how do I begin these problems 😥 where do I start help
both of these questions are unsolvable with the information given.
!original
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
this is all she wrote uhmmm
Did your teacher verbally give any instructions
this might be a stupid question but are the x's the same for all the equations
No
I don’t think she said anything else guys I’m sorry
Lots of questions
all I remember is her saying we had to have these solved by next class yada yada
First one you can not find solution unless = 0 was missed
Second one something more is needed like what kind of triangle is that, are any sides equal etc etc
Third no idea
4th can be solved
5th function is given, what needs to be found?
so am I just screwed orrrr
Uhhh you probably missed her instructions then
you might want to contact your teacher on questions 1, 2, 3 and 5.
You are smart but questions are incomplete
Maybe your friend didn't hear properly
number 1 does = 0
okay so 2 of them are doable
then the others are… just
bruh

To find orthogonal trajectory of any family of curve, why we need to write d.e. of the curve
For ex.
xy=c we can write y=c/x and then differentiate it y'= -c/x²
then we find orthogonal trajectory from here
what do you to find the orthogonal trajectory from here?
replace dy/dx -> -dx/dy
so clearly you need dy/dx in order to do this
so i guess i'm not sure what you're asking
Wait a min
@static quarry
can you explain what you did here
I replaced
And then dx/dy=y/x => xdx=ydy
Then integrate both sides
This c is different from the c in the xy=c
ok
you should probably write out more details
and use a different letter instead of c
what is your question though?
Yeah my mistake
Are they both(left and right) orthogonal trajectory of xy=c?

@still temple it seems impossible in the first place
because they are all different, and there's not enough integers
they would grow further apart but then suddenly have to be close again

