,w extrema x^7-y^6-z^7 subject to x^2-y^2+z=0
How do I do it mathematically
if wolfram is correct your computation should lead to contradiction
But lioke
hoiw do i prove thius
casuse im stuck rn
you have two pairs of ors so thats 4 cases to check
you might get smth by plugging each case into the constraint
Could u remind me on ors
Are those the cases I listed?
lets say u get this
x=0 or x=1
y=1 or y=2
the four cases are
x=0, y=1
x=0, y=2
x=1, y=1
x=1, y=2
I see
So case 1 x=0, y=0
Case 2 x=0 y = -y^4 + lambda
Case3 = x= 7x^5 - 2lambda y = 0
Case 4 x = 7x^5 - 2lambda y= -y^4 + lambda
y=0 in case 3
What do I do with the case of -7z^6 = lambda
Can I just replace cases 1-4 with that or would that make it more messy?
thats not a case
if ur eqn isnt connected to an or then its always true
so the z eqn and the constraint are always true
btw i think u made an error
With the set up ?
ye
Wdym
I’m kinda confused on how to do that tho since 7z^6 = lambda
Sorry if I’m misunderstanding smt
my point is the constraint and z eqn are always true so u might have to use both in each case to get contradiction

I can't understand proofs
a - set is orthagonal
b - vectors are independent
so they want to proof that
a -> b
but they get that
!b -> !a (vectors are NOT independent then set is NOT orthagonal)
how this holds to the first statement? (ignore scribles)
(a implies b) is generally equivalent to (!b implies !a)
If b is true whenever a is true, it is never the case that b is false but a is true; therefore, if b is false(that is, !b), then a cannot be true(!a)
indeed this fact is known as "any implication is equivalent to its contrapositive"
leading to the method of proof by contrapositive, which sometimes looks a lot like proof by contradiction

Let a b c 3 real numbers, a function f(x)=ab^(x/2)+c
We know that f(2)=5
f(5)=2000
Find f(7)
Anyone know how to solve this ?
Honestly i'm skibidi lost as hell
do you mean f(x) = a * b^(x/2) + c?
that's a new one
yes
"skibidi lost as hell" is a very ohio turn of phrase
yh for reel
i have a feeling there might not be enough info here...?
oh really ?
3 unknowns, but only 2 equations
f(x) = a * b^(x/2)?
yes

I finally had my exam today. It went decently well. Thank you for all the help I got this last week.
Can someone discuss with me if my answers are correct?
One sec
I marked the options out really lightly. Can someone verify if they are correct?
Class 12 maths boards exam?
Tag me please
@torn jolt Has your question been resolved?
Yeah
Would it be possible for you to help?
yeah it is correct
Ok. Please wait a moment
i just went through it, its correct
wait sorry why isnt 9 C
send next? wdym?
i think they have multiple pages lol
Next page
yeah
It’s not definite integrals. It’s area. Which cannot be negative
take the integral of x^2
Is this correct too?
is it india?
Yes
central exam??
Yippee
for us most of this was IGCSE, so it was pretty easy
But is this JEE?
well done thou
No no
This is just an exam, so that allows you to “pass” high school level mathematics?
No worries, thank you so much for discussing so many questions
I’ll close this channel and open another one afresh so that the newer questions get pinned
👍🏽
btw r u guys allowed to use a calculator for this
Can I DM you for discussing the longer non-MCQ type answer?
It’s perfectly fine if you don’t want that.
I appreciate the help either way:)
No calculators
👍🏽sure
Thank you so much:))
But hardly calculation type questions
that makes it more fun, but i really need to go so bye

how do i find x
idk how to find the last angle
maybe i need to do a lil algebra or something
42 + x + (138-x) = 180
i dont think i can do anything with that
yes
So angle ebc = 180-42?

Given $F: [a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$ that is $C^1$ (continuous, differentiable once), with F(a)=A, F(b)=B, prove:
$\int_a^b \vert \vert F'(t)\vert \vert dt \geq\vert \vert A - B \vert \vert$ using Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.

