actually i cannot understand the last part
Okey
The vector space is finite-dimensional, so there exists a family {e1, ..., e2} such that V = span(e1, ..., en)
Is that ok ?
yes
From lemma 2.22, you then know that every linearly independant family of V has size <= n
Fine !
You are welcome !

guys is this true
how to figure out whether 7^9 is bigger or 9^7 is bigger
any trick or logic i should go by
here you could just get away by using the values of ln(7) and ln(9(
Here's a very common question that asks to compare a^b vs. b^a. We will use the calculus derivative of the function f(x)=x^(1/x) to find its maximum. It's a great practice for calculus 1 students.
This video is inspired by my old video e^pi vs. pi^e: https://youtu.be/SPHD7zmLVa8

can someone help me find the laplace transform of this function
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
@faint dock Has your question been resolved?
sorry
i am not sure how the formula is written
is it 4cos^2(t*H(3t)) ?
i think its $4(\cos^2(t))H(3t)$
Flappie
ok so i tried the shift property
so it would be 4/3 * L{cos^2(t)*H(3t)}(s/3)
correct?
is it ok now?
$\mathcal{L}{4(\cos^2(t))H(3t)}(s)=\mathcal{L}\left{4\left(\frac12 (1+\cos(2x)\right)H(3t)\right}(s)$
Flappie
no
$=2\mathcal{L}{H(3t)+\cos(2x)H(3t)}(s)$
Flappie
you need to simplify it a bit more before you start doing stuff with it
this is all done using the laplace transform properties
(and trig formula)

Would anyone happen to know how to draw these two separate regions?
According to the answer it should look like this
That phi is less than 30° but greater than 0°, what does that look like in a), if someone could draw in the image?
@obsidian lodge Has your question been resolved?
@obsidian lodge Has your question been resolved?
Thanks, that makes sense.
If phi starts at 10°, and ends at 45°, how do we end up with the graph in b)? I can tell it needs to be in the first quadrant, but no clue what characteristics it'd give, such as the one pointed to by the red arrow. It seems to be diamond shaped 
Phi is measuring the angle from positive z going clockwise
@ashen crescent
Is the intuition correct here
The 45° would be the edge, pointed to by the right arrow
Not sure why we return to 10° though 🤔
Like that?
Okay, but it is hard to tell where the 10° is shown
Yeah that’s true
This is how it would look if you only consider a cross section in the first quadrant of the yz plane
Interesting, but do you know why it oscillates between 10° and 45°?
Like it's 45° the first bottom half
Then it switches to going to 10°
What do you mean oscillates
Is the figure 35° all the way here?
That would be 45
Okay I think I understand what it would look like if it was a full circle
I just saw it wrong
By oscillate I meant that it has a shape of diamond
Like it goes one direction then changes to another direction midway
Consider that diamond corner
But I realize that's not what this figure is anyway
It's all points between 10° and 45°
But could you help me understand how we know x, y, z can be drawn with the constraint on r? 0≤r≤5.
I've drawn out where the 5's are, but I don't see how the figures even touch it or get close it.
@ashen crescent
It doesn’t get close because of the constraint on phi
For a, phi goes to 30 degrees from positive z
If it continued to 90 degrees, it would reach the spots where you marked the radius of 5 and would look like a hemisphere
@obsidian lodge Has your question been resolved?
@ashen crescent If we are not using the plot they did in a), how would you draw it?
For example, this is what I had in mind
For 0<=theta<=45
But I am not sure how to draw the top if my drawing is wrong
I’m not sure what you mean
@ashen crescent is this drawing correct
Do you mean when swapping theta and phi?
@ashen crescent Yes
I might be mixing up theta and phi
But here I mean the angle between z and r is 45°
With that in mind, is the drawing correct
Its slightly wrong
||feels like a hit or miss ||
Since the radius is 5 then the top will be curved and the end of the ‘cone’ will hover over 2.5 mark
I am not sure what you mean by “the top” (1) and “end of the cone” (2), could you draw over my image and show what you mean with the color red for (1) and orange for (2) ? @ashen crescent
Ignore (2), that was wrong
But notice how the red curves round into a sphere, whereas yours looks more like the orange one
@ashen crescent I don’t understand
Maybe it's just me, but the black line at the top here makes it look like the top is supposed to be flat
And my black is supposed to be your orange?
I might be slow at responding bc I’m painting my house
your black should be the red part (within the bounds of course)
Hmm
What I intended to achieve with my black was just the silhouette of the figure
But I guess the silhouette also encompasses the curvature of your red
So your criticism is that my black is not curved enough, thereby giving the impression that the top surface is just flat with no slant?
I can see how you figure it should be the way you described, so since we are not employing the entire 0 to 90 degree interval, we need to make the top surface slanted to indicate that the radius is … long? Idk @ashen crescent
the top surface is curved because of the restriction x^2 + y^2 + z^2 <= 5^2
Ok so the radial distance creates the curvature, got it.
But in this image, what says we're not allowed to create a straight line (your curved red line)? As long as we've a radial distance that's 5, right?
Like this green line?
Sorry if I'm dragging this out, I could return to this later but I am doing multivariate calculus and don't know how important grasping this will be for later stages of the course.
a radial distance of 5 will create the red line
the green line doesn't have a radial distance of 5 in the mid section, only on the end points
So you're saying eevery point on the red line maintains a constant radial distance r=5 from the origin, satisfying the equation 𝑥^2 + 𝑦^2 + 𝑧^2 = 25?
Although I'll admit that I don't know how to tell that "the midsection has a radial distance of 5 from the origin". Are those, as opposed to the green line, those (x, y, z) pairs that are ≤ 25?
yes this is true
if you get a string of 5cm, anchor one end and rotate the other end, it will trace out the red line

