bot is ded
so sed
Hey, since the bot is dead, I will ask my question here ^^
I have to find a and b knowing the fact that a-b= 21 and ppmc(a,b) = 280
I find no solution because a = 21 -b = 3(7) -b and 280 = 2^3 (5)(7) so a can't be written as 3*smth
Am I wrong somewhere?
that's wrong
cause a = 56 and b = 35 works
essentially the strategy is to assume a and b are both multiples of 7
so if a = 7m and b = 7n
we have m - n = 3 and lcm(m, n) = 40
we can easily find m, n that work
m = 8 and n = 5
(7 because it's a factor of both 21 and 280)
ppmc?
I'm assuming lcm
it's lcm sorry
@fossil locust Okay I see and then I can use an integer factorization to find all the solutions
yeah lcm(m, n) = 40 doesn't have many candidates
you can't factorise this
yes
if you want to write the proof down, it's cause if a is not a multiple of 7, then b also can't be a multiple of 7
the LCM would thus not be a multiple of 7 - contradiction
Is this still being used?
@fossil locust so I find that the unique solution is 8 and 5
as you said
thank you for the help!!
No it's not
no worries!
This question is solved using a Poisson Distribution with PDF. But isn't the premise of a PDF that it can't be an exact value, but a range of them?
I see Revision Village lol
LOL
trauma 
Oh damn you know Day as well
this is a discrete probability distribution
Damn two IB students?
oh right yeah I know day
Damn small world
Now I'm even more confused.
PDF are continous?
Aren't PMF's discrete?
So why call it PoissonPDF and not PoissonPMF
That just makes everything more confusing
they did not use a PDF at all
where do you see that?
Look at the answer
i think it's a calculator thing
i don't recall mine having PMFs
I mean is PDF and PMF interchangable in IB?
Alright so all Poisson Distributions are Discrete, even though the calculator says PoissonPDF wherein PDF is continous?
i guess so
oh jesus
yep
checked it online too xd
does your calculator say that?
It says PDF
it just might be a typo on RV's end, i have seen typos in their texts before
Do your calculators say PDF and PMF?

Can someone explain why case two, epsilon is root L epsilon. Like, how are we supposed to interpret the question to get it like that
if you're trying it out on your own, you're supposed to reach this first
I managed to get the conjugate part
and then say $|\sqrt{a_n}-\sqrt{L}| < \frac{|a_n-L|}{\sqrt{L}}$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
but after that, it didnt really make sense what to do afterwards
does this still make sense
what does the root an go?
denominator1 > denominator 2
so quantity1 < quantity2
ohh
ok
that makes sense
but how is epsilon root L epislon. That just doesn't make sense to me
your objective is to show $|\sqrt{a_n}-\sqrt{L}| < \varepsilon$ for any $\varepsilon > 0$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
so fix some $\varepsilon > 0$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
you know there exists $N$ such that for $n > N$, $|a_n-L| < \varepsilon'$, with $\varepsilon' > 0$ some arbitrary value that we'll determine next
rafilou is not not born in 2003
so now because of this
$|\sqrt{a_n}-\sqrt{L}| < \frac{\varepsilon'}{\sqrt{L}}$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
now the question is, which value of $\varepsilon'$ makes us get the result we desire?
rafilou is not not born in 2003
oohhhh
ok
that makes a lot of sense
now
that acutalyl cleared up a lot of confusion

so find the 7th term?
-6*7
Hint ||the sum of the first seven terms||
Yeah I think you know what is next?
the exercise has q different formula for that
Yeah
N*(n+1)/2
So basically 7*(7+1)/2
Hmm?
I mean subtract the sum of the first 6 terms from the sum of the first 7 terms to get the seventh term.
Or are you looking for $\sum _{k=7} ^n a_k?$
David
Okay
But I suppose they're asking me to get the 7th term using that damn formula
$\sum _{k=1} ^7 a_k - \sum _{k=1} ^6 a_k$
David
N^2 - 6n
Yes, this makes sense but
what about using that formula the book gave me
Maybe doing the exact same thing
except now
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
No
Alright.
Send it.
Okay determine the value of a_7 given that...
Yes.
Okay. I do not need to use the formula, then?
With the formula n²-6n
And
You do
Ah so
Replace the sum with the formula n²-6n
And put in the values of n
Then simplify
Pretty much 7^2-6*7 - 6^2-6X6?
Yes
Thank you, thank you.
Wait it's "+6×6" not -6×6
-(n²-6n)
Yes
Distribute the minus
No problem 😃
So, I think I have it.
Lemme do the formula, then.
So, when I wanna look up for the value of a term
I just gotta do sigma of my term - n-1
What is your answer 
right?
Yup
Well, I gotta do the calculation yet!
😅
First, I wanna get my breakfast.
Okay

can someone write the bottom right (circled blue) in latex plsss
wdym in latex?
Also Ka is a pretty funny topic. You will get a lot of fun