Hi. I'll need some help with this.
btw you should use \Vert or \| to get double bars
compare: $\vert\vert F'(t)\vert\vert$ vs. $\Vert F'(t) \Vert$

Given $F: [a, b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$ that is $C^1$ (continuous, differentiable once), with F(a)=A, F(b)=B, prove:
$\int_a^b \norm{F'(t)} dt \geq \norm{A - B}$ using Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.
Wild123
Now, how may I employ the cauchy-schwarz? I think it has something to do with $\norm{F'(t)}$, I'll write it explicitly
Wild123
maybe as a first step its good to write the squared ineq?
And then I think I have a property that $(\int_a^b f(t) dt)^2 \leq \int_a^b f^2(t) dt$? Or what do with the squared integral
Wild123
@little prism Has your question been resolved?
i dont think so, plus we're talking about functions to R^n so these things should be inside norm
we can start with $\norm{B-A}=\norm{F(b)-F(a)}=\norm{\int_a^bF'(t)dt}$
ロケットジャンプ
now justify $RHS\le\int\norm{F'}$

consider the prime factorization of 2023
,, \sum_{k = 1}^n k^3 = \frac 14 n^2 (n + 1)^2
kizzyyy
7 x 17²
kizzyyy
must contain at least one 7 and one 17 right?
Yea
do you have any ideas on how that translates?
or what sub-problem you can now work on?

HelpMe
Oh wow I have no idea how to use this bot
,, \sum_{k = 1}^n k^3 = \frac 14 n^2 (n + 1)^2 = 17^2 x 7 x k?
HelpMe
well we decided to look only at (n(n+1)/2) for simplicity sake
Ok tq
so just 17 * 7 is sufficient
Uh ok 👍
yeah n(n+1) = 0 (mod 238) sounds good
it's easier to work with products, no?
anyway do you know sieving? like chinese remainder theorem?
Yes
then u should be able to solve the congruence
So 34?

This is from Gilbert Strang's Calculus Volume 2.
I have read limits must be finite. If the expression being evaluated approaches infinity, then the limit does not exist.
So,
Is the above incorrect?
And if so, how am I supposed to write this in the exam?
but how would i write this step
how would i show it approaches infinity
Can I say as lim t --> 0+ (1/t^2) approaches infinity, the limit does not exist?
wait no
ok so this textbook has it wrong if this is where you got this work from
it goes to -infinity
Since (1/t^2) approaches infinity as t approaches 0+ , the limit does not exist
but all that matters when it comes to integrals is if it's finite or not
is this a mathematically valid way to write the conclusion?
yea
gotcha, thank you!
anytime

Btw I wanna ask why can we js take out the 17 fron the equation wouldn't that change the awnser a bit?
if 17 * 7 divides (n(n+1)/2) then 17^2 * 7 must divide (n(n+1)/2)
if that's what you're asking
Wait so couldn't we js increase it instead like instead of mod 2023 we js make it mod 2023k and it becomes 7 x 17² x k and we just add 7k into this making it 7² x 17² x k² so then it becomes n(n+1)/2 cus from eariler it still was squared
increase what
i'm confused
Like yk how it's (n(n+1)/2)² = 0 mod 2023 right
So then uh since 2023 = 7 x 17 can we just increase 2023 by 7 so it becomes 7² x 17²
u can pose the question this way, sure
but why?
for 2023 to divide 1/4 (n)^2(n+1)^2, you want that 1/4 (n^2)(n+1)^2 to contain 2 17's and 1 copy of 7. Thus, you have to pick an n such that you have at least one copy of 7 cuz otherwise n^2 wouldn't contain at least 1 copy of 7
i mean u can "increase" if u like but that seems counterproductive for no apparent gains

With CAS I got $n=\frac{-6\pm2\sqrt{3}}{1}$
UCYT5040
-6 and +-2 are not relatively prime
i dont see how I could manipulate this fraction to get relatively prime numbers
i guess its also least value of n so not +-2, just -2
@silver pecan Has your question been resolved?
so i checked the answer key and yeah -4 is the right answer (which -4=-6-2+3+1)
but is there an error in this question since -6 and 2 are not relatively prime?
or maybe it means that -6, -2, 3, and 1 share no common factors
?

