yea
ah i meant if a∈kerφ
mb
lol I mean sqrt(o²) but actually I understand now
,, \sqrt{o^2} := \abs{o} = \text{lol}
𝔸dωn𝓲²s
what exactly are you confused about?
Actually I think I am done, I will finish it later.
I will consider the cases of phi being bijective or not and G being of finite or infinite order
thanks for the help!

i get the result 2e^-2(1+2sin^2 t) :/
no we are just simplifying this.
yea
(2cos^t + 4sin^2 t)e^-2 = 2e^-2(1+sin^2t)

Soit une fonction phi : [0,pi/2] -> R et de classe C1, et avec une ipp tu montres que l'intégrale de 0 à pi/2 de phi(t) sin((2n+1)t) dt converge vers 0
Pour la 2
Tu laisses phi(t) = u
Dans la formule
Donc
On a le produit d'un truc qui converge vers 0 et d'une suite bornée
Ca déduit la convergence vers 0
Ensuite
Après
Tu peux montrer que la fonction 1/t - 1/sin(t) vérifie les conditions de phi
Donc que c'est une classe C1 sur 0,pi/2
(Avec des équivalents et des continuité de dérivées, prolongement...)
Et après
Enfin
jai pas trop compris ça
Autrement dit
ahh
C'est la suite qu'on a dit qui converge vers 0
C'est pas vraiment majorée ici
comment?
C'est surtout que ça converge par produit de suite bornée par une suite convergente
En particulier vers 0
Et comme c'est les même
Bah Un - Jn -> 0
Donc
Jn -> Un
ah
test de la comparaison directe
j'ai compris ta méthode
Je ne savais pas qu'il portait un nom
Good to know
of course, my friend
Et pour le dernier tu pose u = (2n+1)t
Fais attention aux bornes
Et tu auras ton résultat
bah j'ai cru que le dernier était le plus dur
Non pour le coup c'est plus le deuxième
Peut être qu'il y a une méthode plus courte
Mais la j'avais que celle là en tête
Tout va bien pour la 2 ?
oui, mrci bcp

can anyone explain how they got this, i understand everything up to the bit highlighted in the red box
They substituted back in for t using t =√3 tan(theta) + 1
Solve for tan(theta) then use Pythagorean identities to solve for sec(theta)

okay so, I need to find a counterexample to the conclusion of this lemma for when A is not closed, but I'm kinda doubting my negation of this statement
hint: ||think about 1/x||
am I proving that
for any open U containing A, there doesn't exist a smooth function st both of the two properties hold; or am I proving that there exists an open U containing A st there isn't a smooth function st both of the properties hold
I just need the negation rn so I know what I'm proving 
idk why these statements always trip me up
you don't have to prove the negation
you have to prove the original statement becomes false in general
if A is not supposed closed
but which statement is the one that becomes false?
"false in general" = not(true for every instance of A, f)
that's my confusion rn
what about U?
is U arbitrary, or can I choose one?
that's primarily my confusion I think
well that could also be part of your counterexample
right, okay
if you show that there is a U such that this doesn't apply
then the statement is false in general too
hmm, can I share smth?
sure
this surely doesn't work, right?
I chose A, f, and U here
ah, do I need to prove that every smooth extension doesn't have at least one of the desired properties?
because I only proved it for one, I think
namely the identity
also wait, the support of f~ is R, not R \ 0
@spark otter hm, does this work better? 
hm, I guess this works 
it makes sense to me
thanks for the hint @spark otter

