can anyone help with this?
its basically physics, and all i really need help with is the last problem
inclined plains and pullies working together
here is a photo if that is easier
Where are you getting stuck?
its just in finding hte ratio of the incline plane
i understand that its a 2:1 ratio for the pully
ok
Use the information ma=3mb
ma(slope)=2(mb)
thats what im confused on
so then is it just 2(mb)/ma?
and then for the other one its just 1.8(mb)/ma?
This is correct
oh, thats lowkey pretty easy
Sorry mb
why?
I confused a with acceleration
what was ur final answer?
working do you want?
So it would just be 1/6
like how to go about the question
Acc to me
ohh, i think i get it
but both of those are viable solutions for it, so i think i get it
basically you just see hte force at which the tension produced by the pully
and hten from there you see the ratio between the two forces and calculate the slope needed
thank you so much!
.close?
Don't provide solutions directly until needed
wasnt the question already sloved ?
Yup
ok, just to recap just to make sure i kinda understand it
you want to basically solve the first force in terms of the other force (which in our case is hte pully system)
then from there, you devide out the weight, so you are just left with a ratio which is the h/l of the inclined plane
and form there you sin(h/l) to get the degree at which the inclined plane is at?
Yup
Arcsin h/l
and generally the angle as the final answer is better than the ratio so try that
whats different between arcsin and sin? im lowkey blanking
i can look up a video, you both are very busy, so i dont want to take up too much of your time
ohh, sin^-1
yup
Yup
Hm
cool, thank you both so much!
ima do a few practice problems rq, and keep the chat open, just in case i need it, but will close it once im done. thanks!
for this, do i just make two mini circles within it, and set them = to eachother
i find the hight by making a mini triangle, and hten i find the length of sign b by doing 100root3?
the incline is sin(60)/100
yup
so the side B is correct
and then i set it =, so would it be 100/sin(60)(100)(A(9.8))=(100root3)(100/sin(60))(B(9.8))?
wait, sin(60)/100, not the other way around
oh, wait, im overcomplicating this
hold on
yeah
trigno too
so like if i move it 100, then it ends up being (100root3-100)(sin(30))
lets take a basic principle first, movement along the string, aka tension, should be same for both
so if A moves x distance up alomg the incline, B should move x distnace down the incline
up the incline right!
not vertiically, else that would complicate things
so then the other side length becomes 100root3 - 100
b right?
side length?
yea
my thought, is wouldnt the new distance be 100root3-100, so we can then just do sin(100root3-100)/sin(100root3)?
and that is the vertical shift
and then we can devide that by 100 so every unit it moves, it shifts that amount
no no u seem to over complicating it again
oh
okay first things first mark all the angles in the incline
60 and 30 degrees, along with 100 and 100root3
nope
let me see
yeah go ahead
nope it asks vertical in the qustuon
yup!!
so the ratoi is 100:50root3?
no its asking us vertical shift of A and B's ratio
ohhh, silly me
so now we do the same thing for the other side, but its 100root3(cos(30))
is that the vertical shift of B or the hypotenuse?
i was doing the horizantal again...
but if ichagned it to sin, that would be the virtical of b
yeah so vertical of B should be 100 (sin30) right?
uh no no why the root three
as i said both the blocks will move the same distance
yea, ur right
yeah!!
its fine happpens to the best of us
.
so, now for the mass of b compared to a, how would we do that
would that just be the slope ratio?
oh, so we can just find b
let me see
isnt it just 1500cos(60)=xcos30?
because the 9.8's cancle out
okay so gravity's component along the incline acting on the block is sin(theta) not cos(theta)
kind of yeah
memorise this case
on, wait, so i just did cos, not sin?
sin(theta) down the incline and cos(theta) is for the normal force acting on the block due to incline
yeah
oh, ok, thats another silly mistake by me
that makes sense, but in short you basically need to set each side equal to eachother
figure out the forc as a ratio of the ima/ama multiplied by the weight
and if you have the weights, you can find the ima
yes
and sin is gravity force, while cos is for when you are pushing/pulling a force
or how far somthing tavels horizantally on a incline slope
thank you so much for all of your help!
i need to go to bed now unfortunatly because its so late, but you have actually been so helpful! thank you so much!
cos part is a little off so we will talk about it next time

