2?
yes
2(x+4)?
Ohhh I see
I’m confused sorry
I got 2x^2 + 16x + 32
Yes I got c value is 32 but it says the answer is 16

im confused
any clues
i got no idea what to do
tell me if this is right, multiply by B^2 then A^2
i would say just use AM GM for 4*a/b and b/a
$\frac{x+y}{2} \geq \sqrt{x y}$
tm
uses this inequality with well-chosen x and y values
AM = arithmetic mean.
GM = geometric mean
it simplify it very much
have you tried jut simplifying without am gm
nvm i give up
We can have ||(2a-b)²|| ???

Initially, only one elf is in a good mood (day 0). Every day, a cheerful elf has a chance to make a grumpy friend smile (and thus become cheerful) with probability p (not equal to 0). The elves form a complete graph, meaning every elf is friends with every other elf.
A grumpy elf becomes cheerful if at least one cheerful friend smiles at them. Importantly, an elf in a good mood can smile at multiple grumpy elves in the same day.
We define τ as the total number of days required until all n elves are cheerful. Compute E(τ).
I found some weird sum at the end by considering the variable giving the nb of days to go from k-1 cheerful elves to k cheerful elves, but Python simulations give me another result.
For p=1/2 and n=10, simulation gives 2.07 and formula gives 9 and decimals...
@willow geode Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
if i udnerstand it correctly, for each happy elf, a particular grumpy elf has a probability p to become happy on a given day?
also it wants a formula for E in terms of p and n?
no a happy elf can make another grumpy elf
happy
yes
then the probability for a grumpy elf to not be happy at the end of a day is $(1-p)^{n_h}$, where $n_h$ is the number of happy elves at that day?
yes
can a grumpy elf who became happy today, make others elves happy?
yes
But the next day
Btw the thing starts on day 0

how do u even do this bro
i would show work if i even had a clue on the 1st step to solving this
well, do you know how to shift a graph up and down?
Try playing around with this.
i might sound like a jerk
but just substitute zero
and then try something else if it doesn't work
they've even been nice enough to give you the value of g(0) = -2
normally it's just subtracting 2 to shift it down
uh i made this after playing around but how do i like get the equation
Cool, look at a, b, c, and d and then plug them into the equation for g(x) and see what you get.
!nosols please
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
first things first do u know how transformations look on a function
like if f(x) ws translated up by 2 would u know what would happen to f(x)
I mean, that's why I didn't tell quack the steps, instead I gave her the desmos graph to try to get her used to what each parameter does.
oh
i am confuzzled
So @hollow fjord in your desmos tab, what are the values of a, b, c, and d?
after you have moved the graph to the correct location?
0, -2, 1, 1
ok cool.
Can you describe what each variable does to the resulting graph?
Qualitatively that is
a moves it left and right, b changes the size, c elongates it, d changes the width (squeezes it together ig)
oh yea
ok so
I can tell you that 0, -2, 1, 1 is correct. If you look at the definition of g, what do you get when you replace a with 0, b with -2, and so on?
🎉

Can anyone help w part A? I wrote out the converse but I'm just not sure how to start the proof.
show what u did @frank gulch
so for part A)
converse: if $g \circ f: A \rightarrow C$ is surjective, then f and g are both surjective
i started out by saying if $g \circ f$ is surjective then g o f covers every $c \in C$ so for some $a$, $(g \circ f)(a)=g(f(a))=c$. then every c is in the image of g, so g is surjective
but then idk how to show if f is surjective or not
take a counterexample
nilo
so i jsut try to find A,B,C where f is not surjective?
yes
so i can just say like
$A={1},B={1,2},C={x}$
and
$f(1)=1,g(1)=x,g(2)=x$
nilo
how do u write set curly brackets in latex
f is surjective?
but its missing 2 from B
so i can just say like
$A={1},B={1,2},C={x}$
and
$f(1)=1,g(1)=x,g(2)=x$
Goëtia
wanted to write g, im on phone
ah nws
but thats fine though right since we have shown g is surjective earlier
so the converse is not true
yes any counterexample where $f(A) \subset B$ is valid
Goëtia

