bro stop

#

Yes, if a point lies on a curve it means that its coordinates must satisfy the equation of the curve.

bro

#

go use another help channel

#

someones alr using this

#

and delete this*

flint marsh
lunar grove
#

Yh is it acceptable to do that or do I need to eliminate m

hasty sail
lunar grove
#

And then rearrange to form the equation

flint marsh
sharp vine
#

You just have to show that this equality holds.

lunar grove
#

The markscheme derived the equation ig?

#

By eliminating m

#

Ig that's just a way to go about it eh?

sharp vine
#

Yes, it's possible, because we're supposed to prove it if m varies.

#

So it doesn't depend on m.

lunar grove
#

Also got a qucik question and ts kinda random and basic

#

But i want to ask

#

We got a locus

#

In parametric form

#

So like a circle

#

Simple example

#

X=costheta y=sin theta

#

And then dy/dx can be found by doing dy/dtheta x dtheta/dx

#

Ik the algebra works completely

#

What's like the concept tho like intuitively

#

Ofc doing it directly makes sense to me where u differintiate eq of a circle

#

And sub in those values

sharp vine
#

I mean, when you can't directly solve for y in terms of x (or whatever the variable is)

#

And what you said is called chain rule

lunar grove
#

Yh yh ik it's chain rule haha but idk was kinda weird to think abt

#

But sure ig the algebra works fine

sharp vine
#

Yeah, notice that dy/dtheta x dtheta/dx is just dy/dx in fact

lunar grove
#

Yh yh ik ik

high cradle
#

You could probably apply a modified version of that intuition to your specific case

#

A visual explanation of what the chain rule and product rule are, and why they are true.

ping me when someone's here

full forumBOT
shell dome
#

OHH okay thanks, lemme post it rq , it is a RLLY dumb problem btw so just don't judge 😔

#

√200y^4

#

lemme send my steps rq

ember solstice
glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

ember solstice
shell dome
#

√10^3 * y^4
√10^2 * 10 * y^2 * y^2
√10 * 10 * y * y

i finally got:

10y√10y
and ik its wrong since chatgpt said so but i CAN'T figure out what is wrong

shell dome
#

i gotta simplify it

ember solstice
glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

shell dome
#

hollup shi ur right

#

wait

#

OH

ember solstice
shell dome
#

Ohh sure

#

OH so i gotta simplify 200 then

#

100 * 2 * y * 2 * 2

ember solstice
#

Also, your simplification of $\sqrt{y^2 \times y^2}$ seems off.

glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

shell dome
#

what's wrong about it?

#

so that i can fix it

ember solstice
glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

shell dome
#

oh yeah, since square root of y^2 is y right?

ember solstice
shell dome
#

chat gpt told me that i had to change anything squared to the base thing

#

so i started oding that w equations

shell dome
#

10 x 10 x 2

#

is that better

ember solstice
shell dome
#

so if i take the y outside the square root, THEN i have to just remove the exponent?

#

wai but for previous problems i did, it were different

#

let me look for one of them really quick

shell dome
#

It’s like that

#

And usually the numbers outside the square root are squared

#

Or cubed

#

Or quadrupled I think that’s what we call smth with ^4

ember solstice
shell dome
#

ohh

#

were they all the y's that had the exponent

#

OHHH ALRR OKAYY

shell dome
#

teh problem, so far it's √10 * 10 * 2

ember solstice
shell dome
#

isn't 100 x 10 = 1000 tho

#

i'm confused lmfao

glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

shell dome
#

OH NVM i'm dumb

#

10^2

#

10^2 x 10

#

wai ill write it

#

i mean

#

10^2 x 2

ember solstice
glossy valveBOT
#

@ember solstice

shell dome
#

Smth like this 😭

shell dome
ember solstice
shell dome
#

OHH OKAYY

#

So can't we bring the 10 square, and the two y squares out of hte square root?