hello
I’m trying to figure out this and I can’t do it
(h o f)(0) is the same thing as h ( f ( 0 ) )
as in
you figure out what f(0) is
and plug that into h
and figure out what h outputs
But I don’t know what f0 is
You get 0
so I take the 0 from the bottom and multiply it by the top?
yes
so f(0) = 1
and you want h(f(0))
you now know that's the same thing as h(1)
what's h(1)?
yes, they gave you h(z)
Hold on
you want h(1)
yes
Alright so then what do I do with the -5
oh W
make sure you go back and understand how we got that
because it looks like you weren't sure if we were done with -5 or if we had more to do
they gave you f(z) and h(z), you want to find h(f(0))
to figure that out, you first figure out what f(0) is
and then plug that into h
and then whatever you get from that is your answer
you work from the inside to the outside
Where did they give us this
f(z) and h(z) are above the problem, they asked you to find (h o f)(0) but that notation is the same thing as h(f(0))
same thing, you'd find f(-2) first
you have a table, that first table tells you what f spits out when you input certain x
The certain x is -2 right
-2
great, now that output is f(-2)
and then you want h(f(-2))
so what does h give you when you input f(-2) which is -2?
2
there's your answer
Oh that was easy
should be lol either they give you the function itself or a table or a graph, and you just work from the inside out to find values
Alright now I got a graph
My choices are -7 -5 0 and 2
I think it’s 0
How do I figure it out
ok I was wrong it’s not 0
Ayy it was -5
But how does one get that answer
I’m not sure where to look
the pink curve is h
Yeah
figure out what the y coordinate on that curve is when the x coordinate is 1
that represents h(1)
-1?
look again
Not right at 0 it’s a little off
Alright
i'm talking about right here
oh that’s the X axis
yes, and when you move 1 step to the right on the horizontal axis
to x = 1
your function has a y value of 0
what that tells you is that h(1) = 0
you repeat this process for g(h(1)) = g(0)

why was this equation used
that's the mid point formula
can u elaborate?
Like why we use that formula or how its derived ?
given two points $(x_0,y_0)$ and $(x_1,y_1)$; the mid point is $(\frac {x_0+x_1}{2}, \frac{y_0+y_1}{2})$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
so you don't need the derivation ?
no but how are values subtitusted
wait i dont understand the derivation
can u give it?
no
between two points on the xy plane
wait
nvm
misunderstood the question
just the distance between them /2
so st/2?
yes
that's the midpoint formula in one dimension
what is the midpoint formula in 1d
$\frac{x_0 +x_1}{2}$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
how did we get this equation from that formula?
can you ping helpers, I have some work to do

what method do i need to know inorder to solve this?
you could probably do this using limits
if (log_2(n))^3 is smaller than n when n gets big, that means that the function (log_2(n))^3 / n goes to 0 as n goes to infinity

