Hold on, where is your 1
x+1/x+1 isnt 0 is it?
Thats correct!!
thank u so much
And it looks just like what you wanted too!
i have a worded question aswell
yes yes thankk uuuu
what is this method called
oh it may be regional differences but in my country, its called splitting the numerator
what country
or partial fractions if we apply this in integration
Sure go ahead
I am from india, and i am guessing you are from Aus/NZ?
yess Australia
nah melbourne
banger place
my area is socio economically disadvantaged tho
part c?
😭
erm is this your working?
Huh the solution seems wrong for part b?
Or maybe its contradicting whats stated in th question?
Ah i see the question is wrong in part b
is my working correct
what do u mean where
should it be y+20*-12
Alr gang 3 question you all talking about ?
so it would give you something like -(12y-240)
??
What u all solving?
these 3
rn im trynna understand where i faulted in a)
solutions r above feel free to read em
Alr let me see
Emm so u have to make area equation for (a) right ?
yeah
amd so you get -12y **+**240
not -240
Umm 12 thing is in vertical or horizontal measurement?
vertical
@heavy pewter
how did you get -(-y+20)12)??
For (a) why don't u break this big square into two reactangle thing and add there area u will get equations of area easy
his method inst wrong
I am just saying for easy idk what his method ?
yeah i am asking where you got -y+20 from
the 2 minus
there is only 1?
his is total area of rect xy - cut out piece area
should i send my working ?
yes please
Xy+12y+240 what I am getting -12y there ?
@shy osprey gotta teach us both
Huh?
im so fried bruh my test is tommrow
and i cant do a single worded question
Just make 2 diff reactangle and solve it diff and add area simple
Yee this is rightttt
the first step is the same for both of us
ohhhhhhhh
After that this i what i meant by first calculating inside the bracket
okay now with that out of the way, this is the area term
now do you see that you would have to make some corrections in part b asw?
let me redo part b
okay
I can't understand (b) question my english is hella weak 😭
again its **+**240
not -240
.
You simply substituted the value of y in terms of x in the expression of area right?
and previously, you had made an error of -240 in your area
ohh yeah i got it
okay
equation is wrong
which one
pause, where did you get = sign from😭
thats right
but the question is written wrong
and last question
is quadratic
tp x value and y value
-b/2a
i uh
Okay lets go ahead with this not really sure but okay
Generally to find the max/min we differentiate the Area expression
But i am figuring that you havent studied differentiation yet
we havent

save me
Thats correct
I thought you meant introducing new variables a and b
forgot you were talking about coefficients in a QE
no nooo the formula
Yeah mb sorry!
all gooood thank u soo much thoo
Anytime mate!

How
Ig u have to use similarity of triangle or smthing I am not good at it but ik u have to use that
Thàles Theorem
Using vectors
I'll give you a very simple proof method.
Wut
- Draw a line from C parallel to AB
- Extend PQ to cut that line at D
- Can you show some relation(congruence) between QCD and APQ?
it'd be better if you drew it down
but its vectors so im pretty sure have to use magnitude to show its half and idk how to prove its parallel
And i never learnt congurcene never heard of that
q - p
and what is vector BC?
couldnt tell you bro
actually AC - AB
Im stuck there
ohk
so observe
- AB has the same direction as AP
- |AB| = 2|AP| = 2p right?
$AB = 2\mathbf{p}$
Annie Maqionde
How do you know its exactly 2
so $BC = 2 PQ$ right/
Annie Maqionde
and what does that tell you about BC and PQ?
(BC is PQ multiplied by a scalar multiple)
Its half the length
if vectors $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ are such that $\mathbf{A} = k\mathbf{B}$, is A and B not parallel?
Annie Maqionde
here $\mathbf{BC} = 2\mathbf{PQ}$
Annie Maqionde
I dont get that
that's a property of vectors. do you mean to say its not in your course?
you can derive it component-wise anyways, if you want to.
…qqq
It probably is but i havent revised this since last year
It'd be a good idea to go over everything before solving problems
the above property is for example, the only straightforward way to solve this
How
$A = a_1 i + a_2 j$ and $B = ka_1 i + ka_2 j$
Annie Maqionde
now $a_1/ka_1 = a_2/ka_2$
Annie Maqionde
this is the condition for parallelity.
Is that dividing
two vectors can be parallel if you can express one as a scalar product of other/ they are linearly dependent
So you mean just make it cos0
um yh you can say angle b/w them is 0
How do u even use this on the question

