this is just your usual u substitution

#

but with the letter y

#

find dy in terms of dx

#

if y = f^(-1)(x) then x = ?

#

which is...?

#

u?

#

right

#

so x = f(y)

#

should be clear to you now

#

good job, no worries

er wait i think you need more in the tan int

#

yeah you need to times by the derivative of arctan(x)

Here is my problem or question...

full forumBOT
torn prairie
#

how tall is the great pyramid?

The height of the Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Khufu, is 146.7 meters (481 feet).

is the a meaning to the number 481

The height of the Great Pyramid of Giza being 481 feet is just a measurement and doesn't have any symbolic meaning as far as we know. It was built thousands of years ago, and the exact method used to determine its height is not known. However, it's likely that the ancient Egyptians used a simple measuring system based on their own body parts, such as cubits, to determine the dimensions of the pyramid.

what is 481 feet in cubits?

A cubit is an ancient unit of length that was used in many civilizations, including ancient Egypt. It is estimated to have been about 44.5 cm (17.5 inches) in length, but there is some variation in the length of cubits used in different periods and locations.

To convert 481 feet to cubits, we need to know the exact length of the cubit used in ancient Egypt, which is not known with certainty. However, using the estimated length of 44.5 cm per cubit, we can calculate that 481 feet is approximately 755 cubits. Please note that this is just an estimate and the actual length in cubits may have varied.

44.5 times 755

If we multiply 44.5 (the estimated length of one cubit in centimeters) by 755 (the estimated number of cubits that make up the height of the Great Pyramid), we get approximately 33,497.5 cm, or 335 meters.

335 meters converted to feet?

To convert 335 meters to feet, we can use the conversion factor of 1 meter = 3.2808 feet. Multiplying 335 by 3.2808, we get approximately 1096.47 feet.

481 minus 335

If we subtract 335 (meters) from 481 (meters), we get 146 (meters), which is the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Is this possibly how the Egyptians measured with cubits?

normal tree
#

is that written by chatgpt

torn prairie
#

Me and chat gpt yes

normal tree
#

what is your question then

#

all I see is a word salad

torn prairie
#

Is that accurate or just nonsense?

meager dew
#

yummy

#

ask chatgpt if its lying

normal tree
#

hence why I asked whether it was chatgpt

torn prairie
#

Is it accurate?

normal tree
#

accurate in what sense?

#

every sentence is true?

torn prairie
#

IDK, I think I just figured out how ancient egyptians measured using cubits

normal tree
#

is that your question?

torn prairie
#

are the calculations correct?

normal tree
#

what is your question

#

just state your question ffs

torn prairie
#

Are the calculations from the long message correct?

normal tree
#

which one

torn prairie

All the calculations..

short answer is no

why can't you check them yourself

How do I find the velocity in here? I know it’s displacement/time so v1-v0/t but how do I find the displacement using what I have here

meager dew
#

$\bar{v}=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

glossy valveBOT
#

a disappointing son

twin wolf
#

For example like 6.25m/s - 0m/s or something?

meager dew
#

x is not speed

twin wolf
#

Oh

#

The length right

meager dew
#

$\Delta x$ represents displacement

glossy valveBOT
#

a disappointing son

twin wolf
#

so am I using the 10m from the distance

#

for the first row*

meager dew
#

distance does not equal displacement

#

displacement is $x_f-x_i$

glossy valveBOT
#

a disappointing son

twin wolf
#

Change in distance?

meager dew
#

correct

twin wolf
#

So for example the first row the change in distance would be 10m and 0m because the initial distance is 0?

meager dew
#

er -- position, rather

#

no

#

you start at O, move to A, then move back to O

#

so your final position is at O and so is your initial position

#

meaning you have a displacement of ...?

twin wolf
#

Oh 0?

#

Because you are exactly where you started?

meager dew
#

oh shoot i was looking at the 2nd row lol

meager dew
#

for O-A-O, displacement is 0

twin wolf
#

Okay

meager dew
#

sorry, was looking at the wrong one

#

you are correct for the first one

#

displacement would be 10

twin wolf
#

So 10/1.6 for the first one then

meager dew
#

yes

twin wolf
#

Oh so the average speed and velocity would be the same

meager dew
#

correct

twin wolf
#

Alright

#

And the second one because it’s 0….. soooo 0/3.5

#

But that’s just 0 isn’t it

meager dew
#

yep

twin wolf
#

Oh I think I found the pattern. So for any column in the table where you return to the original position, the average speed and velocity would be 0 and anything that doesn’t return would be the same as your average speed correct?

meager dew
#

that's correct, but i would recommend knowing the logic behind that rather than seeing the pattern

twin wolf
#

Yeah I think I understand why that is not just the pattern

#

Thanks for the help!

gentle glacier
#

Vertex of parabola is (-1, 16), equation of graph written as -ax^2+ bx + c find highest possible value of b

torn jolt
#

given the vertex, give me the equation of the function

gentle glacier
#

really?

