please help
Have you heard of the vertical line test?
Yes
no thats the full question
Oh so we have vto use that here
alright
so it should intersect only at one point
right?
Yep, but to graph it you probably want to solve for y first

could someone help me figure out whats going on in this question?
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?
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
k=1?
what?
sorry i dont understand
There should be one at x=-1/2
Okay
All this to say 1/2 < k < 2
Shouldn’t you have +18 instead of -18
Oh right, thanks
Other than that you’re right
Unless you should say the divide by x portion goes to zero in the limit
What?
Yeah you’re supposed to ignore the last remainder
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
wdym
from what you typed, it sounded you were trying to do
$$\int_2^3 4x^2-3x \dd{x}$$
ℝαμΩℕωⅤ
yes this
so you want to do that and not $\int_2^3 8x - 3\dd{x}$?
ℝαμΩℕωⅤ
because those aren't the same thing
you're conflating integrands with antiderivatives
just what i have typed in the calcultor
what are you typing into your calc
.
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
btw do you know where i can study plane geometry and trignometry (ratios, functions, equations, identities)?
khan academy for the basics
i have a uni test in 2 days
im dead
its an addmisson test and im studying these things for the first time
is that stuff you should've already learned before taking integral calculus
i was a ib student but took ai sl course not aa
so i never studied this
but integration is ok
antiderivative of 8x-3 is 4x^2 - 3x, yes

Can someone help on this stats question?
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?
it says right at the top, C is a finite, nonempty set of numbers
e.g. C={1,2,3,4,5,6} if it was the roll of a die
then c = 6?
can we treat it as a constant in the summation?
ah nvm
thank you

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?
@torpid perch Has your question been resolved?
What have you tried, @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>
Do you know what the IVT states?
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?
I think the question isn't asking about the IVT
I think it's asking about the Mean Value Theorem
ahh mvt u mean
(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)))
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)).
that's the one
ok mvt is hard for me
(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?
yea
so why's it hard?
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?
yea it's like the tangent line
but it's between two points
(instead of the tangent line which has only one)
mmm
how does the derivative play a role here?
I am still confused as hell
I need more hints
try and think about what a Taylor polynomial of third order (at 0) looks like
and what it represents
mmm
an approximation?
idk what it represents?
specially centered at 0
btw
f(0) = ln(1) = 0
but dunno how that helps
can you write it out?
these are basic things that you're not doing tbh
show some effort
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
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
how to use mvt here? wtf
have you seen Taylor's theorem with a remainder?
what does f(x) - p(x) look like?
looks like R_n to me for some suitable n
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)
but if n = 4, shouldnt it be n = 3 since poly of 3rd degree?
half of math is doing the wrong stuff and reorienting yourself 
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.
maclaurin polynomials is the taylor polys centered at 0
ohh, there is a remainder section
$R_3(x) = \ln(1+x) - P_3(x)$
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
wtff! I need more hints
You will not get any.
Look at the proof on that page.
It literally spells out your problem step by step.
the one that uses rolles theorem? or which proof specifically 😭

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 !
sounds like they're just making a general condition for which the theorem's hypothesis is verified
I am sorry, but I dont understand this as well
could you explain what you mean ?
oh hang on
it is no longer n chose 2
oh
you mean they generalized the expression such that it would be true for k colours instead of 2 ?
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
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
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

how is it wrong
Well so first thing that's weird is they are asking about placement of point A, such that rectangle BCDE is formed
i think its just wrong

placement of point A has nothing to do with rectangle BCDE
Assuming they meant rectangle ABCD, your answer should be correc

what I mentioned
i did
p(x) I guess..
oh, its of third order
centered at 0
,, P_3(x) = f(0) + f'(0)(x-0)^1 + \frac{f''(0)}{2!}(x-0)^2 + \frac{f'''(0)}{3!}(x-0)^3

studying_calc_real_analysis
Yes, but you can do more
Try to play with it, seems like you didn't give it a try yet
I mean, you know what f is
oh
okay give me a second
,, f(x) = \ln(x+1) \ f(0) = 0 \ f'(x) = (x+1)^{-1} \ f'(0) = 1 \ f''(x) = -(x+1)^{-2} \ f''(0) = -1 \ f'''(x) = 2(x+1)^{-3} \ f'''(0) = 2
is this correct?
,, \frac{\ln(1+x) - \left(f(0) + f'(0)(x-0)^1 + \frac{f''(0)}{2!}(x-0)^2 + \frac{f'''(0)}{3!}(x-0)^3\right)}{x^4} \ = \frac{\ln(1+x) - \left(0 + 1\cdot(x-0)^1 + \frac{-1}{2!}(x-0)^2 + \frac{2}{3!}(x-0)^3\right)}{x^4} \ = \frac{\ln(1+x) - \left((x)^1 + \frac{-1}{2!}(x)^2 + \frac{2}{3!}(x)^3\right)}{x^4} \ = \frac{\ln(1+x) - \left(x - \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{2x^3}{6}\right)}{x^4}