idk the idea to solve this
is this tech active?
Can you think of any ways to find ACD
isnt acd just 90 degrees
8th grade olympiad
no
oh then theres no tech
there was a question that requires me to use tan x
im in 9th grade bruh
didnt u have to use tanx
maybe teach me sin cos tan rules
i only know about tan x sin x and cos x
My bad CAD I mean
wait 9th grade is where trig is taught
think of alternate interior angles and youll get the answer
tell me the given answer
soh cah toa is a good acronym
wym
trigonometry?
In the figure, BCDE is a rectangle where 𝐵𝐶=24 𝑐𝑚, 𝐴𝐸=68 𝑐𝑚, and ∠𝐴𝐸𝐵=36°. ABC is a straight line. Calculate reflex ∠𝐸𝐴𝐷. Round off your answer to the nearest degree.
thats the informations
whats the answer according to you
what i got: ||49||
isnt that for right triangles
your attempt
it's for all
im not going to just tell you the answer
????
how
how did u get a negative angle 😭
cuz hypotenuse is longest side
since idk how to round them up
wym
they asked reflex
yeah
tell me the given answer
crazy
so how do you like
wait no
i mean the steps
to get it
like the idea
how do you apply sin cos tan
to get the answer
sin(theta) = opposite side/ hypotenuse side
you dont apply trignometry here 😭
at your stage these angles arent known
this is simple geometry
but grade 9 is pretty far, and it's an olympiad
yea it's 347
what
i thought it was only for like
right triangle
but EAD isnt a right triangle???
but there are right angle triangles???
u use the other information to help aid u to find the answer
like they are the tools to help u get to a goal
yea i used those
so with a calculator u can work out the lengths as sin(theta) = o side divided by h side[from my diagram]
Yeah I just fricking read that
I was doing this in my car actually
So I didn’t pay attention
Sorry to intrude btw
its ok
is this in cad
did u get how to find the other side
or other triangles
not really
u can do that in all right angled trigles
so eg we look at ABE (only angle is inside that triangle)
we can work out BA and AE with sin and cos
since sin(36) = BA/68 (o/h)
we can times sin(36) by 68
*remember ur calc has to be in degrees
u get BA as somewhere around 39.969
now are u able to figure out BE? (BE/AE = cos(36))
do you know how to find the value of sin18 and sin36? u shouldnt as thats taught in like grade 11
Just find line AD using cosine rule and then use cosine rule again to find the angle EAD
That’s it
bro he doesnt know that sintheta=o/h 😭
i guess
i know that i just dont know the next idea
Then why is he even doing the question
its okay, dw
Is there a law cosamis?
in like 2 more years youll find the exact value of sin36
wym
or cosine law (im not a big fan of this rule)
Nvm you haven’t learnt it then
I mean I can teach you it here if you’d like
theres like 5 to 3 questions that requires me trigonometry
sure
Okay
i need to learn trigonomtry
So you do you know how to label triangles already for basic trig?
yea
k
basically finding unknown angles/sides in a non right angle trianlge using trignometry
Look at the rule at the bottom
the formulas what is actually useful
Notice how the angles of the triangle are labelled with upper case
And the sides with lower case
Also the side and the angle opposite it will always be the same letter
Yes
alr
So in this case for the question first we can use cosine rule to find the line AD
lemme try
That line
im thinking , what about simple geometry
The diagram isn’t to scale so how can simple geo be applied tbf
eh
trigno
Let me check on my calc
You should get 7118.531063
And then obviously you square root
Giving 84.37
It might be that you didn’t use brackets in your calculator
So it did the order of operations wrong
Did you get 84.37 cm
yea
nice
Okay so now we have the length of all three side sides to the triangle
Can you see there is a rearranged version of cosine rule for finding angles?
yea
sure
cos (a) = 0,973?
cos rule is 1 step but problem is if they even learned cos rule, ik yr 9 must have touched on trig but idk abt cos rule
I did cosine rule in year 9
my school just learned about indices
Depends on the curriculum
yea
trur
Now we need to get the angle by itself
So we multiply that by cos-1
There should be a small cos- button above the regular cos button on your calculator
yea
i think most places it's yr 10/11 or advanced yr 9 classes
im placed in gifted class for math and still havent learned about trigonometry is crazy
Press that and put the answer we just got in the brackets
ok hold on
The 0.973 one
bruh lol
Maybe you’re learning other topics first. Have you done series?
what is series (because idk the translate in my country)
it gives 13
In my country it’s called iteration but in America I think it’s called sequences series one second I’ll find a picture
like patterns kinda?
Yes 13.304
cool
oh if its about that,
my school havent learned it but i already have
hm
Like have you ever been taught problems that look like this?
Because it could be your school is teaching other topics before geometry
ah arithmetic and geometric sequencing stuff
ur school is crazy
fr
Oh cool
what r u even learning
idk bro
algebra?
Yeah just make sure you do loads of self study at home bro
😭
oooh probability?
do you have any suggestion on what to learn
and where
yea
prob is fun
i hate prob
:0
I’d suggest looking at your countries national curriculum
i have to learn like star and bars theorem if im not wrong
And going through every topic
for olympiad
Ah i see
where should i learn
do i watch like youtube
or something
or buy a book
btw what do we do afterwe get 13.304
Watch loads of YouTube videos and go through books regularly. You can see #competition-math for more info and tips for olympiads
alright
360-13.304 cuz reflex
You can also ask on #book-recommendations for Olympiad books
cool
Due to Covid?
ohhh yeah
no
olympiad
but in like
other country
so i had to travel
Ah ok
is there no rule for tan
or is it to advanced for me
and if i got like 73.5 do i round it up to 74
there is none
yea
cuz closest degree
then i basically got one question wrong
I think so but it’s very advanced
i dont think they teach this
damn
ah thats why
Depending on the values the question gives you, you will have to decide on which rule to use
u need to use normal sin/cos/tan to get another angle
Like for sine rule you can only use it if you have a side AND the angle opposite THAT side and then another side which you will find the opposite angle of
I’d recommend doing plenty of questions
Khan academy has resources I believe
ohhhh
i see
but in this case
i can use both right
i can use sin(c)/c = sin(a)/a
and also the cos(a)
Yes for the last step we could have done sin(36)/ 84.3 = x/24
Okay so basically
1 on 1 tutoring 🤩
Normally we would divide 25 by 5 right?
ye
But for sin cos and tan you can’t exactly divide by them
So instead you simply multiply the value by minus version i guess for sin cos tan
Yess
i see
nice

