Don't know how to do it
a and b are the roots of the function
And, in this case, the function is supposed to change its sign around x = a, right?
Yes
But, the thing is, the same would happen around x = b
Unless the term (b - x) was squared
So, around x = b the function doesn't change its sign
Yes so it's not the last ok
And, given that x = b is located to the right of x = a (since a < b), we are left with the options A and D
The last thing that we need to account for is the leading coefficient of the polynomial
Is it positive or negative in this case?
The thing that they share in common with our requirements is that the function doesn't change its sign around the second root
Ok yes
A general tip on determining whether the leading coefficient is positive or negative given a graph would be to look at what happens on the far right part of its graph
If it tends to go upper and upper, then it's positive
And if it tends to go lower and lower, then it's negative
In this case, since the leading coefficient of (a - x)(b - x)^2 is negative (specifically, -1), we have to go with the option A

What's the arithmetic meaning of the numbers: ${0},{1},{0},{1},{1},{1},{0},{0},{0},{6}$ ?
Bunnings
what was the point of enclosing each one in its own set of braces 
idk. i though thats how bot worked lol
also are you sure you meant "arithmetic meaning" as opposed to "arithmetic mean"?
I dont remember the question properly. it was on a test
okay... "arithmetic meaning" is not a phrase typically used in math
so
do you know in general how to find the arithmetic mean of a set of numbers
Is that a fancy way of saying find average of these numbers ?
yes, "average" is the everyday word for mean
And that's how i lose numbers on my tests. Those fancy words annoy me.
one more thing
The locus of points with the same distance from two given distinct point is ? $//$
Whats locus of points ?
Bunnings
the set of all points such that ___
where the blank is whatever goes after the word "locus"
in your case, the question could be rephrased in a less shitty way as:
"Fix two distinct points A and B. What is the set of all points which are the same distance from A as they are from B?"

the answer to this is C because n^n grows much faster then n! right?
you can split it into 2^n/n^n and n!/n^n which is 0 for both which is easy to prove

my son is x years old. in 5 years time, i will be twice his age and both our ages will be multiples of 10. the sum of our ages will be between 55 and 100. how old am i now?
2(x+5) right?
Technically true but probably not super helpful
yea, im stuck now
So the ages in 5 years will be, let's use new letters, u and v where:
u = 2v (or v = 2u, whichever you want)
u and v are both multiples of 10
55 <= u + v <= 100
The 2nd condition especially should make it very easy to check combinations of u and v
oh ok

I was plugging in my last line but forgot to include the - in -9/128 + 1/4
Yet I got the correct answer
I’m not sure how as the - needs to be Included

Swapping the bounds for this integral:
$\int_{0}^{3} \int_{x^2}^{9} x^3 e^{y^{3}} dy dx$
$$0 \leq x \leq 3$$
$$x^2 \leq y \leq 9$$
Re-writing gives:
$$0 \leq x \leq 3$$
$$x \leq \sqrt{y} \leq 9$$
Why is implied that you use $\sqrt{y}$ and not $-\sqrt{y}$
yes

Can someone help me with this exponential equation. I tried to transform things out and use substitution, but I ended up with a incorrect answer
@proven pine Has your question been resolved?
if you expand the bracket and so some separations using exponent laws you can create a quadratic of the form $a\cdot 2^{2x}+b\cdot 2^x+c=0$ Ill leave a,b and c for you to determine, however you can then apply the quadratic formula to get values for $2^x$ and then x itself
AℤØ
@proven pine Has your question been resolved?
Yeah dude, that is what I did, but the result is not what you expect
$\sqrt{9-4\sqrt{2}}=2\sqrt{2}-1$
AℤØ
Oh, yeah, mb, I thought it was supposed to give a different result, so I assumed I did something wrong