#

that leaves two by itself then

#

is that the answer

ember solstice
# shell dome

Once you take the ...^2 out of the square root, you should drop the exponent.

shell dome
#

ohh, so this?

ember solstice
ember solstice
shell dome
shell dome
#

OHH HOLDUP

echo marsh
#

no

#

how is it y^4

shell dome
#

is this it

echo marsh
#

yes

shell dome
#

okay so overall, from what i did in the whole question wai i'll write it all down in order

#

Accidentally added square to 10

#

At the end

#

is it right

echo marsh
#

what is this

shell dome
#

it's messy mb i'll rewrite it

echo marsh
#

$\sqrt{200y^4} \
\sqrt{2 \cdot 10^2 \cdot y^2 \cdot y^2} \
10 \cdot y \cdot y \sqrt{2} \
10y^2\sqrt{2}$

glossy valveBOT
#

Astar777

echo marsh
#

finally

shell dome
#

Damn

echo marsh
shell dome
#

lol

echo marsh
#

$\sqrt{y^2} = y$

glossy valveBOT
#

Astar777

echo marsh
#

you are taking y^2 out

echo marsh
shell dome
#

ohh, yeah, i thought if we remove the y we can then take the two out

#

right?

echo marsh
#

wdym

shell dome
#

if i take the y outside the square root, THEN i have to just remove the exponent, right?

echo marsh
#

then yes

shell dome
#

yeah

echo marsh
#

actually its $\sqrt{y^2} = \abs{y}$

#

but yeah

shell dome
glossy valveBOT
#

Astar777

shell dome
#

wai but what's the diff

#

lajkslfdjalsdf

shell dome
#

ohh

shell dome
echo marsh
#

$\sqrt{(-2)^2}$ and $\sqrt{2^2}$ both equal to 2

glossy valveBOT
#

Astar777

shell dome
#

ohh nvm that makes sense

shell dome
#

or is there more

let me do and send

green merlin
#

Okay

@green merlin

green merlin
#

log_4(z) should be 2log_2(z)

minor swift
#

wait what

#

wasn't it was log_b ^2 a = 1/2log_b a

green merlin
#

uh wait what

minor swift
#

$\log_{a^b} x = \frac{1}{b} \log_a$

RUSTY_DUSTBIN

green merlin
#

Think of it like this

#

oh shit

#

my brain lagged

#

Sorry youre right @minor swift

green merlin
#

Since the logs have the same base now

minor swift
green merlin
#

ok

minor swift
#

@green merlin

green merlin
#

I meant combine it in each equation

minor swift
#

oh

#

I took 4 as base in third equation because i do not think it will give 4root in any case

green merlin
#

Indeed

minor swift
#

@green merlin

green merlin
#

Hold up

minor swift
#

should i squre both side?

green merlin
#

We can multiply the equations by a constant

#

So that there will not be any roots

minor swift
#

oh how

green merlin
green merlin
#

We can multiply 4 both side

minor swift
#

i do not understand what u said

green merlin
#

You have $0.5\log_2{z} + 0.25\log_2{x} + 0.25\log_2{y} = 2$

glossy valveBOT
#

Carbonite

minor swift
#

oh

green merlin
#

Multiply both sides by 4 might make it easier

unreal wren
#

Multiply both sides by 4, use log(a) +log(b) = log(ab), then change the 8 on RHS into log(?)

Let there be $T:\mathbb{R}{3}[x] \to \mathbb{R}^{3}, and S:\mathbb{R}^{3} \to \mathbb{R}{3}[x]$ linear transformations.
prove that if dim(Im(TS)) = 2, then $1 \leq dim(Im(ST)) \leq 2$.

@leaden mica Has your question been resolved?

leaden mica
#

I didn't really found a way to approach it, The only thing i thought of was that 1. there isn't a difference between R^3 and R_3[x] they are the same just with a different writing, and i thought about converting to matrices but I don't think it would work.

waxen flax
#

Think about it
Could the rank of ST be 3?
Could it be 0?

leaden mica
#

if it is 0 then either dim(Im(S)) = 0 which is impossible because that would mean that dim(Im(TS)) = 0 or dim(T(Im(S)) = 0 and for that I'm not sure

nimble ridge
#

I have a question, isn't dim(R_3[x]) = 4?

leaden mica
nimble ridge
leaden mica
#

yes, dim=3

grand hatch
#

suppose dim Im ST = 0. since dim Im TS = 2, it means that dim im T ≥ 2 and dim Im S ≥ 2 which means dim ker S , dim ker T ≤ 1 by rank nullity theorem but from dim Im ST = 0, we have Im T ⊆ ker S which contradicts dim im T ≥ 2

nimble ridge
#

And a base of polynomials of degree 3 is {x^3; x^2; x; 1}, so dim(R_3[x]) = 4, no?

grand hatch
nimble ridge
#

Oh, I see!

leaden mica
#

but what about dim ST equals 3?