found this relation in wikipedia, when i graph them they don't like up, is it because i need to have more terms?
increased it to 300 nothing happened
especially sus how they are exactly 1 unit apart
I think the equality holds if it goes to infinity
Try 201 and let the other be 200
oh so it doesn't work when s is about smaller than 0
No not that
2 i mean
The sum has to have infinite terms
I figured for example η(0) = 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + ... etc
Make one odd and the other even
Make the blue 201
So with infinity I assume they converge to the same thing

guys what formula is that in letter B?
first find ab (pythag) then minus db,
if b is the centre of the circle then db has to be 8 :P
the only thing i could imagine is using trig on this
yeah this
oh my bad lmao, I didn't look properly
CB = DB is radius
so if you have AB you can find AD
i can't imagine 2 * 8cm * cos(0.9rad) being a nice expression
to answer your question, the formula used is $\cos(\alpha)=\tfrac{\text{projection of C onto AB}}{BC}\Leftrightarrow \text{projection of C onto AB}=r\cos(\alpha))$
afterwards we multiply by 2 to obtain AB, because it's isosceles
pixel
ohhhh yeahhh
Ahh my discord is broken
no ignore me I was being silly, late night exhaustion thingz
but CB=DB is right
ohh yess
ok i’ll try to understand it
ohhh so we find the length of the line from C to midpoint of AB?
yes
wait
not exactly
we find this length
where the red scribble is under
that's why we use cos
because it's adjacent
oops wait, yes that one!
okkk thank you so much
i get it now
thank you everyone!!
🥲

i would really appreciate help, thanks
i can solve a limit, but an issue is that i dont know what an end result is
after solving it i get 5/0, is that ∞, is that what? how can i know, i really searched the internet but no help
another example of me trying to understand the pattern
we often to functions with ln, so that means ln0 is -∞, so i understand that
figuring out the asymptotes on a function*

I know that sin^-1(2/3) = x
Is sec^-1 the same as cos^-1 with adj and hyp swapped?
So if I put cos^-1(4/5) is that alright? -- the hw didn't like my answer after I did that
I think I made progress, but it didn't like my new answer either :/
Well, the idea is that you want to write out sin(x + y), and find the trig function values you may not directly know...
so like
sin(sin^-1(2/3) + cos^-1(4/5))?
Not exactly like that, you don't want to do it like that
You know how to expand out sin(x + y) in general right?
(don't worry about what x and y are, for now)
It's not the same as sin(x) + sin(y) right?
No 
bingo
I got the same number after plugging in X and Y
X = 0.7297276562
Y = 0.6435011088
sin(x+y) =about 0.980547
It didn't like my answer though 🤔
Tell the website to fuck itself
They always do stuff like that 😭
“The answer was a = x NOT x = a”

Hello! Question regarding "partial fraction decomposition"... Does this still work if you have a constant "b" multiplied by the "s" in the denominator? I.e. when you have 1/(bs^2 + s) and you factor out the s so that you get "1/((s)(bs + 1))". Can you still equate this to =(A/s) + (B/(bs+1))?
I assume it's a "yes", but if there is a "no" as an answer, I would like to understand why 
Yes. Factor the b out of (bs+1)