What are some transformations I could apply to a data set to make it more normal in its distribution? I am working in R.
More Detail: I am working on the ISLR2 data set Weekly and focusing on the predictors Lag1, Lag2, Lag3, and volume. I then split the data by training my models on pre 2008 observations and then testing it on the remaining using Logistical Regression, LDA, QDA, and KNN. I don't really know what transformations would work to improve the accuracy of the models on the data.
I recommend applying a logarithmic transformation or Box-Cox to the Volume variable to reduce its asymmetry.
This is the question itself and some notes I wrote based on conversations I had with my professor. I originally had taken a FAR too broad of an approach to it.
I am sick in bed and trying to push through this so I dont fall further behind, so I feel really dumb asking this. But how do I apply those?
Transformed.Volume <- log(Weekly$Volume)
would that work?
I am likely butchering syntax
Yeah, you are correct.
can you explain how Box-Cox works? I am unfamiliar with this.
it is a method that automatically searches for the best power ($\lambda$) to transform your data and make it look as similar as possible to a normal distribution.

Thank you, I will test them both and see if there are any improvements.
You are welcome!
Do you have more questions?
probably, but that one has been answered. I will be back, just gunna keep working through this.

the blue is my drawing, i thought accel would be zero whenever the graph of velocity has a sharp corner or when it just equals zero
If the derivative of velocity is undefined, then how can the acceleration (which is the derivative of velocity) be zero?
ohhh wait so sharp corners is when accel is undefined ?
That is one case where acceleration is undefined, yes.
so at x=1 x=5 and x=8 acceleration is undefined
Correct.
t, not x though
okay that makes sense and the slope when t = 3 is zero so that would be the only instance where the acceleration is zero

Right, hello.
I asked this question a few days ago, but in retrospect I think I may need a somewhat better explanation.
Using Lanchesters laws, is there a way to get an isolated value of A or B at a certain time (t?)
Assuming the starting values of A and B, as well as the values of alpha and beta are known
Not familiar with the law, but my first instinct is to solve this as a system of ODEs
like this?
No. My way is very different. Gimme few minutes

c is explicitly stated to be obtained from the difference of the coordinates of A and B.
not to mention, c is defined as AB, which is OB - OA.
so it's answered in the very statement explaining how that came about.
I mean I need a proof because I forgot how thats the case
AB = AO + OB = -OA + OB = OB - OA.
how is it equal to AO + OB
have you not encountered vector addition at all up to this point?
For TeXiT you prob just wanna write it as
$$\vec c = \vec b - \vec a$$
but either way, AB is represented by moving back to the origin from A, and then moving to B from the origin.
I have
oh do I just add them by components
which compponents do I add?
,tex If you have the vectors $\vec v = (a,b)$ and $\vec u = (c,d)$, then the sum of the two is as follows:
$$\vec v + \vec u = (a+c , b+d)$$
Now, consider, $-\vec v$ is just $(-1)\cdot (a,b) = (-a,-b)$

