warm siren
#

could someone help me figure out whats going on in this question?

warm siren
#

i undrstand whats happening until the k = 2 and k = 1/2 business

#

And then i have no clue what to do

#

i mean the whole multiplication zero equality doesnt work here because its an inequality yeah?

umbral dome
#

well the points where the equation stops being positive are the same points where it's equal to 0

#

so it can often be useful to solve an inequality by considering the associated equation

warm siren
#

oh yeah

#

but then what happens?

#

k > 2 and k < 1/2 ? Are those the answers?

warm siren
#

what?

warm siren
open zinc
#

What happens if k=1 ?

#

Is there a real root?

warm siren
#

uhhh no i dont think so

#

actually

#

yeah there’d be two real roots

open zinc
warm siren
#

Okay

open zinc
warm siren
#

Alright, thanks

#

I also need help with this one

#

teacher has 2x - 9 but i have this

open zinc
#

Shouldn’t you have +18 instead of -18

warm siren
#

Oh right, thanks

open zinc
#

Other than that you’re right

warm siren
#

really?

#

but the answer is weird

open zinc
#

Unless you should say the divide by x portion goes to zero in the limit

warm siren
#

What?

open zinc
#

Yeah you’re supposed to ignore the last remainder

open zinc
# warm siren What?

And the intuition for this is that the asymptote is what the curve approaches but will never reach, so you can plug in a large number like 1000 and see that the equation is (2,000,000 - 5000 - 12)/(1000+2) = 1991.00599 which is very close to 2x - 9 = 1991 but is off by just a little, specifically your 6/(x+2) = 6/(1002) = 0.00599 term

#

But since that 6/(x+2) will get closer and closer to zero as x gets larger, we drop it from the slant asymptote equation

why does my fx-991es plus calculator gives me the wrong answer in indefinite integration, if i do it with my hand i get the answer 17 and with calculator its 17.88888 btw the value is 3 upper bound 2 lower bound, and 4x2-3x btw the 2 is squared

wary tendon
#

Can someone explain how this is wrong?

hot herald
#

its not

#

you miscommunicated what you had earlier

wary tendon
#

wdym

hot herald
#

from what you typed, it sounded you were trying to do
$$\int_2^3 4x^2-3x \dd{x}$$

glossy valveBOT
#

ℝαμΩℕωⅤ

wary tendon
#

yes this

hot herald
#

so you want to do that and not $\int_2^3 8x - 3\dd{x}$?

glossy valveBOT
#

ℝαμΩℕωⅤ

hot herald
#

because those aren't the same thing

wary tendon
#

oh

#

so its not wrong?

hot herald
#

you're conflating integrands with antiderivatives

wary tendon
#

just what i have typed in the calcultor

hot herald
#

what are you typing into your calc

wary tendon
hot herald
#

then, yeh, the calc will give you a different result than intended

#

since that's not what you want

#

if you shove this into your calc, it'll give 17

wary tendon
#

btw do you know where i can study plane geometry and trignometry (ratios, functions, equations, identities)?

hot herald
#

khan academy for the basics

wary tendon
#

i have a uni test in 2 days

#

im dead

#

its an addmisson test and im studying these things for the first time

hot herald
#

is that stuff you should've already learned before taking integral calculus

wary tendon
#

i was a ib student but took ai sl course not aa

hot herald
#

antiderivative of 8x-3 is 4x^2 - 3x, yes

Can someone help on this stats question?

full forumBOT
lilac axle
#

I do not understand the last part of the answer at all

#

For example, why is the first one P(X=2 and Y=1) when that would mean P(X=2) = 1/6 and P(Y=1) = 2/3 which means that Y>X

#

Not X>Y

#

Is it because its not about P(X) > P(Y)

#

But instead that the particular variable of X is > than Y

#

So X=1 isnt there because its bigger than none

#

then X = 2 > Y=1

#

But why is there no P(X=8 and Y=1) P(X=8 and Y=3) etc????