Does anyone know a good software or online calculator to solve a system of nonlinear simultaneous equations
https://atozmath.com/CONM/NewtonRaphson2.aspx
Maybe this, but its littered with ads…
You could also just program the newton algorithm yourself, shouldnt take too long
Modified Newton Raphson method - Find root of x^2+y^2-5=0,x^3+y^3-2=0 with Initial guesses = 2,-1 using Modified Newton Raphson method (Multivariate Newton Raphson method), step-by-step online
Or probably even wolframalpha
Shouldve been my first thought
@shadow fractal Has your question been resolved?
Yea that was my initial guess but I've been getting absolutely nowhere with it its weird
It's for deriving a 3 point gaussian quadrature rule but the equations are an absolute nightmare to solve
I can check real quick in matlab
If you don't mind? My programming skills are very limited hahaha
Is that supposed to be (x_2)^3 in line 4?
Yes my bad
No idea 😦 Im guessing I must be missing a trick
Kinda not getting anything
Same here, I may call it a day and sleep on it and give it a go again tomorrow
Thank you so much for your help
np but now i kinda want to get the value, for 0,0,0,0,0 its pretty close
But it could just be that the function is somehow bounded in a way that there is no solution
That seems to be the result I've been getting using wolfram alpha and the online link you suggested with the modified Newton method
Well that sucks
Huh. I played around with the initial guess and now my program is stuck in the while loop
Aaaand nan again
Uh i got something
(1.6826,-1.1111,1.8285,0.6761,-0.4034)
For (w0,w1,w2,x0,x2)
With tolerance of 0.001
Seems as though this function has extremely bad behavior.. kinda lucky
Exact for about 9 digits
There are probably more solutions but this function is so janky
Yea had a bit of luck
But there should be more solutions right?
Or is this a problem with a unique solution?
I'm actually not quite sure to be honest
I've been asked for just one there wasn't really an inplication that it was a unique one
Oh i see
I kinda recognize the identity used
Yea should be unique
Perfect we're in business then!
But arent the weights just calculated by the zeroes of the legendre polynomial?
I believe so yea
Well I don't know what to say thank you so much for your help you're a life saver!
np :)

I am so genuinely confused by what chatgpt is trying to show me here can anyone help clarify?
I don't understand the reason why you would zero index this equation.
a(i, j) = (i - 1) * N + j
^ here
a(i, j) = (i - 1) * N + j
This operation calculates the difference between the current row number (i) and the first row. Since we are using 1-indexed row numbers, we subtract 1 from i to make it zero-based. This step helps us determine how many rows come before the current row.
Isn't the current row already attributed for by the current row number? Why do I need to zero index it?

I have this problem
"Ilan and Justin are competing in a math competition. They work independently and each has the same two problems to solve. The two problems take an exponentially distributed amount of time with mean 20 and 30 minutes respectively (or rates 3 and 2 if written in terms of hours). (a) What is the probability Ilan finishes both problems before Justin has completed the first one. (b) What is the expected time until both are done?
i'm not sure how to go about part (b) I'm thinking along the lines of the total time to solve the problem + probabiility Ilan finishes first * time it takes Justin to finish + probability Justin finishes first * time it takes Ilan to finish
Try to figure out the expected value of the maximum of the completion times of each one
So ILan's time is
$I = I_1 + I_2$
And Justin's
$J = J_1 + J_2$
Let $T = \max{(I,J)}$
Max Hetfield
Find $\mathbf E[T]$
Max Hetfield
So just finding the expectation of the maximuim between two hypoexponential variables?
That sounds very nasty...
Yes
It's not that bad
I mean
To find the CDF of T
We can probably utilize CDfs maybe?
$P(\max(I, J) <t) = P(I \and J < t) $
$P(max(I,J) \leq t) = P(I \leq t) P(J \leq t)$>
And as they are independent
heheitsop
Yeah
and then just differentiating that and then applying definition of expectation