Can someone explain where I am going wrong? Calc 2
where's this formula from
Previous question
I thought that was correct cause we used it in lab as well
(I am a bio major, Calc 2 is the last time I will touch math. It has been a struggle... lol)
But I just gotta pass my final and I am good lol
Also its area so it cant be negative right? I have no idea what I am doing wrong
sin^2 is not 1-cos
I thought double angle was only if it was cos(2theta)
2 * 1/2 = 1
OHHHH
yes, cos(2x)=1-2sin^2(x)
yes

I need help with this question
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
ok so i tried a few things, basicly im wondering if i can use fermat's little therom to show x^p+a = x+a
then it is always irreducable as the only zero would be -a, which gives x+a as a factor or itsself
but idk if this holds

write x^2-8x+10 in the form of (x-p)^2 - q.
try to expand (x-p)^2-q and try to match the terms with x^2-8x+10
Compare the coefficients
@peak moon Has your question been resolved?
@peak moon would you like help?
have you tried doing what skissue told?
can you try expanding (x-p)^2 - q ?
thats not how its done. we have to write the term i wrote in that form. we dont have to play with that term itself
no
I mean you could also just try converting the quadratic given to you in perfect square
both approach are fine
I actually think skissue's is very clever and very intuitive
i dont think so. i'll lose marks
when it comes to math all solutions are equally valid, it doesn't matter which way you take
unless it is explicitly mentioned in the problem you have to use x method, you can basically use any
look, imagine I ask you to write x^2 + 8x + 16 in the form of (x+a)^2,
if you expand (x+a)^2 you can match the terms and write it like how I asked
so lets try doing it too, here
how would you expand (x-p)^2 - q?
x^2 - 2(x)(p) + p^2 - q
x^2
and the last term too
thats +........o ya that doesnt matter right?
ofc, you could subtitute q for -10 and it would give you +10
so lets see
we need to write -8x in terms of -2xp + p^2
lets drop the negative signs so we dont get confused
8x must equal 2xp+p^2
maybe we could make an equation?
2xp+p^2 = 8x
i rmbred just now. the process we have to use is completing the square.
oh yes I'm noting that too
since we could write 4x = xp
then p^2 would be turned into 10 by the -q term
try doing it, if you need help you can ask
I think the result would end up being ||(x-4)^2 - 6||
o yaa sameee. it must be right then
i used the other wayy tho
i didnt understand ur way but im interested
well
8x = 2xp
4x = xp
p = 4
then we have p^2 - q = 10
4^2 - q = 10
16 - q = 10
q = 6
ohh damn, this one seems to be more logical. i understand this better now 😩 thnxx 🫶
anything else you need help with?
no thnxx, i'll let uk 👍

im having trouble with this problem
,w int 0 to inf 1/(1+x^4)
Do you know the beta and gamma functions
no
Do you know residue theorem
no
you could try x^2 = tan(t) as a substitution
this is a tough integral with limited integral technique knowledge
Try splitting the integral from 0 to 1 and 1 to infinity then use u = 1/x
but then the bounds for 0 to 1 becomes 1/0 and 1
how does that work
does it become infinity?
x is positive so the limit as x goes to 0 from the right, u goes to ?
infinity?