I'm curious what rules we can apply here to find out the answer?
ln(e^3)
According to my book there is a rule we can use so-called e^ln(x)=x, but I don't see the relation between those 2
What do you mean by the relation between those two ?
$f^{-1}(f(x)) = x$ for appropriate domain and range
Pro_Hecker
Actually you also have that ln(e^x) = x
Well how would one solve this in a logical order?
ln(e^3) = ln(eee)
Because also in the book it says that
10^x = a <=> x = lg(a), can we just simply distribute 10^x as a?
So we would get x = lg(10^x), make 10 a constant instead so it becomes lg(a^x) = x?
Ln is a log base e
Here it is log_10(10^x) = x, the base of the log needs to be the base inside
Are you familiar with the usual rules for powers?
yes
Well, log rules are just power rules in disguise, try and translate the problem into a power rule problem
In e^ln(x) = x
The question would be, what number does x have to be in e^ln(x) to get x
but in ln(e^3), it's a different format
I mean also this is just this btw, it’s almost by definition
But how can you explain that rule?
If you'd start with ln(e^3), what would your next step be, if you weren't familiar with that rule
If you’re aware that log and exp are inverses of each other this becomes easier, but alas.
Call ln(e^3) some number y, that is
ln(e^3) = y,
now using the rule you only know somehow; namely that e^ln(x) = x, then we get that
e^3 = e^y, what number y satisfies this?
I understand that part, but what are the steps you took between going from ln(e^3) = y to e^3 = e^y. You used e^ln(x) = x, but in what step?
Hm I think I start to understand as
lg_a(a) = 1, meaning that
e^ln(e^3) = e^y, would become
e^3*ln(e) = e^y (multiply with 1)
e^3 = e^y
I’m only using the rule you gave us, that e^ln(x) = x
$e^y = \textcolor{red}{e}^{\textcolor{red}{\ln}\textcolor{red}{(}e^3\textcolor{red}{)}} = e^3$
bee [it/its]
Ah I think I understand now
I wasn't really aware that we could just lift the whole equation up with e^, so that you'd get the right format of the rule I gave
It might be easier if you think of it as just applying a rule to both sides, namely if e^ corresponds to exp() of something, would that seem more comfortable?
I'm not quite sure what exp() does, as this book first covers log and ln
I'd assume it's just the opposite of log
Oh it’s still e^ but with a different notation, I’m simply wondering if you would think it’s more comfortable that you’re allowed to apply a rule to both sides of an equation, that is going from x = y to f(x) = f(y), where f() is some rule, like e^
Ah right, just as we can apply it with logs you mean? that a = b <=> lg(a) = lg(b)
Right, you’re just applying something to both sides
The same thing that is of course
So what you did, is that allowed with all sorts of numbers?
that if a = b <=> 10^a = 10^b for example
As long as the operation/rule you’re applying is defined for the numbers
Going from -1 = -1 to log(-1) = log(-1) might be weird
That makes sense, I think I've just more struggled with it as so far we haven't come across a question that makes you take the base equation as the exponent
Keep at it, you’ll be more comfortable at it with experience
Thanks for the help anyways! I really appreciate it, makes a lot of the questions a lot more easy to solve 😄

,, x^2y''-xy'-3y=x^2\log x
𝔸dωn𝓲²s
This was your ques
Yess can you help with it
no sorri
Ok
It's a Cauchy-Euler equation if you look at the x^n terms, so maybe try the substitution x = e^u
This is an equation of the form $P(x) y'' + Q(x) y' + R(x) y = S(x)$
Katharine
smart people have solutions for these kinds
:D
have found solutions
idk if you have to use a specific method
@hard berry Has your question been resolved?
If you consider $x = e^u$ you can turn the differential equation into one in terms of $u.\$
So $y(x) = y(e^u) =: z(u)$, now you need to calculate $y'$ and $y''$ wrt. $u$ using the chain rule and you will turn it into a linear differential equation with constant coefficients.