!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
2
ik that
you can get the semi circle
which is 31.4
but then
idk
@onyx glen
??
its ez right
wdym
its easy af
first u get the area of semicircles and then the rectangle
yeah but
???
what 31.4??
breh area of a semicircle 1/2pi r^2
oh
so r=5cm
ye
22/7*5^2
120 + pi * 5 * 5
Wdym
120 is area of rectangle
how did u get that
you don't have to do that
then i did 2.5 x pi
u have the answer to this??
because you know the diameter of the smecircles combined is 10
huh
radius is 5 so 22-5+5
therefore the length of the rectangle should 22 -10
so the
semi circles
are
31.4
?
no
combined
where u getting 22/7
pi(5)^2 is the area of the semicircles combined
...
which is 25pi
oh i forgot to square
fine if u do pi as 3.14*5^2
so pi x 25
yeah
78.5
yeah
yes
then simply add the area of the rectangle
which is 12 * 10
10*12
bro i hab a doubt can u solve??
10*12?
10 times 12
10 is the breadth as given in diagram
we got 12 by subtracting 22 from the sum of both semicircle radius
so area=l*b
yeah
im lost
bro once solve my question in dm plsss
seriously
k
Rationalise the LHS's denominator by multiplying the numerator and denominator it by its conjugate. I would rather you do this in a new channel though, since James still seems to be confusewd.
okok
That's what I'm saying!
so
...
we know that the radius of the semicircles is 5
yes
so we found their areas
yes
approx 78.5
yes
now we need to find the area of the rectangle
2 semicircles on the side of a rectangle
so you can calcualte it as a circle and a rectangle
diameter 10
if we remove the semicircles from the rectangle, you would have to subtract 22 -10
wdym how far
yep yep
because each semiricle occupies 5 cm of the total length
but there are semicricles on the sides
yeah
lol
cant u go to another channel
no
idk how to
he told u
:/
?
u understood?
nah
that picture is what you need to do
brehhhh
yh
do you agree the dotted grey lines are the radius as well?
because we know that the diameter is 10
oh
for both semicircles
so they are 5
yeah
correct
thats rectangle correct
+78.5?
now add those semicircles back
yep
78.5?
ok thanks
pi * 5^2
which is 25pi
bruh sorry for making this long
nono
but thanks
it's fine
phew
lmaoo
oh wow
k u got any answe?
so if you multiply the fraction by the conjugate, you get (14-6sqrt5)/-11
9/11 and 19/11
if I am not wrong
ok
im literally 8th
india...
can u send the pic of the problem again
ok wait a sec
k
uhh
doubt?
no no
oh alright
damn
I am thinking
;-;

Why 0+0i is both purely imaginary and purely real?
Cuz real and imaginary parts are both 0
Recall:
Purely real <-> Imaginary part is zero
Purely imaginary <-> Real part is zero
That makes 0 + 0i identify as both
HMMM
0 is a very sus no
It is neither negative or positive
It is both purely imaginary and purely real
If it is purely imaginary it shouldnt exist in the real world
If its purely real it should exist
AAAAAAAA
Can you tell me what it means for a number to "exist in the real world"
The implication is false as you can see
Numbers belonging to R
There is a purely imaginary number in the set R
Uh
mb when you said "exist in the real world" i thought you were getting philosphical, not meaning literally \in \bR LOL
Numbers are all made up concepts
As far as i know its like wait 1 min
What?
Right

Yes
Where did you learn this?
Whole number 
Which involved this
Yes
Whole number
Isn't a whole number the same as an integer?
Natural + 0 in some textbooks, otherwise just natural numbers
Yes, natural numbers have 0
But all complex numbers ≠ real numbers right
Ofc
*correction
Negative is not in whole
This is how a proper subset works indeed
You are confusing it with "0 is not negative nor positive"
Wdym?
Should it be in complex world or real world?
Or is it that boundary i made
Between complex and real
It's everywhere except naturals 
Between "imaginary and real"
Not complex and real
Oh yessss imaginary
Complex does contain real
0 is natural
That is controversial
Why are reals inside imaginary
The previous one was correct
It is impossible to illustrate with Venn diagram

Except you could instead illustrate {0} and {ai, a in R*}
And say that the union of those two is the set of imaginaries
I guess you can draw a rectangle then divide it into 2, one in real and one is imaginary
And then put all the set you have into real numbers
Sure, except 0 isn't in the "imaginary" here
It is usually denoted with C
Small z as my book uses it too
Told you, the only thing you can do is make the set look disjoint on the diagram
But if i do then i dont include 0 in imaginary
I suggest doing this
Oh hmmm
R* means all reals except 0 iirc
But in short
0 is omnipresent
Except in natural numbers
Also why dont we compare imaginary nos with each other hmmm?
Is it just a rule?
Or is there a significance behind it?
We would need to know whether i is positive or negative
Let's assume i > 0 and see if any contradictions appear
i > 0
Multiply both sides by i
i^2 > 0 (the inequality sign does not change as i is positive)
-1 > 0 ?
Okay, let's now try i < 0
Multiply both sides by i
You still get i^2 > 0 (the inequality sign changes because i is negative)
So -1 > 0 again

