obtuse heath
#

Yeah

tender rampart
#

okay great, so then by that fact me putting that half angle identity down i have not yet integrated, so i still need to do that which is why they go back to sin, because that's the integration of that half angle identity, do I have that correct?

obtuse heath
#

So you're just confirming that integrating sin^2 x gives back an expression containing sin(2x)?

tender rampart
#

no

#

here

#
  • convert starting trig identity to half angle identity
  • (i still don't exactly know why we do this)
  • half angle identity returns 1/2(1-cos(2x))
  • we then integrate which returns the sine trig function
#
  • plug in limits and finish
obtuse heath
#

Looks good to me

tender rampart
#

yeah, but why do we do this

#

that's my real question

worldly vale
#

you do it so that you actually can integrate sin^2(x) using things you already know how to integrate

tender rampart
#

OH

#

so its really not possible to integrate 1-cos(2x)?

#

at my level of calculus 1?

worldly vale
#

? yes it is

tender rampart
#

then why are we doing this

worldly vale
#

you are trying to integrate sin^2(x)

#

we dont know how to do this

#

so we rewrite it as 1/2(1-cos(2x))

#

we know how to integrate this

#

so now we know how to integrate sin^2(x)

tender rampart
#

and that entire term becomes integrated

#

hence the -1 becoming x, right?

worldly vale
#

yes

tender rampart
#

but the 2x inside parentheses doesn't, right?

worldly vale
#

we simply replaced sin^2(x) with 1/2(1-cos(2x)) in the integral and then did the integration

#

doesnt what?

tender rampart
#

doesn't integrate

worldly vale
#

it does not change no

tender rampart
#

and that's because it's in parentheses right

#

its basically the "trig function of..." right

worldly vale
#

sure yeah

tender rampart
#

awesome

#

thank you very much my friend, that really helps a massive ton

#

have a good one

This is systems of equations

#

Do you know how to solve those?

Here is an example of how you solve c

You could use elimination too

Which might be easier tbh

hasty tide
#

The limit as x approaches 0 from both sides of f(x) is going to be nonexistent for this function, correct?

Because it's not continuous through the point x = 0?

azure trellis
#

the limit both ways exist, but they wont be the same

#

and that makes the function not continuous

hasty tide
#

Okay, so I know that the limit as x approaches 0 from the LEFT is -1, and the limit as x approaches 0 from the RIGHT is 1, but if it's the limit as x approaches 0 from BOTH sides, is the limit nonexistent?

marsh temple
#

the limit doesn't exist, yes, however

Because it's not continuous through the point x = 0?
is not the reason

worn knot
hasty tide
worn knot
#

yes so in this case why doesn't the limit as x->0 exist?

#

does it converge on the same value as x->0 from both sides?

Chris uses IVT and concludes that the equation x3βˆ’5x^2βˆ’6=K has a solution over the interval [5,6]. Given their work is accurate, which of the following can be the value of K?

A. K=-7
B. K=186
C. K=-5
D. K=-8
E. K=36
F. None.

grand birch
#

Im just confused how to even begin solving this

robust mulch
#

What does ivt state?

grand birch
#

IVT and the theorems in general are difficult for me

hearty solstice
#

Intermediate value theorem

robust mulch
#

Yes i know that

grand birch
#

𝑓(x) is continuous on an interval [a,b]
𝑓(π‘Ž) ≀ N ≀ 𝑓(𝑏)
𝑓(𝑐) = N

#

I believe are the rules for IVT

robust mulch
#

so over the interval [5,6], there exists a number c between 5 and 6 such that f(c) satisfies
f(a) < f(c) < f(b)

grand birch
#

Right

grand birch
#

a = 5, b = 6

robust mulch
#

Yes

#

So you need to find f(5) and f(6)

grand birch
#

f(5) = (5)^3-5(5)^2-6 = -6
f(6) = (6)^3-5(6)^2-6 = 30

#

But neither of these fall between the interval

#

Unless theres more work to be done

robust mulch
#

Now look at your options

#

we know that for some c, f(c)=K

#

By ivt,
f(5) < f(c) < f(6)

grand birch
#

Correct

robust mulch
#

Evaluating everything out, we get
-6 < K < 30

grand birch
#

Oh

#

-5

#

I see

#

That makes more sense

#

I didnt substitute the numbers

robust mulch
#

Yeah

grand birch
#

I overcomplicated that part, thank you

#

Can I ask for help with another problem?