grand hatch
#

well then dim im TS = 3

#

because dim im ST = 3 means dim im T = dim im S = 3

leaden mica
#

ok

thanks

can somone explain the underlined and circled ones

full forumBOT
#

@unreal wren Has your question been resolved?

rugged jay
#

Does TSTST stand for team selection test selection test lol

rugged jay
#

You can get to the red one after submitting a=b=c=t^3

#

And the second one after submitting a=b=c=t

#

Well if I get to t^3 after applying the function t^9-t^3 times to t^9, and I get to t after applying the function t^3-t times to t^3; that would mean I get to t after applying the function t^9-t times to t^9

#

Because I just do those 2 things back to back

#

If this doesn’t make sense I can explain with a diagram

unreal wren
unreal wren
rugged jay
#

You don’t see how those 2 equations gets us to the equation you underlined

unreal wren
#

Wait I get it now

#

Yeah thanks

#

But what about the other underlined ones?

rugged jay
#

I mean if I apply f to 5 a times and get to 10, and I apply f to 10 b times and get to 30 then applying f to 5 a+b times would make you get to 30 because you just do those 2 things back to back

unreal wren
#

I get it already

rugged jay
#

Oh okay

unreal wren
#

How about the circled paragraph?

rugged jay
#

Ill look when i have paper and pencil

unreal wren

Oh okay

#

Ping me later

@unreal wren Has your question been resolved?

rugged jay
#

There is no problem in the proof of the lemma that says f^t^2-t(t^2)=t right

unreal wren
#

No, i just don't understand the proof

#

if t = abc, shouldnt it be f^(t-a) (t) instead of f^(t-a) (a)?

rugged jay
#

Yes first line in the circled part seems to be mistyped

unreal wren
#

oh i was so confused

#

lemme re read for a moment

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

how did they get from first line to second line??

rugged jay
#

I was like maybe it isn’t mistyped and somehow provable but it is just a wrong equation when you consider the function we are proving it is supposed to be (which clearly works)

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

oh, so you mean there are a lot of steps between first and second line, but they didnt show it?

rugged jay
#

Yeah well prove the second line using some things we have so far

#

Consider the first term in the left side of the equation (in the second line)

unreal wren
#

yeah

rugged jay
#

So I used that

unreal wren
#

f^(t^2 - t) (t^2) = t, not t^2?

#

wait i am so confused

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

oh i get it

#

yeah sorry

rugged jay
#

Instead of applying the function to t^2 t^2-ab times im applying t^2-t times and then t-ab times, we get to t after the first step like you pointed out

unreal wren
#

yes it makes so much sense

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

wait lemme process

#

why would f^(t-ab) (t) = ab?

rugged jay
#

I mean proof isn’t done because they still dont turn into the exact things in the RHS

unreal wren
#

oh ok

#

but do you know how they exactly derived the second line?

rugged jay
#

We will prove that the equation in the second line is correct, I don’t know how exactly they got to it tho there might be an easier way im not seeing

#

Maybe it is actually a simple observation

unreal wren
#

oh ok lol

#

wait lemme try to process how they got 3rd line

#

i dont get it

rugged jay
#

Oh wait the second line is so obvious actually

#

Forget about this well get to the second line equation in a way simpler way

unreal wren
rugged jay
#

This is unnecessary apparently

#

It is just the equation that is given in the question
Just notice ab , t and c multiply to t^2

unreal wren
#

oh yeah

#

wait wait i will process

#

but why would it equal RHS?

#

i still dont see it

rugged jay
#

It is just the equation given in the question

unreal wren
#

wait hold up

#

oh ok

#

makes sense

#

how about third line??

rugged jay
#

I’ll look into it

unreal wren
#

ok

rugged jay
#

Okay third line is provable using first two lines but well do some arranging and stuff

#

The transformation I thought was necessary to prove the second line is actually useful here

unreal wren
#

i kind of see it

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

all we need to do is prove that f^(t^2 - ab) (t^2) + f^(t^2 - c) (t^2) = f^(t-ab) (t)

rugged jay
#

It is probably correct i just need it to be explained

unreal wren
#

this is what i meant

unreal wren
#

forgot to type that

#

oh i know

rugged jay
#

You’re saying we just need to prove this?