#

just that

torn jolt
#

no

gentle glacier
#

oh

torn jolt
#

just give me

gentle glacier
#

should i give

#

okok

#

il give you

torn jolt
#

all of em

#

all the possible equations

gentle glacier
#

a

#

?

#

i got confused

#

What do I give you

#

the formula i got?

torn jolt
#

sure

gentle glacier
#

what i first did was = -a(x+1)^2+16

torn jolt
#

yes

gentle glacier
#

and then I expanded it

#

to get

torn jolt
#

ok

#

ur on the right track

gentle glacier
#

= -a(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 16

#

so then

#

= -a (x^2 + 2x + 17)

#

so far so good?

#

and then I replaced values

torn jolt
#

yeah

gentle glacier
#

so

#

I got -1 for a

torn jolt
#

huh?

gentle glacier
#

I do not know if i got it right

#

i can check

torn jolt
#

what value you replaced?

gentle glacier
#

16 = -a (-1)

torn jolt
#

why

gentle glacier
#

plugged in the vertex

torn jolt
#

if you plug in the vertex its gonna be true

#

the vertex is independent of a

gentle glacier
#

so what should i do

torn jolt
gentle glacier
#

ah yes

#

ok. i understand

#

but what should be my next step

torn jolt
#

so you got -ax^2 + -2ax + 16-a right

gentle glacier
#

yeah

torn jolt
#

so b = -2a

#

since a can be anything in R

#

b doesnt have a maximum value

#

you can get any number for b also

gentle glacier
#

wait but would it be 17a or 17?

torn jolt
#

but assuming how it wrote -a i think a is (constrained) to be a positive number

gentle glacier
#

ok

torn jolt
#

but even then b doesnt have a maximum

#

unless there is extra conditions in the problem

gentle glacier
#

To be honest Idk

#

it was a quesiton I remembered i dont have the ms

#

in any case If they give you a vertex

#

to find b I should just do these same steps?

torn jolt
gentle glacier
#

and then you equal

#

ok

#

i got it

#

thanks

warm vale
#

can someone help explain how to turn 2-2i into it's polar form

torn jolt
#

find the norm

warm vale
#

i am not sure how the - changes it

torn jolt
#

the minus?

warm vale
#

changes the end result that is

torn jolt
#

like just do 2-2i = (2) + (-2)i

warm vale
#

but when working out the θ, I get a different value for cos(θ) and sin(θ), is that ok?

#

I got the one in the cos bracket as being positive

#

and i think it comes down to me getting confused over having a negative length value

sharp vine
#

cos(-x) = cos(x)

#

so if you have

#

cos(pi/4) it's fine

torn jolt
#

sin(x) = -sin(-x)

warm vale
#

ohh ok, so would work out both cos(θ) and sin(θ) and then use cos(-θ) = cos(θ) to make sure they are the same

#

to make sure the θ values are consistent in both i mean

torn jolt
#

but i mean me personally i would just do z=a+bi => a = |z|arccos(a/|z|), b = |z|arcsin(b/|z|)

#

no matter if its positive or negative

thoughts on how i can isolate for y to sub in my condition

ivory cairn
#

your set up is wrong

restive hawk
#

):

ivory cairn
#

the x^2/(y^2-8) just moves to the other side of the equals, it should be flipped

restive hawk
#

ho rigg

#

no

#

i flipped my divisions

#

and multiplicatins

#

yeah

#

whoops

#

does this look better

ivory cairn
#

yes

restive hawk
#

and x side is an easy integratin

#

assuming i need u sub for y side

#

gotten up to here but kind of stuck for isolation

#

i think i may have to use my initial condition y(1)=sqrt9 to drop the sign

ivory cairn
#

exponential functions are always positive, so you don't need the absolute values

restive hawk
#

oh thats true

ivory cairn
#

i think anyway....