#

I don't understand that

#

Basically I am asking why is it only P(X=8)

i was trying to derive the mean and variance of discrete uniform

#

what is this parameter C exactly

#

can we treat it as a constant?

e.g. C={1,2,3,4,5,6} if it was the roll of a die

glass gulch
#

then c = 6?

wooden yarrow
#

no, |C|=6

#

|C| is the number of elements in the set C

#

C is a set

glass gulch
#

can we treat it as a constant in the summation?

ah nvm

let $f(x) = \ln(1+x)$ qnd let $p(x)$ be the taylor polinomial of third order centered at $x_0 = 0$ show using the middle value theorem (cauchy theorem) that $\frac{f(x)-p(x)}{x^4} = \frac{f^{(4)}(c)}{4!}$ for some c between 0 and x

@torpid perch Has your question been resolved?

clever forge
#

What have you tried, @torpid perch?

torpid perch
#

nothing much

#

I read some things about ivt

#

we know its centered around 0

#

but cant seem to find a way to use ivt here

#

also the clue: "for some c between 0 and x" what does that mean

#

<@&286206848099549185>

clever forge
#

Do you know what the IVT states?

torpid perch
#

if a function is continuous over a closed interval [a, b], it encompasses every value between f(a) and f(b) within that range.

#

does close or open interval matter?

clever forge
#

I think the question isn't asking about the IVT

#

I think it's asking about the Mean Value Theorem

torpid perch
#

ahh mvt u mean

clever forge
#

(which talks about there being some c in the interval at which the slope is equal to the slope between (a,f(a)) and (b, f(b)))

torpid perch
#

if f is continuous over the closed interval [a,b] and differentiable over the open interval (a,b), then there exists a point c∈(a,b) such that the tangent line to the graph of f at c is parallel to the secant line connecting (a,f(a)) and (b,f(b)).

clever forge
#

that's the one

torpid perch
#

ok mvt is hard for me

clever forge
#

(I think they call it the Cauchy MVT as well)

#

have you tried to draw a picture

#

or Google the name to get a picture?

torpid perch
#

draw a picture of whazt

#

mvt

clever forge
#

yea

clever forge
torpid perch
#

I was studying ivt instead of mvt I thought it referred to ivt, but makes sense that is mvt instead

#

mmh dunno if hard, but im new to the mvt

#

also, secant line?

clever forge
#

yea it's like the tangent line

#

but it's between two points

#

(instead of the tangent line which has only one)

torpid perch
#

okay

#

now what?

torpid perch
#

mmm

#

how does the derivative play a role here?

#

I am still confused as hell

#

I need more hints

clever forge
#

try and think about what a Taylor polynomial of third order (at 0) looks like

#

and what it represents

torpid perch
#

mmm

#

an approximation?

#

idk what it represents?

#

specially centered at 0

#

btw

#

f(0) = ln(1) = 0

#

but dunno how that helps

clever forge
#

these are basic things that you're not doing tbh

#

show some effort

torpid perch
#

okay

#

,, P_3(0) = \frac{f(0)}{0!}(x-0)^0 + \frac{f'(0)}{1!}(x-0)^1 + \frac{f''(0)}{2!}(x-0)^2 + \frac{f'''(0)}{6} (x-0)^3

glossy valveBOT
#

938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71

torpid perch
#

mayhaps?

#

f(0) = ln(1) = 0

#

$f'(x) = \frac{1}{1+x} \cdot 1 \ f'(0) = 1$

glossy valveBOT
#

938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71

torpid perch
#

how to use mvt here? wtf

clever forge
#

have you seen Taylor's theorem with a remainder?

torpid perch
#

yes

#

lagrangian remainder?

clever forge
#

what does f(x) - p(x) look like?

torpid perch
#

this?

#

maybe I am misunderstanding, we prolly are referring to different stuff

clever forge
#

I can't remember if it's Cauchy or Lagrange

#

but yea

clever forge
torpid perch
#

?

#

n = 4?

clever forge
#

I am not spelling out every single thing for you bruh

#

just sit and think for a bit

#

or move on and let it work in the background of your mind

#

(it's good to struggle a bit)

#

(and try things out)

torpid perch
#

but if n = 4, shouldnt it be n = 3 since poly of 3rd degree?

clever forge
#

half of math is doing the wrong stuff and reorienting yourself catthumbsup

torpid perch
#

this f^4(c) stuff means they are talking about R_3

#

problem is where is this (x-a)^n+1 stuff is going

#

we know a = 0

#

x^4 cancels from numerator and denominator

#

R_3 <= f(x) - p(x)

#

mayhaps.

clever forge
#

only open this if you give up

#

(it's something you should've seen already tbh)

torpid perch
#

maclaurin polynomials is the taylor polys centered at 0

#

ohh, there is a remainder section

#

$R_3(x) = \ln(1+x) - P_3(x)$

glossy valveBOT
#

938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71

#

wtff! I need more hints

clever forge
#

You will not get any.

