cheating on his wives too
Or being a simp for Elon musk?
straight pimp
Oh yeah
He cheated on her wife with a pornstar
yea
Lmao
lol
🙌🏻🙌🏻
True
rich people don’t have to be faithful
Wow
Wow.
We are in 2025 r? Not 1800…..😭
i know some guy who would have a girl come up to his penthouse right after his wife and kids left
🤣
and would brag about it to the valet dudes
Bruh why
men will be men
humans haven’t evolved that much
Geez
many women is admirable for some people
Instead of on business or study
some girl i talked to two years ago was hella rich and her dad kept cheating with her moms friend
Like I think that is wasting time plus inappropriate
Wow
Oh yeah
Money probably will solve that problem
yep
i mean
are the women with these dudes because of anything but their money?
let’s be real
Btw thx a lot
You make me feel old lol
have a nice night

Is {{{1},{1,2},{1,{2},3}}} a set with one element
{{1,empty set}, empty set} is 2 elements right...
Yes
Yes
The outermost set, yes
Well what is the original question?
{ {{1},{1,2},{1,{2},3}} }
The outermost set has two elements, yes.
So, the easiest way to determine the element of sets is to count the outermost bracket that isn't the set bracket?
If it means what I think it means, yes.

the last term of the dot product (from multiplying the z components) looks off, check that again
oh wait and the first term too?

@drifting sinew
What's wrong with the first term?
yea uh check your gradient vector again
i think you have the order of the components backward
the gradient vector with point plugged in seems wrong
oh might be just the z component of the gradient?
i think you plugged in your direction vector instead of your point
i'm getting (1,0,3) for the gradient if im doing it correctly?

can someone check this
so the final answer would come out as 10/sqrt14?
you haven't updated your later calculations

how to do 2a (iii)?
try pulling -9 out
of the last two terms
👀
yeah I did that already, thats the only step I did
so what do u have
so it'll become (x+3)^3-9(x-5)
you carelessed the last part
what 🥀
is it x-5?
oh yeah its +5
not really, I'm stuck at that part
O ok
So combine the (x+5) term first
Express (x+5)^3 as (x+5) (x+5)^2
so I break up the (x+3)^3?
its (x+5)^3 but ok
yes
Take out the (x+5) term
so it'll become (x+5)^2(x+5)
Ya
ok so what do I do next?
combine the terms under (x+5)
We have (x+5) [(x+5)^2 -9]
how you get that?
pull the (x+5) out
which one?
why do we do that tho?
To factorise it
so it'll be (x+5)^2(x+5)-9?
no what
then?

In context of linear algebra, I'm looking for a small confirmation:
I'm reading a passage from a book that's talking about the nullspace of a matrix.
The passage mentions a matrix having a nonempty nullspace, and also a nullspace with only the zero vector.
I'm guessing what the author meant was something like If a matrix has a nonempty null space (except for the zero vector)
Yes except 0 vector

Hi everyone, I have a question:
If $0 < a_k \le 1$ and $\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k$ is convergent, then $\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k^6$ is convergent as well, right?
nico.alesi
why do you think it is?
since $a_k$ is less than 1 it means that every $(a_k)^{2n} \le a_k$, by the comparison test we can confirm that
nico.alesi
I want to note that if \sum a_k is convergent, then a_k -> 0, so eventually a_k < 1 anyway
and for all kinds of convergence you only care about things that eventually hold
if you assume that the series is non-negative, yes
but if it's negative you can't use the comparison test, right?
god am I making a silly mistake?
what?
well yes ok you need to go to absolute convergence. so more or less make your terms positive anyway

Ok there
No, that's what I'm confused about
Since it says w.r.t. C I thought it would be $-40\vec{j}+50\vec{k}$
;(
But that produces a result with all 3 components, rather than just 2
Alr imma go do smth
$$\tau = Fr\sin(\theta)$$
@drifting sinew
we are interested in the vector torque so [ \vec \tau = \vec r \times \vec F ]
cloud
Yeah but what the hell is my r
I'm so confused 💀
It’s true. I’ll leave it to cloud to explain.
the r vector should be the vector pointing from C to the point of application of F
The point of application is B, no?