restive hawk
#

well that makes sense

#

plus in my initial cond

#

i have a positive

#

so a negative sign would never work

#

on a positive exp

#

at least from looking ahead

sand belfry
restive hawk
#

yeah i corrected those

#

i had my signs flipped

#

pretty sure this is better

ionic gate

How would I do this?

full forumBOT
rocky vale
#

Do you know what is meant by stationary points?

ionic gate
#

When the gradient is 0

rocky vale
#

right so you want dy/dx = 0

ionic gate
#

Yess

rocky vale
#

So how can we get dy/dx from these parametric equations? 🤔

ionic gate
#

I tried doing it implicitly like x=y^3/2 -8y^1/2

#

But when I Don't know if that's right

rocky vale
#

You could probably do something along those lines

#

but

#

it's much simpler to just do

#

dy/dx = (dy/dt) / (dx/dt)

ionic gate
#

Yea
but how whould I do that

rocky vale
#

well, what's dy/dt?

#

you are given y in terms of t

ionic gate
#

Ohh

#

Give me a sec

#

2t

#

And dx/dt is 3t^2-8

rocky vale
#

which means dy/dx = ?

ionic gate
#

2t/(3t^2-8)

rocky vale
#

Right

#

So do you see how you can proceed from here?

ionic gate
#

2t/(3t^2-8)=0
And solve it?

rocky vale
#

right

#

and then use your solutions for t to find your stationary point(s)

ionic gate
#

I got t=0

rocky vale
#

yep

ionic gate
#

Is that right?

#

So (0,0) ?

#

I don't have the answer

rocky vale
#

Yes

#

since your parametric equations both give 0 at t=0

ionic gate
#

Okay I didn't make any mistakes right

rocky vale
#

Nope, that's all good 👍

ionic gate
#

Oh nvm
I plotted it

#

Ty

#

This actually is alot simpler

Like (0.99,-1) and (1.01, 3) would be a jump

#

But (0.99,2) and (1.01, 2) would be a discontinuity

ahhh so a significant change to the y axis is the only thing that qualifies it as a jump?

this is a discontinuity because the value at x=2 is not defined

#

and the other half are labeled T

#

about how many H should we expect to see if we roll the dice 1000 times?

fathom cairn
#

so you mean there are 3 H‘s and 3 T‘s because a dice has 6 sites. So it would be 333

simple totem
#

why 333?

fathom cairn
#

1000/3?

simple totem
#

why are you dividing by 3

fathom cairn
#

Should not?

simple totem
#

what are your chances to land on an H?

fathom cairn
#

okey 500

simple totem
#

yes

#

so if instead of H and T

#

we say the dice has 3 sides with the number "4"

#

and the other 3 with a different number

#

how many times should we expect to see the number "4" if we roll the dice 1000 times

fathom cairn
#

500?

simple totem
#

yes it's exactly the same

fathom cairn
#

yea okey now in relation to my task

simple totem
#

now if instead we had 2 sides labeled "4", and the other 4 sides labeled something else

#

this is all in relation to your task

#

hopefully you see the dice they gave you have exactly the sides im describing

fathom cairn
#

ye

simple totem
#

we have 2 sides labeled "4"

#

and 4 sides labeled something else

fathom cairn
#

Hmh

simple totem
#

so 2/6 sides are labeled "4"

#

that is

#

1/3 of the sides

#

so we should expect to see "4" 1000 * 1/3 times

#

what's 1000/3?

fathom cairn
#

333

simple totem
#

which number is closer to 324, 500 or 333?

fathom cairn
#

324

simple totem
#

the choices are 333 or 500

fathom cairn
#

333

#

ye lol

#

bruh

simple totem
#

so then which dice was probably rolled?

fathom cairn
#

Ye okey number 1

#

okey wait a minute

#

I have to learn more about that…

(Maybe do you know some good websites..?

can i use universal generalization to proof that odd+odd=even
for examplr:
1+1=2

% for modulo
1%2=1 1-> 1 is odd
2%2=0 -> 2 is even

warm abyss
#

And how does this prove that odd + odd = even?

young bramble
#

idk

#

that was my question if this is enough to prove

#

I wasnt sure if just adding any 2 arbitrarily chosen odd numbers and having an even number as sum was enough

warm abyss
#

No. Two examples are not a proof

#

You can make it like this:

#

Let a, b be arbitary odd numbers

#

Then a mod 2 = b mod 2 = 1

#

What is a + b mod 2 then?

young bramble
#

0

#

oh ok

warm abyss
#

Yeah

#

So if you take the sum ANY two odd numbers the result is even

young bramble
#

but this isnt universal generalizazion right?