Can someone please explain how the highlighted part holds true?
Convergence here means every open set containing the limit point also contains a point of the sequence.
This is a very simple example that shows the sequence b,b,b,b,b,b,b,.... obvioustly converges to b
But notice that every open set that contains a also contains b, namely the sets {a,b} and {a,b,c}
so this sequence also converges to a
(and the same argument works for c
I see, thanks! Interesting!

uh well i thought of factorizing here
do you know what the digamma function is?
wdym by partial fractions
there exist some A, B, C, st. A/4k² + B/6k + C/2 equal the part inside the sum
write it as the sum or difference of two terms of the form 1/(k+a) and 1/(k+b)
that's not how a series works
1/n as n goes to infinity approaches nothing finite, 1/n² does.
i honestly hate theses telescoping sums, cuz its so hard to think what the terms will be
im stuck now 😭
1/(2k+1)-1/(2(k+1)) I think?
in general, first factor the denominator
in this case, 4k^2 + 6k + 2 = 2(2k^2 + 3k + 1) = 2(x+1)(2x+1)
right
so you know you're gonna end up with something of the form A/(x+1) + B/(2x+1)
oohh that makes sense
so you just solve for A and B by plugging in two values of x so you get two equations, two unknowns
so this works for general questions too?
only for ones where partial fractions are useful
in this case it's gonna be a telescoping sum
so definitely useful
yea this is kind of a general technique/trick for this class of problems
also is it coming as ln2 then?
no like i got this right
then plugging for k =0,1 and all
im getting
1 - 1/2
then
1/3 - 1/4
then
1/5 - 1/6
and then i need to sum it up
so
1 - 1/2 + 1/3 - 1/4....
this result is log 2 right
oh yep
but yea your work is right
thannk you
sure, cheers

is it correct to say that this function is non integrable because sinx/x^2 tends to infinity when x goes to 0 from the right side?
that fact doesn't automatically imply it's not integrable
for example 1/sqrt(x) goes to infinity as x->0+, but it's still integrable
(in the vicinity of 0, not the tail)

ransik
first there are some bad practices here
you shouldnt remove zero rows during elimination, just keep them in
also we're only putting coords into the matrix, there should be no right side of zeros bc we're not solving a system
lets recall this
$v_1,\dots,v_n$ are LI if and only if $\m{v_1 & \dots & v_n}$ has a pivot in every column
RokettoJanpu
whatever vectors we're checking become the columns, there should be no extra column of 0s
im not gonna go thru the elimination, thats just computational
,w rref[[1,1,1],[1,-1,0],[2,0,1],[0,-2,-1]]
yep
we need a base so heres another fact to recall
pivot rows form a basis of the rowspace (span of the rows)
so what we can do is put the coords as rows instead and apply the above
you must do the row ops yourself later but i can get the result now
,w rref[[1,1,2,0],[1,-1,0,-2],[1,0,1,-1]]
well what im using is this
pivot rows form a basis of the rowspace (span of the rows)
so the first two rows of the result, when we undo the coords, give a base of S
yes

are they basically saying both at the same time here?
~(p <-> q) is true when p <-> q is false
~(p <-> q) is false when p <-> q is true
but how do they know p and q have different truth values?
this doesn't make sense to me. the only way p -> q is false is when p is true and q is false
but otherwise it's always true
'p ⟺ q' being true means both 'p ⟹ q' and 'q ⟹ p' are true at the same time.
but both p and q could be false to evaluate to true as well
when it comes to p -> q and q -> p
'p ⟺ q' has the value true when both p and q are false, so that doesn't contradict anything.
oh so it's talking about the actual evaluation, "true"
not the values of p or q
OK i think that makes sense now
both values, p and q, have to be either true or false to evaluate to true bidirectionally
The answer key is basically saying that 'p ⟺ q' is only only true when p and q have the same truth value, therefore 'p ⟺ q' is only false when p and q doesn't have the same truth value, i.e. have different truth values.