Hello
What do I do with the 10 ft?
the equations i immediately figured it out because Its asking for largest/smallest combined areas
can you post how you approached it?
good username
i havent even started the solution part
oh ok i see let me try once
my intuition is to divide 10 by 2, but that evenly divides it out
you can have a 2.5 inch wire which shapes a circle and a 7,5 inch square shaped
ok i got a) x=10pi/4+pi
????
is it correct?
wait why are u giving me the answer 😭
wait so you didnt want an ans? 😢
its a help channel, your supposed to guide people on the way to the answer
not give the answer
its fine
sorry i didnt see
!nosols
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.
circle
Circumference
𝑥=2𝜋𝑟⇒𝑟=𝑥2𝜋x=2πr⇒r=2πx
so area of circle is pir^2 which equals x^2/4pi
do the same with square
i dont get this
the questions asked for combined area so you have to find area of them individually and add them
OH crap
atlast minimise them
the derivative of the area of a circle is the circumference
i derive both the areas
A'(r) = 2piR and A'(x) = 2x
OH SHIT
okay i get it
first one is right second wrong
why do we not derive the area of the square>
oh wait
you have to but you did it wrong it should come A(s)= (10-x)^2/16
dont differentiate individually first find the area and then add then differentiate
C(x) = 2.pi.r; P(x) = 4x; 2.pi.r + 4x = 10
r = (-4x + 10) / 2pi
help please :((
nope wrong
is this correct tho?
im adding circumference of the circle and the perimeter of the square = 10 inches
yes it is right
x = length used for the square
10 − x = length used for the circle
Square:
Perimeter = x = 4s ⇒ s = x/4
Area = s² = x² / 16
Circle:
Circumference = 10 − x = 2πr ⇒ r = (10 − x)/(2π)
Area = πr² = (10 − x)² / (4π)
Total Area:
A(x) = x²/16 + (10 − x)²/(4π)
read the above
Minimize Area:
A'(x) = x/8 − (10 − x)/(2π)
Set A'(x) = 0:
x/8 = (10 − x)/(2π)
2πx = 8(10 − x)
2πx = 80 − 8x
x(2π + 8) = 80
x = 40 / (π + 4)
Minimum occurs when:
Square = 40 / (π + 4)
Circle = 10π / (π + 4)
Maximize Area:
Check endpoints:
x = 0 → all wire is a circle
x = 10 → all wire is a square
Since a circle gives more area per unit length,
maximum area occurs when all 10 ft is used for the circle.
wait dont give the answer 😭
i have to go tution so i provided it you dont peek 🙏

no idea how to do part c. did the rest correct
The perimeter consists of the line segement AD, Segment on the x-axis from D to the circle boundary and then the circular arc
I'm assuming you found the point D to answer the previous questions?
D is (1,0), origin to the circle is sqrt(2) units
A is (1,1)
that makes the two lines add to sqrt(2)
but idk how to find the arc length
It's in radians so you can use L = Rθ formula
where R is the radius
actually
it's in degrees, i didn't see the 360 degrees
i don't think that matters since that's for part b not c
how to find theta in that case?
it's 90 degrees
hmm true
how
im assuming theta would be AOD
since O is the centre
oh my bad, it's 45 degrees since you have the point A(1,1) making an angle with the x axis
so tan(θ) = 1/1 = 1
θ = 45 degrees
that seems right but the markscheme is using radians for some reason
that's strange
does the mark scheme account for degrees or just radians?
Yeah I guess you have to put in radians then
It's also easier that way
so 45 degrees is equivalent to pi/4 radians
and the radius is sqrt(2)

Does there exist a natural number n such that there exists a natural number x that satisfies the equation: x^2-x-1 = F_n where F_n is the nth Fibonacci number given that n>11
Oh god
Isn't this essentially looking for Fibonacci numbers that are one less than a product of two consecutive integers? Since x^2 - x = x(x-1)
Wait what's the 12th fibo number?
,w 12th fibo number
Oh
Yep, I did try to interpret it like that but couldn’t get anywhere
,w 13 th fibo number
pretty sure the equation can be rewritten by multiplying by 4 and completing the square, to get something like $(2x - 1)^2 - 5 = 4F_n$. so $4F_n + 5$ is a perfect square
MxRgD
don't know if that helps
Yeah I also got that but couldn’t get much further
hmm
,w 11th fibo
11 th seems to satisfy
dk if you can prove if there exists n>11
Yeah, that’s why I restricted n to be >11
89 is prime if im not wrong
So really you can't do anything with F_11
?
x^2-x-1 = 89 means that x=10 which works
Oh mb
I don't think any number n>11 would satisfies this
Let $k = 2x - 1$. You could try checking $k^2 \equiv 4F_n + 5 \pmod{m}$ for various moduli with the pisano period
MxRgD
if you did $\pi(11)$ as the pisano period then the sequence repeats every 10 terms

