how do i solve this ?
have you tried a) or something ?
if you know what cofactor expansion is, it's not like there 3million ways to do that
Factorials:
8 sits,
4 boys,
4 girls,
must seat therefor 2 kids of the same sex can't seat next to each other
how many possible combinations

@gilded tapir Has your question been resolved?
You have $a_1 + 2d > 0$ and also $a_1 + 2d = \frac{5}{3} (a_1 + 4d)$
Alberto Z.
This because the $n^{th}$ general term of an arithmetic sequence is $a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d$
Alberto Z.
From the 2nd equation you get $a_1 = -7d$
Alberto Z.
Which gives the first to be $d < 0$
Alberto Z.
Hence, $$(n - 8)d > 0 \Rightarrow n-8 < 0 \Rightarrow n < 8$$
Thus, only the first 7 numbers are positive
(because n < 8 is equivalent to n ≤ 7, since we're working with whole numbers)

what does differentiating give me the max value of r?
when the derivative is zero, we get a local minimum, local maximum or inflexion point
all local maximas must lie on some point where the derivative is zero
so did the person in the video assume that its the local maximum?
since it could have been the minimum or inflextion point
i guess
but from the diagram u can tell its on the circle
the only one not on the circumference is 0
to show it is a bit of work

I need help with iv)
this is the solution
why is it 7/12 and not 5/12?
when it intersects the 1500 line at 5/2 and 15/2
does that not mean the first lot is 2.5 months, second lot is 5 months, ans third lot is 4.5 month ?
so its 5/12 ?
but i find if you account for first 10 months then you get 7/12
i need help 😭😭😭

?
it's because it's starting from march
I'm assuming the graph is plotted with 0 being jan 1st
but if you shift it along by 3, you begin with the population being <=1500
so you get 5/10 for the first 10 months
are we able to make that assumption?
it was given to me by someone who was showing me their solution
since i got 5/12, and the answer was apparently 7/12
and this is the solution they gave me for it
but i just couldn’t understand it still
if the graph begins with 0 being march 1st then 5/12 looks more reasonable
do you reckon it’s a mistake and the answer is 5/12? or you have to make the assumption it wants from when march starts and onward?
it would make more sense in that idea to mention a restriction in domain though
rereading the question, it looks like it does want the graph to start with 0=march, so it's probably a mistake

If I evaluate a limit and get 0^- from the left side and 0^+ from the right side, is the answer just 0 for both and so the limit exists or are the answers different and so therefore the limit does not exist?
limits of both sides converge to 0 so safe to say it exists
that just says which direction they approach 0 from, approaching 0 from above or below is still approaching 0 so it does exist
if it helps you can think of it graphically - even if one side is approaching from 0- and the other 0+, they still "meet" at 0 and the function is continuous over that very tiny interval

for part c, how did they find the values of j for both Fs?
@real musk Has your question been resolved?
its just trig, remember soh cah toa. For the 95N force, the j component (opposite) it is o/h = sin(73), or o = h*sin(73), where h is the hypotenuse, (aka the magnitude) of the force, in this case 95N
but like whts the working to find -27.78, 90.85, 53.33 and 96.21
-95cos(73) = -27.78,
95sin(73) = 90.85, etc.
this picture might help you understand it a bit better
thank you
no prob, just be careful to account for the direction of the i and j components. In this case, make sure you note that the i component is in the -i direction, so make sure you calculate it as -95cos(73)

Hey
The thing that always confuses me on sequences is what the n means
what is the n+1 mean after (-1)
it translates to
-1 times (-1)^n
n is basically the number of term
dont understand
so n+1 is 2
So how would I do T2
put n = 1
so we have this relation
T2 = -(1)^(1+1) 2T1
which is 1 times 2 times 3
= 6
so ur second term is 6
you just keep on putting n= 1 then 2 , 3 , 4
So t3= -1^(2+1) 2T2
its -1^(1+1)
that is minus 1 squared
= 1
this is called alternating series
so you get first term positive
next you get negative nd so
I got -1 from squaring -1
I dont get it
💀
you're prolly doing it wrong
dont do this
-1^2
do this
(-1)^2