i'm trying to calculate this series
I know you can do it by considering $f(x) = \sum_{n \ge 0} \frac{(-1)^n x^{3n+1}}{3n+1}$ and trying to find a closed form for $f'(x)$.
Azyrashacorki
why would that solve it plus i think that's above the paygrade of this Worksheet
oki
Make it in a form of integral
In particular, the goal is that you differentiate term by term, compute a closed form for f'(x), deduce a closed form for f(x) by integrating, then compute f(1).
i got the idea thanks i just have a question sorry if i sound dumb we just started series
i got this
Prolly smth to do with cube roots of unity
to use the formula of geometric series doesn't the |(-x^3)|< 1 but in this case isn't |-x^3| = 1
because we are taking f(1)
This is 1/(1+x³)
isn't the condition not satisfied tho ?
There's some argument as to why this extends to x=1, but I don't really know how it goes.
I just know you can get the answer by doing that.
hmm i see thanks
the idea does work for sure tho
tysm!

how is U just not sqrt(5^2 + 12^2)
why should it be that?
because tan alpha = 5/12
yeah but thats the angle
if i say i threw a rock with initial velocity of 5 ms^-1 making tan a = sqroot(3)
you will find that a gives the angle from which the rock was thrown
do you want to know how we find the initial velocity u?
nah i did it
you just say that the vertical component velocity is 5k, and the horizontal is 12k, find k and then do pythag
atleast that worked for me
wut is this
ehh ig?
never tried it that way
the process was to use x = vi cost , and the second equation of motion for y axis
and subsitute in place of t
just throwing this out there
i encourage you try it this way too

Is it possible for a continous function R->R to take all real values exactly three times?
and I managed to show that as x->infty or x->-infty f(x) -> {-infty,infty}
I think it shouldnt be possible
Say what
$x \to \pm\infty \implies f(x) \to {\pm\infty}$
k
sorry, is this wording clearer? [
\text{Does there exist a continuous function } f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \text{ such that for every } y \in \mathbb{R}, |f^{-1}(y)| = 3?
]
\begin{multline*}
\text{Does there exist a continuous function } f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \
\text{such that for every } y \in \mathbb{R}, |f^{-1}(y)| = 3?
\end{multline*}
k
Like x ^ alpha * sin(x)
I think that would hit 0 more than 3 times
how much do you want the function to go up over a period of sin(x)?
oh nvm this is messed up
but yeah I see the vision
,w plot x + sin(x)
😭
no idea how to pick that a
we would want to enforce that the first zero after x = 0 is also a turning point, that should be enough to fix a
yes
okay okay
,w plot arcsin(sin(x))+x/3
here's a funny one
if you want a really fun task try proving that such an a exists for your problem by IVT
for the sine thing
I thought we wanted a zigzag function so I tried to think of one
Then I remembered composing arc trig functions with trig ones is funny
the first answer does the same strategy and finds a numerical value for a (technically K = 1/a)

it also generalizes. replacing 3 with any odd n gives you a function where all preimage sizes are n

thank you for this beautiful function daddy
this problem came up in helpers and lounge and i provided a proof that it was impossible for even n and pure made this function for odd n
we are such a great team

Hi i need help
For this, i got 5/7 but its not in the options, what am i doing wrong?
This is how i got 21
NVM
I MISCOUNTED
7×4=28
D
Wait but it has without replacement
Is it combination/permutations?
without replacement just means the 2nd time u pick a ball, the total number of balls will be 7 instead of 8
i believe u r already right

Hey, I have a math competition tomorrow about modelling. I was wondering if anyone was willing to give me some insight since I'm pretty new to this and it's my first time. I have some questions based on past samples and I just wanted to have a discussion about tomorrow's game plan. Specifically, a lot of the questions probably use common data models and I wanted to see if someone with more experience can guide me!

