2/3 ^x
Yep
So $(\frac{2}{3})^x = 27$
Stephen
What do we do from here
so x = log 27 / log 2/3
here
Oh lol instead of dividing by 3^x, we coulda divided by 2^x and then divided both sides by 27
Either method works

@fair gust Has your question been resolved?
I understand
but the last time i asked a discrete math question , no one was able to help for a whole hour...
React to the bot
still need help lol
Okay could you post your question?
,rccw
Oh pseudo code
yea
i get the gist i just need help with the formula portions
and coming up with sigma notation
Hmm
The prints in pseudo code 1 is 2, 3, 4, and 5. They are 4 prints so it's gonna be
Like
You start with 2
That's one print
Then 3
That's another print
Formula for number of print executions?
yes
the summation one
isnt there just one?
There are multiple ones
VulcanOne
- is when you are constantly adding a specific number
Which is just the product of the number and the number of times you're adding it
- is when you add whole numbers starting from 1 to some whole number n
can you call and help me
or thats not possible
texting through all this is a bit difficult
Hmm
That way i can go through everything
Problem is that VC is gone
ah
Ayo, what happend to vc??
can i possibly add you personally on discord then?
Died.
@short siren can i possibly add you personally on discord then?

Hmm
no?
VC only
And chats here
@fair gust
Also you didn't tell me what's your confusion with
I gave you the formula

You only need those two

I can VC on our DMs

I'm trying to figure out if this curve has a "well defined tangent in origo", and if so whats that tangents rate of increase, but I have no clue where to start
What do you mean by "origo"?
(0,0), thought it was an english word, my bad
It's called the origin
ahh okey thanks
So you wanna find dy/dx at t = 0?
thats what I dont understand, wouldnt that just be 0?
Generally $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt}}{\frac{dx}{dt}}$
A Lonely Bean
So in this case you'd have to evaluate 27t^2/(2 - 2cos(2t)) at 0
ohhh 0/0
But since it's 0/0
altiiight didnt see that
It's better to solve its limit
let me give it a quick try
hmm I got 54/8, but it says its wrong when I try it as an answer, is it the right value or have I just misunderstood what Im looking for or something?
Try entering that as 27/4 perhaps
hmmm weird
Does it say the correct answer?
no sadly not :/
is there an easy way to plot parametric curves btw? could be useful for later aswell to see what I'm dealing with
Well if it's asking for a "well defined" one then it's undefined
Since we solved for the limit, technically plugging t = 0 doesn't work
I tried just saying "no" which was the option if there wasnt one which was also incorrect, so I have no clue... I guess I'll just move on to the next one haha
ohhh shit hahaha yeahh thats right
27t^2/(2 - 2cos(2t)) is dx/dy
aaaaa yeah I did the same thing
Try entering 4/27 then

I got infinity when I solved, but the answersheet says 1
You know about Taylor series?
no
first of all justify that f is continuous in 0 and that f(0)=0 , then lim x-->0+
f(x)-f(0)/x =limx-->0+ x/sinx = 1
How can I justify that f(x) is continuous in 0?
Well actually I can
Or can I?
lemme
f(0+) = infinity
f(0-) = -infinity
Thus f(0) doesn't exist
But it's continuous
But lim(x --> 0+) then I think x/sinx = infinity?
I mean x would be really small, but sinx would always be smaller thus infinity?

<@&286206848099549185>
bruh
I mean I waited 15 minutes before each mention? 
there's a pretty common limit identitiy
$$\lim_{x\to0} \frac{\sin(x)}{x} = 1$$
ℝamonov
(provable with stuff like squeeze/sandwich theorem)
So basically sin(x) = x when lim -> 0?
So basically sin(x) = x when lim -> 0?
not basically

although true, that doesn't tell you much about the limit for sin(x)/x
So I should just memorize it for now?
yes
Alright
I also have 2 more questions (I solved other questions, till I get the answer for this.) should I open a new help channel?
alrighty
I think I'll make a new one