Help
I have a simple continuity proof which I have just crafted. Please help me to check if it’s rigorous
Still need you
mm, the proof works, but it's a formatted in a pretty clunky way 
How to improve it because I am not studying mathematics as major, so formatting is hard for me 😭😭
what definition? what is "it'?
From where is this definition?
but you don't know that 1/x^2 is uniformly continuous yet
really, what you're doing in the first part is scratch work in order to find delta
if, yes
but you can instead just do the scratch work on the side
and in the final proof, omit it
like
Like the later part?
Let $\varepsilon > 0$. Choose $\delta = \frac{\lambda^3 \varepsilon}{2}$. Then for any $x, y \in [\lambda, \infty)$, if $|x - y| < \delta$, then (your computation goes here), so $\left|\frac{1}{x^2} - \frac{1}{y^2}\right| < \varepsilon$, which means that $\frac{1}{x^2}$ is uniformly continuous on $[\lambda, \infty)$.
higher!
this is the kind of structure that the proof should ideally take
Can I write the conclusion and then use it to implies the uniform continuity if it is required to write all steps
Can you explain this step
I mean I am probably going to take real analysis next year
I can't parse this sentence 
This is easy, bcs I factor out (x-y) and then I separate x/x^2y^2 +y/y^2x^2
adonis is probably asking about the <=
ikr but then you do some lambda wamba trick
so what?
So the expression is bounded
why does this mean that 1/x^2y < 1/lambda^3
Because it is bounded from above
Like it can greater than 2/lambda for that part right
I mean I ain’t studying math 😭😭
you can say that since x and y are in [lambda, infty), x, y >= lambda
so 1/x and 1/y <= 1/lambda
Noted
Yes next time I will refine my phrasing
I am definitely going to fail real analysis if I were to choose it next year
I feel like it’s just so difficult
And challenging
I doubt it
you're much more capable than you think
lmao even me wouldn't come up with that what higherino explained
Hopefully I will jump into another one
it takes some getting used to, but you will get used to it
higherino?! 
that's such a silly nickname :p
Thanks for that kind words 🥰🥰🥰
good luck with your real analysis studies c:
that's not the last time i will hear from you
you just happen to be an economist and math prodigy
i get it
😂
Which is true and one of the biggest disadvantage of mine 😭😭
The nuanced formalism is too hard for those not studying it
hell, I didn't understand the formalism until after my RA course 
you seem to have it mastered already
and yes, you're doing much better than I was at the time
it's just a few details you need to polish up
That’s so much flattering thanks I will definitely try harder and next year around this time I’ll be confident enough to take real analysis 🥰
There must be a reason for 50% dropout rate though
you're just built different trust me
Better prepare in advance
you are def. not ordinary
every RA course in existence has a 50% drop out rate
that's mostly because it's
a) often students' first introduction to proofs
b) often used as a weedout course by unis
Btw I have another work
what other work? 
Can you check if this indeed proves Dini theorem
Can you teach me how to make money, as the economist that you are 😄
Buy index fund and never withdraw
hm, I could probably make an attempt, but I'm also not very confident in my ability to check analysis proofs in general 
this subject is my worst haha
I definitely must try harder than…
I think you are better at analysis than I am 
real analysis
I must say baby rudin is too hard since I am studying it without lecturing with it maybe there’s easier book?
uhh, lots of different things tend to be called "real analysis", unfortunately
the most standard kind of course I see covers things like
continuity, differentiation, integration, sequences/series, convergence of sequences of functions, some basic topology, etc
Basically a part of math55
no idea what math55 is
some courses are called "real analysis", but are more like measure theory
that would be one course in Harvard's hardest math sequence for freshmen
Just a lot of school uses that math for a combination of math subjects
I don't know too much about it though
fwiw, my uni has like
Real complex analysis and abstract algebra and LA
4 courses that are called real analysis or analysis or whatever, in one form or another
Not only Harvard I think
but they cover pretty different material 
Is there an easier book than rudin s principe of mathematical analysis
This book is so hard for self study
be harder
literally anybody
baby Rudin is really hard to self-study from
the man writes like the reader already knows analysis
Because I feel like it wasn’t that hard at beginning but gradually it becomes excruciating
Like I was using calculus from Micheal spivat for calculus 2 so maybe it helped me a bit for self studying?
I will definitely buy a easier book
ah, if you've read Spivak, then you already know most of basic analysis 
in my university we have infiniaalrekenen 1 and 2
which is everything calculus
and analyse
which is i think a bunch of real analysis stuff

algebraist? 
I know literally zero algebra still
I should really get to studying it but... idk I just can't be bothered to 
whenever I see adonis and you talk algebra, idk what's going on at all
Algebra is a rough love
it's kind of a shame that manifolds don't seem to be standard in math curricula 
it takes time for somebody to help me usually
I also know 0 algebra
which is okay, but it's also kinda 
And yet you use it all the time 
I think I pretty much wait for a select group of 6 or so people to eventually see my help channels 
But I don’t know things like sets containing binary operations and that kind of algebra
my motivation for manifolds is GR 
Ricci flow?
nahh, geometry/topology is easier than analysis
dw life gets pretty abelian with time
everything is easier than analysis 
don't emote me cat bit 
what book do you use to study manifolds
What if it’s not commutative anymore?
Lee's Introduction to Smooth Manifolds
though it's overkill if you just want enough to do GR
I'm probably going to read Wald's book eventually
for GR, that is
My admiration for y'all is very great
I am the least capable person suitable for university
My admiration for you all is very great
You guys broden my horizon and helped me so much
nah, I scrolled through Lee yesterday and nearly got a heart attack looking at how much material there is
I don't think I'm gonna be able to get through this book in less than 2 years
hyzae the doctor returns c:
The say sky's the limit
Break it 🫵🏻
i'm currently very stuck in a short book and it's doing my head in
which book?
ah, I don't know very much about GA 
Linear algebra I will recommend the all time classic linear algebra done right
That’s best book
i can do it if i take something from the bit after the exercise i am stuck at
if that makes sense
Even Econ students who take la will use that book
ic

