right form.
do you know how to rationalize denominators like this one?
oh yh i do
okay let me try that
Alright i got the right answer
But ive also tried the second part
And i got (cos^2A) / (2 - sqrt(3))^2
because i squared it , then divided it by cos^2A and then flipped it to get cot^2A to equal to my answer
but its wrong

im seeing conflicting opinions: are preimages and inverse images (not inverses!) the same?
i would say they're two words for the same thing, in my experience. what would the difference be? 
Couldn't find an attached image in the last 10 messages.
notice the usage of preimage and inverse image separately
oh, so they use preimage to mean an element of f^{-1}({y})
i guess they like to do that
even that part is confusing
i don't think most people make the distinction, and it doesn't matter so much since you can phrase this def of preimage in terms of inverse images anyway
because they write ALL preimages as f^-1(y)
not one!
i changed it myself to be f^-1(Y) because i thought it makes abs no sense
that seems right. instead of f^{-1}({y}) they write f^{-1}(y)
sorry, was doing a covid test 
lol nice
but what do u mean
its not right
f^-1 of a single image giving ALL preimages?
of a single element, you mean. yeah. like take the function f(x) = x^2. they are saying that f^{-1}(1) = {1,-1}; they're writing f^{-1}(1) instead of the more annoying f^{-1}({1}). so i guess that part is "wrong". but they're saying thats what theyre going to do to spare your eyes from tons of parenthesis
so now its right 
since they defined the notation to mean that
note how a function is not necessarily bijective. Hence "all preimages"
just because f(x_0)=y_0 does not mean f(x_1) couldn't also be =y_0
yet for any g:=f^{-1}, g(y_0) must be defined as one SINGLE value
aaaaaah
i see now
there could be more preimages
but
it's not all the preimages of the set Y
the point is that the preimage js not necessarily uniquely defined
yeah
take for example f from R->R with f(x)=x²
exactly
what's f^{-1}?
but for any inverse you define, you can only have one value for f^{-1}(4)
thus we simply define "the square root is the positive inverse of the function x²"
-root(x) is also an inverse of x² though

whenever im given two points like this here (A and B)
and i want to find the vector AB
does the order matter when i do x2-x1 , y2-y1 , z2-z1
like if a vector AB is asked to find, do i only have to write x2 from B and x1 from A because its AB (B is after A hence indicating that the vector is going from A to B)
Suppose $(x_1,y_1) , (x_2,y_2)$ be two points
.doc
If you want you tip of the vector to be at (x_2,y_2)
you will make the vector as $<x_2-x_1, y_2-y_1>$
okay so the order does matter
.doc
my friend kept saying it doesnt
indeed it does
can i dm you with a specific part of a video its in hindi so ig you'll understand can u just confirm if he did it wrong or correct cuase its really conflicting
You can easily verify this by taking some examples
Eg: A=(2,3), B=(5,2)
<3,-1> is different from <-3,1> right?
one vector is a flipped of the other one
I sadly don’t know hindi
I can try
ahh man
its just the calculation tho
you'll be able to understand
yeah ik this but idk why that other person did it like that