You can't compare i with 0 -> You can't compare complex numbers in general
I kinda get it
As it doesnt matter how many imaginary friends you have
At the end
I will be alone
😃
Re(imaginary) = 0 indeed
But can imaginary be compared with non imaginary?
Still no

In my introductory group theory class the assignment asks: "Draw a figure in the plane that has exactly 7 symmetries." is it not just a heptagon? I'm just confused about what it means "in the plane". Thanks in advance
in the plane means it should be a flat figure and not something three-dimensional or higher
ahah Thanks

D_7 has 14 elements tho?

✅
7 unique symmetries
symmetries should include rotations in this context, right?
if you go with a plain heptagon then it also has reflection symmetries in addition to rotations
there is a way to remedy that, namely by adorning the heptagon with some modification that breaks reflection symmetry but keeps the rotational kind
I think you're correct
Yep makes sense
Thanks again Toby and Ann!

For statistics, I think I'm failing to understand the question
Its 4 marks, but if the p-value is 0.035 and the significance level is 2.5%, surely 0.035 > 0.025 and that's all you need to do

I just don't know what to do for this one
,rotate cco
use PoP
The instructions say you cant
oh
yeah im kinda confused at what to do lol
Here: whats the radius of the circle?
Then draw the radius to D
Then draw a segment from the circles center to C
You have two right triangles
but isn’t that quadratic formula
I don't know what the radius is : /
that’s what I thought but you’ll have an x^2 term
Draw a radius to B
Ohhhh yeah sorry missed that
What is pop?
power of a point
,w power of a point
I got root 13
Angle D is definitely a right angle when you draw in the radius, correct?
Yes
Ok now use triangle COX to find CX
Yeah then add AX to get AC

So im trying to solve a hill cipher demo for extra credit for this class...
I know that the solution is a message that is converted to numbers using just the trivial pattern A = 1, B = 2, etc...
I know that the encryption key is a 3x3 matrix that starts with the word "CONFIDENTIAL"
hill?
So I have that A = [[C,O,N],[F,I,D],[E,N,T]] (where each letter is a variable with it's encrypted result), and that B = [[6,9,4],[5,14,20],[9,1,12]]
C = 195
O = 153
N = 48
F = 99
I = 78
D = 24
E = 228
N = 191
T = 70
I = 97
A = 103
L = 54
Am = Matrix([[F, I, D],[E, N, T],[I,A,L]])
Bm = Matrix([[6,9,4],[5,14,20],[9,1,12]])
The cipher result is given, so that's why I know what CONFIDENTIAL is after encryption
idk it's just called "Hill Cipher Demo"
In classical cryptography, the Hill cipher is a polygraphic substitution cipher based on linear algebra. Invented by Lester S. Hill in 1929, it was the first polygraphic cipher in which it was practical (though barely) to operate on more than three symbols at once.
The following discussion assumes an elementary knowledge of matrices.
yeah...?
I don't get it
what is the problem?
Yeah. So this is what I thought initially
that AB = X, so B = A^-1 * X
what do I need to add?
nothing
This unfortunately doesn't seem to work
i mean
if you have a 3x3 * 3x1, you will get a 3x1 vector
so encrypt every 3 letters in a column vector
if you want to multiply the vector before, you would need 1x3 * 3x3 = 1x3
you understand what I mean?
how to find inverse matrix?
I'm not sure how legible that is
do you know how to find multiplicative inverse of modular
say you have 2x = 1 (mod 3), can you solve this?
In mathematics, particularly in the area of arithmetic, a modular multiplicative inverse of an integer a is an integer x such that the product ax is congruent to 1 with respect to the modulus m. In the standard notation of modular arithmetic this congruence is written as
a
x
≡
1
...
this might help
well I can solve it, but not through some formula or process
ah in matlab here is the code
So where do I apply this?
,w 2281^-1 (mod 26)
I have 676/2281 ... so I turn that into 676 / (2281^-1) % 26?
yeah
or at least it seems so
here is a sample code i found online
what happened to the numerator here?