judging from the diagram it appears to be A

Read #❓how-to-get-help for further information on how to ask a good question, and about conduct in the question channels.
can someone explain how to do this parametric question? I don’t understand why u need to create sin^2 t and cos^2 t
It can be easy to use a Pythagorean Identity to combine the two equations.
$$\sin^2(t) + \cos^2(t) = 1$$
@drifting sinew
I’m confused cuz usually wouldn’t you have to solve for t? and then plug the t value into the y(t) function
The problem with that is that sin and arcsin aren't perfect inverses.
I’m confused😭
sin is not bijective over R so it's not invertable over R
Okay, let's not give too much complicated jargon.
,w plot y = arcsin(x)
how did it lead up to (x-1)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 4 from there
$$4\sin^2(t) + 4\cos^2(t) = 4 \qty(\sin^2(t) + \cos^2(t)) = 4$$
@drifting sinew
ohh
I still don’t know why i have to use the sin^2 t + cos^2 t = 1 identity here cuz usually wouldn’t u solve for t?
okay maybe I’m not understanding what the question is asking help😭
the objective is to find y in terms of x
They simply want some direct relation between x and y.
Wouldn't this remove half of the circle?
depends on the representation. x^2 + y^2 = 1 gives the unit circle. y = sqrt(1-x^2) gives the upper half of the unit circle because of the way sqrt is defined
Exactly. x^2 + y^2 = 1 is not y in terms of x.
so like if it’s like x(t) = cos t and y(t) = sin t, it would be like x^2 + y^2 = 1 bc of the trig identity sin*2 t + cos^2 t = 1?
sqrt is defined as having only 1 positive output because having 2 outputs makes it not a function. a function only gives at most 1 output
And that's exactly the problem. You would have to use sqrt to find y in terms of x, but that would only return half the circle.
you can define it as plus/minus sqrt but it causes problems with derivatives not being well defined. in other words, it's done like this for higher level convenience
it's done like this
You mean like the standard form of a circle?
so like every time there’s a trig question like this, ill just need to create sin^2 t and cos^2 t bc of their relationship in the identity sin^2 t + cos^2 t = 1?
You don't necessarily have to. In this case, it was simply the best way to relate x and y.
i meant defining sqrt to give 2 outputs
alright ill look into it more after school
tyy!

how can I find all x such that cos(x)=1/2 in x ∈ [-π,π]
i have some ideas but idk, like
arccos, inverse cosine, cos^-1
arcos is restricted in first quadrant
when does cos(x) equal 1/2? just one value
pi/3
that, I got from arccos
,w arccos(1/2)
then use reference angles
wdym?
recall cos(x) is periodic over 2pi
wdym?
wait nvm I just realized the [-pi,pi] restriction
there is actually another value where cos(x)=1/2 that the arccos function doesn't cover due to domain issues
recall that cos(-x)=cos(x)
sin(-x) = -sin(x)
cos(-x) = -cos(x)
nope not for cosine
cos(-x)=cos(x)
cosine is an even function
how do we know there is only 2 solutions?
sometimes it's infinite depending on the question
how do we know is up for how the question is stated
-pi <= pi/3 + 2kpi <= pi
-3pi/3 - pi/3 <= 2kpi <= 3pi/3 - pi/3
-4pi/3 <= 2kpi <= 2pi/3
-4pi/6pi <= k <= 2pi/6pi
-2/3 <= k <= 1/3
-pi <= -pi/3 + 2kpi <= pi
-3pi/3 + pi/3 <= 2kpi <= 3pi/3 + pi/3
-2pi/3 <= 2kpi <= 4pi/3
-2pi/6pi <= k <= 4pi/6pi
-1/3 <= k <= 2/3
we can check with math there is only 2 solutions
for k ∈ Z
you should note that all this reduces to saying that the only integer k that satfies these inequalities is 0
so we have no extra angles due to periodicity
then the only angles that remain are pi/3 and -pi/3 (of which are both contained in the interval [-pi,pi])
yeah, but I think this is the true justification right?
well yes but to get the general forms pi/3+2kpi and 2kpi-pi/3 we must first know that the principal angles are pi/3 and -pi/3
yeah, we got that from the identity cos(-x)=cos(x)
but idk, seems like complicated exercise
correct, and then one can realizing that adding or subtracting any integer amount of 2pi would go outside the interval
so without doing the inequality business one can realize straight off of the bat that -pi/3 and pi/3 are the only solutions
intuition goes brrrr
really?
well pi/3 + 2pi = pi/3 + 6pi/3
so its outside
i found this challenging though, anyone on this boat?
when I first encountered these types of problems they were very difficult to imagine, but as with everything it'll get easier with practice :)
yeah
I first tried arccos and got pi/3
then tried doing the inequality business and got k = 0
but I missed the -pi/3
but yeah is because cos identity cos(-x)=cos(x)
but idk, is nasty exercise i think?
maybe I am just bad at trig
yeah, this question sucks ass
this is not too bad, again just practice :) people tend to underestimate it