'p ⟺ q' is only only true when p and q have the same truth value
that would have been a much better way to word it in the answer key
going at it only one way is confusing af
but i still don't understand the answer key
didn't we just say they can't have different values to evaluate to true both ways?
but is the proposition also true when p <-> q is true?
what you said here makes sense to me:
'p ⟺ q' is only only true when p and q have the same truth value
but this doesn't
'¬(p ⟺ q)' means the negation of 'p ⟺ q', so when 'p ⟺ q' is true '¬(p ⟺ q)' is false and when 'p ⟺ q' is false '¬(p ⟺ q)' is true.
could the answer key have been rewritten like this?
The proposition ~p(p<->q) is true when p<->q is false, or when p<->q is true
hmmm
are you using a truth table to see this?
It's the literal definition of negation.
oh right
'¬(p ⟺ q)' is not true when 'p ⟺ q' is true.
so it should maybe say:
The proposition ~p(p<->q) is true when p<->q is false
and
The proposition ~p(p<->q) is false when p<->q is true
just to be extra clear
but i guess that's implied with practice
it's just negation, that's it
I think I'm getting mixed up here thinking somehow I gotta use DeMorgan's law and distribution of negation
nothing like that is needed here to prove it
I agree that saying ¬(p ⟺ q) is true only when p ⟺ q is false would have been more clear.
or just mentioning the negation rule. nothing to do with "if, then"
But a proof is about communication. If we had to reduce everything to its bare bones, a simple proof would be pages long (trust me, I've seen one). Sometimes they leave things to the reader because the author deem them clearly enough implied, which seems to have been the case here.
It gets easier to bridge the gaps the more proofs you get through.
but i guess the part that confuses me about this, when it comes to negation of "if, then" is that 3/4 chance for it to be true, 1/4 chance for it to be false
when you negate "if, then" it's still same odds for both? 3/4 chance for it to be true, 1/4 chance for it to be false
In the end, if ever in doubt, you can always just construct a truth table.
do you know what i'm getting at by odds for "if, then"?
3 out of 4 it will be true
1 out of 4 it will be false
TT=T
TF=F
FT=T
FF=T
if you negate this, it's still the same I guess?
FF=T
FT=T
TF=F
TT=T

i'm going through a basic workbook and trying to apply by myself. if f = v(t), then could i say f = 1v(t) for this? t is an arbitrary value. not actually a question, but wondered if i understood the topic
Well it would depend which region you're in
Does f equal this picture?
And then v is some other function?
yes
Ok cool
and t is an input (?)
i'm self studying to understand and teach myself math, not really connected with syllabus
Yea this is correct
What you would say is
When t is between certain values then,
f(t) = v(t)
or
f(t) = 2*v(t)
or
f(t) = -2*v(t)
why do you have t on f? f already equals to v(t), so i cant comprehend its necessity
thank you for all the answers
oh
i got it

Hello everyone. I am learning about eigenvectors and eigenvalues in linear algebra, and I recently received some feedback from a quiz that I'm trying to understand. I have the following matrix A, where:
[
\begin{bmatrix}
\cos\theta & -\sin\theta \
\sin\theta & \cos\theta
\end{bmatrix}
]
RiverineDolphin
Now, I know how to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A without any problems. They are:
\begin{align}
\mathrm{Det(A-I\lambda)} &= \begin{vmatrix}
\cos\theta -\lambda & -\sin\theta \
\sin\theta & \cos\theta - \lambda
\end{vmatrix} \
&= (\cos\theta-\lambda)^2 + \sin^2\theta = 0 \
&\implies \lambda_1 = \cos\theta - i\sin\theta \
&\implies \lambda_2 = \cos\theta + i\sin\theta
\end{align}
RiverineDolphin
And their corresponding eigenvectors:
\begin{align}
v_1 &= \begin{bmatrix}i \ 1\end{bmatrix} \
v_2 &= \begin{bmatrix}-i \ 1\end{bmatrix}
\end{align}
RiverineDolphin
However, when I submitted my response, I received the following feedback:
Where could I be wrong?
Eigenvectors aren't unique
Try plugging in their x1 and x2
I'm sorry, I'm not sure if I understand.
Are you saying that my eigenvectors are wrong, because they are not unique?
Find Ax1 and Ax2
No I'm not saying yours are wrong
If v is an eigenvector then so is cv for and constant c
Oh. So in this case, if my eigenvectors were v_1 and v_2, the quiz was expecting them in the form of cv_1, and cv_2
Where c is... i?
Maybe!
Yikes! Help me understand a bit more about eigenvectors, please
This really is all there is to know for this problem
Do this
Right now my conceptual understanding is that eigenvectors are vectors that do not change direction, when the matrix acts upon them
I'm sorry if I'm not seeing it yet
Which x_1 and x_2?
Like, how should I set up the problem?
I guess you need to know the definition
An eigenvector v of a matrix A satisfies
Av = (constant) * v
Usually constant = lambda
So plug in v = x1
x1 here
Oh, the x_1 from there
Okay, one moment. Let me compute this.
Okay, I got the following
[\begin{bmatrix}
\cos\theta & -\sin\theta \
\sin\theta & \cos\theta
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
1 \
i
\end{bmatrix} =
\begin{bmatrix}
\cos\theta - i\sin\theta \
\sin\theta - i\cos\theta
\end{bmatrix}]
RiverineDolphin
This looks correct, right?
Because the result on the RHS is [1, i] multiplied by the eigenvalue
So that is an eigenvector.
And as your lambda1
Yes, x2 fulfills the identity too
Okay, so now I know why I was marked down on that mark
Am I correct to understand that for a given matrix
It has only a few eigenvalues
But it has infinite eigenvectors?
Yes
Ah, gotcha.
Because this
The feedback implies I missed a final mark
Of the choices, I know the last value isn't correct, i.e. the eigenvectors are not (\sin\theta \plusminus i \cos\theta)
RiverineDolphin
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
But I'm not sure if the second option is correct.
What does it mean, for "eigenvectors are obtained from ((\lambda - \cos\theta)x_1 + (\sin\theta)x_2 = \ldots)
RiverineDolphin
Solve their equations for x1 and x2 to see if you get eigenvectors
Oh, okay
I will do it now.
@gritty rose I am not sure at all if I got it correct
Was I supposed to do a scalar multiplication followed by a matrix addition?
Afterwards... do I substitute for lambda_1, lambda_2, and expect to get a eigenvector?
All I got was a mess.
Oh, are they talking about components of x?
Ah, nevermind, I think I got it

