I mean I dont get why it is divided by 2
So the focus and the directrix are one way to define a parabola, right? The parabola is the set of all points that are equidistant from the focus and the directrix
The vertex is immediately between the focus and the directrix. The closest point to both of them
For 2 and 3 yeah
If you're wondering how I got 3 for the vertex, it's because that's the average of 0 and 6
The vertex is also the average of the roots of a parabola
So if the roots were x = 2 and x = 8, then the vertex would x = 5
About number 2 and 3 how do i get its standard form?
The standard form of the parabola is: (x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k)
However, because your parabola is in y rather than x your standard form is:
(y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h),
instead.
That looks good to me, they didn't ask for a graph though, so you can leave it off
@strange scarab
They asked a graph too actually
Ah, well in that case you can set y = 0
And solve for x
To get the roots
Sqrt(1/16) = 1/4, so your roots are at -3-1/4 = -13/4 and -3+1/4 = -11/4
So you have three points to draw a parabola through.
huh?
Roots are when y = 0.
y+1 = 16(x+3)^2
0+1 = 16(x+3)^2
1 = 16(x+3)^2
1/16 = (x+3)^2
±√(1/16) = x+3
-3±(1/4) = x
@strange scarab
Ok, 3 is similar to 2 and 5 is similar to 4.
Give them a try and ping me if you have a specific question.
so it means that h is 3.5 and p is .5

What did I do wrong here? I’m doing quiz corrections and I think 1a) is wrong bc I didn’t state the relative extrema and I wasn’t supposed to include y values, is that right? And 1b) is wrong bc I didn’t state all points of inflection?

putridplanet
the answer sheet says x + not x -
How would i do this
Do i use distance formula
i know how to do it from point to point but not point to line
You'd do E to G i think, if G is the midpoint of FGH
You could use pythagorean or distance

soo this is the right answer but
i get A = -8/3 and B = 2
how am i mixing them up?
what A,B represent depends on how you set up your initial decomposition
what are the steps before this?
dont rlly do much besides change
A/3x + B/4x + 5 into
A(3x) + B(4x + 5)
you messed up the that step then
but how
from
$$\frac{10}{3x(4x+5)}= \frac{A}{3x} + \frac{B}{4x+5}$$
multiply both sides by $3x(4x+5)$
ℝam()n()v
i dont rlly understand the steps u take from this point tho
i genuinely cannot decipher the mess my school feeds me
do the multiplaction I mentioned
yes

so uhhh, where does the 6 come from
probably comes from solving the partial fraction decomposition
you could just go from the opposite sens, meaning from the simplification then develop

How would I approach this problem? I'm not exactly sure where to start.
To write an equation for a plane in 3 dimensions, you need two pieces of information:
- A point on the plane
- A Normal vector of the plane
In this case youre given the point but you need to deduce the Normal vector
ah and that'd be the cross product right
Ok thanks I think I got it from here 😄
Give any two vectors in the plane/parallel to the plane and their cross product will serve as a normal vector
Yw goodluck

if $A^3 = I + A$, then $A, I + A$ and $A − I$are nonsingular (invertible).
i'm lost
i don't know how to prove that a matrix is invertible or not
i only know how to use the determinant method
but these matrices we have here are arbitrary
nd
@late grail Has your question been resolved?
to show matrix A is invertible, you want to get it in a form like $A \cdot C$ = $I$
AlphaNull
so I'd suggest putting your I on the right and trying to factor the remaining stuff on the left into something nice

