I am confused, when I do p/q I have +-1, and 3/ +-1, +-5 so what should I do?
What like x^3(5x+9) -x(19x+3)?
x
better
now it's just a matter of plugging your potential roots in until one of them works
wait so it sohuld be x(5x^3+9x^2-19x-3)?
you'll have an easier time computing stuff with a cubic
Thats what i am confused about how do I start using p/q
you've generated a list of potential roots
now you need to start plugging them in to see if any of them actually are roots
so I have +-1, and 3/ +-1, +-5 and I need to plug em all in
I dont do like +-3/+- 5 for example
start with the smaller integers for easier computing
+-1, then +-3, then get frustrated if none of those work
So basically I took the stuff from p and put it over -+1 q right
i'm not sure what that means
like I was watching the organc chemistry tutor
and he said to divide the top with the bottom
and then plug in with what you get
indeed
so when I plug in do I have to do both versions of 1 or an I just do positive 1
one at a time
okay so if it has a remainder it dont work right?
I did it with 1 and had a remainder of -8
so does that automatically mean -1 wont work too
it doesn't mean that, no
that's why you have to check them all
(or at least check until one works)
okay
I got -3 to work
I'm also gonna assume 0 works as well right because each number in there has an x
so I know its 0, -3
but now I gotta use 1/5 and 3/5 right?
can you clarify which this is for
"so i know..."
since you know -3 is a root, you can factor your original expression and reduce it to a quadratic
well that will just give 0
Yeah I just realized hahah
smh deleting on me
How do I start this process?
(x+3) is a factor of the expression
so you know (5x^3+9x^2-19x-3)/(x+3) will have no remainder
yes
now compute (5x^3+9x^2-19x-3)/(x+3)
ngl I forgot how do to divide these
oh nvm
its either long division or synthetic right
either works
Which one do you prefer?
neither
Is there another way?
okay we already have that answer
5, -6, -1, and 0 but Idk what to do
so does it become 5x^4-6x^3-x^2
or smt?
wait sorry I have to go
Thank you for the help so far
Sorry
have a nice night\

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
1
write out the general form for two lines
and go through each of the conditions one by one
@buoyant jetty Has your question been resolved?
Explain
I don't got the direction nor a point
Unless I'm tripping
points 1 and 3 tell you the lines are in a plane and intersect with another line
can you get a point from those?
How do I do tthat
L1 intersects L and is in Pi1
so if L intersects Pi_1 at a single point, then you have a point for L1
@buoyant jetty Has your question been resolved?
@buoyant jetty Has your question been resolved?
I mean it's a line and Pi1 is a plane
maybe L is in Pi1
or parallel (making the question impossible to answer)
but usually a line will intersect a plane at a point
there could exist infinite amount of points for which the line satisfies the equation of the plane no?
i.e. the whole line is contained in the plain
@sand kindle
does there?
it could be, in which case you're spoiled for choice
but it's worth checking
anyways how would you tackle this type of exercise?
can you provide an outline of the general steps
@buoyant jetty how long do you sleep
@buoyant jetty Has your question been resolved?
6AM awake, 9:30 AM still awake
or where do you live
or do you wake up at 5AM or something

seems to me like you could use U(x) = e^integral{{cosx}dx}
You mean the integrating factor?
yeah
Does the integrating factor gets me directly y=(integrating factor)?
y' + P(x)y = Q(x)
e^integral{P(x)dx}
after you solve do
multiply both sides by integrating factor, basically you get
{U(x)y}' = Q(x)U(x)
then you integrate both sides to get
(U(x)y) = integral{Q(x)U(x)dx}
Okay thank you ill give it a shot