#

idk im probably just mixing up stuff

warm abyss
#

Wdym with universal generalization? You were just giving an example for which it is right

warm abyss
#

Ist nicht einfach. Der Unterschied zur Schule ist, das es jeder kann. Aber, wenn man Spaß an der Mathematik hat, ist es durchaus machbar

young bramble
#

Was kann man mit Mathe nach dem Studium außer Forschung eigentlich machen?

warm abyss
#

Mathematik kannst du durchaus auch im Versicherungswesen oder auch in der Wirtschaft verwenden (Risikomanagement). Auch kannst du (zumindest) in Bayern Mathe nur mit Integriertem Anwendungsfach (Informatik, Physik, Chemie, ...) studieren.

How do I plot the eigenvectors? Will it just be one vector with a direction on matlab?

#

I have this scatter plot.

#

And this is my calculated eigen vector on the covariance.

fast peak

plot([0,0], [x,y]) or some variation of that

vapid pivot

Like this?

fast peak
#

something like that, yes. but that vector looks wrong

vapid pivot
#

my values change when I run the code

#

that's the new values

#

What does it mean by "length given by the square root of the eigenvalues" Is it sqrt(.9633+17.0006)?

fast peak
#

how are you using the eig command

#

it should give you two things

#

a list of eigenvalues

#

and a list of eigenvectors

vapid pivot
#

It just gives me two values

fast peak
#

ok that's just the eigenvalues

#

use [V, D] = eig(C)

Oh okay I have two 2x2 matrices now

the first has as columns the eigenvectors with norm 1

the second has on the diagonal the eigenvalues

#

why is this wrong?

#

i guess if we take the slope of each line and plug it into the equation we get -4 but -4 isnt a answer

hot herald
#

show full work

frail perch
#

hey ramonov 🙂

hot herald
#

which equation are you plugging into

#

you should be at some point applying something like quotient rule

frail perch
#

i didnt do any work for it i just tought about it

hot herald
#

i didnt do any work for it i just tought about it
not a good idea, always do the work

#

you got it wrong because you didn't do the work

frail perch
#

i did QR earlier but the answer wasnt right

#

lemme try one more tim e

#

it should be 0

#

but its not correct

#

or wait

#

should it be -2x/(1/2)x?

hot herald
#

where are the 0s coming from

#

g(2) isn't 1/2 either

#

nor is f(2) equal to -2

frail perch
#

Well I'm looking for f'(x)

#

So I took the slope of the line

hot herald
#

the question wants P'(2),
so you'd want to slope where x=2

frail perch
#

Like I'm confused about the approach

hot herald
#

considering the quotient rule and not being lazy with notation
$$P'(x) = \frac{g(x)f'(x) - f(x)g'(x)}{(g(x))^2}$$
$$P'(2) = \frac{g(2)f'(2) - f(2)g'(2)}{(g(2))^2}$$
$f'(2)$ is the slope of $f(x)$ where $x=2$ \
$g'(2)$ is the slope of $g(x)$ where $x=2$ \
$f(2),g(2)$ can be read directly off the graph

lunar iris
torn jolt
#

@lunar iris

#

wait are the bounds always where they intersect?

buoyant tinsel
#

I think you've misunderstood where your region is

#

it's always the bounded region

#

so your drawing in the top right would be correct

torn jolt
#

i see now ty

#

so i would be using disc method

#

@buoyant tinsel

buoyant tinsel
#

yes

torn jolt
#

@buoyant tinsel could u help me visualize 55b?

buoyant tinsel
#

55b would be the same thing, except your axis of rotation is just moved up one unit

#

something like that

torn jolt
#

but theres a hole

#

bc theres still y = 1

buoyant tinsel
#

where's the hole?

torn jolt
#

theres y = 1 and theres y = 2

#

the area is bounded between x^2 and y = 1

buoyant tinsel
#

oh sorry I misread

torn jolt
#

no worries

buoyant tinsel
#

yeah then I guess you would have a gap

torn jolt
#

so it would be like a split up ball?

buoyant tinsel
#

it would be a silo shape with a hole through the center

torn jolt
#

ok i see thank u

#

washer is very confusing to me, im not sure why

buoyant tinsel
#

I like to think of it as subtracting two disc methods (which it is)

#

it just combines the integral, which might make it confusing for some people

torn jolt
#

so lets say we are doing 55c

#

if we basically subtract 2 discs methods, bigger radius minus smaller

#

why isnt it 1^2 - (x^2)^2?