Isn’t that the best book?
I'm just playing around haha
Even though I am done with my LA courses, is it really worth that book?
I feel most U.S. universities use it
the man acts like determinants killed his family
Many students of engineering or economics and other math demanding fields will use it
All time classic
No doubt
LA done right
what 😂
I'm a FIS shill
so the thing is like, Axler wrote his book with the intention of excluding dets from the material until the very end
but for literally no good reason
hold on the best algebra book is abstract algebra
You can use invariant to solve most of concepts in LA though
by dummit and foote
he says that it's how linear algenra "should be done", hence the name
but like

did the dets kidnap your family or what
Leveraging Cayley Hamilton theorem
I just don't understand why
You can even craft formula for characteristics polynomial for n x n matrix easily
there are two principal things I've heard about D&F
a) it's a really good book to read before bed, because it'll make you fall asleep within minutes
b) the only way to make it less dry is to dunk it in water

Linear algebra is a small part of algebra and the only thing I studied as Econ students at mathematics department
true (waiting for Quadratic Algebra)
I cannot verify these claims, because I've not read it, but many on this server and elsewhere keep iterating this
or variants of these
Yes and cal 1 cal 2 cal 3
Anyway I think it's time for an integral 😄
maybe I'll find a reason to open it up
I did LA simultaneously
we did most of FIS
other algebra books do? 
idk if other algebra books do
ic
This is also a nice book I think
Aluffi is recommended a lot
again though, I can't speak to it's quality 
algebra just seems kinda boring to me, so I can't bring myself to go and study it until I'm forced to 
@red nimbus have you been enjoying algebra?
You should read my Econ books
econ is analysis so nty 
They are what the definition of boring is
yes
none, it's a script that the prof created
thankfully I don’t have to study harder math
Analysis is considered the last part for Econ student 🥰
If this was hard for you, just wait 
not probability?
don't econ students need prob/stats?
and mathematically, they are harder than basic real analysis
There’s a tradition that Econ students take real analysis to show their capability
An U.S. thing I guess
you are very capable 🥰
They are harder?
if you do them mathematically rigourously, I'd say so
You mean Lebesgue? I doubt I don’t think mathematical finance
usually probability requires measure theory
yes, Lebesgue would be a part of measure theory
It’s a path though, but usually it’s more of economics theories…
What's the part you really like about math
If I only focus on economics side then probability (classic) statistics, and real analysis will be super sufficient for my math
In comparison with economics I like all parts of math
Economics is pretty empty worded thing I guess math is fun… but economics does give me more monetarily rich future
when you become rich, don't forget about us :c
To some extent I feel like it’s really just to take advantage of people with basic math but it doesn’t matter as long as it gives me money
when you rich remember to give me a penny when i live on the street and u pass by
If only it happened sure! I doubt I will be rich tho I have the dream

Determine if the following statement is true: $x_n \rightarrow x$ if and only if for every $\epsilon > 0$ it is $|x_n-x| < \epsilon$ for an infinite amount of terms of $x_n.$
-KlariNoX-
So im facing this problem, and I tried this approach: I defined a sequence x_n, with x_n = 1/n for odd n, and x_n = 1 for even terms. Then for infinite terms of that sequence it is true that |x_n-1|<ε, for any ε. However, I'm pretty sure I can show that this sequence doesn't converge to anything. Would that be a correct approach?
or even easier, x_n = 0 for odd n, x_n = 1 for even n
Hm, right! that will definitely make my arguement easier, thanks!

Only whole numbers as input and only whole numbers as output is there more solutions? $f: \bN\mapsto\bN$ where $f=\sqrt[4]{\frac{x^2+1}{2}}$
SilentALume
x=13, y=239
Lol
I do not know about in general. It is not hard to show x cannot be even if f(x) needs to be an integer.
But I didn't see an obvious stronger condition.
Besides just saying (x^2+1)/2 is a fourth power of an integer.