You have 21 cells that can contain a random value of 52 elements. each row contains 7 cells, each column contains 3 cells. what is the probability to have exactly no duplicates in a row. what is the probability of 2 duplicates, 3, 4, 5, 6?
!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
I believe i have the probability of no duplicates: P(52, 7) / 52^7), but the rest i cant quite figure out
P(52,7) being the number of ways of taking 7 items out of 52?
If so that seems correct to me
Cool, now lets look at 2 duplicates
So... how many different ways do you think they can be placed?
Like, if I have 4 slots and 2 of them are the same, my options are
[S S _ _]
[S _ S _]
[S _ _ S]
[_ S S _]
[_ S _ S]
[_ _ S S]
Where S is used to label which of the two slots have the same value
P(52,5) ?
Actually, when you say "the probability of 2 duplicates" do you mean "the probability that a row has 2 of the same value"
yes sorry, and then 3 of same value, ... 7 of same value
Great, just wanted to be sure I wasn't trying to solve the wrong problem 🙂
So I think you're on the right track here, but you're maybe a bit off
Well, if you have 2 duplicates that means that there will be 6 unique values right?
So in that case P(52,6) would seem a likely answer
Yeah, there's 5 unique values and 1 duplicated value, so 6 values total
yea
However, if you only care about that then you might fail to account for both of these cases
[1 1 2 3 4 5 6]
[1 2 2 3 4 5 6]
Both of these have a duplicated value, and all the values are in order, but the way they're duplicated isn't
Does that sort of make sense?
right, the order of which they are the same value doesnt matter
I'm not quite sure what you mean
What I'm trying to say is that where the duplicated values are in the list matters
Yup!
there are 2 4's and they arent adjacent
Yeah, in my example above I put them adjacent for ease of viewing rather than anything else
Yeah not quite, it needs to be modified slightly
So do you think you can come up with a formula for the number of ways the duplicate pair could be placed in the list?
Like I have in this example
btw, I'm assuming you're in a probability or combinatorics class
If that correct?
yes but this is for a side project which is so confusing to me
Well alright in that case I'll be a bit less vague
i got something like **(C(7, 2) * C(52, 1) * (52 - 1)^(7 - 2)) / 52^7 ** for having 2 duplicates(3 of same value)
oh
Now I get it lmao
Okay so there's 4 unique values and 1 value that shows up 3 times
Right right
Okay then, well you'll have 5 different values so P(52,5) is right for funding those values
But for each pick of 5 values, there is a number of ways the duplicates can be placed in the row
So there will be 3 positions out of 7 that will have the same value, do you know a formula that can give you all different combinations of positions?
i.e, you have the values a,b,c,d,e and know that a will be present 3 times, how many different ways can the a values be put in the row
C(7,3)?
Okay
Well working from this equation, P(52,7) is the number of ways you can pick 7 unique elements from 52 in order, and 52^7 is the number of ways you can have 7 elements out of 52 in order
So P(52,7)/52^7 gives the probability of the 7 being unique, because it's the # of options that meet our criteria divided by the total number of options
If you understand how that all works, do you think you can use what we've discussed in order to find the # of ways that there are 2 duplicates in the row?
Feel free to tell me if you need me to clarify
All good!
Well, in the example of a,b,c,d,e where a is duplicated 3 times, there were C(7,3) ways those duplicates could be distributed right?
So for any pick of 5 values there should be C(7,3) different ways for the duplicate values to be distributed
right
And there are P(52,5) ways to pick 5 unique values with order
So there are P(52,5) ways to pick the values, and for each pick of values there is C(7,3) different ways they could be distributed
Does that make sense? I am still skipping a couple details in my thinking so I could get into them
think so
Cool cool, so then do you think you can come up with a formula for the number of ways the row could have 2 duplicates?
Like how P(52,7) is a formula for the number of ways a row could have no duplicates
P(52,5) = 5 unique elements out of the 52
C(7,2) = 2 different ways to choose
P(52,5) * C(7,2) / 52^7
not too sure tho
That's correct!
wat
Or, close to correct actually
You would actually want C(7,3), since having 2 duplicate values means there are 3 positions with the same value
P(52,5) * C(7,3) is the number of ways to order 7 elements where 3 are the same
lmao no prob
sorry 1 more thing, shouldnt this equal out to 1
Well sum of the probabilities of:
- no duplicates
- 1 duplicate
- 2 duplicates
- 3 duplicates
and so on up to 6 duplicates should be 1, is that what you mean?
Right
Is that not what you got?
I got .97
I got something similar, I'm looking to see if I screwed up somewhere...
OH!!
I see the problem now, this won't add up to 1 because it doesn't account for multiple duplicates
Like, duplicates of different values within the same row
@digital hatch does that make sense?
Yeah, glad I could help 🙂