robust mulch
#

Sure

grand birch
#

The sqrt in A is all of it

robust mulch
#

so each one is sqrt of whats on the right of the equal sign?

grand birch
#

No no

#

I just mean the sqrt symbol you see in answer choice A is the whole answer

#

Hold on, this may help

small ember
#

Is there a universal way to solve a system of 3 linear equations?

small ember
#

I find myself getting stuck on them more often than i'd like

tiny gorge
#

row reduction?

small ember
#

Well more just solving the equation for all of the variables. I'm not sure what method to use

#

3 seperate equations with 3 seperate variables

#

I've tried using both elimination and substitution to no avail

tiny gorge
#

that's what row reduction does

#

can you show an example where you are getting stuck?

small ember
#

x - y + z = -6
3x - 4y - z = -4
-2x + 3y + 4z = 14

tiny gorge
#

ok, so what are you doing for your first step(s)?

#

with row reduction you would start by eliminating x from the 2nd and 3rd equations
then eliminate y from the 3rd equation

#

the idea being that when you're done, the 3rd equation will only depend on z, the 2nd will depend on y and z, and the 1st will depend on x y and z

#

then it's easy to find the values of xyz

small ember
tiny gorge
#

yea it's best to proceed methodically, this way you know you'll end up with something you can solve

small ember
#

I hadn't even been taught row reduction I'll need to try that

tiny gorge
#

you can check somewhere like khan academy for a tutorial

#

might also be called "gaussian elimination"

#

two names for the same thing

small ember
#

My friend

#

thank you

#

You've helped me greatly

#

Live long and prosper

what does (x,y) even mean in this case

#

does the (x,y) have any relation to the 3x+y

#

if i set (0,0) would that means 3*0+0=0?

marsh temple
#

(x,y) means an ordered pair, yes it has a relation to the 3x+y, yes it's 0

plush merlin
#

this set consists of all couples (x,y) that satisfy the given condition

#

you can rewrite the given condition as $y=-3x$ and so your set consists of all couples $(x,-3x)$ $\forall x\in \mathbb{R}$

soft zealotBOT
#

calculus is fun

plush merlin
#

every point in the xy plane that satisfies this condition is in the set

#

so you can think of (x,y) as the coordinates of a point in the xy plane

#

which satisfies the given relation between x and y

unborn pilot

not really sure what to do i haven’t even gotten past step 1

tired walrus
#

do you know the triangle inequality

unborn pilot
tired walrus
#

yes

#

to which triangle, and in what way, could you apply this inequality here in a useful fashion?

unborn pilot
#

jlm

#

is that not right

jolly sentinel
#

no JLK

#

since sum of any 2 side lengths is greater than the length of the 3rd, KJ + KL > JL

#

and since JL is congruent to LM, KJ + KL > LM

unborn pilot
#

oh thanks

#

got another question tho

#

it says determine all the possible values and i could just sit there testing all the values but is there any faster method?

timber hearth
#

how do i prove that a function is monotonically increading without calculus?

timber hearth
#

ik you find the derivitive and see if its > the x axis, but i havent taken calculus yet so i dont know how to take it

warm wraith
#

well, if you're somehow able to prove that f(x+1) > f(x), that would do it

timber hearth
warm wraith
#

not sure I understand you?

timber hearth
warm wraith
#

well, if you prove that at any point x, the point x+1 is greater than it, that means the function is increasing

#

at least that's my understanding of it

timber hearth
#

oh ig i'll try that

static fractal
#

I don't think that quite works on the first unit interval on the domain (if the domain is unbounded below this isn't a problem)

