all g dw bro
Yes, makes it easier
can u explain how to do this without calc
instead of me just doing inverse of cos
on calc
$\sec t &= \sqrt{2} \
\sec t &= \frac{1}{\cos x}$

Now what if we did something sneaky
Because we don't know how to do this
What if we just
$(\frac{1}{\cos x})^{-1} = (\sqrt{2})^{-1}$
Kappa Mikey
Because that will give us
on the left side, cos(x), which we know how to handle
And on the right side
$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
Kappa Mikey
Kappa Mikey
Then $\cos t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
Kappa Mikey
Because $\sec t = (\cos t)^{-1}$
Kappa Mikey
$x^{-1} = \frac{1}{x}$
Kappa Mikey
This works because we did it to both sides of the equals sign

can someone help me with this please? (quadratic inequalities)
so far i've factored denominator to (3x - 4)(x + 1) but i'm not really sure what to do next (such as with the numerator)
what can you say about the numerator? can it ever be negative?
nope, as the answer must be >= 0
what answer?
values of x
^
if the num and denom were both negative, the result would be positive
i'm asking if the num itself can ever be negative
yes
oh yeah didnt think about it that way
since i factored my denom. to a product of binomials can i make a chart/table of negatives, positives, zeros
yep
for diff values of x
the product of two factors is positive if both factors are positive or both are negative
that should be useful here
right
thank you i'm gonna work on the table, i'll ping you if i get stuck or something lol
sure, sounds good
@stiff musk is this okay? am i missing any values of x to show?
well, if either factor is zero then the denominator is zero so the fraction is undefined
huh
the fraction itself can't equal zero because the numerator is never zero
oh i just wrote 0 because
so the fraction is >= 0 if and only if the denominator is strictly positive
so i'd just focus on + and -
mm i get what you mean
wait so is the answer (in interval notation)
$x \in (-\infty, -1] \cup [\frac{4}{3}, \infty)$

Hello I got stuck on b and c, but I already solved a
For b, can u identify what line segment's length it's essentially asking for?
@tribal musk Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
so nothing for b...?
u said u already solved a
do u wanna do that first?
no im not sure where to start for b
yes i got 1581 yards
okay so at the point E
land is at P
the line segment there would be PE
or EP
same thing
oh ok
but notive that now we got a big right triangle
with an angle, hypotheneus, and the distance we want (EP or PE)
so draw that out and then lmk what u got from there
u should be able to just solve it as soon as u write it tbh
@ me when ur back, afk for a sec

can someone help me find the nth sequence of 11,20,35,56,83
116
What have you tried?
look at the differences @untold marlin
the thing is it keeps changing
yeah but how
=6
?
+6
the differences themselves form a sequence
and you get the nth term by adding the n-1th term in the difference sequence to the actual sequence
the difference sequence has a pretty straightforward structure if you write it down
wait so is it 9n+6
nah then it would be 6, 15, 24...
wait so how do i find the sequence
wait mb
you can also see it as 3.(2n+1) n>=1
each term of the sequence
9, 15, 21
then Tn = a + dn = 11 + 3(2n+1)
but thats not the sequence tho
the sequence is 11,20,35,,56,83
idk formatting but its 11 + summation(3(2n+1))
= 11 + 3n(n+1) + 3n
= 11 + 3n(n+2)
huh?
so basically to get the first term you add 11 and 0
to get the second you add 11 to the 1st difference
to get the third you add 11 to the 1st and 2nd differences

help how do I prove this
maybe call c = log_b(a)
write this as an exponent
and ig take log_a of both sides
Else, you do change of base rule.
Yes silver is on the right track
wait one sec
Consider
[
\log_{b}a = x \
\text{and using the definition of a log:} \
a = b^x
]
Try to proceed from here
Hint 2: Try to solve for $b$ in $\ds a = b^x$
Using exponents laws
am I correct or close now?
err
oh wait
yeah you are right in that [
a^{\f 1x} = b
]
try and give this a think and proceed from that, keep in mind what we are trying to prove too

how can i find the turning point of y=x cubed-6x squared+16
$y = x^{3} - 6x^{2} + 16$
chartbit
"turning point" can have several implications
do you mean inflection points?
by any chance?
not really
well hm
you can take the derivative and set that equal to 0
oh so =0
whats the devirative in this equation
@untold marlin Has your question been resolved?
Derivative is an operator
@untold marlin can u do limits ?
Factorize it into a quadratic and a linear?
Good question
I can't think of much right now, the easy way out is to find $\map {f'} x = 0$