Im having trouble understanding letter D.
I've been able to do everything else but i just can't figure out the last one.
I do understand that f(x)>0 would be above the x-axis and whenever y = 0 but nothing seems to work.
We know by definition that $f(x) \geq 0$ {\bf if and only if} $f(x) \not< 0$
@deft flower
We also know by Part A that $f(x) < 0$ {\bf if and only if} $x$ is in the range $(-\infty, -2) \cup (2, \infty)$
@deft flower
Yes, that's right
We can take what's called the `contrapositive' of this statement, and determine that
\begin{center}
$f(x) \not< 0$ {\bf if and only if} $x$ is {\bf NOT} in the range $(-\infty, -2) \cup (2, \infty)$
\end{center}
@deft flower
\def\iff{\ \text{\bf if and only if}\ }
Altogether, this gives us
\begin{align*}
f(x) \geq 0 &\iff f(x) \not< 0 \
&\iff x \text{ is {\bf NOT} in the range }(-\infty, -2) \cup (2, \infty)
\end{align*}
@deft flower
So now we only need to find the range of values of $x$ where $x$ isn't in $(-\infty, -2) \cup (2, \infty)$
@deft flower
Do you think you'd be able to describe that as an interval/union of intervals?
I think so let me take a look at the graph again
Well it's hard to understand, but x isn't in (-oo, -2)U(2,oo) at (-2, 0), (-1, 0), and (2,0)
Am i correct?
What?
I would assume at the maximum value but it's hard to determine that because the graph doesn't tell me
From (-1,0) the graph does not show where it curves. Only that it goes up and lands down on 2. It can't be infinity cause it clearly indicates it curves and goes down to -oo.
If we convert $(-\infty, -2)$ to natural language, we might say $x$ is less than $2$'', and for $(2, \infty)$ that $x$ is greater than $2$'', so we need an interval that captures all the points where
\begin{center}
$x$ is not less than $-2$ and $x$ is not greater than $2$
\end{center}
@deft flower
Ohh okay so just between -2 and 2
yep; and should that be inclusive or exclusive?
I don't entirely remember. Is it exclusive?
I know that < > are paranthesis and that with "_" is brackets. However i forget which means inclusive and which is exclusive
Ah yeah
Inclusive means we include the bound, so $[-2, 2]$ (or $-2 \leq x \leq 2$) and exclusive excludes the bound, so $(-2, 2)$ (or $-2 < x < 2$)
@deft flower
Ohh so it would be inclusive
Yep, exactly
Ookay so inclusive and between -2 and 2. I was thinking [-2, -1]U[-1, 2]
Am i correct?
Yes, but we can simplify here
Simplify? I didn't know interval notation could be simplified!
There has to be specific conditions for it to work
And what would those be?
I don't think I've ever simplified interval notation so I'm entirely new to this
Oh wait!! Would it instead be [-2, 2]?
Yep, exactly!
That's good
Yeah of course!

why am i getting negative percentages
should i use the absolute value?

yo
Have you thought of anything?
By the way, regarding C), primes of the form 2^n - 1 are called Mersenne primes.
So... just find counter examples right?
ya
ok
ya
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
!show
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
welp
one sec
A) counter example = if x or y if one of them is negative
nah im just confused
you need to find 2 numbers such that x^2 = y^2 but x != y
2^2 = -2^2
4 != -4
2^2 = (-2)^2 but 2 != -2
ye so i am right
wdymn ()
it just said y^2
so it can be -2^2
?
how can it be "The right script, the wrong line. "???
in your bio
why not?
dont make sense
It does mak sense.
no
jan Nejon
A script consists of many lines, and a poem consists of multiple rhymes...
How does it not make sense to choose the wrong one?
if its the right script it will have right lines
and the poem will have right ryhmes if its the right poem
Suppose a script,
You : Hi
Other guy: Hello
If you read Hello, is it the right line?
nvm just later.
you say x = 2, y = -2 is a counterexample
ye but if you said -2 as y
this means to y^2
and that is (-2)^2
so x = 4 and y = 4
so its same value
oh maybe ik what u mean
yes but x != y
x^2 and y^2 has to be same number
the statement says if x^2 = y^2, x = y
even if its same value after calculate
but we found x^2 = y^2 such that x != y
it means x and y have to be same value before calculate?
2^2 and 2^2
2^2 and -2^2
the statement says that if x^2 = y^2 then x must be equal to y
but that's not true
but its only true after calculate
so x^2 = y^2 isnt equal
you mean that?
x = 2^2, y = (-2^2)
now they are not the same
but x = 4, y = 4
now same
To disprove an implication "If p, then q", it is enough to show an instance where p is true but q is false, e.g., "If x is a real number, then x^2 > 0" is false because I can show you a real number x such that x^2 is not positive (namely, x = 0)
Similarly here we can provide values for x and y such that x^2 = y^2 but x =/= y
Like Neon said, letting x = 2 and y = -2 disproves the statement
Since x^2 = 2^2 = 4 = (-2)^2 = y^2 (meaning x^2 = y^2 is true) but x = 2 =/= -2 = y (meaning x = y is false)
which real number?
Yeah, showing that such scenario can occur is sufficient
A) x and y not true but x^2 and y ^ 2 is true
B) n can be negative (-3)
C) ? idk
C) N can be negative??
They have not stated where x, y and n are from, but I suppose they are real numbers
wait
n is maybe only natrual numbers
Again, a counterexample would when the premise holds but the conclusion does not, meaning you need to pick a value of n such that n^2 > 9 is true but n > 3 is false
but if its impposisble then n is not only natrual numbers
-3 does not count as a counterexample as you need n^2 > 9 to be true
(-3)
oh higher than 9
Right, but we can't tell whether they meant n to be natural or not
Yes
its possible solve with natrual numbers?
If n is natural, then the implication "n^2 > 9 -> n > 3" is true, yes, but we aren't told whether n is natural or not
is it possible to make it untrue?
nah its not
It is untrue if we are allowed to pick numbers less than -3
Right
Or simply integers
Z
Yes
What is it?
I did right?
how?
i didint forgot
i put it into 8
4^2 is not 8
And 10^-4 is not a square of itself
Yes
and to calculate now
Right
If necessary, yeah, but simplify first
It looks like powers of 10 are going to cancel out
divided by 3200000000000
ok
ok
1,2^8x16
divided by 3,2x^10^11?
????
Should be (1.2 * 16)/(3.2 * 10^3) since the 10^8 in the numerator cancels out with the 10^8 in the denominator