unreal wren
#

f^(t-c) (c) = f^(t^2-c) (t^2) so they cancel out

rugged jay
#

That is great because we will prove it with just one step

unreal wren
rugged jay
unreal wren
#

ur method

#

by using 2 fs

rugged jay
#

Yeah

unreal wren
#

so i get the circled one now

#

thanks but theres more underlined ones

rugged jay
#

We are using the fact that applying f t^2-c times is the same thing as …

#

Fill the blank

#

Just making sure it is all understood before moving on

unreal wren
#

wait lemme type

#

f^(t-c) (f^(t^2 - t) (t^2))

#

= f^(t-c) (t)

rugged jay
#

Okay so after arranging and using this trick are we convinced third line is true?

unreal wren
#

yes

rugged jay
#

Nice

unreal wren
#

now the other underlined ones

#

the g_t(a) + g_t(b) = g_t(ab)

rugged jay
#

Just look at the definition of the function g_t()

unreal wren
#

wait

#

lemme process

#

oh yeah lol

#

didnt see that

#

that means only 1 underlined one leftt

rugged jay
#

Btw the reason they noted ab|t for that equation is because we are working with positive integers and the original equation given in the problem only works with abc being a multiple of a b and c

#

And they noted ab<t because they defined g_t() to work only with inputs smaller than t

unreal wren
#

ye

#

i get everything BUT the underlined ones

rugged jay
#

Okay

#

I need to read the parts between the underlined we just went through and the next underlined and comprehend them too rn

#

I’m reading the solution for the first time

unreal wren
#

oh yeah forgot

#

mightve seemed a little rude there sorry

rugged jay
#

I don’t understand why the line right before the line you marked is correct

#

But I see how it is used to prove the line you underlined

unreal wren
#

theres many equalities there i understand all of them

rugged jay
#

Why does pg_t(a)+qg_t(b)= g_t(a^p.b^q)

unreal wren
#

because of the additive rule

#

wait lemme send a phoro

#

there

rugged jay
#

Ohh yeah

#

And getting to g_t(s) was useful because t is s^2 and we know how f^(k^2-k)(k^2) behaves

#

They made a typo in that line btw

unreal wren
#

what really?

#

i didnt see any typo

rugged jay
#

It needs to be f^(s^2-s)(s^2)-s=0
They wrote f^(s^2-s)(s)-s=0

#

Look at definition of g_t it needs to have t in there which is s^2

unreal wren
#

oh yeah

#

well how did they get the last underlined one?

rugged jay
#

And we know why it is correct when it is s^2 there, because of the first lemma we proved

rugged jay
#

The line you didn’t underline that you just explained to me says this right

unreal wren
#

yes

rugged jay
#

Well p divides 0, it also divides the first term on the left hand side (because there is a p in it)

#

What does this say

unreal wren
#

wait uhm

#

i have no idea

#

wait i know

rugged jay
#

a+b=c , a b and c are all integers. If p divides a and c what does this say?

unreal wren
#

p divides q g_t(b)

rugged jay
#

Yeah

unreal wren
#

oooh

rugged jay
#

These are all integers so we can come to conclusions like this

unreal wren
#

yes

rugged jay
#

Well p certainly doesn’t divide q right?

#

So it has to divide g_t(b)

unreal wren
#

yes

#

why does it have to be greater than -a tho

rugged jay
#

Well there are lots of numbers that are divisible by p, not just 0? How do we know g_t(b) is 0?

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

oh sorry lol

rugged jay
#

g_t(b) > -b because just look at the definition of g_t() and remember that f gives positive outputs (N->N)

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

oh yeah i see it

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

ok

rugged jay
#

We have shown p divides g_t(b). Well there are lots of numbers that are divisible by p, not just 0. How do we know g_t(b) is 0?

unreal wren
#

is it because g_t(a) is divisible by q?

rugged jay
#

No forget that too

unreal wren
#

oh

#

wait let me think

rugged jay
#

Sure I’m waiting I’ll tell you how when you want

unreal wren
#

i dont have any idea

rugged jay
#

It is because it didnt matter which prime we choose as p. Like lets say q=37 a=5 b=3 and we chose 41 to be p. Well we could choose 43 to be p too couldn’t we? And p still would divide g_t(b)
So g_t(b) wouldn’t be only divisible by 41 but also by 43 and also by any of the infinite amount of primes we could choose p to be

unreal wren
#

oh wow

rugged jay
#

And I can only think of 1 integer that would satisfy that

unreal wren
#

wait wait

rugged jay
#

Sure

how about the restirction s = a^p x b^q?

rugged jay
#

Doesn’t really matter

unreal wren
#

why not?