Trying to perform a SVD of thid
I started with AA^T to fing the singular avlues
I got the singular values to be $1,\sqrt{6}$,0
Then I computed A^TA
wai
The eigenvalues of A^TA are 1,6
I then found vector in the kernel of A-I and A-6I
(1-2),(2,1)
I should probably show steps

I know this question may be a easy google search, however i dont really understand how AI tries to solve this inequality, I can solve basic inequalities like, 2x + 3 > 11.
I dont even know where to start in this question.
You just multiply both sides by x+3, making cases for whether x+3 is positive or negative
i think it may be better to simply make cases for when the numerator is positive or negative, and when the denominator is positive or negative
Or you can directly check in what intervals x-2 and x+3 are positive/negative

was looking at my study guide, dont remember going over this
mmmm
positive
so the arrows wouldnt be pointing down
so that leaves top right and bottom left right
Well I was referring to the x-component, which yes is positive
x being positive means the graph has to be on the right-side of the y-axis
yeye
and the y would also be positive then right?
cus t^3 is positive
@lofty timber Has your question been resolved?
you can use the same logic that Ari gave you here to eliminate based on bounding y=1-t^2 for starters
ye i got the first question done
second one i need help w the arrows and part b
im assuming on the second one it's the third option where the arrows move towards the negative but idk
and idk how to do part b
Mhm. For positive t, y strictly decreases
you can also do it by seeing that x is a strictly increasing function of t
so the x coordinates must increase
Solve for t in one equation and substitute back into the other
this is just algebra
don't overthink it
you can judge this for yourself using the graph in the first part

why the green side is P(B|A)?
P(B/A) basically means P(B) given that P(A) happened... so that from this picture im understanding... yellow + green is basically P(A) and the square as a whole is the total probability of every outcome
okay so now... we know A happened definately so we limit our set to just the vertical strip and find p(B) that overlaps with rectangle giving us the green area
and since we got A happened we multiply by by p(A) too ;p
@rose saffron Has your question been resolved?
i dont understand
the height is 1
the area of the whole square is say 1 (entire sample space) yellow+ green + blue + grey = 1 alright?
and the strip on left.. basically green+ yellow represent P(A)
yes
now lets just focus on the event A parts
green part is basically the portion of A
where B happens
and the yellow where B doesnt happen
so
ahem
ahem
how can i find the height of the green?
the height of green is basically P(A and B) right...
yea my bad area
not height
yes
whyd u even need the height ;-;
this picture based explaination is
area based
anyway
ull prolly do bayes theorom and total probability using the picture based explanination too i suppose
what r we even bout ;-;
u were the one who brought up height ;-;
i was workin with areas ;-;
its a fraction of areas
specifically P(A and B) and P(A) ;-;
basically probability = area
and conditional probabilties = fraction of areas
from this picture explaination of urs