find the largest natural number $a$ such that there exists a positive integer $b$ where
$$ab+a+b\mid 5a^2+4ab+6a+4b+1$$
skissue.in.a.teacup
ok so first thing its equiv to $ab+a+b\mid 5a^2+2a+1$ but im not sure how to continue it
skissue.in.a.teacup
@hoary ember Has your question been resolved?
So you have that $$5a^2+2a+1=k(b(a+1)+a)$$ for some integer $k$. Solving for $b$ we have that $$b =\frac{5a^2+(2-k)a+1}{k(a+1)}$$
Now use the condition that $b$ is a positive integer
Asteroid
The use the fact that b must be positive
6-2+k=0
k=-4
Asteroid
-(5a+1)/4 has to be a positive integer?
im p sure its correct?
well, (2,1) is a solution?
well a+1 doesent always have to divide the numerator, there can exist k such that a+1 doesent divide the numerator for all a
all it matters is for some a it can divide the numerator
@hoary ember Has your question been resolved?
Ahh wait this is easily fixed. So we need $a+1$ to divide $5a^2+(2-k)a+1$ which is equiv to $$a + 1 | k+4$$
Maybe you can get something out of these
You just returned back to the problem, didnt you?
Wdym
well, k is the quotient when this happens
so saying k divides this doesnt give you anything
Oh the second condition💀

How can I solve b
try some examples
starting with reflexive, clearly if you were born then you and yourself share the same bday
so you in that sense a ~ a
okay I think I get reflexivity for this one
now symmetry if you and and your friend share the same bday, does your friend and your share the same bday
?
transitivity?
if both have the same bday they both have the same bday so a,b and b,a work
well if I share the same bday as someone else, and they share the same bday as another person, then I share the same bday with the other person
so yes
yes
now antisymmetric?
if I share the same bday as another person
they can't share the same birthday as me
but that can't be the case
so no antisymmetry?
antisymmetry would mean here if you share the same bday with your friend then you and your friend must be the same person
because antisymmetry is defined as if a,b then b,a cannot be in R (unless a = b)
I see
well it's not true because just because ppl share the same bday doesnt mean they are the same person
is that what the question is asking though?
R is a relation on the set of people
We would assume each element in people is unique
and two people can have the same bday without having it to be the same person
so when we say a = b we are saying two different people with the same bday
not necessarily strictly looking at bdays
because if the question said strictly looking at bdays we wouldn't care about the uniqueness of the person?
no
by "a = b" we mean a and b are the same person
by "aRb" we mean a and b share the same birthday
hmmm then I don't understand
antisymmetry is just claiming that if two people share the same bday then these two people are the very same person
okay so a and b are born on the same day is represented as aRb not a = b
yes
okay
or a ~ b too for aRb
and aRb simply defines a = b as sharing the same birthday of the two people
but a = b means same person
yes
ok
I think I can wrap my mind around it now
I was struggling to convert the sentence into notation
R is the relation, don't use = when talking about R, just aRb (imagine R is a new symbol which is somehow similar to =)
=)
okay so aRb means the ordered pair (a, b) is part of the relation R iff a and b are the same date
not necessarily the same person?
is that a more precise way for me to think about it
yes
yes, just like how a = b means (a,b) is part of the equality relation (where we are defining that to mean they are the same person)

hey guys, what’s the answer to this if x = 20.38? I keep getting different answers
!show
lets have a look
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
i put it on the calculator multiple times and it keeps giving me different results, i thought i put it in wrong and i put it in chatgpt and it gave me a diff answer
,w calculate y=-0.09(20.38)^3+1.46(20.38)^2+5.43(20.38)+44.96
just show what you put
thank you!
it’s the second one highlighted
that's only one. where's the second
i put this onto the calculator
And what result did you get?
i think i put something wrong in the first and -6856 one tho
none of those show the full calculator entry
I can’t show the full calculations for the other ai ones bc they’re too big but here’s for the calculator and chat
!nogpt
Please do not trust ChatGPT or similar AI tools for mathematical tasks, as they often generate output which "sounds correct" but has numerous factual or logical errors. Use of these AI tools to answer other people's help questions is strictly against server rules (see #rules).
Especially with calculations you can do with a normal calculator
idk if I put it in wrong tho that’s why i used ai
If you don't fully show how you input the calculations we can't help you understand why you get a wrong result 🤷♂️
i showed the photo
for the one on the calc
idk if i inputted it right tho
This isn't the full (or whole) input...
last part is just + 44.92
And before -0.09?
What result should you get instead?
okay thanks
idk?? that’s why im asking you guys? 😭😭
this is wrong
because at the end it is 44.96 but in the question it is supposed to be 44.92