I have a question, if a group has subgroups, how do I know based on the orders of these subgroups whether they are cyclic?
For example: (Z*_33, multiplication)
I read that cyclic are such subgroups that have a (prime) order
Don’t know much about this, but presumably they mean that a prime ordered group can only be cyclic
So if the order of a subgroup is not a prime number it can be cyclic, but if it is a prime number then it must be cyclic?
Ok thanks!

howe
This is just cuz of the fractions
\begin{align*}
b \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{ \frac{1}{1+a/x} \cdot \frac{-a}{x^2}}{-1/x^2} &= b \lim_{x \to \infty} (-x^2) \frac{-1}{x^2} \frac{-a}{1+a/x} \
&= ab \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{1+a/x}
\end{align*}
kipf
the -1/x^2 on the denominator becomes a (-x^2) on the top
which cancels with the 1/x^2 already on the top
bring the a out the limit
you get the right thing
how abt this one
probably the same story

How do I find whether the series converges or diverges?
because its a recursive formula, you need to know the base case
a2 = (3n-1) / (2n+5) * a1
Ah. Although I will not use it?
a1 = (3n-1) / (2n+5) * a0, but there is no a0
Hm
so we need to define what is a1 (the base case)
yes
Ohhh alright got ya
Ok so I will divide by an correct?
How do I know that an won't be p
0*
yea you can use the ratio test
How do I know that an won't be 0 for some value of n
Wdym 'increasing' or 'decreasing'?
you are given a1 is positive
not
?
Wdym increasing or decreasing?
anyways you know a1 is positive and an+1 is always positive
The sequence
If the terms are increasing or decreasing
so an wont be 0
for any real n value
look at the formula of an+1
3n-1 when n is 1 is positive and bottom is positive
when n goes higher and higher it is still going to be positive
3n - 1 > 2n + 5 for 'n' > 6.
So from n = 7, the terms will start increasing since the ratio will be greater than 1. I think so.
and the previous value is still positive
because you are given that a1 is 1/3 which is positive
Ohhh, I just have to plug in values for n make some observations say that an is increasing so it won't be 0
?
yeah you can also mathematically prove it probably
denominator always positive for n>1 and also the numerator always positive for n>1
since a1 is positive, a positive number times a positive number will always give a positive number for n > 1
Alright. Thanks for your help!!

i am doing an exercise where i have to factorize and the equation is y(x^2-y)-(x-y)^2 the common parenthesis would be (x-y) if the x in b(x^2-y) wasnt squared can i remove one x outside the parenthesis making it yx(x-y)-(x-y)^2
if not how could i factorize it
no, you indeed cannot do that
i figured
im also not sure there is all that much you can do beyond expanding and collecting like terms
yeah thats what i have done so far but i think that,that may be the wrong way-not intended solutions since the exercise is about factorisation
do you happen to have the solutions
no we are only given the question
thats actually not the question i just simplified it to see if what i wanted to do was possible
oh, what was the original
,rccw
(x-1)[ (3x-6)(x+1) - (5y-10)(x-1) ]
think thats honestly it, not much to do with the interior of []
oh by doing difference of 2 squares on (x^2-1)?
yeah
hadnt thought of that
yeah there is probably not much in the parenthesis
unless you make it way more complicated

can you use difference of 2 squares on x^3-1
you could use difference of cubes but i am curious if you could use difference of 2 squares as you could on x^4-1 by making it (x^2)^2-1=
(x^2-1)(x^2+1)
well you could make it into $(x^{\frac{3}{2}})^2-1$

What have you tried
What is the center of the new circle that you will draw
the questions language is not clear
What is the diameter?
The given equation will form a chord to the given circle
can u solve by the normal form
now the chord is taken as the diameter and a new circle is formed
I’ll give you a hint: the foot of perpendicular from 0,0 on the line is the center of the new circle
idk
ok
The white circle is x^2+y^2 =a^2
The line perpendicular? I’m not sure
they got the coordinates of centre by it
Its (pcosalpha,psinalpha) but how?

$\int_{-40}^{\infty}\frac{49cosc}{-20c}dc$
Nyxzore
What am I doing wrong?
Hi Nyx, it appears to be the case that you used the product rule for derivatives (which does not apply to integrals)
So the mistake happens early on when you computed the antiderivative.
I did integration by parts?
Oh I read top to bottom of the first page. Let me check again where the mistake is then.
But also at the same time, you should see this:
Answer (1 of 5): What other answers have failed to mention is that this integration problem has a closed form solution in terms of a special function.
The given integral has the following solution :
\displaystyle \boxed {\int \frac{\cos (x)}{x} , dx = \text{Ci}(x) + constant}
\text{Ci}(x) is ...
But I'll still try to find where the mistake is. Because there has to be.
Okay I spotted a potential mistake, (can't be sure since it gets cut off)
Here the -2c^-1 should be -2c^-3 if the rest is what I believe it is.