@slender kraken Has your question been resolved?
Consider it as having the "letters" J, K, L, M, JK or the "letters" J, K, L, M, KJ. From this you subtract the intersection, which consists in those words formed with the "letters" L, M, JK, KJ
Hence the answer will be:
5! + 5! - 4! which gives 216

looks fine and correct
the diagnols are equal yes
nvm yea
I mean you can't really figure out anything about the upper/down length and the height
Not really
you have to use diagnols for something
damn it would be really convenient if anything else was given lmao
I'm not really seeing any formula that revolves around using diagnoals to find a trapezoids area so I assume you sort of split it into other shapes
but I kind of have no idea
yeah
I mean if the diagonals happen to be 90 degrees then obviously all the sides are 90 degrees
"they will not form a right angle unless it is a right trapezoid"
well this appearently is not a right trapezoid.
I mean
duh?
the upper and lower length of a trapezoid must be parralel
so that you can make a trapezoid
in the first place
i'm not sure how that helps lul

how do you derive $e^{-10t}$
it should be e^-10t
put {} around the exponent in latex
is that -10e^-10t ?
wakamole
ty
yes
is it $-10e^{-10t}$
wakamole
ok so you move the sign
so in that case ... what if it is $v(t) = t^2e^{-10t}$
wakamole
product rule
would it just be $2t(-10e^{-10t})$?
wakamole
this? ^
no
plz tell me what you mean
do you not know what the product rule is?
i dont know when to apply it
i think it is f(x(g) = f(x')(g) + f(x)(g')
yes
so i need to derive itby the equation i wrote?
(f(x)g(x))' = f'(x)g(x)+f(x)g'(x)
ok i might as well show you the entire equation then.. it is $i(t) = C \frac{dv(t)}{dt}$ and C = 2
so would it be like $Ct^2e^{-10t}$?
wakamole
then it would be $2t^2e^{-10t}$?
sry I have to go
@fast peak so would i just put the 2 in front of the equation? or do that after?
ok that is my last question
do you mind just answering that?
@fast peak plz
<@&286206848099549185>
i have $v(t) = t^2e^{-10t}$, and $ i(t) = C\frac{dv(t)}{dt}$ so is the derivative of v(t) = $i(t) = C(2t)e^{-10t}+t^2(-10e^{-10t}$?
wakamole
which equals $2(2te^{-10t}+t^2 *-10e^{-10t})$
wakamole

im struggling
how do i graph this
from -3 to 4 its negative
but how am i suppose to draw that if the only way it comes in from left to right is by increasing
not decreasing
question is asking for local max/min btw
to the left of -3, which is your local min, the function is actually decreasing
it goes: decreasing on the left, going right it hits x = -3 and starts increasing, then when it hits x = 4 it starts decreasing again
so you'd start graphing with something like this

Let T : R^3 -> R^3 be a Linear transformation with eigen values l1,l2,l3 and respective eigen vectors as (1,1,2) , (0,3,-1), (4,0,1l
Let x = (3,7,.5)
Find Tx
Could anyone please help me?
To find Tx
Should I write x as a Linear combination of the vectors given
After finding c1 (v1) + c2(v2)+ c3(v3)
T(x) = l1(c1 v1) + l2(c2 v2) + l3 (c3v3)
I'm not sure how this gives the transformation though.
Do you by any chance know why we did this?
the transformation is linear right
yes
so you can decompose your vector into many other vectors whose transformations are known
and then add them up
thats what your idea is
Ah I see
Okay thank you so much both of you!

How am i supposed to solve this..
Have you tried plugging in some values?
Cant read your righting, is that raised ot the power of 2 or e? and is the denominator e ?
Sure
You still have to break them down into their prime factorization in terms of n I think
Yess but i couldn't calculate the gcd of n^2 and (n+2)^2
Sorry, i m not sure how to manipulate the equation., i can see the answer because I wrote them down.
Ohh that's fine