..
yeahh it’s quite interesting
My tip: do not waste time with x^2+x+n equations.
You can always omit the -x on the bottom side.
Since realistically, if ka is so low, x will be so low it won't affect the initial concentración of reactive
i think frac should be outside the {}
ohh im not learning quadratic equations with Ka the content doesn’t go that much in depth
i need the bottom right

Could anyone example this:
How can the i be simply absorbed by B, when it is clearly stated that it is a real constant
If we wanted only the real part, would it not be A 2 cos(x)?
If B is real, than we have changed to equality, because sin(x) is meant to be imaginary
I have seen some videos now and in most there is no mention of B having to be a real constant, maybe this page is just wrong?

how could i solve this diophantine
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
distribute the 4 and solve for m in terms of n
m = 4
okay what about 1
m = -2
i want where m is negative
why?
because you are solving for where $m<0$
Nyxzore
im solving for the opposite
my bad
im solving for m > 0
alright, so we wnt where m is positive
how do i get an ordered pair of solutions tho
it helps to draw a number line
so if i plug in any of of n less than zero i get a positive value for m right?
yes
no m>0 where n is ...

why does f(f(f(x))) have the point (1,1) included in it
isn't x= 1 not part of f(x)'s domain
it doesn't
but desmos shows otherwise
maybe you haven't zoomed in enough
no i did
if you click on it it should say (1, undefined)
alright I saw the same thing
so I guess that's probably just some kind of numerical error on Desmos' part
so it 1,1 should be a removable discontinuity right
yes indeed
you have to understand that f(x) and f(f(x)) may have different domains
they are different functions
do you know about log?
and composition of f on f
lets say f(x) = 2x
and lets define x as logt
so f(x) = 2x and also 2 logt
now f(x) and f(t) are the same function
but will have different domains
t > 0 and not 1
while x can be any number
get it?
yea
And I don't think it's standard that f°g would not have the domain of g as the domain
if you need to restrict the domain of g then you'd restrict it explicitly
hmm
f°g does not exist if the image of g is not a subset of the domain of f
f(x) = 1 /1-x
f(f(x)) = 1 - 1/x
(used wa)
so x=1 is valid for f(f(x))
,w simplify 1 /(1 - 1 /(1-x))
yeah in this case you have to restrict the domain of f a fair bit
but for 1 to be taken by f(f(x)), 1 should first be taken by f(x)
doesn't work this way.
f(x) = (x^2 - 1)/(x-1) is also equal to x + 1, but its still undefined for x=1
u have to remove 1 and 0 from f(x) for f(f(f(x))) to be defined
right?
makes sense
f(0)=1 (and x=0 is the only such input) so if we disallow 0 and 1 then the image of f is a subset of the domain of f and then the composition is well-defined
maybe desmos made the same error
yes exactly
thanks

does this make any sense?
Yes but why write it like that
And not $c \cdot dt = d \tau$
Nyxzore
cuz this makes no sense to me
for an assignment, question wants it in a different form
And not $c = \frac{d \tau}{dt}$
Nyxzore
Is that better for understanding?
so $\tau$ is a function of t?
Hemesfere
but its x(t) im guessing
Nyxzore
this is with regards to proper spacetime right?
or whatever it's called
basically it just tells you how to convert speed into better units for when you factor relativity
oh wait sorry it's not proper time, u're just converting units
yeah so this basically just tells u how speed changes when we convert units
? what's wrong with it?
I was just taught to always work with relations in their simplist form
yeah but if i gave you speed with normal units
and you needed to convert it into units t' = ct instead
then it's just that

how do i solve this
draw the sign diagram for each of the factors
wdym
Do you have a textbook?
this is a very standard problem
but it's difficult to communicate via text
kinda not rlly
like it only has the problems not the way to solve thm 💀💀
Way simpler let's try $f(x) = (2x+3)(3x)$
Solve for where f(x) >0
You'd work out the zeros and then put them on a number line
Or sign diagram
whats the dollar symbol

too long
bacc (unhelpful)
oh i see
you can use the identity multiple times
so 99+cos^2(0)+sin^2(100)?
99 pairs
sin²(1)+cos²(1) until sin²(99)+cos²(99)