#

for instance y = x for x>0, y = 10 for x = 0 is not increasing if we include the first point of the domain (and the function could be more generally decreasing in the first unit interval)

timber hearth
#

yeah that's what i was trying to say

#

ur gonna have to prove the interval [0,1) if you were to have x>0 domain

static fractal
#

if it's an infinite domain then it's not a problem

#

but otherwise, yeah, that'd require a separate proof

#

f(x+1) > f(x) still proves it for everything else though, so you can just do it in two parts if that's feasible
the other way is to prove the definition directly; that x > y implies f(x) > f(y)

final saddleBOT
#

@timber hearth Has your question been resolved?

trail mango
#

is there a specific function you had in mind?

#

it would be simple to do it by definition for e.g. linear functions

timber hearth
#

hm

#

i was trying to prove that for all x>0, x/(x+100) is monotonically increasing

trail mango
#

ok i have a no calculus idea

#

let me see if it’s nice

timber hearth
#

k ty

trail mango
#

yea i think this works

trail mango
timber hearth
#

yeah how am I supposed to prove that

trail mango
#

you can divide and multiply and add stuff etc to get an equivalent inequality that’s clearly true

timber hearth
#

oh ok

#

ohh I see it now

trail mango
#

changed the inequalities a bit but you can change them back to > if you want strictly increasing

oh I see it lol ty

go to one of the channels in the available section above where you found this channel

how do I get 14

sure you can plug x=3 into each equations and evaluate

#

I think the goal is to multiply them algebraically

#

then plugging in 3

#

First get the answer by inspection without algebra

then try the algebra

sage nexus

oh

#

idk how to get the 3 and crap

Without algebra, by this i mean, find f(3) then square it, find g(3)*3, take their difference

is this right

final saddleBOT
grim badger
karmic kindle
#

you drew your graph as postive too

#

not negative.

grim badger
#

And no it's not right, because -7/3 can either mean down 7, right 3 or up 7 left 3

karmic kindle
#

Look at this image for reference

grim badger
#

While if it was 7/3 that can either mean up 7 right 3 or down 7 left 3

fossil shuttle
#

it has to go -7 below

grim badger
#

You can't go both down and left if you have a negative slope

grim badger
fossil shuttle
#

so it's not negative?

grim badger
# fossil shuttle is this right

If you connected the dots on what you drew here, would the line look like the left with a positive slope or the right with negative slope?

grim badger
#

But your equation have a negative slope, so it should look like the right one

fossil shuttle
#

as I'm confused

grim badger
fossil shuttle
#

okay

grim badger
#

So go down 7 right 3 or up 7 left 3

fossil shuttle
#

I can't go up?

#

as it's only till 5

grim badger
#

Then you do the other one

fossil shuttle
#

oh

#

ok

fossil shuttle
#

am I correct

grim badger
#

No

#

That's not the y intercept

#

Y intercept is where it crosses the y axis

#

What you did initially

#

You applied the slope wrong

fossil shuttle
karmic kindle
#

yes

#

good

grim badger
fossil shuttle
#

so now I go down 7?

#

ok

grim badger
#

If you can't go up 7 left 3, then do the other one, down 7 right 3

fossil shuttle
grim badger
#

Yes

#

Like that

fossil shuttle
#

but can't I also do the left?

#

as it's possible

grim badger
fossil shuttle
#

oh

grim badger
#

You can't go left 3 and down 7

fossil shuttle
#

ohh ok

#

what do I do next

Can someone explain the significance

final saddleBOT
glad basalt
#

Of setting a quadratic equation = 0

#

Like what does it mean

blissful meadow
#

You find where the parabola characterized by this equation touches the x-axis

glad basalt
#

Does that mean y, the solution is zero? Are you looking for the x intercepts?

glad basalt
#

Any equation set to zero

blissful meadow
#

yeah

#

In particular it means you look for intersections with the line y=0

#

which is the x-axis

#

If you set your equation = 5

#

Then you find intersections with y=5

glad basalt
#

Hm ok

#

What does it mean when we’re looking for solutions to a quadratic?