Hey! May I ask for assistence for a Pre-Calculus problem that I'm stuck on? Below is the question and what I've done so far to solve the problem:
Question
Use trigonometric identities to find the solution of 2cos² (x) = 2sin² (x) + √2 in terms of integer k and the solutions in a single period [-π, π]. Give your answer in radians.
(Give your answer in the form of a comma-separated list if needed. Express numbers in exact form. Use symbolic notation and fractions where needed. Use k to represent any integer.)
What I've done so far
I have already gone ahead and solved the equation in two ways based on the Pythagorean identities for sin² (x) and cos² (x), but the reason I'm coming out today and asking this question is because of the result I got when solving for x:
# if using the identity `cos² (x)` => `1-sin² (x)`
x = arcsin(√((2-√2)/4))
OR
# if using the identity `sin² (x)` => `1-cos² (x)`
x = arccos(√((2+√2)/4))
What Im confused about is neither clearly look like a value that's on the unit circle, so I don't know what sort of angles these two values give back that are solutions to the equation above. I predict that they look similar to π/4 / 3π/4, but I have tried several answers on the period [-π, π] but I'm getting nowhere. I'm not sure on where to go from here, so I'm hoping someone can point out what I'm doing wrong/missing. Thanks!
Here's the steps I took:
you're very close!
but rather how about factoring out a 2 on both sides, then moving the sin^2(x) to the LHS and using a known trig identity
hint: I think you're knowledge with double when you use this identity
Divide both sides by 2?
yep, like this:
ignore the warning lol
then subtract sin^2(x)
then you have a known identity
i was just about to say lol
yep exactly
hint hint hint
well -sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) = cos^2(x) - sin^2(x) too lol
-a + b = b - a
key word: double
dang, gotta think about this. this seems like something I'd let slip by very easily
keywords: double and identity
Is this something related to even/odd ...?
not quite
siiii
So it'd be cos(2(theta)) = sqrt(2)/2, then use another formula for cos(2(theta)) to solve for x?
I think Im getting it
yeah youre right
You could check by plugging x into the original equation and test both sides.
okay got it
If it's not then I'll keep working it out. Thanks for the help!

not really sure how to solve this question
@fair warren Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Triple integral, try using a diagram to help you visualize the solid
my question is how to get the bounds for r
like i assume z is from sqrt(98-r) to sqrt(r^2) and
You just substitute in to get $z^2 + z^2 = 98$ so $z = r = 7$ (taking the case where $r > 0$)
south
And hence r ranges from 0 to 7

what you finding man
x
you heard of trig or nah
ya
what ratio do you think this is
i’ve got a test tomorrow and i’ve been overthinking this so much

is it sin?
yea
how would i answer it do i do 8 over sin29
ok this my problem pls help
sin is opposite over hypotenuse
oh
okay you good?
lemme get my calculator
thanks so much

Given a prime number p > 3:
Prove that the above expression is divisible by p^3
I think im on the right path? but im stuck completely after this
Maybe something with Fermat's little theorem
((p-1)!/k)^p + ((p-1)!/(p-k))^p = ((p-1)!/k(p-k))^p * (k^p + (k - p)^p)
maybe
kinda unlikely that the comp would give a question related to such
(\frac{(p-1)!}{k})^p + (\frac{(p-1)!}{p - k})^p = (\frac{(p-1)!}{k(p-k)})^p * (k^p + (k - p)^p)
,, (\frac{(p-1)!}{k})^p + (\frac{(p-1)!}{p - k})^p = (\frac{(p-1)!}{k(p-k)})^p * (k^p + (k - p)^p)