3x^4 + 5x = ax^4+kx
it must hold that 3=a because x^4 coefficient is unique
this is what we call comparing coefficients
ohhh
this works for identities where for any x, both sides of the equations are the same like
cos^2(x)+sin^2(x) = 1 is an identity
yea
try doing it for 2x^2+16x+26
factor out the 2
2(x^2+8)+26
in general, you factor out the coefficient of the square term
if it is not 1
we only need to focus on the linear and quadratic term first
okay lets perhaps try an alternative method
expand the a(x+b)^2+c
fully
and simplify
x^2+2bx+b^2
correct!
so u have
2x^2+16x+26 = ax^2+2abx+b^2+c
we can now look at term by term comparison
looking at this, what do u think a is in our equation?
the 2
yups!
now lets look at the linear term
what do you think b is?
(hint: 2abx = 16x by comparing)
b is the term that u devide by 2
correct
now i want u to find c yourself
remember that the constant term on both sides should be equal as we did with other terms
is it 30 or 17
look at the expansion again
i made a mistake before writing c^2
it should be c
so its 30 then
what is the constant term in the right hand side?
a i think
ax^2+2abx+b^2+c
in that equation, which terms are independent of x?

i dont really know where to start here is my issue.. and the reasoning statement depends on what you pick for statement. could someone walk me through it?
$\angle BAC = \angle CAD$ as they are alternating angles...

so its kinda redundant to display congruency
@real wasp Has your question been resolved?
let me see what i get from that

so which option would i pick for that?

✅
soo...
probably can lol
alright
im terrible with proofs so im really just unsure on EVERYTHING here..
i feel like
the first 2 are the
parallel lines cut by a transversal form confgruent alternate interior angles?
and the third one.. i want to say given but its just reversed the order.. so would it still be considered given?
so i was right on this for the first 2?
and then my question on the third proof
i cant tell
its not reflexive
the midpoint has nothing to do with this
and nither does a segment bisector
thats why im thinking given but idk
does this look right

is there an easy way to calc A^6? i got that A isn't diagonalizable, with CP = (x-1)(x+1)^2
well you can like
go the repeated-squaring/rawdog route
do A^2, then A^4 as (A^2)^2, then A^6 as A^2 * A^4
thats the best i can do?
can't think of anything less laborious
did you actually get that A isnt diagonalizable tho
or did you only get that its charpoly has repeated roots
yes, since it doesnt have 3 eigenvalues
which by itself just means it might not be diagonalizable
did you check the geometric multiplicity of -1
how do i prove it is then?
find dim ker(A + I)
wdym? i did also calc A^{-1}
why?
oh
A is diagonalizable iff dim ker(A+I) = 2
if you find a basis then those will be your (-1)-eigenvectors
youll need a 1-eigenvector to complete it obviously but thats always gonna be there
u are saying it could that my diagonal matrix will have -1 twice and once 1 maybe?
your diagonal matrix will be that if it exists
based on the charpoly
we're now figuring out the P in A = PDP^-1
not sure what eigen values are or what u guys are talking about but i can give u a way to find A^6 easily
well, out with it then
we're trying to determine if OP's claim that A isnt diagonalizable is correct
or im trying to give him the tools to do it
are you about to suggest repeated squaring or what
write it as A = (X+I)
X^2 = 0
A^6=(I+X)^6, just use binomial expansion ull only have to write for the first 2 terms
yes
i call bullshit cause no the fuck it dont
ok let me retry
well if you're not versed in eigenshit then you are literally stumbling around in the dark
recommend against trying to help here and now specifically, because, to put it bluntly, you dont know your shit
my bad, the first row came out to be 0 so i thought the whole matrix would be 0
i found the statement that proves it, but is there a way to get the third eigenvalue in that case for the diagonal matrix?
wdym
your eigenvalues are 1, -1 and -1
-1 is a repeated (double) root of the charpoly
oh, i think i get it
becuase the ker(-1*I-A) will have dim =2
ty mate i get it now