#

Look at the proof on that page.

#

It literally spells out your problem step by step.

Hi everyone!

I have a question regarding this excerpt from a book.
Specifically the part that I marked in orange. I provided the rest for context.
I know the concept of probabilistic method and ramsey etc. But I do not understand what the author is trying to tell me with this line (the orange one) How is this to be understood ?
Thanks in advance !

tame bobcat
nova basin
#

sounds like they're just making a general condition for which the theorem's hypothesis is verified

tame bobcat
#

could you explain what you mean ?

#

oh hang on

#

it is no longer n chose 2

nova basin
#

oh

tame bobcat
#

you mean they generalized the expression such that it would be true for k colours instead of 2 ?

nova basin
# tame bobcat

look at the proof, it was never meant to be since the proof (at the union bound part) uses nCk ... < 1 at the end of the line

#

so it could be that the theorem contains a typo

tame bobcat
#

wait I feel like the expression in the theorem is wrong

#

ah yes

#

what you said

#

ok so lets say it is a typo

#

I still dont get what the orange part is trying to tell me

#

somehow it doesnt make sense

nova basin
#

yeah I agree it's weird

#

maybe they mean doing this abstract calculation to find this criterion is simpler than checking whether 1000C20 x 2^(-20C2 + 1) < 1

tame bobcat
#

that sounds reasonable

#

well ok

#

thank you very much for your help !

no idea how to do matrices at all, this was given as sub work but my teacher never taught us this

hazy lance
torn jolt
#

ive only done adding and substracing a matrix

umbral dome
#

multiplying a matrix by a scalar (a number like 2, 5, -8) just means multiplying each entry by that scalar

okay thank you!

You'll apply it everywhere when you go to matrix multiplication 😅

if $\vec a = (a_1, a_2, a_3)$ and $\vec b = (b_1, b_2, b_3)$ then [ \vec a \cdot \vec b = a_1 b_1 + a_2 b_2 + a_3 b_3 ]

can anyone tell me WHY -3^4 equals a negative number

umbral dome
#

by convention we set the order of operations so that [ -3^4 = -(3^4) \ne (-3)^4 ]

rapid rain
#

it's - (3^4)

lofty lynx

because -3^4 = -(3^4)

IF it were (-3)^4 it would be positive

Has your question been solved?

steel cove

think of it as -x^4 with x being 3 and it makes more sense

#

so if i have a geometric sequence with thr common ratio of -1 and 1st value of 2/3 what would be the nes 2 values

open hemlock
#

So this is wrong

hot herald
#

is wrong

#

you want to raise the whole ratio to the power

open hemlock
#

Oh kk

#

Thx

hot herald

and for that you'd need () around the -1

without them, you're getting the wrong signs

how do u find the parallel one

#

b

daring bay
#

just find AB vector

torn jolt
#

yh

daring bay
#

then divide it by its magnitude, so you get a unit vector

torn jolt
#

i did

#

so

#

AB=11j-2i

daring bay
#

since the direction cosines are same

#

it is in the same

torn jolt
#

the magnitude is 5 roor 5

daring bay
#

direction as AB

#

but it is also a unit vector

torn jolt
daring bay
#

yes

torn jolt
#

isnt unit vector 1/magnitude x normal vector

#

so

#

is it just

#

1/5 root 5 (11j-2i)

daring bay
#

what i said

#

yes

torn jolt
#

why is it + or -

daring bay
#

because

#

look theyre going in opposite directions

#

but theyre still

#

parallel

torn jolt
#

yh

#

true

daring bay
#

so + would be in ABs

#

direction

#

(-) would be

torn jolt
#

so if i want to find a unit vector

#

just do

daring bay
#

antiparalle to AB

torn jolt
#

1/magnitude x vector

#

and if its parralel

daring bay
torn jolt
#

its the same thing?

daring bay
#

the x,y,z components of a vector

#

decide its direction

daring bay
torn jolt
torn jolt
daring bay
torn jolt
#

if it asked me

daring bay

the negative too

daring bay

if thats what youre asking

#

but their direction is the same

#

the parallel of AB and the unit vector

daring bay
#

its like

#

okay look at this

torn jolt
#

the method

torn jolt
daring bay
torn jolt

notice how both these vectors are parallel

whats common is that the

I got it

torn jolt
daring bay

the i and j components are same

It's -4i +7j

please help, i do not know where beta - alpha/6 comes from

#

ive gotten (beta - alpha)/4, but it wasnt a strick inequality either

I mean you can always find m such that 3^{-m} < (beta-alpha) / 4 strictly. I don't think you need the /6 for it to work.

