can u explain what that is?
my math teacher never taught that
ive looked at videos for it but it was confusing
and its just been mentioned to me before whenever i ask for help on my homework in here
You can take the derivative of the numerator and the denominator and evalute the limit from there
how would i take the derivative of that top one
and wouldn't the derivative of h just be 0 since its a constant?
are you familiar with the limit definition of the derivative?
look at the original problem again
its literally that form but where do i go from there
theres no way im gonna do the pyramid on (x+h)^6
pascals triangle or whatever
do you know derivative rules
nope

Letter a, knowing that in all of R the accumulated probability is equal to 1, what is the value of k
can someone check my answer?
I'm studying for my finals, but this exercise doesn't have the answer...

John is on a number line and starts on the number 0, and on his first
move, he jumps forward by 3 units, landing on the number 3. Then, he proceeds to jump
backwards by 3/2 units, landing on the number 3/2. Soon, he jumps forward by 3/4
units, then backwards by 3/8 units, and he keeps on going such that for every move, he travels in
the opposite direction of the previous move and with half the distance. What number
will he get closer and closer to every time he moves, no matter which move he is making?
(In other words, what number will he end up approaching as he keeps going?)
im not rly sure how to do this-
consider writing out the first few positions that john lands on
but if i did write all of them wouldnt that take like a rly long time?
first few
ohh ok
1 sec, actually its better to consider the units he jumps forward and backwards separetely
and also use fractions
oo ok
Ur so weird
3, 3/2 , 2 1/4, 1 7/8, 2 1/16
Weird
wat??
...ok
actually its better to consider the units he jumps forward and backwards separetely
so like write the expression?
you want two separate sequences

Just wanted to ask if definite integration is the same as indefinite integration but at the end we substitute and subtract the values we got
def integral u leave it as some function f(x) + c
indefinite integral we put f(upper limit) - f( lower limits )
i think its th other way round
ya

38/10 of a hidden number is 20 less that 43/10 of the same number
^
oh thx
wait wht does x equal
the hidden number
by solving it
like moving the x to one side
and the number value
which is a called a constant to the other
in this case it would be 3.8x = 4.3x - 20
can it be any number?
so u move it to the left side which is 3.8x - 4.3x = -20
-0.5x = -20
-1x = -40
x = 40
alr
dw once u wrap ur head around it its light work
do u get how i got the decimals??
na but its not even guessing!
its a nice strat look at the equation again
idk how u got
the decimals??
i didnt understand the - at the start
like -0.5x??
oh wait
ye its just solving the x
no im lost again
the part when solving x
all i now is 5/10 equals 5
i dont understand this equation
alr alr alr so the question
5/10=20
i cant lie i didnt even notice
dwdw its easy
lol
so 35 is 7x20
are u confused on that
not quite not quite
oh
oh
yk the fractions in the question?
like uhh lemme get em
38/10 of a hidden number is 20 less that 43/10 of the same number
divided by 10
yeayea
like if it was 430/100
still 4.3
hmm so 4.3 is 20 bigger than 3.8
which is at the end 2 times because it is 100
basically
Uve got it now
from that we just set the hidden number as x
because we dont know it
ohh thats wht u meant moving decimal
so we get 3.8x = 4.3x - 20
im slovak get confused sometimes with english words srry
i still dont know wht x is XD
since theres 1 zero u have to move it one to the left because ur dividing
x is the number that u dont know
it can be anything ez!
like 1 million 200
50
the reason u put it as x
oh
you would do 38 x 20 and then divided by 10
HMM
think of it this way
of = times
and 8/10 is 18
so it would be 38 times 20 divded by 10
so the number is78
HM i think ur doing it wrong
but wait
hol uppp
5/10 is
10
o-o
yes
whered u get 10 from though
w8 w8 w8 w8 chillll lol
half 20 is 10
its just dividng by 10 so its easier to put in an equation
or this
3.8x = 4.3x - 20
same XD
yoyoyo look
lets take the rpoblem right
43/10 and 38/10
it turns into 4.3 and 3.8
because you move the zero one to the left
43 is 43.0
oh
and when u divide by 10 its one to the left
i thought 4.3
oh lol
thats only for when its 10 tho dont do it with everything!
u get the idea though cuz like u said
when its 100
yes
then its 2 to the left
yup exactly!
for each 0 one space
i know this from school but idk how to get x XD
and u see u just put the number you dont know as x
yk the hidden number??
Its ur x
x is just a number that you dont know
does that make sense?
but in the question is says i havve o find hidden number
:c
i have to guess for that right?
oh is there a formula?
is x
kindaa
its not really a formulate
just think of it like this
i dont know the hidden number
so i put it as x
cz my teacher wants a number like 40 or 20 or something like that
variant decimal or whole number
in this case you have to put it as whatever
you get
let it be decimal
whole number
cuz it has to be exact
i will put x like u told me
cz if my teacher expects me to guess she is crazy XD
so i think putting x is correct
x=40 is the ans
sorry for the interruption
pls continue
yeayea! it works
if ur teacher wants to guess then its even better for you to put x ur going to be ahead of ur class :)
npnp 40 is indeed the answer!
in that case solve it spectral
oh thx
i thought 40
thx
lol i thought 40 bcz double of 20
and 10 was half of 20
and 20 half of 40