im tryna learn integrals i have my final test tmrw can anyone help me understand some stuff
Sure. Upload some questions and I (or someone else) will try to guide you through them.
oh
i was wondering if we can get on a call if anyones down to it
cuz
im tryna write it on paper
so i learn the process
I can't call right now. And it seems like this server is highly against VCs due to lack of moderation.
This seems to need Integration by Parts.
Do you want to try it yourself, or should I walk you through the problem?
$$\int u \dd{v} = vu - \int v \dd{u}$$
Have you heard of this formula?
@drifting sinew
$$\int e^{3y} \dd{y}$$
$$\frac 13 \int 3e^{3y} \dd{y}$$
$$u = 3y \implies \dd{u} = 3 \dd{y}$$
$$\frac13 \int e^u \dd{u}$$
$$\frac13 e^u$$
$$\frac13 e^{3y}$$
@drifting sinew
so we integrate that
and u we just derivate
this
btw how old r u
so we get the terms
Yes, now can you apply the Integration by Parts formula?
and then place them like in the formula
i alr got the problems solved but tbh i just copied the board
So you don't fully understand how to get the solution?
So do you know what to write from here?
um
no
i just know that we take 2 terms
1 gets derivated
1 gets integrated
and the i place them as in the formula
and from there im kinda lost
$$\boxed{\begin{matrix}
&u = y^2 &\dd{v} = e^{3y} \dd{y} \
&\dd{u} = 2y \dd{y} &v = \frac13 e^{3y} \end{matrix}}$$
$$uv - \int v \dd{u}$$
yea

Should be -8 right
Q65
Chatgpt is saying it's 8 because it says behind meaning negative
Formula is negative distance of image over distance of object is equal to height of image over height of object
-d_i/d_o 12 behind= -12
-(-12)/6=h_i/4 , h_i=8
What does the behind even mean of course it's behind the image virtually
There's already a sign for that in the formula so
behind here means the image forms behind the mirror
(convex mirror it seems like in this context)
Question 67 same thing but it says concave mirror
there is a case for concave mirrors to have behind mirror images
@restive river
These are the cases mostly (with two missing case where do=f and do=r)
If it didn't say behind we assume it's the other sign?
if it didn't say behind then the image is formed in front of the mirror yep
and also negative image height would mean the image is flipped
like the f<do<r case and do>r in concave mirrors
How does the image form Infront of the mirror?
using a ray diagram the light rays will converge to a certain point and can be projected on a screen
Do you have a picture?
This ok ?
Why wouldn't any scenario be able to do this
I mean if you have a lighted object it will reflect from the mirror and light up somewhere in front of it
And also the object will be visible inside the mirror so it's like magnification is both negative and positive
In some sense for image contexts and curved mirrors that’s how it is using ray diagram and concluding the image real(in front of the mirror) or virtual( behind the mirror)
Oh so the formula tells you which image we are talking about the virtual one inside or the reflected one outside?
Yep using both formulas
1/f=1/di+1/do and m=hi/ho=-di/do
shows the distances and height
I gotta go for now sorry
Hope I did enough