yeah thats what i was thinking

but i just wasnt sure why he put the /6 in the first place

Might be arbitrary. Like to make it definitely smaller than (b-a)/4

"Intervals of the form (3k+1/3^m, 3k+2/3^m) are the "middle thirds". These
are the intervals that are being systematically taken out in the process of constructing
the Cantor set. Here k ranges from 0 to 3^(m-1)-1. So for m = 1 we have just k = 0
and we take out the middle third (1/3,2/3). For m = 2, k = 0,1,2, and there
are three middle thirds of length 1/9: (1/9,2/9), (4/9,5/9) and (7/9,8/9). In
general, there are 3^(m-1) middle thirds of length 1/3^m, which are taken out
at each step of the construction. In the notation of Rudin

( I have the third edition ):
E_1 = [0,1/3] U [2/3,1] = complement of (1/3,2/3) relative to [0,1]
E_2 = [0,1/9] U [2/9,1/3] U [2/3,7/9] U [8/9,1]
= complement of (1/9,2/9) U (4/9,5/9) U (7/9)
...
...
E_m = complement of U ( (3k+1)/3^m, (3k+2)/3^m ) relative to [0,1], where
the union is taken over k = 0,2,..., 3^(m-1)-1.

Since P = intersection of all E_m's, and each "middle-thirds" interval
does not intersect some E_m, it follows that P does not intersect any of the
"middle thirds" intervals.

Given an interval (alpha,beta), we ask whether we can fit into it a "middle thirds"
interval, that is, an interval of the form ((3k+1)/3^m, (3k+2)/3^m). Now Suppose
(alpha,beta) contains an interval of the form [j/3^(m-1),(j+1)/3^(m-1)]
for some j=0,1,...3^(m-1)-1. Then it will also contain the 'middle third' of
that interval, namely -- it will contain ( (3j+1)/3^m, (3j+2)/3^m ). So
how can we ensure that (alpha,beta) contains an interval of the form

[j/3^(m-1),(j+1)/3^(m-1)] ? A sure way is to require that half of our interval
will be longer than 1/3^(m-1) (=the length of [j/3^(m-1),(j+1)/3^(m-1)]). In that
case, if we slide in steps of 1/3^(m-1) starting from zero, then if the first time
we hit (alpha,beta) we are not already inside, then we will have covered less than
half of it (by our requirement) so that in the next step we will be inside.

So we require:

(beta - alpha)/2 > 1/3^(m-1), which amounts to

(beta - alpha)/6 > 1/3^m"

question

#

for line 4

#

how did they factor out power of -11

#

when theres only -10

#

on the let side

fierce gyro
#

the -11 is the lowest exponent

#

so it's factored out

desert cypress
#

how

#

but the left side

#

only has (1-x^2)^-10

#

how can u take -11

#

out of it

fierce gyro
#

from there

desert cypress
#

yes il

#

ik

#

but there isnt -11 on the left side

#

so the highest u can take is -10

#

just like how we took ^9 and not ^10

#

bec left side only had nine

#

and not ten

#

im confused

fierce gyro
#

because ^9 is the lowest, and ^-11 is the lowest too

fierce gyro
#

-11 is lower than -10

desert cypress
#

how can u take -11 out of -10

fierce gyro
#

(1-x^2)^-11 • (1-x^2) = (1-x^2)^-10

desert cypress
#

ndvchsnvd

#

its the negativr exponent

#

i dont like it

ecstasy me neither it's a nasty exercise too

just takr lowest exponent

In a drawer Sandy has $5$ pairs of socks, each pair a different color. On Monday Sandy selects two individual socks at random from the $10$ socks in the drawer. On Tuesday Sandy selects $2$ of the remaining $8$ socks at random and on Wednesday two of the remaining $6$ socks at random. The probability that Wednesday is the first day Sandy selects matching socks is $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, Find $m+n$.