I got kicked out fam
@uneven ingot Has your question been resolved?
@uneven ingot Has your question been resolved?
why did the (5+cos 7x)^4 just suddenly jump to the numerator
also idk what youre doing with the f and g there
the whole blue RHS looks wrong
Ohhhhh that’s why
Okay
So my logic was this
I forgot what this rule was called
I was doing this
so it looks like youre trying to apply integration by parts
but it looks like you are applying basic integration rules wrong
the integral of (5+cos 7x)^4 is not 1/5 (5+cos 7x)^5
the power rule doesnt work like that
you should have learned chain rule by now
i mean
separation of variables is just basic algebraic manipulation
that part is correct
you can start at the step after youve separated variables
Wait let me check if it’s even a thing 😢
Thisss
Oh wait
I forgot to times 2 the inside
yeah
Idk how sin^2 really works
I wanna clear up
Is it
(Sin(x))^2 = sin^2(x) =sin(x^2)
the first two parts are correct
the last = sin(x^2) is not
this is one of those weird notation things in math where
sin is a function
and usually, when we superscript next to a function
like f^2(x)
it should mean f(f(x))
thats why f^-1(x) is the inverse, its like applying f negative 1 times
but trig functions are weird
for some reason we have decided that positive superscript is exponentiation of the entire term
Oh
so yeah once you understand that sin^2 x = (sin x)^2
the trig identities should make more sense
but these are honestly some really basic things to make mistakes on
it sounds like you got through a lot of math by muscle memory
Ye
and not really understanding the concepts behind what is happening
I mean I know the sine waves and cosine waves
Signals in engineering but idk like basic basic
so youll find yourself constantly making silly mistakes because you dont have an intuition for the rigorous rules
That’s true yk
i dont mind helping but there are a ton of knowledge gaps for me to fill
i dont want to like, alarm you or anything
after all, you got as far as you did kinda just blowing through
but my recommendation is to go back and review exactly how everything works
Yep
it will be massive help to you long term
i dont mean it that way
But yea hunni help me rq
im sorry
but anyways @uneven ingot if you have any simple questions i can help but i really really recommend a review at some point
I actually mostly memorise things and like practice but don’t know the meaning
id love to help but like i said i am only one person
I’ll ping u in a bit to review my question I’m almost done and tysm though
Dam can anyone help 😭
You smart right help me pls
open a new unoccupied channel
Hi there
Bottom right
Am I stuck in an infinite loop
Or am I unaware of some hidden tricks
Tbh I think I could expand the bracket and do sm about it
Can I?
your g(x) is wrong
if you take the derivative, youll notice you do not get g'(x)
you should check your work more often
checking integrals is really easy because you can just take the derivative
Am I cooked, is there something idk about
yeah this is not looking good
now that youve tried the dead end
and you understand why its a dead end
ill steer you in the right direction
the integral from the beginning doesnt need integration by parts
it just directly uses chain rule, thats it
i had you try the dead end for practice and understanding
😭 it’s 4am
okay
Wdym the integral from beginning
Like the start of the whole question?
Should I swap fx gx?
Seems like cool idea imma do that
Oh shit
not the beginning
just the part where you did integration by parts
when you split f and g
Doneeee
double check it
Is this it
Oh
there are some bad habits in your work but we can leave that to some other time
I was about to wolfram alpha
dont until you have your own work
Summarise it
check using wolframalpha at the end
because right now you need to get into good habits
and know what youre doing
overreliance on calculators at this point
is going to lead to more bad habits
That’s true
I’m exploiting my calc so hard
It’s carrying my gpa literally
But I shouldn’t be doing that u are right
How did u know
That no need to do f and g
Can use u
Okay I admit I also skip a lotta steps
Imma sleep now ping and lmk when to use f and g and when to use u
Thank u so much
its really difficult to give a good answer, basically, because there is no easy way to solve any integral. its almost entirely pattern recognition, and so thats why students who struggle with algebraic manipulation and arent comfortable doing them will struggle even harder, and why experience and practice is so important
chain rule states: d/dx f(g(x)) = d/dx f'(g(x)) g'(x)
(note that the above is written in a way that is slightly inaccurate technically, but i dont think youll notice and this might help you visualize the rule better)
in other words, as long as something looks like the form f'(g(x)) g'(x) then use chain rule
integration by parts is easier in one way but harder in another
product rule: (fg)' = f'g + fg'
integrate: fg = integral f'g + integral fg'
rearrange: integral f'g = fg - integral fg'
if the right side integral there is easier to solve, then apply integration by parts. in this way, its harder to see whether or not integration by parts would be useful to use, but nothing stops you from trying. when all of the easy methods (like chain rule) fail, sometimes i just turn a part of my brain off and just try integration by parts. if it doesnt work, try something else
so yeah, no good answer, but hopefully that helps

Can smb tell me how is angle "42.3 or 127/3" coterminal with 120?
Okay, but why was there a need to convert it back to degrees?
Can't we simply have (x,y) as cos 42.pi/3 and sin 42.pi/3 instead of having them as cos 120 and sin 120?
,w 254 mod 6
yeah you can do it in terms of radians
yeah
what?
ignore that
idk
Closed by @vapid pawn

How can 42 1/3 be in radians when 42 1/3 is a mixed number tho?
What's wrong with a mixed number having radians as its unit?
Radians are dimensionless, you just have a number of them, could have 2 radians, pi radians, 0.000001 radians, 7/3 radians it's all chill
You can convert it into a single fraction if you prefer it that way lol
@vapid pawn Has your question been resolved?
I meant that it's hard for me to connect the mixed number "42 1/3" to 120 degrees even if the 120 was in radians
Can u pls tell me a solution?
I tried plugging in 11pi/6 with "43 1/3" and still failed
Probably cos it's not 120 degrees (edit: it is, when you contextualise it with the Q above, as elaborated on below lmao)
lol
yea
Our mister may have made a mistake
I'll try to get everything checked.
And tysm again