So I was looking to calculate the limit of x * cos(a/x) as x -> 0+ (a is a negative number.)*
I figured it's probably 0 but I forgot how to calculate it, any help would be appreciated
Yeah but, I don't really know that
This is a question from an exam, I can't graph it on the fly
you do not know that cos is even...?
Pardon?
cos(t)=cos(-t) for all t
Oh, sure
Haven't thought about it I guess
the expression is a little longer so the fact that a is negative does hold some weight in uh...
It's technically
e^a/x + e + what I wrote
So a being negative and not positive holds grounds here
nevermind though, how do I calculate this limit?
intuitively, why do you think its 0?
In my head x dominates over cos in some way
Probably some notion I got from previous exercises*
because cos is bounded yeah?
I suppose, yeah
Well, not necessarily. But this probably helps
You helped with with uniformly continuous functions yesterday, we saw that even a bound function can have an "infinitely strong" derivative, so the fact that its bound doesn't necessarily imply dominance in my head, but rather its more probable that x is stronger
Pardon the inaccurate (blatantly wrong?) phrasing, this is my intuitive explanation
Naturally it doesn't make much sense ^^;
I think the actual proof for this would help me most though, and not the intuition behind it
hmm dont overthink it too much, we dont have to deal with derivatives or anything. We have a function that is bounded, and now we multiply it by x which goes to 0. It doesnt matter what exactly cos is doing, as long as we know its bounded the whole thing becomes 0
ok so for the proof
can you explicitely give some bounds for cos(a/x)?
Right, I'm just thinking what would've happened if I had to prove something of the sort in my exam, which emphasizes proper proofs
Yeah sure, 1 and -1
so
-1 ≤ cos(a/x) ≤ 1
Right
can you think of some theorem with limits and inequalities?
Uh... the little sandwich rule
good
so
-x ≤ x * cos(a/x) ≤ x
if x-> 0+:
lim(-x) = 0
lim(x) = 0
So sandwich and tada?
correct
Christ
You're a really good teacher you know that?
My exam is next week and you've been extremely helpful*

How can I multiply a vector by quaternion
I know all the rules
Knowing that the quaternarnion isn’t pure, so it’s scalar component is not equal to 0, the result should be a quaternion right?

how
I know as all absolute values must be >=0 so f(0) = 0 and idk how to continue
@naive spear Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
wonder how do I apply the left and right derivative
or do I even need to do that
i'm not sure at all
First it's continuous because when x goes to 0 x² goes to 0
Then using the definition of differentiable you look at if (f(x)-f(0)) /x has a limit at 0
If it does it's f'(0) so it exists so f is differentiable at 0
lim(f(0+))=limf(0-) so it's continuous at 0 i guess that's what you call left and right derivative?
yes
anyway look at the limit of (f(x)-f(0)) /x when x goes to 0 using what you know of the function which is not much
it you find the value that's f'(0)
This question is sus
well we have to use the only information they gave us on f(x)
Note that -x <= f(x)/x <= x
because of left and right limit?
wdym
No it's coming from the inequality |f(x)| <= x^2
I need some time to digest all of these information
this is just too hard
it's about showing f is continuous at 0 and show f'(0) exists using the definition of f'(0)
$$\abs{f(x)} \le x^2$$
$$-x^2 \le f(x) \le x^2$$
$$-x \le \frac{f(x)}{x} \le x$$
$$\lim_{x\to 0}(-x) \le \lim_{x\to 0}\frac{f(x)}{x} \le \lim_{x\to 0}x$$
$$f^{\prime}(0) = \lim_{x\to 0}\frac{f(x)}{x} = 0$$
sandwich rule?
A Lonely Bean
Yes
then how do we show that it is differentiable
wait if f'(0) exists that means its differentiable at 0
how did I forget that
then I'm done

Why are we not accounting for the fact that the value of [sinx] is 1 at x=pi/2 while integrating?
Assuming that you’re looking at someones solution
Its terrible working
Look at a different solution to the question
They make a simple question look very complicated
Could you share it?
My question has to do with the step prior to the integration.
There is no point
You integrate then focus on the limits
Its a greatest integer function?
I mean we wouldn't do that even if it was a modulus.
@rose epoch Has your question been resolved?
so the solution above is wrong?
@rose epoch Has your question been resolved?
@rose epoch Has your question been resolved?
I'm guessing that [] is the floor function here
That's right.
You aren't adding [sin(x))] while integrating, you're adding [sin(x)]dx, even if sin(x) value is 1 at some one point, it doesn't matter since it'd be left with mere dx.
While integrating, that's about what you neglect for the integral to work.
The previous answer is also wrong - it is -pi
Didn't they write -pi?
this guy didn't
Oh, I didn't read anything they wrote. They didn't know it was floor function.
Yeah that seems likely
@rose epoch
If you really want to convince yourself here just do the integral everywhere apart from an epsilon-interval around pi/2 and take it to zero
don't write it ofc just think about it