$\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} \delta(\cos(x)) dx$
Mr. Penguin
is this +infinity?
do you know what delta is ?
yes
can you write its definition
delta(x)=infinity at x=0 , 0 in x different from 0
if the sum is infinite periodically it always equals infinity
er what
cos(x)=t
Yes
i think it infinity
It just becomes $\ds\sum_{n\in\vb N} 1$

Can someone help me with this? I tried taking the natural log but it just became a whole mess
can you elaborate
$9x+10-10$
Mr. Penguin
what about the outer exponent?
clever
im giving it a try its just taking a bit
Okay!
okay hmmm im totally doing smthn wrong give me a second and ill post my work
Okay
technically its ln(y) = all that but i got lazy
Mr. Penguin
$(1+\epsilon_x)^{1/ \epsilon_x}=e$
Mr. Penguin
no i didnt, i dont even recall hearing abt it in class
i have no idea how to use that
Mr. Penguin
we havent really talked about epsilon at all in my class very much, only the very basic proof of a limit type situation. is this something that is like, supposed to be in calc 1?
maybe you could show how this applies here
Have you made any notable limitations?
just expand here and find the highest powers of each numerator and denominator
ill try that
At that point is it okay to have the +10 and -10 cancel? Because im ngl i dont really see their use at this point
Yes
Having those cancel out has it turn out to this, which is another infinity / infinity indeterminate form, so lhopitals rule would be repeated iirc
why not? isnt it an infinity / infinity indeterminate form?
This indeterminate form can also be solved without hopital, but I don't understand what it has to do with your question
.
can you elaborate on what u mean by that question? like are we talking in terms of this current question or in the overall class
Yes
Where did this come from?
Current question
I havent really noticed anything for the current question, no
from expanding what pi_day said
How did you remove the logarithms?
you really shouldn't need l'hopital to find the limit of something like ax^2 / (bx^2 + x) as x goes to inf
How did you go from the last line of the first page to the first line of the second page?
taking derivative of top and bottom like how my prof explained l'hopitals rule
eh ill just try it till i get it right

i mean thats plausible, since we are just only barely starting on it, i mightve got it wrong
but like idk what else can be done really so
I mean I took the natural log of both sides to get the exponent down in front, but from there all changes were just to try and get it in the indeterminate form for Lhopitals rule

How to do?
you here?
Yes
I'm here
take a look at these angles
call angle BOC x
can you find angle COD and angle BOE
consider the following
we can consider, for any line, how long of it is inside the circle
we can also consider how much of an angle the two points through the circle make
now lets say the line is always vertical
the moment I showed that the line has this much going through the circle,
does its corresponding angle seem locked in place?
are there any other possibilities for that angle?
No if it is centre
very interesting
since you can always rotate any line to look vertical this way,
does that mean that, for any line through the circle, its angle is locked in place by how much of it is inside the circle?
Yes
So we know that angle BOC = angle COD = angle BOE due to equal chords, equal angles
I have no point on how 44 degree can help
you need a way to connect this x to that 44
there are a few ways you can go about this, but the general idea is:
find a way to express angle A in terms of x
that way, you knowing that angle A should be 44 would give you an equation
(in terms of x) = 44
for you to solve

Is my solution correct? and if it is correct is there any solution that is faster than this?
Holy handwriting btw
worth it if youw ask me
Anyhow this seems correct
mmm alr thx
Idts as for this specifc case you have one of the components of v as 0 so its quick
i see
also another question, r1 and r2 are considered to be different unit vectors right? (Their direction is not the same)
Yup!
Just a quick fun qsn if you want, how many such orthogonals vectors can be there?
the ones that are orthogonal to u and v right?
Yeah
mmm infinite?
because there is inf amount of vectors that can be derived from the unit vector that is orthogonal to both u and v.
Good!!