rugged jay
#

If we chose p to be 59 s would be a^59.b^q (whatever we chose for those 3). If we chose p to be 61 s would be a^61.b^q
But we could always carry out the proof for p|g_t(a) the same way we just did

unreal wren
#

err let me think

rugged jay
#

p isnt infinitely many primes simultaneously, it is just that p can be any of them it wants and always divides g_t(a)

unreal wren
#

okk i think i get it

rugged jay
unreal wren
#

ok

#

then it must equal 0 right

rugged jay
#

Yeah

#

Only integer that is divisible by infinitely many primes is 0

unreal wren
#

wow let me process

#

(again)

Could someone please help me with the second shift? I know x moves to 0 but I can't get y

woeful pasture
#

this is the shifted function, right?

safe edge
#

yes

woeful pasture
#

nvm

#

ok

#

what transformations are being done

safe edge
#

I mean, my x shift is correct, yes?

woeful pasture
#

x is shifted to the right yes

#

what's next

safe edge
#

4 down vertically, and flip over x axis

woeful pasture
#

flip over first

#

then 4 down

#

otherwise that -4 becomes +4 after u multiply the entire thing by -1

#

now lets go about our thingy

#

we start from (0,1), now move right once we're at (1,1)

#

we got flipped so we're at (1,-1)

#

then we brought down 4 more units

#

so

#

(1, -5)

#

ya?

safe edge
#

Yes, that's a. Now b starts from 1, e. moves right so x value becomes 2, correct?

woeful pasture
#

yup

#

then

safe edge
#

yeah, then it goes to -e and down 4 more

woeful pasture

ya

Can someone help me with these graphing questions? Im not sure how they work

undone vector
#

You have a picture?

cerulean ingot
#

yes

#

I guess i just dont understand how these work?

void nova
#

Derivative negative means function decreasing

#

Have you been taught this fact?

cerulean ingot
#

alright, so does that mean its going from increasing to decreasing?

void nova
#

No

cerulean ingot
#

oh

#

sorry, im trying to teach myself and its not going well

void nova
#

They want you to find on the graph the intervals where the function is decreasing

cerulean ingot

i know

hazy phoenix
#

can anyone help me with my math its really hard and i dont get it

runic galleon
#

just send the question

hazy phoenix
#

heres the thing

#

i dont understand how to do it

#

I dont want the awnser

#

i need help understanding it

runic galleon
#

send the question helpers will explain

#

if they know it that is

hazy phoenix
#

this 😦

runic galleon
#

any question in particular or the whole thing

hazy phoenix
#

Just help me understand it

#

cause

onyx glen
#

the concept you're looking for is called collecting like terms

hazy phoenix
runic galleon
onyx glen
#

yeah, terms. that's the word in algebra for things being added or subtracted

onyx glen
runic galleon
#

we were told terms and variables are the same

hazy phoenix
#

bro im stupid please go to a lower level guys

#

😭

onyx glen
#

ok here is the dead simple tier explanation

#

let me ask you this

hazy phoenix
#

yay

onyx glen
#

what's 5 apples plus 3 apples?

hazy phoenix
onyx glen
#

8 what

hazy phoenix
#

8 apples

onyx glen
#

right

hazy phoenix
#

yay

onyx glen
#

5 apples + 3 apples = 8 apples

#

ok

#

let's try another one

#

what's 18 pencils minus 7 pencils

hazy phoenix
#

11 pencils

onyx glen
#

right

hazy phoenix
#

at this point just be my tutor

#

lol

onyx glen
#

... im not taking any clients at the minute sorry

hazy phoenix
onyx glen
#

anyway

hazy phoenix
#

WAIT

#

SO IS THE APPLES / PENCILS VARE THING

#

or terms

onyx glen
#

well yeah it was a stand in for letters

#

like i literally replaced the variable a (scary) with apples (intuitive)

#

but the logic is still the same

#

i was then going to ask you for something like "6 billion + 15 billion" or something along these lines and then segue into things like "6x + 8x"