I mean, you got your answer. A = (9x^3 - 7y^2), B = (9x^3 - 7y^2). The only way they distinguished A and B was by saying that the coefficient of y in A was greater than or equal to the coefficient of y in B
What does "left with mere dx" imply? Integration of dx will still yield us x unlike the values from [0,pi/2) which would've yielded us a zero. I was asleep so I apologise for the late reply.. the channel has been closed now so I reckon I need to open a new one?

bro
Can you not?
surely there's a bot channel you can do it in
They're basically saying that although your answer is correct, what you've failed to mention in your solution was the integral [sinx] dx from 0 to pi/2 and pi/2 to pi since sinx attains a value of 1 in that situation. Ofc, you might already know why it's 0, but it is better to check and make sure the concepts are clear
"Ofc, you might already know why it's 0" That was my question.
Woops I missed that
Ok so, integration of dx is indeed = x, but consider this:
Let's say I have an integral from 1 to 1.1 of dx. That would be equal to x, which when calculated is 1.1 - 1
Now let's say it's 1 to 1.01. Then it integrates to x, which we then evaluate as 1.01 - 1.
So as Jeeves said, you can now take the limit as a -> 1 of integral 1 to a of dx and you'll find that = 0
In a similar fashion, sinx only attains the value 1 at pi/2 and nowhere else. So you're left with the integral pi/2 to pi/2 1 * dx, which is just 0

Cosine is an even function
is cos the x value of the angle tho
Sorry didn't understand you
Closed by @left cloud
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
visually yes
✅
if i have cos of 120 degrees
thats quadrant 2
and x is negative
so cos t = cos -t
-120 degrees is in the third quadrant
this would make x negative still
so im thinking this is how to understand it?
cos (positive angle) = -x
then cos (same angle but negative) = still -x
so makes even?
nvm sorry

It was meant to be a question for them, an exercise for them to do. Solution is about the right word. Although not minding English at this point. What is your doubt ed?
You do. But not all of them.
which one
There are three basic Pythagorean Identities
are these the three i need to memorize
Ideally the first one is the one you should remember.

are you sure
i got 635
,,\sqrt[2]{25}+25^2
did you get this?
yes
yeah it is
what is the square root of 25
5 sry
okay and what is 25^2
625
okay now add them
630
there u go
.
u just got 630
so u just did it right. if you want, send ur work for the wrong answer and I can point out the mistake
thanks

At this point I get stuck on what to do next.. nothing else can be done?
if I plug in 0 I will get undefined
Wait, what's the function you're dealing with?
You forgor the other 3
damn you're right
he forgor 💀
for the first function you mean? f(x+h)
it's not needed because no sign out front
second f(x) is needed with brackets
because - in front of that one
Should be either:
$$
\frac{\sqrt{9 + h} + 3 - (\sqrt{9} + 3)}{h}
$$
or
$$
\frac{\sqrt{9 + h} + 3 - \sqrt{9} - 3}{h}
$$

Cool, then that expands to the bottom one
This is what happens when you run too much and do math
As in the first principles way? They're just being mean a bit 
For learning
But really, it's just to give you a flavour of how to do these things, and e.g. the power rule comes from first principles to begin with
if it's not even used
If I want flavour I will go to the ice cream shop
Like a lot of the time you don't need to do things from first principles anyway because you prove a general result with them that saves you time
How I feel after every day with math
remind me again, is it pascal's triangle that provides the shortcut method?
i know it helps with binomial expansion. say (a+b)^3, according to pascal's triangle it's 1331 so I expand accordingly
but for derivatives I can't remember why the power becomes a constant and the exponent subtracts by 1
Erm, you can use the binomial expansion to prove that the derivative of $x^{n}$ is $n x^{n-1}$ for positive integer $n$

derivative rules come from first principles

👋 Hi! I'm having a hard time solving this:
x¹⁰ - x⁸ + 8x⁶ - 24x⁴ + 32x² - 48 = 0
I was trying to use ruffini's rule to factorize, but I can't find any zeros
Feel free to suggest any other method
Rational root theorem?
Closed by @rugged harbor

Sadly it doesn't have rational roots.
You could at least simplify it by substituting u instead of x^2
Cya
Bye
Graph
Yeah x^5 - x^4 + 8x^3 - 24x^2 + 32x - 48 does have a rational root
I don't think a human sees the factorisation immediately
,w divide x^10 - x^8 + 8x^6 - 24x^4 + 32x^2 - 48 by x - 2
,w divide x^10 - x^8 + 8x^6 - 24x^4 + 32x^2 - 48 by x^2 - 2
Ah mb