I don't know how to start this question
theres a missing word
There is? What would it be?
rate at which the distance from the ship to the lighthouse (...) when it is 12 miles away
Ohh, there is no hour for me to calculate?
no hour?
if the ship isnt accelerating either then this just seems like unit conversion
(am i missing something)
Yeah, because I believe I've got to find the slope of miles over hours. Which is with unit conversion? I think?
What was it? :0
i was thinking of the ship going on a straight line to the lighthouse
you might want to draw your diagram from an above pov than the side view
I guess you're right. I drew that drawing because I thought it'd help me but it's probably not accurate XP
Like this?
Ohh
since we know the rate the bottom side of that triangle changes at
we can try find the rate the hypotenuse changes
may need to change to mph first though
if you havent
seems right
can you find an equation for the distance, D
in terms of the length of the undrawn base, B?
5^2+b^2=12^2
25+b^2=144
b^2=119
b=√(119)
thats its B in this snapshot sure, but we didnt need to know that
replace 12 with D
a^2+b^2=12 ??
not quite
What exactly am I trying to find again?
equation for the distance between the ship and lighthouse
hypotenuse is D at some time t
12 = 17.2617/t ??
@velvet thunder Has your question been resolved?
@velvet thunder Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> Can I get some help on this :0
Can you post the question down here again?
I was told that was nautical miles per hour
I don't think so? Based on the question, I assumed that I'd have to do something with 5 miles and 15 knots to get the rate for 12 miles?
Ok ima google what a knot is real quick
passes by
I think it means the light house is directly across the ship
so like "your x distance is 5 miles away"
use relative rates + pythogorean thm
I can answer that
to solve this q
Ok this question has so many problems
First of all, are we assuming the speed is constant
Second, does the rate mean the time?
?? I can ask the person who made this question but I likely won't get an answer until tomorrow-
Third, if first and second is not true, then the rate is not calculable
no
the assumptions are obvious
speed is constant
because we are measuring it from the lightouse
not the gorund
how is the distance from the light house changing w/ respect to time
that's what they mean by rate
uyes
the rate of change of the hypotenuse
5^2 + 12^2 = c^2
25 + 144 = c^2
169 = c^2
13 = c
Like this??
dyk implicit differentiation
It's for find y' right?
mhm
What do I do with that though?
thats ur answer
Just 13? But what about y' ?
Like this? Because 13 is the rate of change, I made the slope equation with 15 because it's a number we haven't used yet

How do I find the supremum and the infumum of this set. I need to justify my answer with a proof.
it would help to simplify the fraction
So I would rewrite it by doing:
3 + 2/n^2
it would also be good to prove monotonicity
how so
could you start by multiplying the top and bottom by 1/n^2?
$\frac{3+\frac{2}{n^2}}{1}}$