b?
i just assumed f to be quadratic polynomial and then solved for the coefficients using the three conditions given
idk how to do that. how did u solve for the coeffecients if there was no function given in the first place?
like no 3x^2 all that
i assumed it to be ax^2+bx+c
oh, ok, so if i plug in everything on this problem, would that make this b as well?
shouldnt it be e?
what i did was i graphed both f(1.1) and f(1) and i got f(1)=0 and f(1.1)= .09531
but you dont have to give the value of f
you have to approximate it using tangent at that point
so i have to find the tangent of ln(x) and then it would be tangent(1.1) and thats my answer?
yes ig so

how do you know if it will be a circle instead of a perpendicular bisector?
because if they have the same modulus it's usually a perpendicular bisector between the two points

i am pretty sure they are just asking for the perimeter and the area of the triangle
Area of Triangle = 1/2 * base * height -> 1/2 * 6 * 3^1/2
to find the perimeter first we need to find out the length of the equal sides
L = length of side
P = Perimeter
to find that we just apply the pyth . thm
L = | (9 + 25)^1/2 |
therefore
P = L*2 + 6 * 3^1/2
put all this in your calculator and it will be easy

I have been trying to understand what this means for the last hour can someone please help?
I think I get it, but I donโt know if itโs right or exactly how to solve it, I could try to explain to show my work but Iโm just trying to understand the concept
Can you be more specific on what you don't understand
k is a function from the set of real numbers R to the set of integers Z
so if you put in a real number in it, you will get an integer as output
Note it should say:
k : R โ Z
k(x) = ceil(x/2)
They didn't put a space or anything between those two different statements, which is weird
^
the braces that $$\frac{x}{2}$$ is in represent the ceiling function

@nimble owl Has your question been resolved?
See Iโm taking online classes and so I donโt really get to ask many questions Iโve been somewhat teaching myself but could you explain wtf this means? Please ๐ฅบ
What I understand is
R is real #s
Z means integers
I think you should learn that first ๐
Learn the basics of a function, I myself just learnt what functions are, what their domains and ranges are
so I suggest you get to work and read the text book ๐ฌ
Like Ik what range and domain is
Like Iโve read and watched videos but basically I need like a baby explanation if thatโs even possible
If not Iโll just look more thatโs why I got on here
To be honest, I think you should just read the textbook or watch more videos for now, and if you get confused anywhere you can ask here
like actually study it and understand what it means
Iโm trying ): but thanks
to help you somewhat, the braces are not just normal braces
it's the ceiling function or the greatest integer function