I am sorry everyone I have asked this question before. 😭
Someone called Civil Service Pigeon helped me already and I already got the answer to this problem. However, the more I think about it, the more I got confused on how these seats/points actually move.
Is it like this?
A --> F (goes down by 0,5 m, now is at the lowest height) --> E (goes up by 0,5 m and got back to the starting height) --> D (goes up by 0,5 m, now is at the highest height) --> C (goes down by 0,5 m and got back to the starting height) --> B (goes down by 0,5 m, now is at the lowest height).
However, when I try to plot (using a graphing calculator) the answers given in the options, why does it feel like the graph looks different from the motion above?
Is it the problem being inconsistent? Or am I just completely wrong?
Also, does anyone have any idea what this part mean?
--> "the vertical motions of the three pairs of opposite points on the roof move in opposite directions."
Thank you very much 🙏
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
The line you're confused about means that if F goes up then C goes down
And vice versa
They're a pair since they lie opposite to each other
Same for AD and BE
Right, I see that now. Thanks
How about the motion of the seats? Let's say point A for example, can you help me with that?
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
hey you still there ?
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
Yes, I am still very confused about the motion of the seats.
@outer isle Has your question been resolved?
okay so i'll try to explain the motion of one point, let's say A
let the height of all the points at t=0 be the mean position
now when the wheel rotates by 60° i.e. point A is now where point F was initially, it has moved 0.5m downward from its mean position
after another 60° rotation, point A now reaches the position of E. during this time A was going up, which means it is now at the height it started with initially i.e. the mean position.
then point A continues moving up for another 60° till it reaches the position D, at this moment A is 0.5m above its mean position.
as you can now guess, A now moves down until it reaches point C, and which is now at its mean height.
it continues moving down till it reaches point B, meaning it is currently 0.5m below its mean height.
after that, it moves up to complete the 360° rotation and is finally at the mean height it started with.
ping me when you are back!
@pallid robin Alright, thanks a lot. I agree with the motion you presented.
However, I am very confused. I used Desmos to plot the graph for each function in the answer options (A - E). Yet, none actually represented the motion as you've described.
For example, for option C, every 60°, the seat would always be back at the starting height (mean position) and have completed the motion of going up and going down by 0,5 metres once.
Am I missing something? Is the graph actually supposed to be that way?
could you share what the graph looks like ?
so from the data given, i think the mean height is 2m from the ground
nvm about that
i plotted them
Oh, thanks
is that what you calculated as well ?
No, the mean height I got was somehow 1.5 metres
how?
I know that it should be 2 metres, since point A was at B (1.5 m) based on the problem
yes
But the graph said the mean height is 1.5, is it not? I am so confused 🥲
which graph exactly?
Oh yeah, option C
i mean none of the options match if we consider 2m at t=0
is c the correct option acc. to the answer key ?
I got no answer key unfortunately. Sorry. I was just biased on option C and D since they are the only option which give h = 1.5 meters at 300°
Is the problem just bad? If it is, then it's okay.
no but 1.5 at 300 is valid for point A only ?
no wait, you're right in some sense
but the question is just inconsistent imo
the values don't agree with each other
i might be wrong tho, you could cross check with a teacher or anybody else
Yes, thank you very much. Do you have any other insights?
Alright, I'll close this channel. Thank you very much. Have a good rest of your day