Is this incorrect by any chaance?
the only sokution is x=3
how did x=0 happen at the end @keen sundial
Im not sure thats the soln i got
whete did jt comr from?
yeah i wonder
I think that's a point, like its the point x = 3 and y = 0
9/3 = 3
<@&286206848099549185>
what have i done wrong
I was tryna find the point of B
you did it correctly
apparently its not correct

don't assume chatgpt is correct.
but here at least GPT parsed the problem correctly as the equation of the line reads sqrt(3)*x - 3 and not sqrt(3x) - 3
oh my bad
so was gpt still correct?
Yes, you just rewrote the equation incorrectly :(
Ann
- do you understand what i mean?
- do you understand why it is the case?
- do you understand why it's a red flag?
maybe it was just a terribly written diagram 
- dont know what u mean because I cant pinpoint whree i did the mistake
line 1.
ok
but let me be more specific
do you understand what i mean when i say "NONLINEAR EQUATION"? yes or no.
$\sqrt{3x}$ and $\sqrt{3}x$ is completely diffrent
skissue.in.a.teacup
yes I believe so, isnt it when its power of 1?
overused "it"
also confused wording generally
a NON-linear function or equation is one that ISN'T of the form ax+b.
capisce?
yes i do
ok
do you understand why writing down a nonlinear equation to find the x-int of a straight line is a red flag?

How do I find whether I have to use lcm or hcf for this word problem
the books need to be able to be given out equally to A => number of books is divisible by 32
well you need more than 36 books for sure
ditto for B => number of books is divisible by 36
so it can't be the hcf, cause the hcf is 36 or fewer

so i first defined L(theta) = .....................
then i took the log of both sides
and then derivative equal to zero
and i get 2/theta = 0
but im stuck afer that
plot the likelihood and stare
what u did doesn't work here cus the likelihood is discontinuous
this is my first time hearing this
what even is a likelihood 😭
the likelihood is the probability of observing x if theta was the given theta
you should think of it as having observed x
we know the probability of observing x if theta were say 2 would be 8x^-3 if 2 <= x etc.
(so just frame f as a function of theta with x fixed instead)
it's the L part of MLE
sorry i don't think i phrased it too well lol
this is the likelihood, u did it here
mhm
normally this function is continuous in theta so you can differentiate & set = 0
but here this function is not continuous in theta
well write it down as a function of theta
1/ (theta2 - theta1)^n
do u mean like there is a theta where you have 1/0 and therefore discontinuous?
What happens if you have a sample x < theta ?
depends on which theta it is right?
if x is smaller than theta1, then the likelihood is zero
Wdym theta1 ?
arent there 2 variabeles
oh my god
i sent a screenshot of exercise 5 but im looking at exersize 6
okay wait then so
But yeah that's the idea
likelihood zero
Indeed
mhm so?
As long as theta is smaller than all the samples x1, .. xn, likelihood is positive
yes
Then when theta is bigger than even just one of the samples, likelihood goes down straight to zero
do we take theta = min(x1, x2 ....... xn), since that is the largest number of theta for which the likelihood is at its max
Gg m8
woooooow
That's exactly it
That derivative you computed is always positive
the function wasnt continuous
So the theta that maximizes the likelihood is the biggest one you can get away with
Increasing theta increases the likelihood, until the likelihood gets zero
That's the idea
You don't
or to a visual analysis and see oh ok this and this
could u maybe quickly help w these aswell to see if i understand it
in that case no, but when i see a random question on my exam in a few days, how can i tell ahh this is continuous so i can derivative = 0,
Well the main trick is to be careful about the domain of your distribution
ok so L(theta1, theta2) = 1 / (theta2 - theta1)^n
Theta <= x, here the domain depends on theta
It's in these cases mostly that you get in fishy situations where the derivative is discontinuous
right
so ok if i dont know ill do the derivative first if it doesnt work ill know to do discontinuous case
Well the domain depends on the thetas again
this is at its biggest when theta2- theta1 is the smallest
Right
But what are the constraints on theta1, theta2 so that you don't end up with zero likelihood ?
every x has to be bigger than theta1
Yea
so theta1 = max(x1, x2 ... xn) and theta2 = min(x1...... xn)
Other way around
Every sample is bigger than theta1
oops
math.
math.