can someone help me with linear algebra
true or false
False
@fathom ore Has your question been resolved?
2 rows means 2 equations
Not every equation must mention every variable in the columns
So if you think about some simple 2 equation systems you might be able to come up with a useful example
Oh actually i just realized they specified augmented
So as an augmented it's actually just 2 variables
It is possible but not always true
So check the question carefully to answer
If they're simply asking generally it's false
If they're asking if it's possible to happen then it's true

thank u
yea i also asked chatgpt and it said that too
gotta be a typo unless im missing something

what would two trends for this be?
guess
uhh as male height increases male weight increases, and as female height decreases weight decreases
or is it asking like if its a strong positive trend
@lime ether is that right?
so for 2 trends can I say males have a strong positive trend and females have a moderate positive trend?
or do I say something else?
yea i don’t know how strong i’d say it is
you can play with your words
moderate
fairly
relatively
etc
what matters is that it’s a positive correlation
so for 2 trends could I say that females have a moderate positive trend and males also have a moderate positive trend?
would those count for the 2 trends?
yea sure

Q. How can one infer that which is the smallest pythagorean triplet whose largest number is greater than a given number, say 17?
The original problem I had to solve was like this:
Find a triplet (a,b,c) where c>a,b and a>12, b>12
So we have to find min_c > 17
Where a,b,c are integers
yes
And 12^2 + 12^2 = 288 which is closer to 17^2
So....
Bro, i genuinely dont know, so insteand of saying i am an unhelpful idiot, be nice
@torn jolt you can
maybe
use
AM > GM
do you know it ?
yih
since its a pythegorean triplet c^2 = a^2 + b^2
(a^2 + b^2) > 2ab for distinct a , b is true for distinct positive a , b
right ?
yes
right
because (a-b)^2 > 0
so c^2 > 2ab
c<a+b
idk what now
yeah since c , a b all are positive
c > sqrt(2ab)
so you can obtain C
which would be the nearest integer greater than sqrt(2ab)
if i am right
so c>sqrt2 * 12
yes
which is approx
,w root2 * 12
we would get 17
as the answer
wll
well
(15,8,17)
but i said b>12
but this is a numerical method so its not the best
it uses approximations
yes
its wrong
my bad
thanks
I guess I just have to learn the triplets

What am I doing wrong? I don’t understand my mistake here
it's actually f/g then f'g - fg' not fg' - f'g
so prob off by a minus
I also noticed this when you did product rule, you start with the inner function
but the issue is it works with product rule cause there is a plus so it's commutative (a+b = b+a), but with minus you will be off by a factor of (-1) because it's like trying (a-b = b-a)