I dont think the radii are correct
😔
let me help you with a drawing!
These two are the radii right?
That would be awesome!
So big R is the problem
yes
It has to be something + 8, right?
not quiet
let me try to demonstrate why
or wait
hmm
the issue is
y^(1/2) is at most 2^(1/2) so 2^(1/2)+8 is something like 9.14
at most
but your radius R actually grows till 10 units
like you already marked it yourself down
it can become up to 10 units long
so you are missing out on a tiny bit volume
Oh.
in order to avoid this you actually thinkg a bit differently
you basically always subtract the function from the line
8-y^1/2?
the line is at x = 10
Ye
oooooooo I seee
let me try to make it visually more clear
the red is 10 long and you subtract the blue lengths (the function values) then you end up with the radius, the distance between line of revolution and function
Ohhhh yeah that makes it way clearer
Thank you!!
Wait but I just tried it and it says it's wrong
can you tell vertically when your region starts and ends
0 to 4 right?
yes
😔 it's still wrong
,w pi * Integrate[(10-y^(1/2))^2-(10-2)^2, {y,0,4}]
did you get 136pi/3?
OHHHH I got why I was wrong
I didn't know you had to (10-2)^2
Wait but that's the same as 8^2
I didn't - I got 1372pi/2 for some reason
yea you need to subtract
imagine like
you subtract the smaller region from the bigger one to get the region in between and thus the volume in between
That makes sense!
i can't draw it 😭
something like this
No that's okay! I got what you were saying 😅
ok nice!
but now!
it's like removing a cylinder from a vulcano
I seeeeee
That metaphor actually makes it make so much more sense 😅

Why are we allowed to just "cancel" common factors when taking a limit? What is the "rigorous" reason? It seems intuitevly correct, but why is it correct rigorsoutly?
because youre never exactly 'at' x_0 the factor is always non-zero and so can cancel without issue
x_0 is not in the set, thus, we can cancel the terms
the limit $\lim_{x\to x_0}$ is always $\lim_{\substack{x\to x_0 \ x\neq x_0}}$

how does this work im confused
xln(2x+1) + 1/2 ln(2x+1) = (x+1/2) ln(2x+1) = 1/2 (2x+1) ln(2x+1)
Try to combine like terms.
lemme work it out on paper one sec\
Are we deriving this?
no this is clearly algebra
makes no sense after getting thru the hard part of the question
Yh like this
expand left side or factor right
Let's only focus on $x\ln(2x+1)+\frac{1}{2}\ln(2x+1)$. Try to factor out $\ln(2x+1)$.
mathisfun
mathisfun
what steps to take to go from the green portion to the blue

Well
If we factor the $\ln(2x+1)$ we get $\ln(2x+1)\qty(x+\frac12)$

i tried doing this question, and i done it wrong, i thought the way i did it would be correct, can someone explain the answer sheet answer pls??
two roots are given
so we can write it in factored form
the rest is not clear on your work to me
you can read the two roots, yea?
i thought by subbing in 2 points on the graph, then solving simultaneously to find a and b would be
yes
You plug in the y-intercept into the factored equation
sure but the function has 3 unknowns
so you can do 3 simultaneous
if you want
however the solution is easier, we actually can write it in one unknown only
That takes out the x and y values so you can solve for a
so id have to do equation 1 - equation 2 then equation 2 - equation 3
to find 2 equations
then solve simultaneously
if i wanted to
but i could also factorise
which is easier ye??
youd have to do something
as the solution does yes
as long as you believe it is valid to write it this way
a(x+2)(x-8)
hm??
i mean
there are a lot of things you can do to solve a 3x3 system
they are all harder than the solution you showed

(this is from my determing volume from slicing homework)
I feel like I have to use the washer method
(Don't tell me you have to use integration...)
Ye
(||You're fucking kidding me||)
That's what I thought too 😅
The thing is I'm confused about the terminology. It's a ball with a cylinder drilled through it right?
Not a empty round ball inside the ball?
But if I use the washer method, won't I get an empty round ball inside the ball?
No
You’d use some line to represent the hole and the half circle formula to get a half circle
Then you washer or shell
Lowkey, this problem is devious. At least you can double check easily. <— (I rescind my previous statement)
it's a good opportunity to make sure you're doing the integration right bc you can check with normal geometry
actually this isn't that easy with normal geometry
Wait but what axis would I be revolving this around?
it's just revolving this around the x axis
Oh okay. But like won't I get like half a ball? Usually when you like revolve it, you get like one plane right? Sorry if you don't get what I'm saying I don't know how to put it into words
Like half a 3d ball
No
hypotenuse = 14 and height = 8 in a right triangle, so base = ?
You get a ball with a hole
wait i don't see what you mean, you still have a spherical cap to deal with
Wait I get the half circle part but how would the hole be a line?
oh shit right
normally you revolve it all the way around (2π)
You integrate from line to circle, and ignore everything below line and above y=0