16 + 4 * 8
I don't understand how you got 16 + 3 * 4
And 2^3 = 8
Yeah

@fresh fiber because there's only one way to have a first instance of something
It would have gotten slightly more complicated if there were more than 8 bits though

I need help with a Linear Algebra quesition: Show that the span of any non-empty subset is a vector subspace. My answer so far is that the span of a vector space was a subset of the vector space. What I have for an answer is: let V be a vector space in R^2. Suppose x = [a b] and y = [c d]. Then the span of V = A_1 x + A_2 y = e_1 and e_2 depending on the values of A_1 and A_2 and both of these basis vectors are subspaces of the vector space V
I don't think you should go into bases here.
I'm also not sure what you mean by "V = A_1 x + A_2 y = e_1 and e_2".
The span of some collection of vectors from a space V is the set of all possible linear combinations of the vectors in that collection.
If you take some nonempty subset W of a vector space V, then W is a vector subspace if :
- W is closed under vector addition (from vectors in W)
- W is closed under scalar multiplication.
So in particular, take two arbitrary vectors in the span, W, make sure their sum is in W.
Then take a vector and scale it, make sure it's still in W.
So, what I am getting from your explanation is that we will set V to be a vector space and W to be V's span. We will then assign two arbitrary vectors x and y. Understadning what a span is, the linear combination of x + y = W. We then scale the vectors to make sure that it reamins within W?
No. We set V to be a vector space, and W to be the span of some collection of vectors in V.
Alright so we have the Vector Space V and the span of W which is some collection of vectors in V?
Since W is a span of some collection of vectors ${v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_n}}$, any vector in W is a linear combination of those, that is they all have the form
$$b_1 v_1 + b_2 v_2 + \ldots + b_n v_n$$ where $b_i$'s are scalars.

Okay yes, I understand up to here
How do I then take what we have here, to prove that the span is a subspace of the vector space V?
If you take two vectors of that form with arbitrary scalars, can you show that their sum is also some linear combination of vectors in the collection?
Well I know you could, but I cant think about how you would in a general sense?
Like I can think of examples, however I cannot think of a generalized solution
Let's say we just have 3 vectors for the sake of my hands.
Then one vector in $W$ could be $$u = a_1 v_1 + a_2 v_2 + a_3 v_3$$ and another could be $$w = b_1 v_1 + b_2 v_2 + b_3 v_3.$$
Azyrashacorki
What does u+w give you?
Would $$ u + w = v_1 (a_1 + b_1) + v_2 (a_2 + b_2) ... ?$$
Zerofall
Yes, and so is it still a linear combination of the starting vectors ?
Yes?
Yeah its just a different scalar
Say c_i = a_i + b_i
So that means it's closed under vector addition.
You need to show it's also closed under scalar multiplication. Do you think you can tackle this one?
Yes I can!