if (x-1) and x-2 are factors of x4+mx2+nx-16 find mn, I got told x-1=0 and x-2=0 but why do they equal 0?
If they are factors of the polynomial of 4th degree you can rewrite it as
f(x) = (x-1)(x-2)(x^2+...)
Now if you were to analyze the x-intercepts of f(x) you would do
(x-1)(x-2)(x^2+...) = 0
and due to the zero product theorem you deduce
x-1=0 and x-2=0
wdym analyze roots?
im not rlly sure what u mean cause idrk what a x^4 graph would look like and its maybe a bit too advanced of an explaination rn? idk tho cause the main thing is the second step
You don't to know how it looks
isnt that abt the x intercepts tho?
When you have linear factors, then you can read off the x-intercepts
And I stated the reason why above
wdym by that? srry im a bit dumb
(x-1) and (x-2) are called linear factors
They have the cool property that you can tell instantly the x-intercepts just by looking
(x-1) * bla bla bla
now if x = 1
you get 0 * bla bla bla = 0
that's an x-intercept
same with (x-2)
So this is the reason why you got told
I got told x-1=0 and x-2=0
so in the graph y=x-1 the x intercept is 1 but how does this relate to the main thing?
ike the x4 thingy
Let f(x) = that "x4 thingy"
Now you deduced x = 1 and x = 2 are x-intercepts
So you know
f(1) = 0 and f(2) = 0
And to me
that looks like you can determine m and n when you solve that system
bacc
Hi so sorry my dad called me to do smt
how do we know that if its only a factor of it?
I don't understand this question
how do we know that x4+mx2+nx-16 has x intercepts 1 and 2 based on the factors?
That is given from the task
If it has more
isn't really of interest for us
because the information provided is enough to deduce m and n
I will try to show one last time
ax²+bx+c is the addition quadratic factor that can be calculated with polynomial division but there is no need to
bacc
but why does finding x intercept help with this question?
It's an information about the function
That way you can set up equations
find such m and n that satisfy these constraints
but wont different x values give different results
i dont know what to say to this
is it like a really dumb question
i just dont understand
it
We just work with f(1) = 0 and f(2) = 0 the rest we don't know much and we dont care
If you plug in an x value into your function f(x) you get your y value
But you don't know what y value
it all depends on m and n
only x = 1 and x = 2 are an exception, here we know they are x-intercepts and so the y-value is 0
we don't know more
with these information you can create two equations and find such m and n that satisfy the constraint that (x-1) and (x-2) are factors aka x-intercepts
and then you can calculate the product of m and n
so we are finding the y value of x=0 and plugging that in to the equation with m and n to get y? im a bit confused
why x = 0
how are you coming up with that
you wanna find m and n
did you read the task?
oh wait y=0
you are finding m and n based on the fact that x = 1 and x = 2 yield both y = 0
this also what f(1) = 0 and f(2) = 0 mean
notation wise

I need help with B and C
so to find the price where the revenue is maxed out (before it starts decreasing) you need to find the vertex of the parabola
Do you know how?
No
do you know what the vertex is
If it's upside down yes, if it's upright it'll be the lowest
well I don't know what you've learned but the vertex can be found with x = -b/2a
where b and a are the co-efficients of the standard form of your parabola
so the equation you have is in factored form
you need to break appart these brackets
as in expand your equation
how?
you need to take the terms in the parenthases and distribute it to each term in the other parenthases

How can speed even be negative??
means its going down
Wouldn’t that be velocity??
I thought speed has no direction
And the ground is basically x2 right?
i would say yeah it isnt necessary to add the negative sign if it already mentions it going downward, but its just referring to the height
Like in a parabola
Ohh I see
So I just solve for the x intercepts and take the most right one? X2?
Oh no wait it asks for how long
How do I know here if to take one or two derivatives
This makes no sense now that acceleration is added too
Because in this question it doesn’t get taken into consideration but the ball obviously accelerates in a fall
But if I calculate it based on constant speed then it’d make no sense since it has no constant speed until it hits maximum velocity

@livid lance
yes.
i dont have a problem currently on me
but could you explain how i can convert measurements to differenet ones
yea
To solve a unit conversion, identify the units you want to convert between and find the conversion factor that relates them. Multiply the quantity you have by this conversion factor to get the value in said unit.
If you have any specific problems you would like to discuss, please don't hesitate.
maybe 30 kilometers to miles
1.61
Okay great
so you always are going to have the similar units on the bottom of the fraction like so:
30km = ?/1.61km
Because we are using miles it's going to be 30 Kilometers = 1 Mile/1.61
no shit
so that means 30 * 1.61 miles is wrong
then you can just try the other one, 30/1.61
idiot
no need for the language
thats what im saying
30 x 1/1.61 = 18.63
I am the teacher here, not you

<@&268886789983436800> this user lucas is being rude
I was helping this guy until u came in
and ruined everything
now ur making a scene 🤦
good job, you sure know how to wreck everything
You are making it a scene
You started here. quit it
you were being corrected and made a fuss over it
I wasnt
i was correct
he was being a jerk by saying I was wrong when I clearly wasnt
I wasn't trying to correct them
30km = ?/1.61km
implies
? = 30km * 1.61km
units would be incorrect
I was simply telling Lonely Tree (the question asker) a neat strategy
nah I am using the ? as the top unit in this case, miles
I guess but the way its taught in school is the other way
yes. and that equation your wrote implies something like
some miles = some km^2
not the mods 😭
do u understand
okay any other problems
irregardless of who's correct, saying "no shit idiot" or this ^ is uncalled for
so consider this a warning
nope ty for helping me
okay also try watching some youtube vids on it, it helps
I said no shit then called him an idiot for fighting back, i never said all of that