#

but it looks like you got it already

hazy phoenix
#

so 14x

onyx glen
#

just as

5 apples + 3 apples = 8 apples
so too
5a + 3a becomes 8a

onyx glen
onyx glen
# hazy phoenix

ok so why don't you try doing the first six questions from here

#

don't worry about the rest just yet, we'll get to them

undone radish
#

Collect like terms

onyx glen
undone radish
#

I can explain further

onyx glen
#

OP wants to learn how to do exactly this

onyx glen

#

Would you like me to draw a diagram

#

:D

#

I wanna become a math teacher some day ngl

onyx glen
#

calvin i appreciate your enthusiasm but i can handle this guy myself

hazy phoenix
#

umm im stucj

#

stuck

onyx glen
#

on which one

undone radish
#

Okay

hazy phoenix
#

this

#

your thing dont say that

#

😭

onyx glen
#

well

#

4 apples plus an apple

#

what's that give you

undone radish
#

I think he needs a diagram

onyx glen
undone radish
#

D:

hazy phoenix
onyx glen
#

@hazy phoenix

#

5 what

hazy phoenix
#

so

#

5 apples

onyx glen
#

yes

#

so 4a+1a = ?

hazy phoenix
#

5a

#

IK THIS ONE

onyx glen
#

right

hazy phoenix
#

1+1+1+1

#

its 4x

onyx glen
#

yes

#

you're literally adding together four x's

#

so yes of course it is 4x

hazy phoenix
#

0a?

onyx glen
#

yeah, or just 0

#

0 times anything is 0 after all

hazy phoenix
#

ok

#

ANN

#

im stuck again sorry

onyx glen
#

ok right well i did ask you to do the first six

#

so now you see how some of the terms contain the letter a while others contain c, right

hazy phoenix
#

yea

onyx glen
#

yeah so the idea is

#

ones with different letters don't interact so to speak

#

in the lingo, they're called unlike terms

hazy phoenix
onyx glen
#

math-speak

hazy phoenix
#

ok

onyx glen
#

but "lingo" generally means language or words specific to some discipline or subject

hazy phoenix
#

ok

onyx glen
#

so for example

hazy phoenix
#

so will it be ac

onyx glen
#

if you had a question that asked to simplify

15a + 8b
there would be nothing to do, as the two terms here are unlike and so don't interact with each other

hazy phoenix
#

gmm

#

i mean hmm

onyx glen
#

on the other hand, with your question:

3a + 5c - a + 2c
you have two "a" terms:

  • 3a
  • -a
    and two "c" terms:
  • 5c
  • 2c
#

you collect these separately in the same way you've been doing thus far

#

you can think of this as:

3 apples, plus 5 carrots, minus an apple, plus another two carrots

#

you count the apples and carrots separately

hazy phoenix
#

ok

#

so

#

2 apples and 6 carrots

onyx glen
#

yes

#

can you write that in math notation

hazy phoenix
#

idk

onyx glen
#

(with a for apples and c for carrots)

hazy phoenix
#

so 2a 6c

onyx glen
#

2a + 6c

#

don't forget that plus

hazy phoenix
#

8

onyx glen
#

nope

hazy phoenix
#

8 ac?

onyx glen
#

2a+6c, that's your final answer

hazy phoenix
#

oh

#

ok

onyx glen
hazy phoenix
#

ok

onyx glen
#

anyway, this sort of logic should let you do up to and including q18

#

note also that raw numbers (ones without a variable) can only add/subtract with other raw numbers

hazy phoenix
#

wait

hazy phoenix
#

its 7c

onyx glen
#

ok yeah you got me

#

5c+2c is 7c indeed

#

you said 6 carrots earlier and i didn't bother to double check

hazy phoenix
#

yay

#

i was like

#

huh

#

Wait

onyx glen
#

importantly though i hope you understood the logic

hazy phoenix
#

yea

#

so

#

where do i stop next

onyx glen
#

wdym stop

runic galleon
#

Probably means where he should do up to next

onyx glen
#

as i said earlier,

anyway, this sort of logic should let you do up to and including q18

#

so go until there

hazy phoenix
#

erm

#

there is no term

onyx glen
#

gonna repost the entire sheet for convenience

onyx glen
#

are you talking about the 3 and the -2 on the right

hazy phoenix
#

3-2

#

yea

onyx glen
#

these are terms alright, they just don't have a letter

#

they are constants

#

or as i like to call them, raw numbers

#

note also that raw numbers (ones without a variable) can only add/subtract with other raw numbers

#

3-2 is 1. just 1. (and you should know what to do with 3x-x by this point)

hazy phoenix
#

what

#

i dont understand

onyx glen
#

mb watch this

onyx glen
#

3 - 2 is 1. just 1.