My friend says we have to use a calculator to solve this by saying cos^-1(1/3), and then taking the result and putting it in sin(result) = result.
He says we can't do this without a calculator. Is he right?
( I know technically that most things can be done without a calculator, but in this context, is it ok to expect that we're not supposed to solve without one?)
its expected that you do that without a calc
as well as being able to obtain the simplified exact numerical value

How do i find the equivalent capacitance between A and B
do u see that C1 and C3 are in parallel
I thought they were in series
no u replace C1 and C3 with their equivalent capacitor
then that capacitor and C2 are in series
replace this again with their equivalent capacitor, and finally that cap and C4 will be in parallel
Let me try
Okay got it
I got the answer
But
What i initially did was solve c1 and c3 in parallel and c2 and c4 in parallel then the final result from both in series
How will I know if the result will be in series or parallel with the other capacitor
u cant solve C2 and C4 in parallel coz theres something connected to C2
What is connected to C2
So i add ceq and c2 in series then the result with c4
In parallel
I get it, you mean i cant solve c2 and c4 in parallel and then ceq in series
yes u cant
capacitances dont add in series
$\frac{1}{C_{s}} = \frac{1}{C_{1}} +\frac{1}{C_{2}} +....\frac{1}{C_{n}}$$
yes this is right
ColdTee
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
so u do this with Ceq and C2
Then add normally with c4
that gives u the capacitance of one capcitor that u can replace both Ceq and C2 with
yeah

I have a tree diagram with 15 branchings, the problem exactly is find the exact probability of 5 families out of 15 buy cheese, when the probability of one family buying cheese is 20%. so i guess a tree diagram is fit for this problem, but 15 levels seem a bit too much, is there an alternative way of doing this?

@worn jackal Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
what have you tried so far?
hey i have one doubt here
how can we write equation of a rectangle
i am not getting that point
i tried y = y
what does this mean?
.
is it even possible i mean
equation of rectangle i am not getting
what u mean
i need to get this from the firest two equations
rectangle is 2 dimensional
sow i did y = y
the google translate
imma draw u
wtf
what is
rectangle
i think u cant speak english properly right?
ur question is wrong, a line is one dimension whereas a rectangle is 2 dimension
how that is a rectangle
idk
bruh meh
can u help me now

let me do the whole question again
- Given a line p with the equation: 1 = x/2 + y/3
e) Through the intersection of lines
2x +5y -6 = 0
and
x -3y -3 = 0
place the rectangle on the line
4x -y +5 = 0
. Write it down
the equation of a rectangle.
@torn jolt can u tell me what is this called
this is not a rectangle but a line which is perpendicular to the other line at its foot
if thats the case then m1m2 = -1 formula may come handy

im really stuck
i have like no angles to work with
try some angles
with letters
and try writing down some inequalities
and hopefully u can show it
my hint: look at angles BAC compared to BAO (with O a point inside the triangle, like in your exercise).
then, do the same for the angles in the B corner. then, think about the sum of a triangle's angles.
like the previous user suggested, I realise now :).
usually, by looking at their measures?
yep
how about the angles in the corner B?
there should be a similar inequality there
(ABC+BAC)+ACB=180
(BAO+ABO)+AOB=180
ABC+BAC=180-ACB
BAO+ABO=180-AOB
ABC+BAC>BAO+ABO
180-ACB>180-AOB
so ACB must be smaller
remember to make use of what we said earlier
yes 🙂
I believe this should be a sufficient proof.
although if it's university-level studies, there's definitely far more complex proofs, involving affine spaces, if I am not mistaken
nice! 🙂
no idea what those are lol