whats wrong with my solution:
let all socks be unique: a1a2b1b2c1c2d1d2e1e2.
there are 10c2x8c2x6c2 ways to choose socks for each day; that is the denominator.
we do not want to choose a pair on the first day. there are 10x8 ways to do that. wlog let the chosen socks be a1b1.
now lets do casework on the second day:
case 1: 2 socks from pair in day 1
there is only one way to choose the socks on day 2: a2b2. there are 3 more ways to choose a pair: c1c2/d1d2/e1e2. 3x1=3
case 2: one sock from pair in day 1 + another one
there are 2 ways to choose a sock that was from day 1: a2 or b2. we choose another sock, not from day 1: c1c2d1d2e1e2 which is 6 days. there are 2 pairs left, and we choose a pair. 2x6x2=24.
case 3: all socks not from day 1
we choose 2 socks from c1c2d1d2e1e2 that are not a pair. 6 ways to choose the first, 4 ways to choose the second. there is only 1 pair left. 6x4x1=24.

we now have 10x8x(24+24+3)/(10c2x8c2x6c2) which simplifies to 68/315 = 383. this is wrong. the answer is 26/315

I have solved this question and got 19.11 to two d.p after using the sine rule about 5 times and after finding the difference between the two congruent triangles and by finally adding 5 please check this answer @velvet sedge since you helped me to solve it. I would really appreciate that and if you can, tell me if there is a quicker way to solve this. thanks for your help.

limber forum
#

But I checked anyway

#

19.11 is right catthumbsup

#

You can avoid a little undue suffering with the sine rule though

#

Let the height = x, horizontal distance to the tower = y

#

That means tan25 = x/y, and tan19 = (x-5)/y

#

2 eqns 2 unknowns solve

full forumBOT
#

@mellow bone Has your question been resolved?

mellow bone
limber forum
#

So I would probably divide equation 2 by equation 1, $$\frac{\tan{19}}{\tan{25}} = \frac{x-5}{y} \cdot \frac{y}{x}$$

glossy valveBOT
#

TayBee

limber forum
#

the y's cancel, so you can bring the x in the denominator up, put all the x's on one side, then factorise/divide through to make it the subject

#

But I feel like GCSE doesn't do much in the way of dividing equations

#

So

#

Alternatively

#

Using equation 1

#

y = x/tan25

#

You can substitute that into equation 2

#

$\tan 19 = \frac{(x-5)\tan 25}{x}$

A little bit of rearranging again and you'll get x out of it

thanks so much this question plagued me for the last 3 days, I finally understand it now thanks to your help, and that other guy I tagged earlier taught me how to do it but using the sine rule it takes a good 10 minutes. I don't know if you'll agree with me on this (since you're probably a math genius) but I don't think it's reasonable for 15 year olds having to go through this in the UK. Well ,at least I finally understand it now, Thank you so much again @limber forum 🙏

#

in a for example you could multiply the second equation by 1/3 and the first by 3 for (i)

#

scalar multiplication seems like the easiest way here

#

actually no thats not what it meant

#

you can just do one of the two things i mentioned

#

then its fine

copper vortex
glacial pasture
#

if you multiply an equation by a number, say 5, it will have the same solutions as before

#

you just need to do some multiplying that gets the needed coefficients to match

copper vortex
#

Ngl i looked at the answers and it still confuses me

#

The answers were i) 3x - 6y =-18 and 3x - y = 2, ii) x-2y=-6 and 6x - 2y = 4

Assignment: just calculate this.

I quite literally tried everything. Separating in 2 integrals doesnt help, no u-sub works, dividing the function inside by cos x or sin x to get tan x or cot x doesnt help either, and kings rule leads to a phd

granite torrent
#

this is linear system of equations problem

#

ur goal is to rewrite the integrand in the form (constant1) + (constant2 * u'/u); after u do this u can directly integrate

#

u can internally justify this bcz the numerator contains a linear combination of the denominator and the derivative of the denominator

zealous wren
#

no other way to solve it?

#

never seen the u' thing.

zealous wren
#

not here i mean

granite torrent
#

ik this because it only uses methods u wrote

zealous wren
#

i am not from the US

granite torrent
#

"Separate in 2 integrals" and "u-sub"

#

there is nothing more advanced than that going on here

zealous wren
#

I know for example that u rewrite f(x)=1/(x+1)^2 as A/(x+1) + B/(x+1)^2

#

but the u', thats what trips me up

granite torrent
#

it's just how i wrote a u-substitution integral

#

in ur example it would be a constant * (2cosx - sinx) / (2sinx + cosx)

#

2sinx + cosx (denominator) is u
the derivative of the denominator is u', and this function above ^ is something you can directly integrate with a u-substitution

zealous wren
#

ah its the ln thingy

#

u'/u is ln|u|

#

thats what u mean right

granite torrent
#

ye

#

when u integrate

zealous wren
#

well where do i even start thinking about how to rewrite this?