I don't get it. How would I obtain w?
oh ok I think I got it, but I don't understand how it's simplified to that last step
why isn't it 1/(||v|| * cos(theta))
why 1/(||u||)
Isn't that a v they wrote there (but what terrible handwriting
)
Their point being that v/norm{v} is a unit vector, then you scale it afterwards to fit what you want 
cos(theta) is still there, as is norm{u}, they just highlighted that v/norm{v} is a unit vector
I'm thinking he forgot to write cos(theta) didn't he
can't you cancel out the cos(theta) as well or am I tripping?
Either that bottom is them writing cos(0) (= 1) in that denominator, rather than cos(theta), or they wrote a cos(theta) in error
After all, v^t * v is effectively norm{v}^2
ah you're right it is a 0
this entire thing is v? I thought it was to the right of w
The whole thing is v, yep, from that left to the end 
damn wtf I still need to find the angle
gah alright. it's the u \dot v = norm{u} norm{v} cos(theta) right?
Yep, that way 
how do you remember this stuff man. After I take this class I'll probably forget it
I have no idea, probably helps that I found it somewhat interesting at least, but other than that, don't know if I have any useful advice 
There's a whole bunch of shit that I forgot the moment I didn't have to use it, after all 
idk if you solved it but my answer is 1/6
@glass silo could you verify it if you can?
I seem unsure about this answer
oh I forgot to multiply with v
The coefficient you're gonna multiply v by is 1/6, at least I agree with that one 
alright I got Dimension Error. hbu
Dimension error? 
Sounds about right, if I can even compute anything mentally 
Well, some of it at least
working out the "coefficient" was relatively easy to do, mind you, I can barely remember my own name as it is

I am posting the full question and answer here but I am only asking about part iii c. How do they conclude that (something) makes an angle of - pi/12 ? Also can I not simplify the transformation to just reflection in y = x as the + pi/3 and - pi/3 will cancel?
it would be invariant if after the initial rotation it landed on the line y = x (angle pi/4), making the reflection not do anything and subsequently rotating back to its starting position
so if it lands on pi/4 then its starting position must have been pi/4 - pi/3 = -pi/12
and the rotations don't cancel if there is another transformation between them. if we consider the point on the positive x-axis (angle 0) then in the first place it:
- rotates to pi/3
- reflects across pi/4, giving angle pi/6
- rotates to -pi/6
whereas with just the reflection it would end up at pi/2
Oh, I see so the line of invariant points is a line that makes an angle of -pi/12 with the positive x axis right?
Ah that makes sense.
Alright, thank you.

guys its just a basic question. and books uses a combination with [5,3].[3,2] but it dont makes sense? there is 6 questions left if 2 of them was answered so arent we need to use 6 3 combination?
well its 2 out of the 3

Let $(x_n) \to x$ and let $p(x)$ be a polynomial, show that $p(x_n) \to p(x)$.
\
Let $p(x)= \sum_{i=0}^{m} a_i x^i$
\
Then using the algebra of the limits of sequences, we have $x_n^i \to x^i$ (product of convergent sequences) and $ax_n^i \to ax^n$. We thus find $p(x_n) = \sum_{i=0}^{m} a_i x_n^i \to \sum_{i=0}^{m}a_i x^i$( sum of convergent sequences )
does this suffice
as long as you have that products of convergent sequences converge to the product of the limits, and also that sums of convergent sequences converge to the sum of the limits, then yeah that's fine
but like cite that if that's what you're using
I do , yea
then you're all set
maybe if you wanted to make it more formal then you'd go by induction
ƒ( wai ina teacup)= I don't know
hmm, okay
but that would ultimately mean proving what I've already proven, no?
nvm, wrong question
i mean you have to show that x_i^k converges to x^k where x is the limit of the x_i
but like
that's induction
Nice
if you only have the product
Dang this hard
we do math pretty much of all difficulty levels. see #❓how-to-get-help for math help.

Thanks ill learn this