how do i prove that -(-a)=a
using only additive identity, inverse of it, multiplicative identity and the reverse of it
What step are you on?
- I don't know where to begin
- I have begun but got stuck midway
- I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
- I got an answer and would like my work checked
- I have a question about someone else's worked solution
- None of the above
i tried some stuff but didnt rly work
ig im at 1 or 2
i dont rly wanna know the answer i just wanna know where to starrt
idk
also, I am not sure where the multiplicative identity come into this
are you sure you need all of these?
Ok, what does the additive inverse satisfy. Like write the statement
no just the ones i can use
tehse are just the ones i can use if i need em
well given any number a for example there exists a nomber x such that
a+x=x+a=0
To be precise
for some given a
if a + x = x + a = 0, then x is a's additive inverse
===
Have you proven that additive inverses are unique?
sure
have you defined what the notation -a actually means?
nah
idk its just my like tution teacher's course
didnt say
The question isn't very well defined then ngl
they should have first defined what -x means
It seems you are working in the context of a ring
and so it could either mean the additive inverse of x
or -1 * x
usually it is defined as the additive inverse of x and then you prove it is equal to -1 * x
===
but you cant define -x as the additive inverse of x until you've proven additive inverses are unique
yeah
idk if what im saying makes sense to u
kinda does
ngl - for this algebra stuff I would generally recommend learning from a book
from what you've said, I don't have much confidence in this
So have they defined what a group or a ring is?
nah

Yeah I would really commend reading a book that introduces algebra properly
Not sure what book to recommend maybe you could ask #book-recommendations for an abstract algebra intro book
As for your original question, iirc, a book should usually do this:
Define what a ring is
Prove additive/multiplicative identities are unique
Prove additive/multiplicative inverses are unique
Then define -x to mean the additive inverse of x
Then you can do your question

the probability to roll at least one 6 with a six sided die in three total throws is ½ right?
no
im just imagining the ⅙ chance of rolling a six, but since its repeated 3 times and you have the same probability it should logically be 3 in 6 right
Think about the same problem rolled 6 times
are you guaranteed a 6 after 6 throws
or even 7 times
theoretically yeah because one in six is a 6
7/6 probability? 
no no
the probability you are after is equal to 1 - the probability of three non-6 values in a row, which is 1 - (5/6)^3
the probability to get at least one 6
Yes, but can't you see your thinking has a problem
if you consider the case of 6 or 7 total throws
ohhh yeah makes sense
The probability to roll at least one 6 in 6 throws is not 1
thank you
7/6 isn't even probability anymore 
but isnt the probability ⅙?
meaning theoretically one kn six throws is a 6
how did you get 1/2 here
for 3 throws
you multiplied 1/6 by 3 i assume
so here i do 1/6 * 6 = 1
Which clearly isn't correct
that would be getting three 6s
oh wait

yeah so the theoretical probability to get one 6 in six throws is 1
what does the ⅙ probability tell us
really?
so you're telling me 6 throws guarantees me at least a 6
you're confusing expectation with probability
i dont thinkt heyve done expectation
A fair die does not mean it will roll a set of 1 through 6 in 6 rolls
Also, consider instead 1/6 * 7 = 7/6
for 7 throws
7/6 needs to be a probability but thats greater than 1
so this is nonsensical
I hope you do

i sorta m confused by that
could you give me an example or smthn
yes
So if k = 5
Then 5 = log(10^5)
We also know that the sum of two logarithms with the same base is equal to the logarithm (of the same base) of the product of their arguments
log(a) + log(b) = log(ab)
So:
5 + log(x)
= log(10^5) + log(x)
= log(100000x)
Yes

I need to find the intersection point of this but I'm confused since I used y2-y1/x2-x2 to find m then with m I found b leaving me with: y = 1 . x -2 but I don't know what to do next to find the intersection
Hang on, so g is a linear function with what they said, yea?
Yes!
Alright I agree with the gradient you got
It says 'G is the lineal function such that g(2)...
But you’re saying that the equation of g is x-2, is it?
Surely it should be +2 instead?
Hmmm after I found the value of m I did
2=1.4+b
2=4+b
-2=b
Alright so g is a line, yea?
The notation g(x) is basically “what the function gives you at x”
yes
So for example, with the other one you have f, you got f(3) =23, yes?
Put x=3 into there and you get f(3)=3(3)+14
So I should replace in f(x) with any of those values of (g) to get the intersection?