Which X do I minus
What do you mean?
Is it -5X or -7x
|A| = |B| means A = ±B
I don't get what the technique you're saying is
Ahhh so it’s 5X-2 and 7x+2
And 5X-2=-7x+2
No
Why not
You need parentheses
(5X-2)=(7x+2)
(5X-2)=(-7x+2)
.
Well now they are just two first degree equations, which you should know how to solve
Yes
And then after that +2?
Yes
Nope
The bottom one becomes:
5x - 2 = -7x - 2
==> 12x = 0 ==> x = 0
The -2 cancel each other out
Where did you get this from
It’s positive 2
Not negative
From here #help-33 message
(the second equation)
Yes
And the other side
Is positive 2
7x+2
Or when we do the negative
Does it make the 2 negative
It's -(7x + 2), which is -7x - 2
Of course!!
You should know first degree equations well, before doing exercises with abs values...
Ahhh
Thanks
So the whole equation is negative
Always
Wdym?
So the whole equation is always negative
It’s never always jus the x
I don't understand what you are saying, sorry
What does it mean for an equation to be negative? 🤔

The very last line 1241^1103 is congruent to …
how would i go about computing this?
the algorithm is called square and multiply
it could in principle be done by hand
but obviously for these numbers it would suck a bit
i’m abit confused, wdym
or actually, part of my hw is to find the 1030^29 mod 2623
but i’m not sure how either can be done by hand
well, stupid way: 29 steps
a bit smarter: 1030^29=1030*1030^28. so if you can find 1030^28 mod 2623 then you only need to multiply by 1030 again to get it
so far, nothing gained
the trick is in computing 1030^28 mod 2623
because 1030^28=(1030^14)^2
so if you find 1030^14 mod 2623, then you only need to square it to find 1030^28 mod 2623
2623=43x61 is the prime factorisation but i’m not sure if this would help either
ohh

hi
what have you done thus far
something along the lines of
on the top i put (x+1)(x-1) because i cubic rooted to remove the power 3
just like how you square root to the remove the power of 2
the cube root would apply to (x^3-1), not just x^3
and that doesnt help with this question anyways
the cubic root of 1 is still 1
no, (x^3-1)^(1/3) is not equal to x - 1
for example, (a+b)^2 is not equal to a^2+b^2
oh ok
so only square roots?
cause i did a square root here w 25 and it worked
do i only use the root tactic when i have a power 2?
no, there is no root tactic when finding limits - the only reason you might have gotten the right answer is because x^2-25 = (x+5)(x-5)
well its not a root tactic to solve limits its a root tactic for factorization
and then AFTER the factorization i solve the limit
thats not exactly how factorisation works as well: $\sqrt{x^2-25}\neq x-5$
Aman
yea well its just to factorize not solve
because when i get (x-5)(x+5)
i can the solve the limit by cancelling the top with the bottom in the division
then plug the limit number instead of the x
That's the idea, exactly
For the exercise the idea is the similar, just use another identity
Hint: difference of cubes
yeah thats fine, so with the current equation, just factorise x^3-1 and cancel out the denominator to find the limit
ok let me think
a3 – b3 = (a – b)(a2 + ab + b2)
isnt this the difference of cubes?
it would work since 1 is not cubed
1=1^3
so because its a 1 it can be whatever power i want it to be
yes basically
alright let me attempt this then
alright so the answer is 3
thank you guys for your help

I'm trying to find restrictions on $p$ and $q$ such that $\displaystyle \sum_n \f{(\ln n)^p}{x^q}$ converges where $p, q > 0$
this was what I got with the integral test
so is it just p > 0 and q > 1 or am I missing something