So to my understanding a function takes an input, and creates an output essentially like f(x)=x+1
So my understanding is you put in a real # toโฆnvm Iโm lost again like I guess I can research it myself if you want but I guess itโs the arrow thatโs throwing me off
Cause so far this is what I know what the arrow does
Iโm gonna watch a video but if you or someone could help explain what the arrow means in baby terms
what arrow?
This one
$k:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{Z}$?
Mosh
it means k, the function, maps from R to Z
So like it can be any # that is a real # to an integer?
Mosh
What it means is, if you put any real number from R in k(x), you will get an Integer as output
Ohhhhh
so R is the domain and Z is the range
Thank you ๐ญ
more commonly you see the following notation:
$f:X\to Y \ x\mapsto f(x)$
Mosh
f is a rule that goes from X to Y, with x in X going to f(x) in Y
that's the "abstract" definition of a function
Like f is a function?
yes
Got it

Ok so let's say I have this wind turbine that can only charge my device if the wind speed is 5m/s and above.
The wind speed over 24h follows this expression:
v(t)=Acos(kt)+B
t=hours passed since 00:00
v(t)=wind speed for a given value t
The problem here is finding k, A and B. And we are given a few pieces of information to do this:
-Wind speed starts at it's highest point 14m/s and after a while goes to it's smallest point 2m/s.
-The device charges for 14 hours that day
A and B are trivial (6 and 8) but I'm having trouble finding a value for k
(It then asks to find the wind speed at the end of the day (t=24) so I need to figure out the full equation)

@kindred maple What's the highest point of normal cosine?
You mean 1?
Yes. What's the lowest point?
-1
How far apart are those?
2
So, cosine has a height of 2, so to speak.
What's the height of the modified cosine in your problem?
A* 2= 12
Right.
So, now you know A.
So, if we just have 6 cos(...), what's the highest point of that?
6
How much do you have to add to that to get your problem's highest point?
Yeah so v(t) > 5 for those 14 hours
If you set v(14)=5 and solve for k you can get the correct answer but you can also get an incorrect answer (there are an infinite number of answers but only the โfirstโ one is correct) Idk of a way to show that one specifically is the correct one
Can someone explain what NAND does
@nimble owl Sorry, this channel is taken by someone else. To ask a question of your own, see the new rules in #โhow-to-get-help.
@kindred maple Yeah, it appears that ฯ/21 and ฯ/15 work, and I think you're correct about infinite solutions. I don't see anything that disqualifies either in the problem description.
,w Plot[{5,6Cos[Pi/21 t]+8,6Cos[Pi/15 t]+8},{t,0,24}]
The issue is this
(Btw this was just me trying to remember the description so itโs not 100% accurate)
They basically want the full function that describes wind speed over the 24 hours
Also those 2 graphs do not seem to be equal at x=14
Only the red one makes sense
The grey one goes down at 10 and comes up at 20.
So, up for 10 hours, then up for the last 4 hours.
Oh, I see what you mean, I donโt think thatโs allowed. Im pretty sure it said something like it โcharged until the 14th hourโ
Oh, in that case, if you change k, it's going to stretch or compress it horizontally and it won't hit y = 5 for the first time at x = 14.
So the only solution is the red one.
As far as getting it, 5 as the output of the modified cosine is the same as -1/2 for the original cosine.
But how do I show that mathematically? Cause if I solve for k I take an inverse of cos so infinite solutions
Yeah -1/2 was what I had too
The earliest positive angle that gives a cosine of -1/2 is what?
But why is it that the solution would be the earliest positive angle?
Because we start at zero and we go up. Then the first time it hits 5 is at x = 14.
So, the angle has to be positive to be above 0.
Then it's the first time a working angle occurs or else it'd hit 5 before that.
Sorry I read that 5 times but I donโt understand it lol
Donโt we start by going down?
OK, so it'll start at angle 0 at x = 0.
Then as you increase x, the angle increases.
With you
Then we want to get to cos(ฮธ) = -1/2 one time.
We don't want to get to it one time and then continue to the next time.
Does it make sense why?
Right. It would be like the grey line above.
It goes down and then we get it when it's coming up and crosses 5 going up.
But we want the first time it crosses 5 when it's going down.
That's like the red line.
I see what you mean now
I mean the issue here is setting v(14)=5 because it only solves for the value at that point, but I guess thereโs no better way of doing it then?
Right.
So, we get that first angle that works.
cos(ฮธ) = -ยฝ in the third quadrant.
That's like 4/3 ฯ, I think.
,calc cos(4/3 pi)
Result:
-0.5
And then we adjust it so that 4/3 ฯ = 14k.
Yeah, let me see what I did wrong.
,calc cos(2/3pi)
Result:
-0.5
I think we need that solution
Oh yeah.
Sorry, I was thinking of sine.
That was the problem.
Yeah, second quadrant is for cosine.
So, 2/3 ฯ = 14k.
Yeah now it becomes pi/21
So for this sort of problem, youโd basically have to reason your way to finding the solution for k that fits?
Yeah, you draw a graph.
Doesn't have to be exact. Just to get an idea of what you're looking for.
Makes sense
Then you see you want it to hit the y = 5 line first time at x = 14.
And you go from there.
Alright, that solves my problem then thx!
You're welcome.