first is it monotone increasing or decreasing?
monotone increasing or monotone decreasing
monotone increasing
if its monotone increasing then its first term must be the smallest term correct?
so youre saying that the terms get bigger?
Im gonna be honest im kinda lost haha
With sets, is it always a different approach or when you know the steps you can just apply it every time
if something is monotone increasing that means the set looks like this $p_1<p_2<p_3<...<p_n$
Joshii
i feel like the better term is monotone non-decreasing cuz that includes the case where they're all equal
basically if you compare two terms, the one that comes later in the sequence is bigger
monotone decreasing, on the other hand, can you guess what it is?
basically if we can show the set is always incresing or always decresing, if we can find a "first term" that term must be the smallest term in the set
opposite of that
can you be more specific
which is half of what you gotta do lol
its better to think of it as every element is smaller than the element before
show that one term is bigger than the next term after it
sorry this is probably hard with 2 people 😭
i'm trying to see if i can explain it or not
if you show this, then if you pick any two terms in the sequence, you can follow the chain the first term is bigger than the next, which is bigger than the next, which is the bigger than the next and so on until you get to the other term
what you want to try to show is this: E_n > E_(n+1)
Yes
do you know where to start?
well what I would do is since n is appart of N*
I would start with putting 1
the smallest number of N*
but again that doesnt prove anything, its just putting a value to n
If we put n it stays the same: (3n^2 + 2)/n^2
If we put n+1 it becomes: (3n^2+6n+5)/(n^2+2n+1)
good
we can simplify n+1
now we have to use that to show the inequality is true
oh you forgot the +2 in the numerator
yea haha
then after I show n and n+1, how do I show the inequality
oh okay so when you look at it for the first time youre like this set defenetly gets smaller
and you prove that by showing that E_n > E_(n+1)
yup
alright hold on ill write that on a piece of paper
alright
but im not getting where I can find the supremum and the infumum
once you prove monotone decreasing, the supremum is the first term since its the biggest and the infimum is the limit since the sequence keeps getting smaller
can we assume the infimum is 0
no
Im just so confused becuase my teacher gives us how to do stuff and what I see on internet (which is what you say) is different
Oh okay
Do you have any good youtube videos you could send me so I could learn that
I dont want you spending like an hour since I have problems with that loll
i dont know if i have any
Oh okay
ill check the rest on youtube by my own, im sure there are videos that explain it
thanks
youre welcome

,rotate
since im bad at vectorial algebra but somewhat good at geometry, ill try to check it
now im in doubt, fuck
i mean u can use the working ifi it helps
but i got it wrong
so its probs the wrong working
@lunar kiln Has your question been resolved?
yeah, i found a geometric way to prove
this is kinda iffy and probably comes from my "imagination" with trig, so i may not be explaining myself in the most appropiate manner
with any given rhombus you can create two isosceles triangles from it, if you draw out this imaginary "90 degree lines from the corners A and C, which is kinda what the problems asks, you form a rectangle and two rectangular triangles.
since two of these rectangles are created, and they all share the same lengths, their lines must be lined up with the bigger diagonal of the rhombus
this also is related to the orthocenter of any triangle
and since the two sides line up with 90 degrees each + with the diagonal, the original idea is true
huh
i see
but it has to be with vector geo bro
thanks a lot for hits but like ineed vector geo practice
based on that, it surely has to be something related to the sum of vectors forming a rhombus or a triangle if divided by two
if you can prove it as a general thing, yeah
thats what i need help with
i tried doing that
and like there was too many vriables in the enda
ill try to make myself do vectorial algebra for once
first of all, to make things easier, consider D = 0;0 and C = a; 0
like if they were on the x axis
like so, vector (v) = DC will have length a
right
yeah i just pu tit as a
therfroe ab is also a
while trying to do vectors i found an even easier geometric proof, lol
im not into vectors, my minds cant wrap itself around them

by contradiction, prove that a quadratic with all odd coefficients has no rational root
they aren't necessarily
wdym
b/a and c/a aren't necessarily integers
yeah but theres an added restriction thst the roots are all integers
where?
i deduced it
did you prove it?
In fact, the roots cannot be integers, since you would just have odd+odd+odd=0 or even+even+odd=0, which is impossible
for finding the roots, sqrt(D) must be rational, so sqrt(b^2-4ac) must be rational, since a,b,c are integers then D must also be an integer, so sqrt(D) must also be an integer, since the formula for the roots are (-b±sqrt(D))/2a then uhh
ok i found a slight flaw
i mean like if it were to exist it had to be an integer
hm fuck ok ig back to the drawing board
just let p/q be a supposed rational root (p,q coprime)
and work it out from here
(hint : parity)
this would work if a=1
yeah thats what i realized
(to prove that the roots must be integers)
er technichally wouldnt it still not work if a=1 cause like sqrt(D) could aswell be odd
even so, how is -b +- sqrtD even?
yeah it just becomes the same thing as I said above, odd+odd+odd or even+even+odd
b is odd and so is sqrtD
because b^2-4ac is odd
yes ok
infact b and sqrtD always have the same parity
like if sqrtD is an integer
i.e a monic polynomial can't have rational roots that are not integers
yes because algebraic integer + rational = integer
hm
with integer coeffs
well if one of the roots is a rational one then both are rational right
yes bc of vieta law
what are the possible parities of p,q
odd odd, even odd, odd even?
one of them doesn't add up
:p
uhh sorry brb
ok i did some tbinking
im guessing odd/odd=odd and even/odd=even
so uf its (o,o) that means its odd+odd+odd=0 which isnt possivle
if its (e,o) then its even+even+odd=0 which isnt possivle
for (o,e) idk
what does odd/odd = odd mean
and even/odd = even
is 4/3 even?
yeah i have no ckue what you meant ngl
oh wait
ap^2/q^2+bp/q+c=0
is this what you meant lol?
yes
oh lmao
@solid osprey Has your question been resolved?
aa how :(
hold on i just have a lightbulb
(ap^2+qbp)/q^2+c=0
(odd+even)/even+c=0
odd+even is odd, odd/even wont be an integer thus (o,e) doesent work
well that enliminates one of them
you know you can just put everything in the same denominator
(ap^2+bpq+cq^2)/q^2=0
ap^2+bpq+cq^2 = 0