I need help figuring out how the 100 gor their in question 12 and why the t is multiplied instead of divided in question 11
Do you know the log rules?
the 100 comes from the 2
log₁₀(100) = 2
the plus 2 is inverted into log
I'm just wondering how did it even get up their. I though the 2 would be near the bottom with the b^6. At what step did we take the log of 2
I do know the rules but I'm still confused on how and when to apply them
We're not taking the log of 2
Can you think of a number which, if I took the log of that, would give me 2?
100
Right, substitute 2 = log(100) in there and apply the rules. What do you get?
@deft goblet Has your question been resolved?
Log a^1/3 - logb^6 + log 100. Wouldn't the 100 need to be near the a to appear in the numerator. Or dose the order of operations not matter hear?
No, the minus sign only applies to -1/6 logb because there's no parentheses around 1/6 log b + 2
Ooo think I understand so this would be equivalent to the awnser. But it's only 1 step away from solution
Thank you
Yes

i literally have no clue how to do this
try proving a simpler case
for two variables, 2(ab+1) > (1+a)(1+b)
similarily for c and d
but then
we get
ohhh damn
ill try thanks
:)
@true parcel i still don't get 8(abcd+1) though anywhere
@quasi sierra Has your question been resolved?
just an idea
but what happens if we express ur inequality in terms of the elementary symmetric polynomials?
oh wait nvm i've got it
No clue what you just said but kindly explain
expand out (1+a)(1+b)etc.
And then?
ye fine
but then 1 < d
so my idea was could we pair them off and prove i.e.
abcd + 1 > abc + d
which is true by rearranging
how do we prove it though like mathematically this all makes sense
rearrange that
(abcd + 1) - abc - d = (abc - 1)(d - 1) > 0
so then just write up how u paired them off basically

whats the significance of letting delta = infimum of 1 and 2/15 epsilon
i can just let delta = 2/15 epsilon and the proof should be done?
why involve 1
and why 1 specifically
i glanced over the thing so idk if this is what they've done
but i suspect it's because then you can say i.e.
$\delta^2 \leq \delta$
LY
often it's helpful to assume delta < 1 so then you can make everything a linear multiple of delta
that's what i suspect it's there for
In particular, see this part: 1 < x < 3 is equivalent to |x - 2| < 1
That's how you get to bound this thing, but that bound is only when you have the |x - 2| < 1

$(x^2-1)y''+x^2*y' + cot(x)y = 0$ I just want to make sure I am determining the singular points of this equation correctly. Is it just $x=1,-1,n\pi$ for $n \in \mathbb{Z}$?
Secret
yes thats it
ok would all those points be regular singular too?
wait but regular singularities aren't always removable
regular singularities is another name for removable singularities
but the ones above are not regular
true singularities!
no when i say regular singular point I mean this
oh nvm me then, i didnt study like this
so just perform that test
and deduce whether they are regular or not :p
ok makes sense and one more thing, do you know if the frobenius method gives the same indicial equation for all regular singular points?
ive heard of the Frobenius method, but i didnt dive too much into this to answer you :d

The channel i was posting my question in before was timed out since I went to sleep, but here is the last part of my question about arithmetic sequences I'm struggling with
This is what I've done so far:
At this point I see the telescoping series the sum makes, leaving only $1/a_1 - 1/a_k$
night night
But I'm not sure how this shows that the sum will always be less than 2
oh nvm
i just watched a tutorial on the partial sum decomposition for that part so im pretty sure its correct
bacc
So we have to prove that a_k > 0
bacc
bacc
The lowest value is 1/2
aren't you basically done?
you've shown that 1/(a1 + 1) + ... + 1/(ak + 1) = 2 - 1/a_k
and a_k > 0 obviously so we're done?
Ohh thank you, this makes sense! tyvm for the help

how do I find stationary points after implicit diff
say my function was x^2 + xy + y^2 = 3
so when i diff and simplify
$i get \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{2x + y}{x + 2y}$
Big Chicken
i get $\frac{dy}{dx}$ = $-\frac{2x + y}{x + 2y}$
David
Put the "$" on frac
ok
Swooped
you have the value of dy/dx
when it's = 0
then you will get y = ...
For this to equal zero what must happen
and you can plug it in this equation

ok yeah
u solve for y in teh dy/dx = 0
and sub it back in
ez

a and b (both natural numbers) gives different uneven remainders after being divided by 5. what is the remainder equal to if you divide the product of a and b by 5?
I did something like this but I don't know how to continue
I simplified it further
divided it by 5
Just $r_1 \cdot r_2$ mod 5
Probably
🤣 man mods make it so easy
David
wait
That should be all 

is there a property or something?
This step is not necessary
I cant
Just take the mod5 of the terms here
every term?
so I just mod5 the entire thing
Yup
David
I don't think you can simplify beyond $r_1 \cdot r_2$ mod5
David
That's the final answer
that's odd
😃
Lol
Remember the two rs were never assigned with any numerical value
No problem
You can verify with any two numbers
Like 7 and 6
yea i'll try and substitute
see what happens
I mean
it is given that
they're uneven
if that helps
And see if the remainder is r1*r2mod5
uneven * uneven = uneven right
I'll try and substitute uneven numbers and see what happens
thanks 👍
Yes