Can anyone explain how to do this?
I know@its f(b) - f(a)
—————-
B-A
But there’s only one x value in the problem
What would I put for x?
1 because the -3 there already or what
Idk if the -3 is from the interval they gave or just coincidence
That's the slope, pretty sure it's unnecessary to mention that
coincidence
I see infinitely many values of x in [-3, 1]
Anyway, you can basically obtain a double inequality describing the range of f given its formula and that x is in [-3, 1]
First of all, what does it mean for some x to be in [-3, 1]?
Wdym
What do I mean by what exactly?
First of all, what does it mean for some x to be in [-3, 1]?
Do you know what the interval [-3, 1] is?
Not only them
[a, b] denotes the set containing every real number x such that a <= x <= b
So in this case we are talking about x with -3 <= x <= 1
Alright, so, given that, ? <= x - 3 <= ?
1 <= x - 3 <= -3?
No, that double inequality is never true either
1 <= -3 is false
-3 <= x <= 1 implies that -3 - 3 <= x - 3 <= 1 - 3
So -6 <= x - 3 <= -2
Meaning -6 <= f(x) <= -2
Yeah idk bro this lost me
Way my teacher tryna teach it is with fractions
This precalculus video tutorial explains how to calculate the average rate of change of a function over an interval. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

Su...
He linked this video
But there’s 2 x values but on mine only 1 x input
I mean like 1 x to put the numbers in
Ugh, sorry, I misread your problem
I thought it asked for the range
The average rate of change will be simply (f(b) - f(a))/(b - a), yes
You have -3 and 1 as endpoints though
Calculating this quotient is unnecessary btw since the function is of the form f(x) = mx + b
For linear f it will always be the slope m
So the average rate of change is 1 here
If you were to go ahead and use the formula anyway, you would end up with 1 too as follows
f(-3) = -3 - 3 = -6
f(1) = 1 - 3 = -2
So (f(1) - f(-3))/(1 - (-3)) = (-2 - (-6))/(1 + 3) = (6 - 2)/4 = 4/4 = 1
You got 2 by adding the endpoints, you are supposed to subtrack
And in the numerator you should have -2 - (-6)
Uh wait
Again, no, you are adding 1 and -3
You are supposed to subtrack them
So -3 - 1
And it will be -4 in the denominator
But it’s b - a no?
Ah right ok
Wait but again 1 should be the first number
Cuz that’s b
Ion think you make it negative
You can pick the order as you wish
Letting a = 1 and b = -3 is as valid as letting a = -3 and b = 1

is is possible to write (x+2)/x in the form 1 + 2/x??
Yeah
im confused how it gets into that form
(x+2)/x = x/x + 2/x = 1 + 2/x

Hello. There’s this theorem: A sequence of functions converges uniformly if and only if $\lim_{n\to \infty} sup_{x\in I} \lvert f_n(x)-f(x) \rvert=0$
bla
However, I don’t understand what this supremum means
You should just read the definition but it's basically analogous to a maximum
The big difference is that an open set like (0,1) has a supremum but no maximum
Yea I see
But I don’t get what the supremum has to do with that difference in this case
Also what does that x element in I mean under the supremum
<@&286206848099549185>
@torn jolt Has your question been resolved?
The supremum acts on a set, the set is the image of f_n - f as you apply each element x in the set I
But then our set would only contain of zeros because $\lvert f_n(x)-f(x)\rvert = 0$ as $n \rightarrow \infty$
bla
No, for each fixed n, you have a set by looking at the image over I of |f_n -f|. That is the set you are taking the supremum over. This then gives you a sequence of supremums indexed by n which you are taking the limit of.
Ohhh so it does mean as n increases over I?
no