how do i use factorials in a calculator
i want to do 365/365, 364/365..... all the way to 345/365
use an online calc
thats what im doing
Too big. Most calculators only reach 10^100

okay so
i think i got E[X]
but now im confused on V[X]
im assuming i should just use the E[X^2] - E[X]^2
but
Is it complicated
i cant figure out how this works out
since you get like
i mean what the heck is $E[(Y_1 + \dots + Y_n)^2]$ even
jan Niku
Uhh can you directly use the PMF of X
i have no idea
If this one fails try the literal definition of variance
That one if you can use the PMF directly
literal definition?
because we have that $V[X] = E[(X-\mu)^2]$
jan Niku
but i dont think $E[X] = \mu$
I'm writing that
jan Niku
Variance is literally squared differences from mean
isnt it implied that mu is the true mean
and E[X] is just something you calculate from data
like in this, we have a statistic and an unknown parameter
usually
no, expectation is related to distributions, which exist outside of statistics and data
jan Niku
lemme try
yes
im not sure this makes the problem easier
actually i was about to say
you can make the problem easier by noting that the Y_i are all independent
$V[X] = E[X^2] - 2E[XE[X]]+E[E[X]^2]$
jan Niku
is this how you end up with like
that just simplifies to E[X^2] - E^2[X]
so you mean using the other formula
if random variables are independent, the variance of their sum is the sum of their variance
E(XE(X)) = E(X)^2
okay one sec
lemme use this
I'm still not sure how to do this
the E(X^2) term
this was the original issue i was curious about
that won't be fun to calculate
you should use this
oh you mean dont use any formula at all?
i mean, do you know the variance of a Bernoulli(p) rv?
this is one you can find easily
pq
find?
sure p(1-p)
using the formula?
now using this, you have n Bernoulli(p) rvs, so their total variance is just np(1-p)
which formula?
E(x^2)-E(X)^2
sure
bernoulli is pretty straightforward to work with methinks
$Y = \begin{cases} 1 & \text{w.p. } p \ 0 & \text{w.p. } 1-p \end{cases} \ E[Y] = (1) p + (0) (1-p) = p \ E[Y^2] = (1^2) p + (0^2) (1-p) = p$
so E[X^2] - E[X]^2 = p - p^2 yeah?
pq
sure
oh
but the binomial is a sum of n bernoullis
were changing from the notation of the problem
true, one sec
Steakanator
i got lost a little
im trying to track back
we were at E(X^2) = E( (y_1 + ... + y_n) ^2 )
the original question says the Y_i ~ Bernoulli(p)
yea
i'm telling you to stop looking at E[X^2]
all the way back here
yes
since the Ys are all independent

yes
and this happens because
y ~ bern(p)
this implies that each y is iid
then the variance thing you said
this all follows

yes
lol well
shes like
"youve done this problem before in the last class"
this is not what the last class covered