hello can someone please help me graph these following characteristics!! 😭
thats the exact question idk
I think we have to draw the graph of f(x) from these 4 limits
I THINK SIO TOOO
i dont know where to start
yes
no
😭
oh
AYY
yes
OMG..
OK IMA DRAW IT RN
????
DNE
WAHT DOES THAT MEAN
ohhhh okay
im a part of the same question and idk what to do next
???
the other problems
idk what to do for this one
@spare shoal Has your question been resolved?
I think he was asking what you have tried so far to solve this one
@spare shoal Has your question been resolved?
@spare shoal what is your question
like how do i graph an infinity for c. and d.????
yes
ok so do you have any idea how you might draw one
is the only requirement that it satisfies c?
oh i see it has to be all of them?
yah
ok can i see your graph so far
um like a line
maybe it's best if you show your idea by drawing it out
okay hold on
ts is wat we got rn
hmm so where is the rest of the graph for your lim x -> 5 DNE bit
looks like you haven't decided how to draw it yet?
ok i see
you can pretty much do anything to connect to those two open circles you drew from either side
just make sure it doesn't get in the way of parts c and d
but let's focus on part c first
i mentioned that it should be a horizontal asymptote for part c
do you know the equation of the asymptote for part c?
y=2??
OMGGG
ok so now just draw any curve that asymptotically approaches y = 2 and connects to that lower open circle on the right side
???
hmm no it has to on the right and extending off to infinity on the x axis
let me give an example of what i mean
okay thank you
,w plot -e^(-x) + 2
ignore the left part to the left of the y axis
do you see how it just extends all the way to the right and approaches y = 2
maybe on desmos it would be clearer
better but like start the curve at the bottom open circle and make sure it's beneath that dotted line you drew and draw an arrow at the end once you get past x = 7
i'm mentioning the open circle because i want it to also satisfy the earlier parts
????
are we eating or nah
Ye looks fine
🤔
but remeber to break the line in middle
wait what
you didn't start it at the open circle
you started it at the origin
at the bottom open circle you drew
that's where you start drawing
???
Doesnt matter does it?
no
brother
no of course it's not necessary but it's convenient
now leave
i don't need your help dawg
IM DEAD
no you started it at the origin again
bru
pick up your pen at the bottom open circle you drew
OK ILL DO IT RN
🤔
IDK ANYMORE
a few things
that is the top open circle
also
you drew to the left
draw it asymptotically approaching y = 2 from below
start at the bottom one
and draw to the right
OKAY
AYYYY
HELPPPP
😭
ok so next?
part d
so we need lim x -> - 1 f = -inf
this time we have a vertical asymptote
can you tell me the equation of the vertical asymptote
x=-1????
from both sides of x = -1 it goes down to -inf
yess
😭
and then make sure on the right side of x = -1 your curve connects back to the top open circle you drew here
you can do this
graph -1/(x + 1)^2 on desmos if you need to
to get a better picture
UHHH OKKOK
yea just draw it like the function i gave you
huh
but once you get to the other part of the graph at x = 5 make sure what you just drew connects to the top open circle
huh
😭
why did we take rhis
IM NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN
that's where your asymptote is
im not sure what any of this measn tbj
you're just copying what you see in the function i gave you
a rough sketch
let me see
you'll get there eventually
ya eventually
do you think we are gunna pass this class
for sure
be honest
wow thanks
are y'all in uni
🤔
dual enrollemtn
oh but it just started recently for spring semester
recently as in like 2 months ago??
yes the left side looks great
BROOOOOOo
AYYYYY
put an arrow at the left end of it
ok now for the right side do the same thing basically but as you go right from x = -1, draw the curve so that it connects to the top open circle at x = 5
studious
literallyyyy
wait what
oh
read what i said a few times if necessary
HELP
great
do u think we will get an a on the test
without a doubt
mhmmmm
watch sal khan
fr
BRO
bye
OK HOD ON
connect it to the one above it
and you're good
oh wait
also
you drew your vertical asymptote a bit off
like instead of the bottom circle its the top??
what
see here you drew the red bit to the right of x = 0
wow
great
OMG
OMG
OGM
just part e now
PERIOD
U ATE
i forgot about e
bye
i think they mean the behavior of f at x = -1
it's not so bad
you can do this
are there any words above the screenshot you gave btw
like do they say anything about f
or does it just say complete the following parts
thats all
YA
no
nono that would be the limit thing that they said don't worry about
i mean
f(-1)
did they say anything about the value of the function at x = -1
no
is it dne
well not necessarily
it might not be defined there
you could also define it there
it's just that the conditions they gave you didn't specify anything about f(-1)
so just say that????
yes
bro im actually done with math
hold on
UGH
say no, nothing more can be said of the behavior/value of f at x = -1
you can very much say that lim x-->-1 (fx) dne
are you sure about that sir
yes
waffling
erm
😭
HELP
brother don't type if you don't know what you're talking about
its tending to infinity i think so we can say that limit doesnt exist at -1
thats what ims aying
IM DEAD
okay then go ahead sorry to interuppt you
BROTHER IT SAYS LIM X -> -1 F(X) = -inf
😭
oh my
-inf is not a defined limit
oh my
fym not defined
they don't use this convention
im cruing
shitting
stop trying to salvage this
THIS IS 80% OF MY GRADE
this is your answer
at best you can say it's not continuous
🤷♂️
if you wanted to say something
maybe put that
nothing can be said of the value of f(-1) but f is not continuous at x = -1
so academic
thank you
deadss
you're welcome
thank u