#

@buoyant tinsel

buoyant tinsel
#

that would be correct if your axis of rotation were y = 0

torn jolt
#

wait mb

#

so that means R is 2^2 in this case?

#

like i dont understand how to determine whats big R and whats little r

buoyant tinsel
#

for part c, yeah: (1 - (-1))^2

#

big R is just the bigger radius

torn jolt
#

2 right

buoyant tinsel
#

yeah

torn jolt
#

and whats little R?

#

x^2?

buoyant tinsel
#

your axis of rotation is y = -1, so you need to add 1 to your radius

#

so (x - (-1))^2 = (x + 1)^2

#

that would be your little r

torn jolt
#

so if axis rotation is negative, u add

#

if its positive, u subtract

buoyant tinsel
#

well no, it's all relative to your function

torn jolt
#

can i pick an example and u go through it with me please

buoyant tinsel
#

sorry it's very late here so I gotta head out soon, but basically it's just the distance from your function to the AOR

torn jolt
#

no problem thank u

# wraith ivy Hey can someone explain me how to do this ?

Sure! I'll explain each part of the task.

a) The distance between two numbers in the respective formats in the interval [0, 1.4] and [10, 100] can be calculated as follows:

For the decimal floating-point format G(10, 3), the distance between two numbers is given by the smallest representable difference, which can be calculated as:

G(10, 3) = 0.001

For the decimal fixed-point format F(10, 2, 2), the distance between two numbers is given by the smallest representable difference, which can be calculated as:

F(10, 2, 2) = 0.01

b) The upper limit of the absolute error, which is determined by G and F in the intervals [0, 1.4] and [10, 100], can be calculated as:

For the interval [0, 1.4], the upper limit of the absolute error is given by the smallest representable difference, which is:

G(10, 3) = 0.001
F(10, 2, 2) = 0.01

For the interval [10, 100], the upper limit of the absolute error is given by the smallest representable difference, which is:

G(10, 3) = 0.001
F(10, 2, 2) = 0.01

c) The upper limit of the relative error, which is determined by G and F in the intervals [0, 1.4] and [10, 100], can be calculated as:

For the interval [0, 1.4], the upper limit of the relative error is given by the ratio of the smallest representable difference to the value being represented, which is:

G(10, 3) = 0.001 / 1.4 = 0.0007143
F(10, 2, 2) = 0.01 / 1.4 = 0.007143

For the interval [10, 100], the upper limit of the relative error is given by the ratio of the smallest representable difference to the value being represented, which is:

G(10, 3) = 0.001 / 100 = 0.00001
F(10, 2, 2) = 0.01 / 100 = 0.0001

I hope this explanation helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

How wrong am I

short siren
#

First you had to divide because the power of the numerator is bigger than the power of the denominator

hollow grove
#

Convert the improper fraction to proper fraction

torn jolt
#

Photo math says Im missing like x^2/2 -5x

short siren
#

Hmm

#

First do polynomial division

torn jolt
#

Why

short siren
#

Because the numerator is $x^3 +4$ which has a bigger degree than $x^2 +5x+6$

torn jolt
#

Does that give the remainder I guess?

short siren
#

Yeah

torn jolt
#

Thanks that makes sense

short siren
#

You do the polynomial division

#

Then you get a remainder

#

Then you do partial fractions on the remainder

torn jolt
#

I did partial fractions on the original prompt right

#

But that’s not the remainder of poly div

Hey, just a quick question, what does triviality for intersection mean? thx :)

spice orchid

you need to provide more context

# winged lava Hey, just a quick question, what does triviality for intersection mean? thx :)

Triviality for intersection refers to a property of two sets in mathematics, where the intersection of the two sets is an empty set, i.e., the two sets have no elements in common. This is also known as "disjoint sets." When two sets are trivial for intersection, they are considered to be non-overlapping and disjoint. In this case, the intersection of the two sets is said to be a trivial one.

hello

full forumBOT
torn jolt
#

I need help finding the complex numbers of a poly function

#

the question is x^4+5x^2+4

#

Since its a 4th degree im not sure how to aprocche it

#

I tried the rational zeros test. got nothing

#

Hello?

spice orchid
#

this is a quadratic equation in disguise, try a substitution

torn jolt
#

we have not done U subsition yet

#

can you do long division?

spice orchid
torn jolt
#

oh

spice orchid
torn jolt
#

(x+4) and (x+1) by the whole thing

spice orchid
#

why?

torn jolt
#

idk lol

#

ok so im guessing we need to make it into a quatratic before we can work with it correct?