Hey
This is correct right?
You cant divide 1 by 0 though right ?
Im confused why its especially equal to infinite
But if it approaches it, why is the solution = infinite ?
What about this then, in this video it shows infinite for the part with 1/x
For x-> 0
1/x does not approach infinity as x goes to 0
1/x approaches infinity as x goes to 0+
Are you saying the video has a mistake basically?
yes
its sloppy
they should say 0+
but since there's an ln in the limit its kind of implied
they should still say 0+ though

i dont get how they got 4+a = 7 and 4+2a+b=6
i mean one thing i saw that was common which was b = b and c = c
but i was wondering if you could do that
You can
they just factorised the x terms and constants
so say
-collecting like terms
if it was like ax^2 + rest of the equation = 7x^2 +rest of the equation
to find the a
i make a= a?
so x = 7?
You could
oh.
Assuming that "the rest" of the equation has no other x^2 terms
it will work with any degree polynomial that are equal to eachother
doesnt matter if the degree is the same for each one

how to solve
i know derivative of a = v(t)
Integrate acceleration function to get velocity function , integrate velocity function to get distance function
prey
- acceleration is given as a=v+1, so we integrate both sides wrt time .
- it is given that the particle is at rest initially , so v = 0, t=0. Sub these values into the velocity equation found in 1)
- we know that s=0 when t = 0, so sub those values into the distance eqn , where u will find the distance function
- To find the distance travelled in the first 5 seconds, we need to evaluate this equation at t = 5. Since no value for the acceleration is given , we can't find a numerical answer, but you can give an expression instead

because mine feels incorrect
this is a proof and i do know i can square and get x-3 = 1
but
any ideas or solutions
would be welcome
@misty birch Has your question been resolved?
of course
2-3 = -1
4-3 = 1
so 4 is the only one that works
Isnt it every R except 4? Its a wild guess
but for the actual "why" part im lost
I mean 2 and 4 are the only real solutions to thr first equation and 2 isnt a solution to the second
yeah i got that too
4 makes it true
hence the rest are false?
Uft?
Logically yeah. Idk how vigorous it needs to be

Hello I would like to make sure I set this question up correctly.
@limber berry Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
do u have an image of the graph
I can tell you right now that your bounds are probably incorrect
you have your integral with respect to x
from 0 to 2
but the question wants from y=0 to y=2
so you can plug those into your formula for x to change your bounds to the proper numbers
so bounds are sqrt(9) and sqrt(5) @quaint prawn
No graphs are allowed to be used in assignment lecture
I am confused because it is dx but my notes say over y-axis should be dx
if you are supposed to use this method yes
so this would work if there is both y and dx ?
I think I should find y as a fucntion of x
then take the sqrt(1+f'(x)^2) that way?

For questions like this, is this really all I need to do?
I can see I don't need to do direct substitution
And factoring either of them won't do anything.
From what I recall and what I've gathered from Paul's notes online, this looks like what I'm supposed to do
Mainly just think about the behavior.
No plug in 7.9 then 7.99 then 7.999 on a calculor. Make a table
unless you know the more advanced rules Thats all you do.
@barren iris Has your question been resolved?
I recall my professor doing that earlier.
He called it the table method
Problem though, we aren't allowed a calculator.
Is there anything else I can do?
plug in 6 and 7
what number it SEEM to approach?
Since the numerator is positive and the denominator
x
2
−
64
approaches zero and is less than zero for
x
near
8
to the left, the function decreases without bound.
−
∞
so yeah you are right
but you have to show that as x approches 8 the value gets closer to -0
and 1/small neg number is -inf

what is the question?
"i want somebody to solve this for me and not have to do shit myself"
I have to resolve the factorized equation, I've done most of the other ones but this one I have no idea how to do it 🤷♂️
bit rude just asking for some help
you just put a picture and nothing more
apologies
what exactly do you mean with resolve
dw
force of habit, given that a lot of people just post questions here with no further commentary.
so you know the zero product property, yes?
I need to find the value of x
no
but you have solved equations by factorization before.
either you actually do know the zero product property or you are going through the motions with no understanding
I would just factor out the common term for most
a * b = 0 if and only if (a = 0 or b = 0)
you know this, yes?
yeah
thats the zero product property.
here you simply have more factors
$4x^2 (x+1)^2 (x-2) = 0 \iff [4x^2 = 0 \text{ or } (x+1)^2 = 0 \text{ or } x-2 = 0]$
Ann
And after that what we suppose to do ?
so either 4x^2 is =0 or (x+1)^2*(X-2) is 0, right?
well if you want to adhere strictly to the 2-factor version then sure.
well, you insisted on saying "either 4x^2 is 0 or (x+1)^2 (x-2) is 0" instead of breaking it down all the way immediately.
break it down by multiplying 4x2 by the parenthesis?
no...
oooh the ^2?
OOOOH
okay so uh
I am not the brightest
but I got a quadratic equation for the first one and x=2 for the second one