is the top part a standard RA inequality
It's the AM-GM inequality
ive seen that for the product of 2 factors
Ok but shouldn't that be $xyz \leq (x+y+z)^3$ then
astral
it'd be 3xyz
GM = ${\sqrt{x^2y^2z^2} = xyz}$ for ${x,y,z \geq 0}$. So, AM = $\frac{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}{2}$.
GM = ${\sqrt[3]{x^2y^2z^2}}$. So, AM = $\frac{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}{3}$
${\sqrt[3]{x^2y^2z^2}} < \frac{x^2 + y^2 + z^2}{3} < {x^2 + y^2 + z^2} < ({x^2 + y^2 + z^2})^{(3/2)}$
astral
does this need z^2 + y^2 + z^2 >1
why?
and all, i think

idk where to start
do i do herrons?
Incircle..
whats that
line bisects stuff
uh
Ye
U get two right triangles
i saw that and dropping to the center point to get another 2 or a kite
but idrk how that helps
And a similar right triangle inside…
what
yea
can you see whether / why are those 2 triangles similar?
why is it 6 on inside
yea i see it but i wouldnt be able to prove that it is similar
nvm i lied
i can
ohh
they basically share one angle, the one at A and they also both have 90° angle
so they must be similar
now just label the stuff and try solving it
using the ratios
hi guys
i just joined the group
I was waiting for 10 mins
Now i can chat
So i can prove how it is similar
They have a same angle a
and both have 90 degreess
if we set an equation
90 +a+b
This will be equal to )
0
For both triangles if we do 180 -a-90
answer will be b for both triangles
all three angles are same so triangles are similar
gotcha
yea ty
ok good

Asked by a q to draw the characteristic curves on the xt plane
this sounds dumb but like
which graph do i use..
i was checking over my work
my first impression was heyyy time is usually the dependent var might as well put it on horizontal axis
then i see a pic online
i dont wanna get docked marks for dum reasons ;-; wanted to confirm with someone

what's the area of it
"it" being?
Right trapezoid
(there are three you could consider: which one? ABCD, or one of the smaller ones?)
the bigger one?
this is the farthest I could get
wait
can I just carry that triangle?
Similarity
You know x+k=10
yeah
Angle EFC = ABC?
Yes
can we call 2 triangles similar if they have 2 of the same angles and one of the same sides
wait the other angles is same also
Side angle side congruency
Where does 10*12 come from?
Yea correct
Bro self-did it, idk if this term even make sense
E is midpoint of DA and F is midpoint of CB, and the drawn triangles are congruent, so they carried that triangle below to fit in the above and form a rectangle with sides of length equal to EF = 10 and AD = 12

got stuck
the ratio of k to 4k is given in the question
yeah maybe I did angles wrong
idrk
Try using similarity of triangles and the equation obtain by pythagorean theorem on the triangle you just formed
No
Your labels are incorrect
You seem to have defined a to be the complementary angle of b and also the angle AED at the same time
Yeah forget about it I was mislead by the labels
Sounds like a tautology
Wait nvm what am I doing
Lol
aren't the four triangles similar to each other
The pairs that form the upper and lower rectangles are congruent pairwise

Hey, I'm currently struggling on a question on my combinatorial struct. exercise sheet, namely
"Suppose you are rolling eight dices. What is the probability, that every number from 1, .. 6 is rolled at least one time."
It has to do something with inclusion/exclusion principle, but i really don't see the connection to it 😅
yes, I thought about that. but in this case the probability of no 6s is the same as the probability of no 5s and so on.
This led me to P(one number is missing) = P(no 1) + ... P(no 6) = 6 * (5/6)^8 ~= 76% but I dont think. this is right 😅
You're on the right track, but think inclusion exclusion
You can have no 6s and no 5s at the same time
You mean somehting like that? And the real probability would be the union of all of them?
Ahh.. and the thing I calculated are jsut the single sets no-6, no-5 and so on
the (5/6)^8
yeah exactly. you basically have those circles, but you need to subtract the overlap
Okeyy.. phu
Holy shit.. those are very much overlaps