#

its missing 2 terms

#

so

spice orchid
#

it already is a quadratic, just hidden

#

write x^4 as (something)^2

torn jolt
#

oh we can pull out the x^2

#

as a coomon factor

spice orchid
#

well you dont want to pull it out thats not going to help you

#

but you should notice that it is a quadratic in the variable x^2

torn jolt
#

hmm

#

so (x^4+ n)^2

#

corrcet

spice orchid
#

I have not idea what you've done

torn jolt
#

I dont know how to make it un hidden.

#

(x^2+4)(x^2+1)

#

becasue it add to give u 5 and times to give u 4

spice orchid
#

that is a correct factorisation yes

torn jolt
#

so so we set them to zero

spice orchid
#

if you're trying to find the roots then yes

torn jolt
#

so the roots are x=2,1

#

how do we find the complex zeros with that

#

can you just tell me how the hidden quad lookslike

mental creek
#

we can set these function equal to zero since f(-5)=f(4)=f(0)=0

#

When we solve for x then it produces the (x+5)(x-4) and x=0 which is where we get x(x+5)(x-4)

#

from there we plug f(3) into that function and we get -24 but since we know that f(3)=96 then dividing by what we got means that we plug the -4 in front of the initial x

torn jolt
#

where did you get (x+5)(x-4)

#

nevermind i get it

mental creek
#

f(4)=0 and f(-5)=0, therefore we can set both equal to 0. The inside of the f(x) is x, so x+5=0 ---> x=-5. same with f(4), x-4=0 ----> x=4

torn jolt
#

how did you make f(3)=(3+5)(3-4)

mental creek
#

the f(3) means that we plug 3 into all terms of x, so we took the x(x+5)(x-4) and plugged 3 into all terms

#

leaving us with 3(3+8)(3-4)

#

remember that f(x)=y, all the f(x) means is that whatever number is on the inside of the parenthesis is being substituted for x

#

for example f(x)=x then if we had f(4) it would be f(4)=4, also f(-4)=-4

torn jolt
#

well your way is much easier than what i was trying to do

#

where did i go wrong with my attempt?

mental creek
#

Well to be completely honest I see the direction you were taking but I personally do not know how to get the values that way. You have the right track with the cubic function but instead of having the entire formula equal to the value it would often be best to figure out what it means when f(x)=0. Like how f(-5)=0 can be represented as x+5

torn jolt
#

gotcha

#

learned a new way

mental creek
#

and similarly for f(3), once we figure out what the other terms are represented by then we can just plug in the value get our solution and figure out the value that gives us what f(3) equals by dividing the actual value by the value we plugged in

#

Did that solve everything?

torn jolt
#

yes thank you

How do I get a numerical value for b and a ? For x and n I'd know the values beforehand, say 10 and 1 as an example, but I'd want to be able to set different values to them depending on the situation.

I need a way to solve for an approximate value of b so that x is as close to equal it's input value as possible.

a = (x - b) / 0.3659 / 0.0011

b = 0.001 * (a * 0.3655) + ((a * (1 + 0.00031)^n - a) * 0.3395)

Hi guys, working on this and I'm really stuck. I actually have a answer sheet but I don't want to see the full answer, I just want a nudge to be able to figure it out:
https://i.imgur.com/MY4XtOm.png

tardy halo
#

First question is, in $y^{(p+q)} the $(p+q)$ means p+q-th derivative. But inside of the function $y = x^p(1 + x)^q$ the p and q seem to be regular exponents. Am I right in this?

spice orchid
#

Where ever they appear p and q are just numbers

#

They appear as exponents and in "how many times to differentiate"

tardy halo
#

I see, yeah that's what I figured

#

but then the lectures / reading never went over how to take the

#

nth derivative of something...

spice orchid
#

There is literally a formula for it directly above

tardy halo
#

haha well ok applying it for the product rule

#

I can do

#

but how do I take the p+qth derivative of one of th eterms like x^p

#

wait is it just nested leibniz?

spice orchid
#

Just think about what repeated applications of the power rule does

tardy halo
#

I can see it I think even for a regular nth derivative but p+q is really throwing me off

#

is this actually a hard problem or am I being dense?