why is -8/6 = 4/3 but -6/10 is -3/5
why does it not keep its negative value
ik thats a elementary question but im just shit at fractions lmfao
yeah thats what i thought
but i got the question wrong somehow lol
i thought when its - -8/6 it would by kept
if you're negating something twice then the negatives cancel out
...ok wait now i've lost track of what the question was and what you answered

Can someone help me on this problem
Please help.
how did you get sin(theta)cos(theta)
$\tan = \frac{\sin}{\cos}$
doctor99268
doctor99268
Would it be?
you havent even done the integration
and no
i literally said it wouldnt be that
how did you get sin(theta)cos(theta)
since when does tan^2(theta) = sin(theta)cos(theta)
Im sorry, would it be
yh
now
to integrate it
you can see that
you can use integration by inspection
because you can see that cos(theta) is the differential of sin(theta)
so this is reverse chain rule
I have never heard of this? Is it known by another term
if you want
you can also use subsitution for this
u = sin(theta)

shouldnt the answer be pi/2?
The limits of integration and answer are wrong, but it's not pi/2 either
@outer dust Has your question been resolved?
no? but is the antiderivatives still arctan(u)?
The antiderivative of 1/(1+u^2) is arctan(u), yes. Plus a constant but that doesn't matter here.
The confusion that made me do a double take is that because the limits of integration are wrong, you wouldn't split this up into two integrals when done correctly, which is probably where you are getting pi/2 but I don't know what you did

this is my answer at the bottom (correct.)
but how is this answer also correct (1-ln(x^11))/x^12 ?
$log_a{(b^c)} = c\cdot log_a{b}$
kheerii
so $11 \ln(x) = \ln{(x^{11})}$
kheerii
Yes
yes
so i guess it still applies
but usually in calculus you only ever deal with the natural log
Yep
hence you will see in many places just the notation log(x) with no base as a replacement for ln(x)
since log(x) makes more sense regarding complex numbers
Isn't it?
well
Yep
depends on the context
Well true
but usually it just means ln
its so weird before joining this discord i never saw people refer to log_10 as log
but apparently its taught a lot
I don't see the significance of log_10
In some cases
maybe its just a country thing
unless you're doing some math regarding number of digits
cause was always ln for me
Yes
On that case also it's self understood
logx=10
x= 10^10
But it changes then like
Logx_2 = 10
Where
x=100
So it depends on context

@old edge how do add 3?
You can turn this into
m = (101+9-3a)/(3-a) = 101/(3-a) + 3
they were helping me previously
they added 3 to the equation
not sure if that works
It's just simplifying the fraction
it was (110-3a)/(3-a)
where did the +9 come from
and 110 = 101 + 9
so I said:
(110-3a)/(3-a) = (101 + 9 - 3a)/(3 - a)
= 101/(3-a) + (9-3a)/(3-a)
= 101/(3-a) + 3

are all 3 of these expressions equal?
1 and 3 are, 2 is ambiguously parenthesised
Im not sure about the second one, it could be interpreted as (ln(1+2x))^(x^2)
I assume (1+2x)^x^2 = (1+2x)^(x^2)
what do you mean? x^2 could be confused for an exponent of ln rather than the argument?
ah
it's not clear if it's $\ln((1+2x)^{x^2})$ or $(\ln(1+2x))^{x^2}$
bee
so I can only bring an exponent to the front of the log if that exponent is **inside ** of the argument?
therefor only 1 and 3 are equal
and 2 is not equal
1 and 3 are equal
interesting..
for 2 it's ambiguous what it means
ya, that makes sense. the argument i like a jail cell
you would need to decide which of the two possibilities it is before it's equal or not equal to anything
what is this term, "ambiguous", in math?
unclear, open to interpretation
i just mean "ambiguous" in the normal way
"unclear"
there are multiple possible ways you could interpret it
more than 1 ways to interpret it
it's not clear though?
Check this
i thought all math was clear haha, with how we write it
even this silly exercise is clear, with order of operations
well when maths is done properly it's entirely clear
but it is possible to write things in standard notation that parse ambiguously, you just shouldn't
it really isn't
how should it be written instead?
with sufficient parentheses as needed