how to approach this?
i would help but I don't remember the formula for pressure
P=F/A however the thing is F=Intensity times mass inside which is however variable
its just way too complicated not sure how to start
is that how you're given force?
you can start by finding a function of mass with respect to r
you can use shell theorem for this or use gauss law in electrostats and swap out G for K
if someone has a background in physics feel free to answer
^
I'm currently doing physics
(I'm just useless at remembering formulae)
actually i have an idea
i think i was right
i would have to integrate thin shell elements i think i saw an hint
Can you use multiple integration?
I was thinking in terms of a triple integral, but you are thinking in terms of a single integral
the triple integral collapses into a single integral after evaluating the two angle components' integrals
$ \item $\displaystyle \rho=\frac{3M}{4\pi R^{3}}$
\item $\displaystyle m(r)=\frac{4\pi\rho r^{3}}{3}$
\item $\displaystyle g(r)=\frac{G,m(r)}{r^{2}}=\frac{4\pi G\rho}{3},r$
\item $\displaystyle \frac{dp}{dr}=-\rho,g(r)=-\frac{4\pi G\rho^{2}}{3},r$
\item $\displaystyle p(r)=\int_{r}^{R}\frac{4\pi G\rho^{2}}{3},s,ds
=\frac{2\pi G\rho^{2}}{3}\left(R^{2}-r^{2}\right)$
\item $\displaystyle p(r)=\frac{3GM^{2}}{8\pi R^{4}}
\left(1-\frac{r^{2}}{R^{2}}\right)$
\item $\displaystyle p(0)=\frac{3GM^{2}}{8\pi R^{4}}$

the mass function is needed since only the mass inside radius r creates a field at r
your idea of integrating shells is used when finding p(r) from the DE of dp/dr
Irodov?
R is the surface
r is the position of interest from the center
rho is density
p is pressure

how do i solve this
i tried 2x+1 > x or 2x+1 < -x
but it didn't give me the right answer
Good, but you need some conditions about x
You know that x has to be what ?
no
Then why did you split that way?
why is it wrong?
Because x can't take on any value
whats the correct way of solving it?

tbh im not really sure on how to solve it either, my guess is that if its an ellipse the semi major axis must be the greatest distance, which must be the resultant of the two unit vectors
it would help guide on where i should begin

Can anyone check and see if I’m correct with this
Type .reopen
Too late rip
the criteria to consider a value as an outlier in terms of the median is it lying more than 1.5 times the interquartile range away from that quartile (in this case the upper)
rather than having to make a full cumulative frequency graph just make the table and observe where the median lies. you'll see better from there
another method for skewness is Q3 - Median relation with Median - Q1
e.g. if Q3 - Median > Median - Q1, then the upper half of the data is more spread out than the lower half, signifying a right or positive skewness
after working out values, i feel like your reasoning was incorrect but you got the answer correct 😭
@midnight sun Has your question been resolved?
@midnight sun recall that skewness means where the data tails off, i.e. in a left skewed data the majority of your data lies on the right and there's fewer values on the left that are skewing the average to that side.
that should help understand why your answer is correct

Consider the function $f : \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ given by
$$f(x) = 2x_1^3 - 3x_1^2 - 6x_1x_2(x_1-x_2-1).$$
Show that $\nabla^2f(\cdot)$ is $L$-Lipschitz continuous and give the constant $L$ explicitly.
I've calculated
$$\nabla^2 f(x) = \begin{bmatrix}
6(2x_1-2x_2-1) & 6(-2x_1+2x_2+1)\
6(-2x_1+2x_2+1) & 6(2x_1) \end{bmatrix}$$
But I'm not sure how to proceed from here. Usually we are asked to show Lipschitz-continuity for a function or its gradient, this is the first time I'm dealing with the hessian, so i'm confused 😦