#

like how far into calculus do you need to be to see this as easy?

spice orchid
#

tell me what happens when you do repeated application of the power rule to x^p

#

calculate the first few derivatives and notice a pattern

tardy halo
#

I wrote it out here and deleted it 😭

#

it would be $px^{p-1} then p(p-1)(x)^{p-2} then p(p-1)(p-2)(x)^{p-3}$

glossy valveBOT
tardy halo
#

but here I just decided to stop at the 2nd derivative

#

how do you know when to stop at the p+qth derivative

Hi. Last week, I was sick and I missed a lot of lessons, now I don’t really understand how to do this

torn jolt
#

suggestion: multiply by the common factor between the fractions for both equations to get a system of two linear equations

stable heart
#

i think in this particular case they want you to add the two together to cancel out the y terms

torn jolt
#

then you can solve the system of linear equations the standard way you would do

torn jolt
stable heart
#

yes both will work. but i believe teachers generally want the add/subtract method if the problem really suits it as it shows you know both methods

#

in this particular case it is much easier to do so

calm kiln
#

So if I do equation 1 - equation 2 i’ll have

y/3 - - y/3 = -2 - 12 so,
y/3 + y/3 = -14
but what do I do after and is this even correct ?

stable heart
#

that can for example work yes, now you have $$\frac{y}{3}+\frac{y}{3}=-14$$you can combine the two $y$ terms to get $$\frac{2y}{3}=-14$$and then you can multiply both sides by $\frac{3}{2}$, do you think you can take it from here?

glossy valveBOT
#

Duh Hello

calm kiln
#

so 6y/6 so y = -14?

#

or do I also multiply -14?

stable heart
#

well theres an equal sign there, to preserve it yes you must do it to both sides

calm kiln
#

okay so

y = -14 x 3/2 so -21?

#

so y = -21

stable heart
#

correct

#

now you can simply plug that into either of the other formulas and solve for x from there

acoustic frost
calm kiln
#

x/2 - -21/3 = 12 for instance?

stable heart
#

for example that yes

#

doesnt matter which one

#

you will get the same answer no matter what

calm kiln
#

x/2 - -7 = 12
x/2 + 7 = 12
x/2 = 5
x = 5x2 = 10?

stable heart
#

also in this particular problem i just want to note one thing. it would be a bit faster to instead of subtracting the 2 equations you could instead add them. once you do you would simple get $$\frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3}-\frac{y}{3}=12-2$$ which would then get $x=10$ and then you could plug in $y$, looking at each option to see which is faster might save you some time

glossy valveBOT
#

Duh Hello

calm kiln
#

but why do I get x and not y? that’s what I don’t get

stable heart
#

the y's cancel out in this case since we add instead of subtract. in your case you cancelled the x's so we get y' instead. either way it does not matter which one you choose, but a lot of the time one is more convenient than the other

calm kiln
#

ahhh.

#

okay.

#

Thank you so much.

dense edge
#

How is this the same thing as slope formula?

#

[1,3]

#

Isn’t 1 the input and 3 the output? Or am I misreading this set notation for [1,3]?

small pier
#

(x+1)^2-(x^2+2x+1) factor this expression

nova basin
#

[1, 3] just the closed interval. So you're just taking the slope between the endpoints, which is the average slope

dense edge
#

displacement used the functions, time uses the inputs.. but they are using the exact same numbers somehow

dense edge
#

[1,3] indicates both x and y?

#

Are the same?

nova basin
#

what do you think you're computing here ?

dense edge
#

I’m not sure

#

I don’t understand how to interpret the end points

nova basin
#

s(t) is your position as a function of time

dense edge
#

Normally I see [1,3] and think of it as a single coordinate (1 is input, 3 is output)

nova basin
#

find the average speed between t = 1 and t = 3

nova basin
#

it is

#

intervals != coordinates

dense edge
#

is this an interval on the x axis?

#

or the y axis

#

How can you tell?

nova basin
#

I invite you to think about what the problem might represent

dense edge
#

Or is it just a number line?

nova basin
#

as an interpretation of the meaning of this sentence

dense edge
#

Alright, if it’s just the number line.. I suppose that would mean x axis