In the following figure, points A, B, C, D, E, F, G are in the plane, so that A, B, E, F are on the same line, as well as C, D, G, F. AB = BC = CA = BD = DE = EG = GF. What is the measure of angle ∠AFC?
hint: start from letting angle GFE = x
then find all the angles so that you eventually find angle CBA in terms of x

can someone help me solve this exercise?
,rccw
the instruction is to find the volume pf the area between the functions xy=1, y=0, x=1 and x=2 around the x=-1 axis
Split the integral into $\int_{-1}^1 \frac{1}{x}dx+\int_1^2\frac{1}{x}dx$
mathisfun
i have no idea what the limits in the integral are, whether i should substract or add that -1
wait why
like ik tge equation to find the volume
Because the area itself will be undefined if you don't
Note that $\int_{-a}^a f(x)dx=0$, for $f(-x)=-f(x)$
mathisfun
which is π* ∫(upper funcion)^2 - (lower function)^2
idk what the upper or lower functions are
but im not trying to find any area in the negative side of the x axis
What is distance from x=-1 to 1/x for x<0 and x>0?
sry im so lost
Then just let f(x)=1/|x| instead
Lots of ways you can go about this
the method i should be using is discs and rings
Yes
So think about rings (washers) you can use here if you let y=1/|x|
kk i think ill try to solve it from here
tysm
have a great night (or day)

trig sub problem
i do not even know how to start
completing the square requires you to add something to the other side of the equation so i have no idea how to do this
Let's just focus on $10x-x^2$. Note that we can rewrite this as $-(x^2-10x)$.
mathisfun
Now, what is the number we should add to make $x^2-10x$ a perfect square?
mathisfun
So, we have $10-x^2=-(x^2-10x+25-25)$.
mathisfun
uh 10x - x^2 on the left side but yes that makes sense
OH
SHIT
I JUST GOT THI

I think my book's solution for Question no 2 is wrong
The Slope of the tangent at that point is 3 so the slope of normal should be -1/3
But they didn't do that , I think they made a mistake ?

hi im having trouble understanding vector and scalar resolute when one vector is bigger than the other
like i know scalar resolute is just the magnitude of the shadow of one vector casted onto the other
like i know magnitude of vector n is the scalar resulte of a on b
but what happens if a is much bigger than b ?
you can think of it as the projection a makes onto the line vector b is on
like, extend b out from its tail and tip to go on infinitely, the scalar resolute is the projection a makes on this line
Ohhhh, is its like how much vector a goes in the direction of b rather than the vecor b itselff?
ohh
yeah
omgg wait this is good thank you so much
i was thinking about it wrong thank youu

Guys, i need help. The mark scheme says the solution is 0, pi/6, pi/2, and 5pi/6
but i only got pi/6 and 5pi/6
This is the answer to the previous question
@real silo Has your question been resolved?
the problem is you divided by the numerator
that is only okay when the numerator is not 0
what happens if the numerator is 0?
then the equation is true since 0 = 0
so you missed out on solutions

Do we solve this to see if the numerator is 0 or not 0?
if 0
But how to solve this?
then you can use
Then you can square both sides
and solve the quadratic equation in sinθ

how do they know
You're asking how they know the angle highlighted in blue is also 20 right?
Yea basically
where does fg sin 20 come from?
where does dat force come from
I mean I haven't seen the full question
oh nvm i see it
But Fb sin 20 gives the vertical component of the force
And Fb cos 20 gives the horizontal component ig
oh ok one more question
how does total force/mass give u the acceleration