no idea how to do matrices at all, this was given as sub work but my teacher never taught us this
so do you know how to multiply a matrix by a scalar
ive only done adding and substracing a matrix
multiplying a matrix by a scalar (a number like 2, 5, -8) just means multiplying each entry by that scalar
okay thank you!
Do you have any idea about order of matrices? Just asking
You'll apply it everywhere when you go to matrix multiplication 😅

can anyone tell me WHY -3^4 equals a negative number
by convention we set the order of operations so that [ -3^4 = -(3^4) \ne (-3)^4 ]
it's - (3^4)
because -3^4 = -(3^4)
cloud
IF it were (-3)^4 it would be positive
You can also think of it being -1*3^4 = -3^4
Has your question been solved?
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
-2/3, 2/3
So this is wrong
and for that you'd need () around the -1
without them, you're getting the wrong signs

the magnitude is 5 roor 5
yes
normal vector divided by its magnitude
what i said
yes
antiparalle to AB
yes
its the same thing?
yes
i havent done matrices
so 0 difference
include
if it asked me
the negative too
they are not the same
if thats what youre asking
but their direction is the same
the parallel of AB and the unit vector
yh
yh
notice how both these vectors are parallel
even tho one is i+j
and the other is 2i+2j
I got it
2:1
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
Yeah
im having a bit of trouble parsing it, and i was wondering if u could help elaborate on it
okay thank u
one sec
"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"

,rotate 270
question
for line 4
how did they factor out power of -11
when theres only -10
on the let side
from there
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
because ^9 is the lowest, and ^-11 is the lowest too
you need to take the Lowest exponent
-11 is lower than -10
how can u take -11 out of -10
(1-x^2)^-11 • (1-x^2) = (1-x^2)^-10
me neither it's a nasty exercise too

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

@torn jolt whats another way to write Y bar
sum of Y_i / n

good:
so now we have

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.
But I checked anyway
19.11 is right 
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
@mellow bone Has your question been resolved?
Thanks for checking but since I'm only a GCSE student can you explain more on how you would do the two equations and two unknown solves and how that would work to get you the height, if you can simplify
So I would probably divide equation 2 by equation 1, $$\frac{\tan{19}}{\tan{25}} = \frac{x-5}{y} \cdot \frac{y}{x}$$
TayBee
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
$\tan 19 = \frac{(x-5)\tan 25}{x}$
TayBee
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 🙏

i cant understand a question where i need to write an equivalent linear system where both equations have the same x and y coefficients
would you mind showing it?
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
Never heard of that tbh
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
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
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
i've seen this and unfortunately this is for college adimssion exam and way higher than the normal highschool standard here
no other way to solve it?
never seen the u' thing.
it is high school level
not here i mean
ik this because it only uses methods u wrote
i am not from the US
"Separate in 2 integrals" and "u-sub"
there is nothing more advanced than that going on here
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
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
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
these msgs
that message i replied to in particular should be a good hint for this problem though if needed i can explain more
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)

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
Try graphing it
consider what arctan represents, and what its domain and range might be
it's not
pi over 2 
so it's arctan(2)+pi/2
Inverse, not reciprocal

The perimeters of triangles AA1A2, BB1B2, and CC1C2 are 21 cm, 6 cm, and 73 cm, respectively. Calculate the perimeter of triangle ABC.
What have you tried?
And what can you say about these two lines
i honestly have no clue where to start i just marked that aa1 aa2 and so on are equal
same lenghti
So think of it like, C1M gets moved to there
Like you move C1M to C1T where T is the intersection point of the circle and the BC
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?
You rotate C1M to be on the big triangle
Same for C2M
And so on
Idk what you drew
C1M to C1T
t is a newq point yes?
Not really
I'm moving C1M to C1T because they are equal length
ah, disregard then
What did you draw?
bro idk i moved it
ohhhh I understand now
I think we need a paper and pen
All the black lines can be moved to their opposite blue line
Exactly
To the blue line closer to the circle
Just rotate the black line around till it's on the blue straight line

I'm having trouble understanding this proof
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
what is the definition of direct sum you are working with
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
that follows from this?
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
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
what if 1 and -1 are
I don't follow
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
ok, that was my question
thank you