can anyone help me solve this class is functions and modeling, got to solve using a ti-84
What do you need help with? How to use the calculator to find the x values or how to interpret the graph
i guess both? Im kinda confused on how to find the largest value and the middle value (not sure if its the middle but the one question in the middle)
You can see that 0 will be the middle value right?
Without even graphing it
how so?
Because plugging in 0 will produce 0=0
Both terms have a variable and the other side is 0
that makes sense but im still kind of confused on how you knew the middle would be 0? is that a rule, when i found the smallest value i did the equation and graphed it then trace zero
No, I only noticed both terms have a variable so I thought to test 0 in my head and it ended up being a solution. I know it is the middle solution because I know there is a positive 3rd solution
oh i see
that makes sense
for the largest value though what 2nd trace should i use?
How did you find the smallest value
2nd-trace-zero
I can’t think of how that looks off the top of my head but, you should be picking the lower bound to the left of the rightmost 0 you see and the upper bound to the right of the rightmost 0
If you have it graphed as y=0.3x-0.2x^3
You should see three points where it crosses the x axis
graphed it on my TI, it doesn't look the same for some reason?
what are your window settings?
xmin = -5 xmax = 4 ymin = -1 ymax = 1
xmin=-100 xmax=100 then i zoomed 0 to find y values
i'll install discord on my phone and send you a pic of how it should look like, cause the graph i got has 3 intersections with the 0 line on x whihc should give you the right answer
Try zooming in perhaps? I graphed it on desmos and it looks different
had did you find the intersections on your calculator?
i just used switched to these
That looks right
check your mode perhaps?
mine looks like that now
i once used the wrong mode and got all the wrong graphs on a TI84
Try tracing from a point right after 0 and a point at the right end of the graph
if it looks like that now, try getting all the zero values again and it should bring you to the rigth answer
wym by this? Sorry this is my first math class in like 2 years im a bit dense
oooo i just read this sorry
nooo i thought your TI mightve been in degrees instead of radians. i remember that messing up some graphs of mine in the past but yours was just a window problem
ur good
if its working now theres nothing needed to change 😌
it doesnt give me any more trys on the problem but the answer was 1.22
yees
i didnt get that though, i used trace maxium and got 0.707
so how did you get 1.22?
you use zero to find the zero point of the very last intersection with x
so your smallest will be the very left intersection of the graph with x
middle will be the middle one
and largest will be the very right one
yes i jsut got that
kinda, so do i only use zero once and dont use mini or maxium?
yes, only use zero !!
ah i see
you can also plot a line y2 = 0 and use intersect to get the values
same results, depends on what you find easier
but im confused on how i got a negative for the smallest value
if we look at the graph, the furthest left intersection of the plotted graph that intersects with x is negative
the zero point is quite literally just x = -1.22 and y = 0. is that your question??
i think im just over complicating the problem ngl im sorry😂
yes? idk what u mean by that compltetely but
for every intersection of the graph with x, you use either zero or intersect to kind of lock the exact point you want coordinates of out to get the location of it
i guess what im getting confused about is not using a trace method to find the different values i see where the intersect is on the graph but i thought we had to use some sort of trace method to find the exact answer?
trace method ?
does that make sense or no? if not i understand it enough and apperaciate your help!
2nd trace
like value zero mini max intersect
yes. if you press 2nd trace and then press 2 again you get the option zero
yes i know that part
after pressing zero, you get the option to choose a left and right bound
do you get that part too?
np!!

when i finished synthetic divisioin i was left w 2x^2-10 so idk if i factored wrong or sm but i got the zeros right so its prolly mostly right
pretty sure this gives you a remainder of 0
yea so that was the verify part
thats not the part that i got wrong
but the quotien was 2x^2-10
mb entered the wrong thing while thinking
no thats mb i said the wrong thing
anyways factors should have been (x-rad5)(x+rad5) other than the existing 2x-1
ohhh did i not factor completely is that why
c has an extra 2
im also not entirely sure how you got a 2 there
factored the 2 out of 2x^2-10
anyways for c its just (2x-1)(x-rad5)(x+rad5)
its just asking for the factors
oh ok got it
so exclude the 2 from b as well?
ye
ok tysm
2 disappeared when u divided by 2x-1