what topic/concept is behind this in statistics ._.
skewness?
i mean more generally it is probability theory
i dont know what you are looking for exactly
I'm a bit confused
how do I do the skewness from the PMF
in that form too
\lm You mean, how to evaluate $\ds \vb E\9{\8{\4{X-\mu}\sigma}^3}$ generally?
probably
I'm confused abt the topic in general since my stat is so to speak, extremely basic
maybe you need to dial it back a notch before tackling something like this
do you know how to evaluate E[x], generally?
iz why I'm asking about the topic so I can build on it
expected val yeah I think
hopefully I know 🥀
\lm it is $\ds\vb E[X] = \sum_ix_i\2f(x_i)$
so for your problem, try to identify the missing variables
you need to know f(x_i), mu, and sigma
try to first retrieve f(x_i) from the set of three equations given to you regarding it
I can only imagine that since PMF
f(0)+f(1)+f(2)+f(3)+f(4)=1,
2(f(0)+f(2)+f(4))=1 => it's equal to 1/2, so f(1)+f(3) must be equal to 1/2,
so f(1)=3/10, f(3)=1/5, then I'm kinda clueless for f(0) f(2) and f(4)
and I know variance is 1.3, so
yeah f(1) and f(3) are right
you know f(0) = f(4)
you also know f(0) + f(2) + f(4) = 1/2
yes but that doesn't help with f(2)? I think
yes
you can retrieve what f(0) should be from the mean and variance now
what is the mean, first and foremost?
in terms of f(0)
1/5?
f(0)+f(1)+f(2)+f(3)+f(4) divided by 5 😔
so is it like f(0) * chance+f(1) * chance /5
0
I forgot this but this has been taught to us 😔 I'm sorry
you have f(0) = a, f(1) = 0.3, f(2) = 1/2 - 2a, f(3) = 0.2, f(4) = a
so the average is 1.9
yaeh!
great
so, you have to calculate the variance now
this is gonna be mega annoying tho
,, \lm \ds \Var[X] = \sum(x-\mu)^2\2f(x)
variance is 1.69, stdev is 1.3
so I have to like
🥀
in a 90 second question is crazy
lol
2.1^2 x a+1.1^2 x 0.2+0.1^2 x (1/2 - 2a)+0.9^2 x 0.3+1.9^2 x a=1.69
(3.61+4.41-0.02)a=8a
8a+0.242+0.005+0.243=1.69
=> 8a=1.20 a=3/20=0.15
so the other one becomes 0.2
0.15 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.15
isn't this E(x)
so then how do I do this
(-1.9/1.3)^3+(-0.9/1.3)^3+(0.1/1.3)^3+(1.1/1.3)^3+(2.1/1.3)^3
3005/2197
trust we have a more than 100% chance to do that
thats correct
yes
you are forgetting to multiply with the probaibltiy
liek
how do we get the probability for said things
.
wait so it's ((X-u)/o)^3 * f(X)
yes
(-1.9/1.3)^3 x 3/20+(-0.9/1.3)^3 x 3/10+(0.1/1.3)^3 x 1/5+(1.1/1.3)^3 x 1/5+(2.1/1.3)^3 x 3/20
first I'm gonna take out 1/5(1.3)^3 and multiply 1000 just to make it ((-19)^3x3/4+(-9)^3 x 3/2 + 1^3 + 11^3 +21^3 x 3/4
what's a good book on this
probability?
i can suggest the book i used back in my probability course a few years ago
i liked it
this is it
3x2402/4+ 2662/2-2187/2+1=7203/4+475/2+1=7203/4+950/4+4/4=> (8157/4)5*13^3
or 8157/43940
which isn't the answer
thanks, I will be exploding over the next 3 years
99% sure you miscalculated something but let me try myself
I hate calculators but they are damn convenient 🥀
unfortunate I lacked the brain capacity to think that maybe I should do this with a calculator first
here is the answer
wait I'm missing 3 units somewhere
like just 3
OHHHHH
2402 NOT 2401
8160 which is 408 IS THIS THE INTENDED SOLUTION????
suffering 🥀
this is right
hey code is cheating grrr >:(
is there like any easier way this is literally impossible for 90 seconds
there might be tbh
yeah idk
you are inevitably gonna have to compute this
your teacher might be trolling you
I spent like 5 minutes of my life calculating the values you should also suffer /j
oh it's a competition
truly this was my face when I saw that question 2 days ago
I'm gonna be noting this, idk about the f(x) thing but I have no knowledge in pmf and pdf
you saw the question format 😭
you should deffo read up on that