Let ( f(x) ) be a differentiable function. The curve ( y = f(x) ) and the curve ( y = \arctan(x) ) have a common tangent line at the point ( \left(1, \frac{\pi}{4}\right) ). Then find the limit:
[ \lim_{n \to \infty} n \left[ f\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right) - \arctan\left(\frac{n}{n-1}\right) \right] ]
miyo
My idea is using the definition of derivative maybe, but idk how to use it
@small stream Has your question been resolved?
I would first get rid of the arctan(n/(n-1)) by splitting up the limit
You can add and subtract arctan(n/(n+1)) which doesn't change the expression
So you'll have one +arctan(n/(n+1)) and one -arctan(n/(n+1))
Take the negative one, pair it up with the f term
Take the positive one, pair it up with the arctan(n/(n-1)) term
Then split up the limit
[\lim_{n \to \infty} n\left[\pmap{f}{\frac{n}{n+1}} - \pmap{\arctan}{\frac{n}{n+1}}\right]]
damn my latex
Why do we do this
Because now we have n/(n+1) in both the f and the arctan
The second limit should be doable, haven't tried it but I'll leave it to you
For the first limit, it might be easier to see what's going on if you define g(x) = f(x) - arctan(x)
If f and arctan are tangent at x = 1, what does that imply about g?
@small stream ?
I was thinking how to use the definition to compute the second limit😭
It should be related to the derivative of arctan(x) at x = 1
[ ( f(1) = \arctan(1) ), so: g(1) = f(1) - \arctan(1) = 0 ]
[ g'(1) = f'(1) - \frac{d}{dx}\left[\arctan(x)\right]{x=1} = 0 ]
miyo
[ \arctan\left(\frac{n}{n+1}\right) \approx \arctan\left(1 - \frac{1}{n}\right) \quad \text{and} \quad \arctan\left(\frac{n}{n-1}\right) \approx \arctan\left(1 + \frac{1}{n}\right) ]
miyo
Hmmm but how to continue
That's a hint for the arctan difference limit
The difference is 1/2n
RedstonePlayz09
This is also true in general
You can prove it by adding and subtracting f(x) in the numerator I'm pretty sure
Wow!!
[ \lim_{n \to \infty} n \left(\arctan\left(1 - \frac{1}{n}\right) - \arctan\left(1 + \frac{1}{n}\right)\right) = \lim_{n \to \infty} -\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{\arctan\left(1 + \frac{1}{n}\right) - \arctan\left(1 - \frac{1}{n}\right)}{\frac{2}{n}} ]
miyo
Yup
Well done
Now it's just a matter of converting limits in x to a limits of a sequence
But that should be obvious, taking the sequence x_n = 1/n
[ -2 \cdot \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{\arctan(1+h) - \arctan(1-h)}{2h} ]
miyo
Alright so what do you get?
Wait why -2😭
To cancel out the 2
In the original limit here, we have the arctan(1 - 1/n) being the positive term
We switch the order of the atctans, and get a minus in front
The n becomes 1/n in the denominator, and we add a 2 in the denominator and in the front (to not change the value)
You got it?
Yes
-1
.
[g'(1) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{g(1 + h) - g(1)}{h}]
miyo
I recommend writing it using the other definition
with x and x_0
$f'(x_0) = \lim_{x \to x_0} \frac{f(x) - f(x_0)}{x - x_0}$
RedstonePlayz09
Wait
Actually it doesn't matter
Ehh
I just want my variable to go to 1
instead of 0
So either use h, and the substitute
Or use this for x_0 = 1
miyo
Yeah
Ok that's fine I guess
Ok actually it's a bit annoying
Would be better if we had + there
Wait
We could've just used this immediately without splitting up the limit
Goddamit
😂
My bad
Wwwdym
Well out limit is that, with h = 1/n and with - inside the arctan in front of the h
f(1 + h) - arctan(1 - h)
With 2h
miyo
So it's just 0?
No
Wait
Uh
Ok subbing h = 1/n gives us
well actually
h = -1/(n+1)
Or not
Does it not work?
How do we get the n-1
h= n/(n+1) - n/(n-1)?
That's 2/n
Ok wait
let me just write it down
It's actually not really working idk
Just because of the n+1 and n-1

Well I guess splitting up the limit is fine
We can't just sub in some h = x_n to this
It wont give us what we need immediately
Sub in h = -1/(n+1) here
See that it gives us what we want
Or not
Where does -1/(n+1) come from
I just chose it so that 1 + h will be the n/(n+1) we need
And it's fine since as n goes to infinity, -1/(n+1) = h goes to 0
Technically we're only using the 0- side of the limit I think
$g'\left(1\right) = \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{f\left(1 - \frac{1}{n+1}\right) - \arctan\left(1 - \frac{1}{n+1}\right)}{-\frac{1}{n+1}}$
miyo
This leads us nowhere
Why not
1 - 1/(n+1) is??
Oh bruh its n+1
Man I messed up somewhere I swear it works
One sec
Ok
$\lim_{x \to 1} \frac{g(x)}{x - 1} = 0$
RedstonePlayz09
That's from g'(1)
Now, sub in x = 1 - 1/n
$\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{\pmap{f}{1 - \frac1n} - \pmap{\arctan}{1 - \frac1n}}{-\frac{1}{n}} = 0$
RedstonePlayz09
Yeah just plug in h = -1/n I'm dumb
FUCK
kill me
What is going on I'm confusing the n and n+1
Forgive me
Ok you know what
It's fine with n+1
You just need an extra factor
Which you can get
It's fine
h = -1/(n+1)
Sorry :Xd:

$\lim_{n \to \infty} n\left[ \pmap{f}{\frac{n}{n+1}} - \pmap{\arctan}{\frac{n}{n+1}} \right]$
RedstonePlayz09
$=\lim_{n \to \infty} (n+1)\left[ \pmap{f}{\frac{n}{n+1}} - \pmap{\arctan}{\frac{n}{n+1}} \right]$
RedstonePlayz09
It's the same
Just add a copy of f(n/(n+1)) - arctan(n/(n+1))
The limit of that is 0
And you can get this from here
.
That should be it
Anyways maybe someone that isn't a monkey can find a cleaner way to do this
All of these n's, (n+1)'s and (n-1)'s are really making me go insane
On another note: I remember I tried answering your question with f''(e) = 2f'(e)/(1 - e) and the channel timed out.
My hint for you on that one is define g(x) = (1 - x)^2 * f'(x)
Lmao but this really give me headaches, i need to reorganize a bit
And use rolle's theorem on g (the interval is not necessary (0, 1))
Yeah I understand
Alright I have to go, good luck
Thank you!
Np!
These also make me feel confused btw

I need help with this physics problem. I'm lost at what equation to use. The equations I'm given in my physics sheet don't fit.
What I got so far is Velocity Initial at 0m/s, Velocity final at 32m/s, Position final at 0m and Position final as ?
do you know the equations of motion?
do you have the "timeless" kinematic equation?
u could assume acceleration?
At 0m/s?
Oh right
WTF UR HERE
But is it going to be acceleration due to gravity or just g
I watch ur vids everyday 😭❤️@ember saffron
Nicee
I'm lowkey kinda a dumbass rn because I just started class
Gl on school :)
Thx g
Nah is ok, we all learn by time
wtf the geo dash yt 😭
I suck at maths to xd
I never noticed lmfao
Oh , I suck at that too lmao
Anyway lets continue the problem
I only good at chemistry
Yea sorry for interfering
ur g
@royal flicker Where would my position be then?
tell me the 3 equations of motion
Velocity final = Velocity Initial + Acceleration x time
he has the equations they give for ap I think
Summation of Fx = 0
ok
but this wont help for this problem
there are 2 more equations which have been given
Position final = Position initial + velocity initial x time + 1/2 times acceration x time squared
look at the first 3 equations of this page
this also wont help us i will explain later why
ik those are the ones I'm referring too
what is the last equation?
Velocity final squared = Velocity initial squared + 2 x acceleration (position final - position intial)
This is what I got so far
and ig we can assume acceleration is -9.8 m/s
yes
then you use this equation
Ok let me try it
I'll let you know when I finish it and we can go over it.
ok
This is where I am at
I think I did something wrong
Because my answer would be -0.019 m
yes you made a mistake in solving the equation formula is correct
What did I do wrong?
its a mathematical error you should try to find the error yourself
if you are unable to i will help
oh is X initial suppoted to be negative?
Wait hold on
just for clarity
Is this equation
(32) squared = 2x -4 times 8x - velocity initial?
no
OHHH WAIT
this eqution simplified witll look like this
wrong channel
Go to #help-21|아리스킨충1
and then you would be dragged into a private session
multiply 2x times -9.8x
divide 9.8x2 both sides to find x
Could u just mutliply them first then divide?
Thats the step I would have taken
but it doesn't make since in the equation I have
yeah
yes
yes
(32m/s)^2 = 1024 m^2/s^2
yes
then it would equal
1024m^2/s^2 / 2(-9.8m/s) = x
So 1024 m^2/s^2 / -19.6 m/s = x
Will give me -52.244 m
But that still doesn't make logical sense
why