Greetings! I request help to understand an Improper Integral problem.
The problem: (0 to inf) sin^2(x) dx
What I need help with:
At the near end, the problem ends up becoming:
1/2 (inf - 0) - 1/2 ( [sin(2 * inf)/2] - [sin(2 * 0)/2] )
--> (inf/2 - 0/2) - (sin(inf)/4 - sin(0)/4)
--> (inf - 0) - (inf - 0)
--> inf - inf
The problem I am having is with the value of [sin(2 * inf)/2].
The way I see it, I am supposed to change the inf - inf to some 0/0 or inf/inf form to trigger L'Hospital's Rule, but there's... no feasible way for me to do that.
According to a step-by-step helper, the end result would be equal to infinity. But it does not explain how it concludes that fact. According to my classmates, [sin(2 * inf)/2] is considered undefined. I am unsure why, but apparently that would make it (inf - und), therefore making the end result infinity, and concluding that it is divergent.
Can someone help explain what [sin(2 * inf)/2] is supposed to be? What is its value? Thank you 🙂
@faint drift Has your question been resolved?
lim x-> inf sinx doesnt exist but u can say that sin(x) will be something finite as it ranges from -1 to 1 . so inf- (something finite) is still inf
you can also just look at the area under the curve sin^2 x
So because sin(inf) has a defined range of -1 to 1, regardless of if I do inf - (1) or inf - (-1), the end result is still infinite? Did I comprehend your answer correctly? o>o
yeah
Alright then. And linking that thought, why does sin(inf) not exist?
because it doesnt approach any specific value
it oscillates between -1 and 1
you cant tell which it will be in that interval of [-1,1]

Hello, I am trying to prove that the sum of inverse square is $\frac{\pi^2}{6}$.
For this I am given $f(z)=\frac{cotan(z)}{z^2}$.
We directly see two poles, one at $0$ and one at $n\pi$.
It is straight forward to compute the residue at each poles,
$Res(f(z),0) = -\frac{1}{3}$
$Res(f(z),n\pi) = \frac{1}{n^2\pi^2}$
So, we see that we only need to prove that the contour integral vanishes, for that we can take a square contour of length (2N+1) centered at the origin.
Now my thought was to use the estimation lemma :
$\left| \int_\gamma f(z) dz \right|\leq Ml(\gamma)$
So $l(\gamma)=4(2N+1)$.
But now I'm stuck at finding $M:= sup_{z\in\gamma} \left| f(z) \right| $
Could someone help me figure this out ?
Lucas
parametrise your contour e.g. z = x + ai could parametrise the top and bottom edges with the right a value
then find the sup under each of these contours and then take the largest of those
maybe theres another, perhaps better way, but thats how id try it
@wary pollen Has your question been resolved?
If I parametrised then I could just directly prove that the 4 sides vanishes right ? No need to find the sup then. But the thing is that this takes a while and I assume there must be a faster way to do it somehow ?
well theres no guarantee that the parametrised integrals would be nice
whereas finding a sup is fairly straightforward
but if you wanna hold out for a better way then be my guest lmao
but how would you find a sup for one of the side ?
the problem I guess is the cotan(z)
cot(x + iy) = ( cot(x) cot(iy) - 1 ) / (cot(x) + cot(iy)) and cot(iy) = - i coth(y)
so just a bit of an algebra bash to do
Couldn't we just use the fact that when on the contour, it nevers encounters singularities and thus it is bounded ?
i dont know much CA but if you says thats a thing then sure
but is not your goal to show that M -> 0 as N -> inf
so you need to actually do some computation, no?
oh in fact N M -> 0 i suppose
Yes
I'm not too sure but If I write |f(z)| as
(For one of the sides)
[
|f(z)| = \left| \frac{e^{iz} + e^{-iz}}{(e^{iz} - e^{-iz}) z^2} \right|
]
Lucas
Where z is some parametrisation like (2N+1) (t-i) with t between -1 and 1
I can say x=(2N+1)t and y=(2N+1)
So
$|f(z)| = \left| \frac{e^{i(x+iy)} + e^{-i(x+iy)}}{(e^{i(x+iy)} - e^{-i(x+iy)}) (x+iy)^2} \right|$
Lucas
Now, If for large N, we will get
$|f(z)| \approx \left| \frac{e^{-ix+y}}{ - e^{-ix+y} (x+iy)^2} \right|$
Lucas
Lucas
If we go back to $\left| \int_\gamma f(z) dz \right|\leq Ml(\gamma)$
Lucas
and take the limit of N to infty on both side it would work I think ?
i would say you want some more rigour than just saying ~=
if you can chain some <= then yeah
(I'm a physics student x))
lmao