hazy phoenix
#

ok

Im a bit confused on how the following trig identity is derived:

young tide
#

, , tan(a-b) = \frac{tan(a)-tan(b)}{1+tan(a)tan(b)}

glossy valveBOT
young tide
#

in the derivation it goes like so:

#

, , tan(a-b) = \frac{sin(a-b)}{cos(a-b)}

glossy valveBOT
young tide
#

, , tan(a-b) = \frac{sin(a)cos(b)-cos(a)sin(b)}{cos(a)cos(b)+sin(a)sin(b)}

glossy valveBOT
young tide
#

, , tan(a-b) = \frac{\frac{sin(a)}{cos(b)}-\frac{sin(b)}{cos(b)}}{1+sin(a)sin(b)}

glossy valveBOT
young tide
#

, , tan(a-b) = \frac{tan(a)-tan(b)}{1+tan(a)tan(b)}

glossy valveBOT
young tide
# glossy valve **Rien**

In this step you divide by Cos(a)Cos(b), but I don't quite understand how you can do that if cos(a)cos(b) could equal 0.

onyx glen

ditto for b

Assignment: Find the eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors of a given matrix

unique wagon
#

what part r u struggling with

inner hare
#

the getting the answer correct and finding where I did a mistake part

unique wagon
#

maybe some computation, have u tried doing it again slowly?

#

first lets see if u understand the concept, how did u find ur characterisitc polynomial?

inner hare
#

I semi understand it but the tasks are very similar so I dont care so much about the theory part currently, just want to pass the practical part of the exam so I'm focusing on that

inner hare
#

but I'm intrigued as to why this computation didnt work

twin wolf
#

have u tried using cofactor expansion along a row or column

inner hare
#

no, but still if I use this method that I used I should get the correct answer

twin wolf
#

idk what method ur using but if its correct then maybe ur algebra is messed up

#

It should be (3-lambda)[(4-lambda)(-1-lambda) +4]

no because I used the sarrus rule

#

youre talking about development by columns or rows

#

did i get this right?

my answer was f(2) = 4, therefore x = 2

vast fossil
#

Are you sure there are no other solutions?

woeful pasture
#

how abt

#

consider the case for -x

neon rivet
#

oh we need to solve for two cases?

woeful pasture
#

yes

neon rivet
#

so f(-x)=4

#

im confused

woeful pasture
#

no like

#

-x = 4

neon rivet
#

if we sub numbers into x

#

we're gonna get a negative value which does not = to 4

woeful pasture
#

wdym

woeful pasture
neon rivet
woeful pasture
#

to solve f(x)

#

we consider which x s.t. f(x) = 4 for x < 0 and which x .s.t f(x) = 4 for x >= 0

#

u found that f(2) = 4 works for x >= 0

neon rivet
#

whats .s.t?

woeful pasture
#

now what is the case for x < 0?

#

such that

neon rivet
#

there is no f(x) = 4 for x<0

#

thats what im trying to say

#

because its -x

woeful pasture
#

are u sure

#

there is no x such that -x = 4 for x<0

neon rivet
#

yeah its a bit ambigious how can

#

positive y value = -x?

woeful pasture
#

lets start by drawing

#

ths

#

this

neon rivet
#

alr

#

@woeful pasture

woeful pasture
#

good

#

now draw y=4

#

how many intersections are there

cinder gull
#

What is the question asking?

neon rivet
#

Two intersections

woeful pasture
woeful pasture
#

u found x =2

#

whats the other one

#

the intercept is on x<0

neon rivet
#

Hmm

woeful pasture
#

consider -x = 4

#

what can x be

#

hint: multiply both sides by a number to get rid of the negative sign

cinder gull
#

💀

neon rivet
#

ohhh

#

so x = -4

cinder gull
neon rivet
#

gave me the answer

#

lolz

woeful pasture
#

yupp

#

so x=2, -4

neon rivet
#

appreciate it

woeful pasture
#

are the solutions

neon rivet
#

yes so is that it to the

#

question?

#

nvm that’s it thanks alot

hi guys, I'm preparing calculus 1 and while I was doing the old exercises I got this limit that I don't understand. In the first part highlighted in red my teacher uses asymptoticity, and replaces e^x -1 with x, which is 0 for x->0. Then he replaces cot with cos/sen and I don't understand why it tends to 1/x. In the blue part, use the hierarchy of infinities to solve it. Can you explain to me why cos/sen is replaced with 1/x?

Really weird to not use $1-\frac12x^2$ though, for $\cos(x)$