studying for a calc ab exam and I haven't seen this exact kinda thing in my notes, but just based on what my teacher has showed in FRQ problems, I "created" this little formula
i just wanted to validate that this is true?
$p(c) = p(a) + \int_{a}^{c} v(x)$
Kihei
where (a, p(a)) is an initial value
idk ive seen this kinda question in frqs a lot
asking p(something)
and then velocity functions given
and an initial position
in general $f(c) = f(a) + \int_a^c f'(x) dx$ for every differentiable function $f(x)$

thanks!
just found this https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0609775v4.pdf
Its still an open problem lol
.yeah, a lot of things to do with riemann is open
I just wonderd why 1/n^3 shouldnt be a multiple of pi^3 then
it would fit in the pattern
the evens are multiples of pi^n due to bernoulli (I dont think its too hard of a proof)

but odd ones are much harder
I only understand like 20% of this paper
How mathematical integrals work?
which one 🤓
its basically you sum the area of a bunch of rectangles
you approximate the area by rectangles
and then you make the approximation exactly accurate by taking a limit to infinity

I need help on the bracket one
What have you tried
Only the first one
Show your work
I didn't do any working out
That’s what I meant by “what have you tried”
expanding the binomial squared is a start
Yes
Do you have any idea on how to approach the problem or are you clueless?
Actually
You don’t have to do that
I'm clueles
Alright, do you know mathematical induction?
i don't think induction is necessary
sure you can try considering 2 cases instead, n being even and n being odd
lots of way to do it
No
induction is easier tho
Nah
you just need to use the knowledge that an even number multiplied by any number odd or even is even
That is true but it is easier and more systematic
Yes
It can be done in two seconds without induction.
Yes
proof?
Can u explain how they got the answer then
if you quickly expand it, it becomes 4n^2+6n+3, you know it's odd bc 4n^2+6n has to be even
||2n + 2 is even => (2n+2)² is even
2n + 1 is odd => (2n+2)² - (2n+1) is odd||
H ow is there 8n
and now you have left this unproven
They expanded the binomial
I don't think this paper asks for a formal all-inclusive proof
They factored out a 2 from as many terms as possible
seeing as the questions are rather "basic"
Very easy to prove
this is a fair point
an even number x even number = even number is not really necessary to be proven
There's multiple ways to do it, one using mathematical induction and another as written by Silfer
Even number * any number is even without needing any justification, stop hypocrisy
hypocrisy is rather rude
Indeed
Ok thx I definitely understand the whole thing
oh, it's okay
It's not a hypocrisy, you have to prove anything that you're not already taught
anyway
you can prove it, but we should move that to #math-discussion if you want to talk about it since it will be offtopic
seems that the situation needlessly escalated
Good, let us know if you get stuck
I will retract my comment of induction being easier, it's not in this case
Can u help me understand the graph one
do you know how graph transformations work?
Is that the shifted graph one?
Should I watch a video about it
Yes
I mean it's not hard if you think about it. Like say you have value y0 = f(0) which is f(x), x = 0
Ohhh ok
Now for f(x+1), to get the same value of y0, you'll need x=(-1) cause f(x+1) = f(0) = y0
So, basically everything needs to be adjusted by 1
Thus the whole graph shifts left by 1
Ok I understand how about the bottom one

,rotate
$\frac{\left(3\sqrt{2}\right)^2}{6 + 3\sqrt{2}}$
biggboy
you sure that its a plus?
is it an asterisk
This is correct
oh
confused the OP lol sorry
so I guess first rationalise the denominator
do you know how to do that
Not with multiple terms
how about the conjugate of 6 + 3√2
No clue what that means lol
if we were to "enlarge" the fravtion with 6 - 3√2 the denominator becomes a difference of squares right
it other words multiplying by (6-3√2)/(6-3√2)
sure

find a positive number so that subtracting the number itself from its triple cube gives the smallest difference
triple cube?
3a^3 i assume
sure
you can use a function such as f(x) = 3x³ - x
which describes the difference that we need to find the minumum of
notice that you can factor out a "x"
x(3x^2-1)?
yep
yeah I think so
gee thanks
triple cube sounds like 3 times a cube tough, not 3 times x^3
you mean 3 times a all cubed
I believe I translated it wrong because in my language it should be 3a^3
though i will try both
27x³ - x is similar
well then do that
(X³)³ ?
3x^2 lol

i need help
!status
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'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
Post your work
I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
For 7x + 44 = 24, x = -2. For 3x + 2y = 10, x = 5 and y = 0.
Don't give out answers
it was wrong
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
Sorry
i cant im on pc and im doing on paper
work is something that you've written in attempt to solving the problem
type it here
Use the systems of equations
7x + 4y = 24, ...
x = 4
Wait what is the question asking though
No one asked you. If you look above, they attempted but got something wrong, hence the show work part
Send that as well
y = -1
Don't give out answers
oh sorry