what is da question?
Give a pair (a,b) such that a neq = b neq = the expression
Also, a neq = the expression
a, b, c < Z+
I just want a pair, be it using any software.
Now.
okay what is c here
c = the expression
try a = 0 and b = -4 then
i mean really you could make a while loop on vscode with the constraints to find an arbitrary amount of pairs
Could just ask wolfram
@stuck loom Has your question been resolved?
I mean 0 is not a positive integer duh.
duh
duh
Neither is -4

Hello,
Why matrix multiplication is done in that specific way ( multiplying line by column ) ??
Multiplying two matrices represents applying one transformation after another.

convention, more or less. One could define matrix multiplication to be done row by row.
not at all
it's not just an arbitrary operation we defined, it follows from the fact that matrices represent linear transformations
and multiplication of matrices corresponds to composition of linear transformations
could that property not be preserved by either changing how we represent matrices or "flipping" the multiplication from row * column to column * row?
sure, but the operation itself isn't arbitrary
fair
that is to say it's not a computation we created for convenience, it falls out naturally
Read any relevant linear algebra textbook and you will see why.
can u name one
Linear Algebra Done Right by Axler. I'm currently reading on it.
I'd say try Introduction to Linear Algebra by Gilbert Strang, it motivates the ideas much better

i sketched the domain and figured that i can switch variables:
$=\int_0^1 dy \int_y^1 \arctan(y^2) dx = \int_0^1 (1-y)\arctan(y^2) dy$
artemetra
i can split this into two integrals, and the second one with y*arctan(y^2) is fine
are you sure thats the right new domain?
yes
it makes things so easy
i'll need to practice this then

i followed through and got a wrong answer 
let me write my solution
integral of arctan is not 1/(1+x^2)
lmao no that i know
just a guess
it's a good guess because i almost made that mistake
starting from the original integral:\
$=\int_0^1 dy \int_0^y \arctan(y^2) dx = \int_0^1 y \arctan(y^2) dy$\
Let $u=y^2$\
$\implies = 2 \int_0^1 \arctan(u) du = 2 \int_0^1 1\cdot \arctan(u) du = 2 \left[u \arctan(u)|_0^1 - \int_0^1 \frac{u}{u^2 + 1} du\right] = 2 \left[\frac{\pi}{4} - \int_0^1 \frac{u}{u^2 + 1} du\right]$
artemetra
Let $v=u^2$
$\implies = 2 \left[\frac{\pi}{4} - 2 \int_0^1 \frac{1}{v + 1} dv\right] = 2 \left[\frac{\pi}{4} - 2\ln(1+v)|_0^1] \right]= \frac{\pi}{2} - 4\ln(2)$
artemetra
,w pi/2 - 4 ln(2)

you did that twice
Oh yeah, at the start too lmao
so instead i should have $\frac{1}{2} \left[\frac{\pi}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\ln(1+v)|_0^1] \right]= \frac{\pi}{8} - \frac{1}{4}\ln(2)$

Hello, I wasn’t in class for a problem and was wondering how my teacher got this answer on the notes, I just need to know how she got -16 and 36.
so you understand everything up to and including the line x^2 + 20x - 576 = 0?
pulled a factorization out of thin air
or with some trial and error that's not shown here
i probably wouldn't have shyed away from QF here
or completing the square, which is probably better
actually
(x+10)^2 = 676
right from here
recognize 676 as 26^2 and get x+10=±26 instead of all this mess
oh i see
so for example on my hw i have 400 = (x+12)^2 it would be (x+30) and (x-10)
?
or -32 and 8 for the positive and negative ?
x+12=±20 is how i would have phrased it.
if you want a factorization for that one, it would look like (x+32)(x-8) = 0, but this is not really necessary to do
i think i will have to do the factorization just for my grades sake but thank you i get the concept now, it might be a dumb question but what’s the difference between an extraneous solution and a normal one ?
extraneous means it doesn't make sense for the problem as originally stated
such as when a variable representing a length comes out negative