How. He switched the -5 and -2 other way around didnt he. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE: (2x-2) (X-5)
because originally they were 2 and 5
There's another easier way to prove it
plug in a value for x?
yeah but without proving how did he know he had to switch those
normally we wouldve done -2 and -5
not -5 and -2
well you can say that it will be of the form (2x-a)(x-b), where ab = 10 and a + 2b = 9
from that you can solve for a and b
bro is clearly double checking if he chose the roots correctly in subtitles
He's doing it after making those brackets
i can do that too
uh yeah
but normally he puts it in order
WITHOUT double checking
well he already rehearsed this problem to show you guys so he knows the answer...
he chooses the right order first out of brevity
that or its just luck
U need to double check
Any quick way to double check then?
expanding would take some time
use ur brain i heard its cool
This was easier with multiple the whole two brackets
Look at the pic above
check the coefficient of the x term
it should he -9
Exactly
Np buddy
As an aside, double checking is obviously good, although in the full method you can just split the middle term and double factor
$$2x^2 -9x + 10 = 2x^2 - 4x - 5x + 10 = 2x(x-2) -5(x-2) = (2x-5)(x-2)$$
Don't forget the signs while u r checking
Azyrashacorki
This way takes forever and it makes no sense to use this type of question
It may be helpful with other questions
I wouldn’t say it takes forever, granted you then don’t need to check you made the right guess. I also fail to see why it makes no sense for this type of question as it’s exactly what the question asks.
how did u get +10 from that method
Regardless either way is fine ig
U have the long equation which is
2x²-9x+10
U need to simplify it and u don't know the correct orders in the brackets
So u put
(2x-2) (X-5)
Check using my way
The answer will be -10x
Dose it equals the coefficient of x in the main equation (No)
So switch the numbers in the brackets
Yeah, I totally agree with u but schools unfortunately don't focus on this concept so if u try to teach a student how to use he'll maybe get a little bit confused
I think the product-sum method is pretty common. I wouldn’t even be surprised that’s what this person is being taught to factor those types of quadratics.
Moreover, the right pair is -4,-5, not 2,5. The point is it’s just a coincidence that the constants in the factors are -2 and -5, in general your factor pairs won’t necessarily appear in the final factored form…

When dealing with determinants is it only the first row you are allowed to move the k outside?
Example det([ka,kb],[c,d])=k*det([a,b],[c,d])
you can move it out of any row
or any column
generally any property of the determinant that applies to the first row should apply to every other row and every other column
another diffrent question when you swap 2 row you have to multiply it by -
what happens when you swap columns?
same thing
every property that applies to rows also applies to columns, because of the fact that the determinant of the transpose is the same

anyone, help pls?
I would probably approach this by finding the determinant as depending on a. Then using the determinant formula we know that det(M^2) = det(M)^2. Then we have a quintic to solve in a.
there must be some trick.... how do u solve a quintic?
oh, good news, the determinant isn't even dependent on a.
So there is no quintic. Just a linear equation in a
Well, I was thinking that they specified the "integer value of a," which implied to me that the rational root theorem would have been of use.
But thankfully it won't come to that.
ok.. so how do we move forward?
ok, so do you remember what it means for a matrix to be non-invertable.
det = 0?
after that?
I feel like I've been reasonably explicit with the steps, so let's step back
we want the determinant to be 0, so we want to select a such that the equation at the bottom has determinant zero.
We know that det(AB) = det(A) det(B), therefore det(A^n) = det(A)^n
what do you think we should do from here?
WAIT WHATT
1s
lemme google smthng
So one trick you can do to simplify the calculation is notice that everything is divisible by M^3, so we can factor that out.
orrrrrrrrr we can take out factor as M^2?
That will fit in with the char formula?
what?
might be spitting some non sense but if we take M^2 as common we get a cubic?