How to represent ax^2 + bx + c on a graph
I have no idea how i can do this :((
That's a whole family of parabolas.
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.
It's a quadratic equation
Yes
It can be represented on the graph in a parabolic form
I have no idea what us parabolas
better off changing it to vertex form
Hmmm how do I explain what a parabola is
Whatever comes in your mind
Can you elaborate pleasw
Yep
a > 0, the thing opens up. a < 0, the thing opens down
yeah like this, c basically just moves it up and down, b changes it left/right, a changes how narrow/wide it is
Yes
for any quadratic you have there is two form that you can graph it and the vertex is the easier (imo) one to use
vertex form:a(x-h)^2+c
Dang well
https://www.desmos.com/calculator/7nxswyw5db
jusy play around here
I dont get it, i am only in class 9th and my teacher is stupid and gave me class 10th homework(pretty sure)
Hmm
Lemme try that
i mean technichally this is class 9 but its much more in depth
This is smthn that u learn in ninth grade
also has 9th grade not graduated yet by now 
Maybe but there is nothing like this in my book and my teacher never taught me
what does your teacher want you to do exactly
Lemme paste exact words
Geometrical representation of the factorization of the following quadratic polynomial: ax^2 + bx + c
Ye
Geomatrical representation
The answer is parabola
They r not asking for the exact rep on a piece of graph paper
Do i just make a parabola in my homework file then
I mean it's not possible
I mean u cud just write the answer as parabolic or parabola rather than drawing it
Def not
Y not?
Oh
Ok ic then u can go ahead n draw it
How do i exactly draw a parabola?
If you could tell me some steps it could be nice
Because i have no idea about it
Ye that's what I said it's not possible to draw one
I will make this
Ye that's fine ig
The context given, maybe they expect something like this
https://youtu.be/dc9ysw2fOn8?si=_TLJNUJ9L-TJIwqS&t=385
We show a simple example of how the factorization of a quadratic polynomial can be understood as a geometric jigsaw puzzle, and hint at how it generalizes to higher dimensions.
Find me on Instagram @camilosnotebooks
if you need to label points then well you need to factorize it
Like factorise "ax^2 + bx + c" into (ab)(cx) form
Or smtg like that
Lemme checl
no the form would be 4a(x+h)^2 + c
a not being the same a as in your equation
general equation of a parabola is y=4ax^2
But my teacher didnt provided any value of coefficents
now if the vertex is at (h,k) then the equation becomes y-h=4a(x-k)^2
you can work with variables
but i think its out of scope of a class 9 student
Hmm
Well of course it's not the solution, but it shows how you can approach this question. For the coefficients you might wanna consider cases.
How to interpret it at all.
Isnt it y = x^2/4a
For focus
Well my teacher want representation on graph
So i think my teacher prob talking about parabolas
The hraph of a quadratic equation happens to be a parabola and not the other way aroung
oh wait its y^2 = 4ax my bad
A parabola is a collection of points equidistant from a focus and directrix
at evry point
Horizontal parabola
My teacher didnt taught me 😭
$\left ( x + \frac{b}{2a} \right ) ^2 = y + \left ( \frac{b^2 - 4ac}{4a^2} \right )$
Shockshwat
this would be the general parabolic equation for your parabola
Hmm
so you would want something like
Its just shifting the graph of x^2 such that the new vertex is at the point (-b/2a , -D/4a)
You know discriminant right?
Well no
Oh
Just draw this in a neat way and that should be full marks i guess
What if there is a constant term
the y intercept would change
the original equation is given as ax^2 + bx +c
The thing is, what am i gonna do if teacher asks for an explanation for it
I am all cooked if that happens
yeah, i didnt deliberately cut it at the origin, dumb luck
Nah never asked me before