I have this problem assigned where I need to make equations and a matrix in order to solve it but I am getting very confused by the wording and how I would set up any of the equations because I donโt really know what itโs asking
@hollow turret Has your question been resolved?
The way I read this, you have 30KG of pure tin, you need to add an alloy to it that is made out of both bronze and tin, in order for the final result would have 75% of its weight in bronze
For example, lets say you add 1KG of bronze alloy B
that means you added 850grams of bronze and 150 grams of tin, leaving to a total of 30.150 kg of tin and 850grams of bronze totalling 31kg
obviously, this 31kg alloy is not 75% bronze, so you need to keep adding alloy B until it reaches there
you can make this an equation

How would I find the arc length here? The answer key says it is 28.375 but I am continually getting 26.086 or 28.558
The original derivative I had was simply 4x, but i realized thats wrong. Should I put in the second derivative?
@near rose Has your question been resolved?
,w integrate(sqrt(1 + y^2/(4y^2 + 64)), (y, -4sqrt(3), 4sqrt(3)))
hm, I wonder if there is a key error
yeah idk ๐คท
i mean it's been awhile since i've integrated for arc length but it's pretty straightforward (especially if i cheat with a computer lol)
maybe i'm missing something
I legit cant find ANYTHING online about volume and hyperbolas, its just precalc stuff i find. I'll keep looking ig
<@&286206848099549185> Sorry for pingin
@near rose like this perhaps
parametricize it
it looks more reasonable to integrate than the integral shown above to me
We arent there yet XD, just started Calc 2,
unit 6 of james Stewart
So like volume with revolution and cross sections
and arc length
shouldn't that be unit 8? arc length?
or unit 13 lol
idk, google is probably giving me different answers for different editions
regardless
I rlly dont know because we use two books ๐
idk if I could maybe take the second derivative and d/dx the integral maybe
nvm thats wrong
here wait
nearly got it
it's this
but I can't manage the partial fraction properly
Well we can use calculator so
you still get the same value 14.5ish
yeah
I mean I'd like the exact number
the number in the key is 28.375 no rounding
yup, that's what I got
nvm
well, an approximation thereof
I mean desmos is just another calculator
I use it cause it does integrals easily on my computer P:
^
plus helps to visualise graphs
my calculator I trust more, but takes much longer to use and is a pain to screenshot
no exact form though D:
yeah integrating wrt x, y, and parameterizeing all give the same value
the wolfram wrt y gives a formula not sure if it's closed form lol idk what E() is
$$4x^2-y^2 = 16$$
$$x = 4$$
Shuri2060
E(x) = f(x), where f(y)=E(y)
ez
(4, 4sqrt(3))
decimal approx is fine for this tho
.... I guess
oh we can get an answer as precise as we want
lemme try this way
y = (4x^2-16)^(1/2)
dy/dx = 4x(4x^2-16)^(-1/2)
(dy/dx)^2 = 16x^2(4x^2-16)^(-1)
did you read my wolfram posts above?
trusting in wolfram alpha too much can lead to stupid mistakes
well you showed your work haha
$$\int\sqrt{1+\frac{4x^2}{x^2-4}},dx$$
scapeprof got into an argument with me the other day about how the (very real) solutions to a quadratic were hyperbolic/imaginary/complex
since that's what wolfram alpha said....
yeah i verified with https://gamma.sympy.org/ and https://www.integral-calculator.com/ as well
but they don't have discord bots
which is just 5+16/(x^2-4)
Shuri2060
is this it?
im multiplying this by 2
go ahead
yup
im dumb, how
oh right yh yh
1+4+16/(x^2-4)
originally it was to do partial fractions
but that actually messes things up more P:
This is so weird
$$\int\sqrt{\frac{-4 + 5x^2}{x^2-4}},dx$$
i think it's just a key error, pretty sure we've conclusively shown that lol
Shuri2060
lmaoo probably
me?
yeah
kinda done
kk