You need to go back and focus on the meaning of the individual notation before piecing it back together
I understood what the supremum is and also I know what the difference represents in the absolute value
But I‘m still not sure what the $x\in I$ means under the supremum and what this statement even means
bla
I know also that you can take the supremum only of a set but what’s our set here
You have a set I, this contains elements we call x
Yes
Take the function |f_n(x) - f(x)| and plug in every single x in I
take every output and put it in a box
that box is your set
But as n approaches infinity, our result will always be zero
Because $f_n(x) approaches f(x)$ as $n \rightarrow \infty$
bla

@wispy glade this seems to be a solution
The idea is to see how reciprocal scaling works with the simpler form of scaling squares.
The proportion of the square seems to change at the same ratio as half of it, so the hypotenuse, or c value, does not matter what is, in finding the area.
I kept in mind that we don't know which value is which side of the right triangle. I looked at squares, then rectangles, where the two side are different lengths. Different values for a and b converged to or diverged from the solution of A, 2A.

Can someone please help me find the mistake in my work or where I am going wrong? I have looked at it multiple times:
Here is the answerkey:
can barely see that 😭
Lmaoo sorry one second
I can send it in parts
@thorn bobcat is that better lmao
woaw you are brave
my ass would have diagonalize the matrix
Idk how to do that yet :(
legit jsut started systems of odes
we are doing elimition and substitution and such
you can take ODEs before linear algebra
Yes
Its a joint class lol but im starting lin alg after this
Its kinda mixed in tho like we used it for variation of perimeters and such
yea it's not impossible, just uhhh, a lot easier with lin alg
Lmao may as well do it that way then ig
but yeah how would you solve this without lin alg
like where did I go wrong compared to his work
just looks like you need to use initial conditions to find c1 and c2
I did and got it incorrect, but even before that
what I got for y
is what he had for x
im just wondering how that happened
it doesn't really matter if you solve for x or y first
your answer after plugging in initial conditions should be the same
where?
ok wait one sec let me retry the initial condiations then
at my y= here
he had
initial conditions ^
I got it wrong with those plugged in

I dont think its an algibric error because i redid it
but again It could be
his answer is correct tho I checked it again with an online calc
so im just wondering did i do something fundamentally wrong with the stratigy or is it just some math error
the method is fine, just some arithemetic error probably
What would lead x and y to be switched tho?
Ill recheck one more time then
@gritty rose I went over it extremely carefully up until that y and can not find anything wrong
@brave blaze @thorn bobcat if yall are alive lmao
Im really lost
well i'm kinda lazy to read all that
lmao you good nw
sorry i don't know this
Your general form of DE is right, just the initial condition arithmetic is wrong somewhwre
@gritty rose yeah im trying to redo it
thank you
@gritty rose so I got a different answer, which seams correct and the calculator shows it as correct if I shitch it to elimination method too:
But this is still different from what my prof got, and the calculator matches his answer when set to euilers method:
so are both these answers corect?
or i was just wondering why the disruptancies exist

(2k)! >= 2^k (k!)²
(2k+2)(2k)! >= (2k+2) 2^k (k!)²
(2(k+1))! >= (k+1) 2^{k+1} (k!)²
🤔
i know what i missed now
wait hold on
lemme try it
like this right
and then i just do the rest
(2k+2)! is definitely not equal to (2k+2)(2k+1)(2k)!
is it not?
it is not
am i tripping
maybe
why is it not equal
cuz if we let (2k+2) be equal to n, then its just n(n-1)(n-2)!, right?
(2k+2) = 2(k+1)
(2k+2)! = (2(k+1))(2k)!
yes
shouldnt this be (2(k+1)(2k+1)) instead
no
again,
(2k+2)! = (2k+2)(2k)(2k-2)...2x1
and then minus another 1 is 2k
the index is k, not 2k
thats why I rewrote 2k+2 as 2(k+1) so you could see
🤔
well lets verify, maybe Im saying shit who knows
,w (2n+2)!
hmm
(2k)! >= 2^k (k!)²
(2k+2)! >= (2k+1)(2k+2) 2^k (k!)²
(2k+2)! >= (k+1)(2k+1) 2^{k+1} (k!)² >= (k+1)(k+1) 2^{k+1} (k!)²
yeah I was saying shit, my bad I'm tired