Which variable would I remove first idk why I’m confused about this one
y or z are the easiest ones
aok so I can do the first equation and the third and then 2nd and 3rd and that would work?
removing z variable
just multiply the third equation by -5 and add it the second equation to remove the variable
Closed by @frail geode
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
do the same thing to remove the z from the first equation
multiply the third equation by 7 then add the result to the first equation
Ty
anytime
yep

How would I solve a problem like this
God I hate android photo quality
any picture of a monitor is gonna be bad
Lemme try to retake it
no its fine
Volume of cone is 1/3 volume of cylinder
We get this amazing thing that the volume of a cone and sphere together make a cylinder (assuming they fit each other perfectly)
0-0
Wait
If a cone is 1/3rd of a cylinder
Would I just add it 3 times then?
bruh y'all can't just leave me hanging like that : (
did you try using this in your problem
Think so
since 96 is 1/3 of the cylinder
A full cylinder would be 288
Oh.....
I see..
Ok so uh
I ran into another question
Ik you can barely see the answers but
If I try to find the volume of the cylinder using the method I just used
It doesn't match up any of the answers

At the bulk food store, almonds sell for $7.20/kg and cashews sell for $9.20/kg. Find the mass of each type of nut in a 100 kg bin with an almond-cashew mixture that sells for $8.80/kg
idk how to do this question
it'll be a system of equations
to set it up we need variables that represent the amount of almonds and the amount of cashews
yeah
then try to look for the parts of the word problem that give you the equations
ah
so just thinking like if it was an english comprehension problem
what parts of the problem represent "constraints"?
we have to find the mass
omggg im so confussed
ya idk dude
ohh wait so 100kg bin
for each type of nut
so almonds are $7.20/kg
so $7.20x100?
@rotund delta Has your question been resolved?
no this guy left me💀
ok i think i can help
so we start with our variables, C for cashews and A for almonds

i need a helper to make sure
i got you my boy
No the second one is wrong
<@&286206848099549185>
oh
Bro just called you stupid nicely
The third one is also wrong
lol
oh..
Naa not to me
nope
ok ok
Looks like he just likes to do things in his free time
im just asking if their right
no you don’t
Well they're wrong
helpers don’t always have the right answer, and they could be busy
ok
Those are fine
Those are also fine
yea its an assignment
Wrong

can someone explain how I would factor and simplify this problem? i'm not sure what to do with the negative exponents
I mean you can still factor it with negative exponents
You group it by a common factor
i'm not supposed to have negative exponents in the answer
Write it as a fraction :P
Well if ur unfamiliar with negative exponents you can write is as a fraction
would i then just take out fractions like a normal problem without negatives
wait let me write it
i didn't multiply it yet cause i was wondering if i could pull out x+7
wait
i'm dumb
i really thought i had it this time but it still says it's incorrect, idk what's wrong

how to solve it
Try putting the value of x as 0 in the equation first
Doesn't work
I think he knows that
Mb
yup
It'll become indeterminate
it gives ln2/0
On x = 0
Oh yes, you are right, sorry
When you plug x=0 in it, it becomes ln(2)/0.
Can't think of any simplification either
why are you repeating me
In the unlikely event that the question is wrong
I also feel same becuase answer is given ln2
There should be a 1 left in the denominator then I'd say
Can you verify the question from somewhere
no @grave elm
Which one?
oh well :/

try to reform the second line to also be like L2=v1+t*vector2
then you have the origins basically given, and u can get the intersection by equating both line functions
ok