Hey
I have recently found out by myself that
π = -iln(-1)
(exact value)
However now I'm trying to find a way to write the exact value of e
Can someone help for this limits and thx
not using sigma, but a literal way to write it
I'm already using this channel
so anyways
Does anyone know if there's already been an expression which is exactly equals to e
apart from euler's and bernoulli's definitions of e
The following is a list of significant formulae involving the mathematical constant π. Many of these formulae can be found in the article Pi, or the article Approximations of π.
I think this is what you are looling for
Looking*
By the same equation you could get e = (-1)^(-i/pi)
not π
Oh oops
im trying to find a way to express e without π tho
sorry for not precising
There is a limit definition
no
but thats not what i need
tell me how
The mathematical constant e can be represented in a variety of ways as a real number. Since e is an irrational number (see proof that e is irrational), it cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers, but it can be represented as a continued fraction. Using calculus, e may also be represented as an infinite series, infinite product, o...
It is according to wolfram alpha
in what way is -i ln 1 = pi
tell me how π ≠ -iln(-1)
bruh
mb, ur correct then
as in?
how so
and wdym you're trying to find e
like a representation?
the exact value of e written as a literal expression
Well it’ll be harder to do without pi, limits or sums
ren
and using this, e is the number such that e^i pi = -1
which is precisely what is mentioned in the famous euler's identity "e^i pi + 1 = 0"
e has a lot of representations, frankly
e is the constant such that (log_e x)' = 1/x, the constant such that (e^x)' = e^x, etc
those are two from basic calc
well three, including the limit
Would $e = (\cos(1) + i \sin(1))^{-i}$ be fine with you?
FirstNameLastName
yh exactly
thats how I found it
Degrees wouldn’t make sense here
H SHIT
MY MISTAKE
i did ^-1
yh works
but its ugly lmaoooo
but it does work
and thanks
Np
Gonna be very difficult without pi…
ye
ik
but i found π without e
so I should be able to find e without π
(okay maybe not)
Well unless you count ln as using e
true
But using Eulers formula I think the two solutions so far are the prettiest solutions there are
(If you don’t wanna use pi directly, that is)
That’s nice
Just inserted your solution for pi?
this
i changed π with my definition of it
which is
-iln(-1)
and I simplified
Though i must say
to get
Using ln to define e may look nice
e = (-1)^1/ln(-1)
mhm
But it’s kinda recursive isn’t it
wel
yes
but
its the best i can do till now
till i find a new way
or else
wait no that wont work
You can just write 2^(1/ln(2))
Any n^(1/ln(n)) should work as long as n is different from 1 and larger than 0
ln doesn’t have to be extended to the negative numbers
yh
but then
π equals
-2iln(i)
that works too
but i see you
WAIT THATS INSANE
i mean
idk
but its cool that e equals this
.
its cool
It’s follows directly from e^ln(n) = n
Which is why it’s recursive
ln is defined through this property (which used e)
yh
You’re defining e by inverting the definition of ln (which is defined through e)
Absolutely, it’s good to discover such things
next objective: find the exact value of π+e without using anything related to π or e
Without limits or infinite sums
phi equals 1+sqrt5/2
yep
and i wont bother finding the exact value of i
its already done lmao
pi and e are transcendental, meaning they can’t be expressed using roots and rationals
Ye ik
So i suppose you need either limits or something already transcendental
Only time will tell