how do I figure this out?
@bright jewel Has your question been resolved?
Hi there, first off, do you know how to normalise the expression?
I think so not sure
alright, give it a go and i can have a look at your normalised P expression here
im not sure
Do you know of z-scores?
ye kinda
Ok good
Your distribution is normal, you’re given your mean and SD
And you have your “target” of 113
So find the corresponding z-score
use the normalisation formula P(x > (xvalue-mean) /s. d)
then apply symmetry to convert the expression to 1-P(x < normalised value) and use a z score table to find the final answer
would I add together 113.4 with 14.84 to get z score?
itd be Z > (113-113.4)/14.84
Just jumping in to say that yes, I got the same Z score as you
so is that the answer or do I need to do more things?
Do you have a z-score table
btw it would help if you sketch a bell curve and shade the area you need (probability of a normal distrib is the area under its curve)
whatevers the simplest and fastest way to understand how to solve my answer
So your z-score table tracks the area from the left tail to the positive z-score

hi 🙂
in the rational funtion
(x^2 - 4)/(x-2)
how can I find the range
$\frac{{x^2 - 4}}{{x-2}}$
x
x^2 - 2 = (x-2)*(x+2)
so its
(x-2)(x+2)/(x-2)
yeah the second one
you can cancel out x-2
i know that part
the result is
x+2
yes
but what next?
x cannot equal to two
so i guess its R - {2} ?
are you sure thats the entire question
well my friend answer is 4
no
but that-s the part i need
the entire question is
find the graph, domain and range of...
(x^2 - 4)/(x-2)
the domain is
$\mathbb{R} - {2}$
x
$f(2) = (2) + 2 \
f(2) = 4 \
\text{Range of } f(x) = \mathbb{R} - {-4}$
my friend did something like this but i didnt understood haha
x
please ping if you answer this

Need help with this
what about it?
f-1(U) defined as the set of x such that f(x) in U for some U subset of B
I don’t really know how to start the proof
you may be able to show they're subsets of each other
ie $f\inv(f(X)) \subseteq X$ and $X \subseteq f\inv(f(X))$
jan Hayley
take any x in X and watch what happens to it when it goes through the f -> f\inv machine
So if we have x in f-1 (f(x)) then f(x) is in f(X) and then x is in X.
Like does that work
I guess the fact that it is invective has something to do with it
f(x) is in f(X) and then x is in X.
this isn't true for all functions
use this idea\
Okay so f(x) is in B
Since f is invective the output is distinct for each element in X and when you take the inverse you get the original domain X back?
I’m so confused
f(x) send every element of X to a distinct element in B call this T the subset of B, then f-1 takes every x in A such that such that f(x) is in T. But there can’t be any element in A outside of X that could be sent into T since f is injevtive so we get back X.
I think that makes sense
there can’t be any element in A outside of X that could be sent into T since f is injevtive
yep that's the key
seems good

arcsin(-√3/2)
It will be 4π/3 or 5π/3?
neither, it's -pi/3.
wtf is "positive form"
Arcsin's codomain is [-pi/2,pi/2]
-pi/3+2pi
So arcsin(-sqrt3/2) is CONGRUENT to 5pi/3
/2
answered your own question
Yeah I saw it thx
So codomain here is [-1.5 to 1.5]
-1.04 will be in the interval
Can you guys write step by step how do you solve arc functions
I am too much confused with arc functions and their values
If you show me how you solve it I'll follow all the steps for further questions
I know it is not a big thing but each day i am not getting proper explanation with arc functions
Because previously with the arctanx function i saw that we add +π and -π
This is the reason i am now doing it into decimals
Sometimes add +2π, -2π
There is no proper explanation on youtube and on google about these things
,w range of sinx
,w codomain of sinx
,w domain of sinx
,w domain of arcsin
,w domain of arcsin in radian

in this question, i chose the right answer, but for the wrong reasoning (according to the markscheme). my reasoning was that if frequency increases, that means it must be moving faster. and since the centripetal force is m(v^2/r), increasing the velocity will increase the centripetal force exponentially
this question doesnt ask for a reasoning, but if it did, would my explanation be correct?

im trying to solve y=6x-x^2 with points (1,5) with equation 1, where am i going wrong 😭😭
something is wrong here lol
did i do something stupid somewhere😭
if you arent cancelling out a whole bunch of numbers and ending up with something like h(something) at the top, theres something wrong
heres the actual problem in case i misintrepreted something but i dont think i did
hopefully
i prefer doing this by putting in x instead of what x actually is before doing any sort of calculation
i see, your error is in line 2
you also forgot -f(x)
but isnt that 5 from (1,5)
uh