Pls can someone tell me why they wont add up to 1?
What do you think it would mean if the probabilities added up to 1?
did they cover all cases?
Idk i dont even understand all this task really
alright. do you understand what it means in "the real world" if something has a 0.4 probability?
Im not sure
If something has a 0.4 probability, that means it has 40% chance of it happening
Oh yea
similarly, if something has a 0.3 probability, that means it has 30% chance of it happening
Its 100%
yes exactly
In this exercise we have a bag with 3 black balls and 2 red balls and they are looking to describe after how many draws they pick the first red ball
If W = 1 that means the first ball is a red ball
if W=2 that means the second ball picked is the first red ball
etc.
The fourth ball is guaranted red?
i think you're getting close
Why is the probability for the 2nd ball is red smaller than first one?
So the probabilities shown in the table are for W=1, W=2, W=3
Wouldnt it be 50%
you also have to account for the fact you dont get a red ball first
If the first ball was a black ball, then there is 2 red 2 black left so it would be 50%
if you get a red ball first, you dont need a second pull
but, there is only a 60% chance to get a black ball the first time
so it's 60% * 50% because in the other 40% we already found a red ball, so the second ball isn't the "first" red ball
although for this exercise, you don't need to know where the probabilities in the table come from
Okay
If we add up the numbers in the table, we get the probability that we either draw our first red ball on the first try, second try or third try
does that make sense?
Ye
now we know that if those numbers added up to 1, then that would mean this
Looking at the experiment, why would this not be the case?
Uh, because after drawing 3 times there is an 100% chance of getting red, because there are no more black balls?
hmm
we are not looking for the chances after x times
basically what the W shows is
imagine i had a bag with 3 black balls and 2 red balls
and I was asking you to keep picking from the bag until you pulled out a red one
what are the options on how many pulls this would take you? (remember that once you pick out a ball, you don't put it back in, so it stays out for the rest of that attempt)
At the fourth try
yes, so it could be on the first, second, third, or fourth try, right?
so we know that there is at least some % chance for all these options, even if we don't know the exact amount
Ye
which of these options are all covered in the table with W's?
1,2 and 3?
yes!
I think it's important to remember that when you add probabilities, you get the result of what happens if one or the other option is true
So if we add the probabilities of the first, second and third try being the result here, we get the chance that one of those is the right answer
now if they all added to 1, that means the chance of 1,2,3 combined is 100%
like you said before
Oh i know get it i thi n
That would mean that u get the red ball in the first 3 draws guaranted, which would makrd no sense
yes exactly!
well done

What id the derivate?
Is*
it helps to write it as 2 x^(-1)
If it would be 4x?
no. what was your thinking behind that?
$2 * x^{-1}$

is there a way to find out the fixvektor of a matrix without doing a linear equation system?
well there's numerical methods, but good luck using them with pen and paper
otherwise not really
hmm
not even with a calculator?
oh yeah
okay i get it
btw whats the difference between a markov chain and a normal matrix thing
the context
a markov chain uses a matrix as part of it
but thats not what a markov chain is
hmm yeah
its basically
like its independant of the previous stater ight
basically, yes

yo here for the b) im supposed to find the fixvector but what did i do wrong cuz i dont think x y or z should be negative
you;re trying to find x,y,z to make this equation true right?
so once you find them it's very easy to check
no its wrong
wtf did i do wrong
dunno, its hard for me to trace your work but go back through and find the error(s)
okay
right away this doesn't make sense to me, shoudlnt this be = z?
my teacher wrote it like that
this is another example
he does it like this
ummm yes that comes from multiplying the matrix times the vector
but see
he did = 0 too