#

i dont want just the pure result because it wont help me when encountering similar or new problems

#

so it would help me a lot if you give me a little hint and start trying on my own

granite torrent
#

that message i replied to in particular should be a good hint for this problem though if needed i can explain more

zealous wren
#

ah i see

#

i understand now

#

and this way i can even verify my work

#

because whatever i come up with should still be equal to my f(x)

how exactly do you get e, the coprime here of 1740, do you just bruteforce or is there an actual method

Any coprime works

is there a way to find coprimes easily

Any prime is also a coprime of that

ok so I am looking at this question and attached answer scheme. For the last case where x and y are non zero, they immediately conclude that $x^2=y^2=\frac{1}{(2*\lambda)}$. What I did was treat $x^2=\frac{1}{(2\lambda)}$ and $y^2=\frac{1}{(2\lambda)}$ as separate cases and I plugged both in individually to equation 3 to find x and y. However, this approach while being correct took more time and I'd like to understand their thought process as well.

So the indefinite integral should be arctan(x)

#

arctan(x) is divergent (I think)

#

but the answer is not DNE

#

so I must be doing something wrong

It converges to 1.57?

Seems like a very random value

it's not

pi over 2 facepalm

#

arctan is the inverse of tan

#

over the branch (-pi/2, pi/2)...

so it's arctan(2)+pi/2

Pretty small question, but, in this question where I need to factorise

silver sinew
#

can i leave my answer as: (x+9/2 +/-sqrt45/4)^2

sweet ingot
#

You are asked to find solutions

silver sinew
#

no just factorising

#

i know i need the solutions

sweet ingot
#

Sure?

#

(Missing =0)

silver sinew
#

ye

#

ok

#

so if it was just factorising that would make sense as an answer

sweet ingot
#

And kinda weird to write (…+/-…)^2

silver sinew
#

what would you write

sweet ingot
#

(…+…) * (… - …)=0

silver sinew

ah yes

#

i just hate doing it the long way

Is the answer to this that because w is an element of span(s), it is a linear combination of v1, v2 and v3. So hence, the set {v1,v2,v3,w} must be dependent?

The perimeters of triangles AA1A2, BB1B2, and CC1C2 are 21 cm, 6 cm, and 73 cm, respectively. Calculate the perimeter of triangle ABC.

And what can you say about these two lines

hard birch

near mirage
#

Like you move C1M to C1T where T is the intersection point of the circle and the BC

near mirage
#

You move the sides that are inside of the big triangle and rotate them so that they land on the big triangle

#

I hope this makes sense?

hard birch
#

yeah kinda wait

#

like u rotate them to be in the middle??

#

im trying to visualize

near mirage
#

You rotate the yellow side that is inside

#

Onto the big triangle

near mirage
#

You rotate C1M to be on the big triangle

#

Same for C2M

#

And so on

like that or am i wrong???

thick hedge
#

I'm having trouble understanding this proof

thick hedge
#

why does the defn of the direct sum imply the only way to write 0 as a sum of elements is to take each element to be zero

fast peak
#

what is the definition of direct sum you are working with

thick hedge
fast peak
#

well 0+0+0...+0 is certainly one way to write 0 as the sum v_1+...+v_m

#

and by the first bullet point it has to be unique

#

so thats also the only way to write 0 as the sum v_1+...+v_m

thick hedge
#

that follows from this?

fast peak
#

depends on what you mean by that

#

subspaces appear here, yes

thick hedge
#

as the only properties that a subspace can surely have are these

#

0+0+0.... must be one of the ways

#

but why can't I write it as say 1 -1

fast peak
#

ignoring the issue that 1 might not be in your subspaces

#

the first bullet point says that by definition for a direct sum you are only allowed one way to write 0

thick hedge
#

what if 1 and -1 are

fast peak
#

and you already have your one way which is 0+...+0

#

so you cant have another one

thick hedge
#

I don't follow

fast peak
#

if you can write it as 1-1 then you dont have a direct sum

#

I dont know how to write it clearer. maybe someone else does