Ill leave this ticket open though so if any1 else knows where's the problem and can reassure me
Right I've read through your problem
Wrong wording, the 42 1/3 is right
But that's telling you how many lots of 2pi go into your fraction
So 42 lots remainder 1/3 lots of 2pi
So that means you have 2pi/3 rads on the unit circle = 120 degrees
No it is that's fine
But you just need to use it correctly
Take the remainder, multiply it by 2pi and that's how you get the angle on the unit circle
Then you can convert it to degs if you need to
So 2pi/3 x 180/pi gives you the 120
And hence the short way to do it is to just multiply the remainder by 360
OHHH
But 42 1/3 is not 120 degrees in itself, it just is the route to getting 120 degrees
Well your division is finding how many lots of 2pi radians go into the overall angle right
So yeah
When you divide it tells you 254pi/3 is equivalent to 42 x 2pi + 1/3 x 2pi (radians)
Np lol

Let a variable line pass via the centre of $x^2+y^2-16x-4y=0$, meet the positive coordinate axes at points A and B, then find the minimum value of OA+OB where O is the origin
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't know
here I suspect I have to use something like AM>GM>HM
am I right?
$\frac{8b+2a}{ab}=1$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't know
hmm
is this simply a calculus problem
assuming it is
ok, that makes it sort of doable
let the angle the line makes with the axis be $\theta$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't know
$\tan\left(\theta\right)\ =\frac{8}{2-l\cos\left(\theta\right)}$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't know
am I overcomplicating it
Find the center and radius, then use the radius as hypotenuse, then find OA+OB in terms of inclination, then calculus
And remember that theta is between 90 deg and 180 deg
why must the hypotenuse be the radius
Because right-angle triangle?
Its not an ellipse is it?

what part?
i dont know which law to use
i know it law of cosines
SSS
but i dont know how to apply it
did you draw the triangle?
no
let me draw it rq
alr done
idk how to find angle B
when i only have the formula to find angle A
@neon geyser
can u show me the thing u drew?
is it okay or
yes i think it's okay
can you apply the law of cosines?
instead of using the formula (which you'll confuse yourself with)
think about the formula more abstractly
a^2 + b^2 = c^2?
(the side opposite to b)^2 = (side1 adjacent to b)^2 + (side2 adjacent to b)^2 - 2 (side1 adjacent to b) (side2 adjacent to b) cos (angle B)
nah
you can only use that when this triangle is right
can u show that this triangle is not right?
should be trivial ig
uh i cant cause i have no angles
no
if it's right then it'd satisfy this
wdym
,w 15^2 + (15*sqrt(3))^2
dont you use law of cosines when you have all sides
well that's okay
you're supposed to know by checking
not by drawing
u said law of cosines and i saw 5 marks so i assumed it was law of cosines
do you know what law of cosines is anyway?
yeah
Anyway yeah for your question it's fairly easy to see it's right
hmm alright
well it doesn't matter
how do you know those are the angles?
do you know 30-60-90 triangles?
or 45-45-90 triangles?
they're special triangles
the reason i know their angles is because of their side ratios
x = 15
why don’t you redraw your triangle first
i already did
well you know immediately the answer is 60 degrees lol but yeah u can assume u don’t
okay now use sohcahtoa on angle b
what is that
oh ok
tan = opposite/ adjacent
with the sides?
you abbreviate that to sohcahtoa
yes
you can do anything really
sin(b), cos(b) or tan(b)
oh wait your question wants you to use tan
so use that
how do i do that
draw the triangle inside the unit circle
scale everything down by 30
btw you wouldn’t have to do any of this
idk what your question means “use the unit circle”
me neither
normally you’d just do tan(B) = opposite side/ adjacent side
but what is the B
oh im dumb
i mean we do know but let’s assume we don’t lol
just send a pic of your new triangle
so for part A
wait part A says determine m<B
u can just argue that this is a 30-60-90 triangle
and then show that angle B is then 60 by definition
sin(B)
not just sin
sin is a function
you need to feed it some input
same for cos and tan
yeah
okay then u can say that
ill just explain why the triangle is a right angle
u first verified thag this triangle is right
what did you tell me before
and then identified that it’s a 30-60-90 by looking at its side ratio
angle B is the angle opposite to the side 15sqrt(3)
and in a 30-60-90 triangle, the angle opposite to xsqrt (3) has measure 60
wot
draw this
i cant send pictures in the question answer box thingy
and scale the sides of your triangle side down by 30

then what can u do? in that case they want you to use sentences?
i have no idea
wdym scale it
im confused
??
i’m asking how u can submit your answer
do you write sentences or do you write answers or what’s going on?
i have to like explain how i did it