Like factoring then getting x - 3 = 0

Are all solutions where the parabola touches the x axis?

so like for the park, it's made of a rectangle and a semicircle

figure out the area of each one and then add them up

50 + 60? TPF_muu_Think

why are you adding 50 and 60 is my question?

#

like 50m + 60m?

#

to get 110m?

limber scaffold

that's a unit of length

area should be m^2

Prove or disprove that function g(t,u)=a|u|+b(t^2)(u^2)+ct(u^3) satisfies the Lipschitz condition on R={(t,u)||t|≀a, |u-b|≀c}, where a, b, c are positive constants. Find Lipschitz constant(if exists).

shy tendon
#

I applied the Lipschitz condition and proved that it satisfies it. Just have one doubt, if we have u1+u2 then can I say u1+u2≀2(b+c)

#

for finding the value of K(Lipschitz constant)

desert mantle
#

b and c are fixed while u1 and u2 are variables. you would have to show why u1+u2 cannot be bigger than the fixed value 2(b+c)

how

u is bounded

so for any u1, u2 belonging to u

Wait a minute, we did all that working while we already had xy=0.8 I could've divided by y which we already had

#

Oh my days

Oh I meant xy =0.2

#

I got p(a) now

#

P( a u b) should be here from know

Hi! πŸ‘‹
I need help, I have to solve this statistics problem and for some reason my solution feels off
A fair coin is flipped. If it lands heads H we flip it again, if it lands tails T we stop. What is the average number of times the coin is flipped?

I tried to find the probability of the sequence (H, T)
The possible cases are: (T), (H, T), (H, H, ...)
I don't know how many cases the third sequence should be.

strong mantle
chrome cove
#

Nice, so the probability of (H, T) is 1/3, right?

strong mantle
desert mantle
#

you shouldnt write stuff that depends on order as sets

chrome cove
#

Here's what I did

chrome cove
strong mantle
chrome cove
strong mantle
#

it takes 1/2 to go to H

#

and then another 1/2 to go to T

#

then when those are multiplied, you get 1/4

#

which is not 1/3

chrome cove
#

Ah I see you are right

"The nth hop lasts for a time t__n, which solves the equation.
Make an equation for the time t_n. how many jumps will the ball make in total? Is this answer realistic?"

real juniper
#

the equation at hand:

#

we know the v_0= 1m/s and it only keeps 1/9 of its energy per jump

#

so i got the velocity to be 1/3^n

#

however

#

When i do all of this, i get the limit as n goes to infinty to be 0 jumps?

Working on #2

Honestly have no clue if I’ve done any right, but I’ve done 2 integrations by parts and don’t know how to continue

@magic estuary Has your question been resolved?

jaunty portal
# magic estuary

hello. The last integral you got is correct. That one can be solved directly. Also don't forget that when you have a definite integral and you use integrations by parts, you have to evaluate each "uv" in the limits (0 and inf)

#

Anyway, you can keep your work and evaluate the limits in each term you got

#

you should get a^2/s + 2ab/s^2 + 2b^2/s^3

#

Another way to approach this laplace transform is first expanding the square I think πŸ€” (a+bt)^2 = a^2 + 2abt + b^2 t^2

magic estuary
#

I had 2b^2/s^3 as the third term but the first two I had as well

#

I can never tell when I can end the integration by parts on a laplace so I just do two of them and then start substituting the inf's and 0's

jaunty portal
#

yeah sry my bad

#

2b^2/s^3 is ok

magic estuary
#

oh neat

jaunty portal
magic estuary
#

So like in another example I've brought it down to sin(t)*e^-st

#

Since theres a laplace identity for sin(t) which is 1/s^2+1 I can sub that in and solve the rest of it?

jaunty portal
#

sure, as long as you're allowed to use that identity

#

There's a method based in int. by parts, it's the DI method. It's a way to do it less messy

magic estuary
#

In other cases such as with polynomials, can I just do by parts until I'm left with int(d e^-st) and then solve it using the upper and lower boundaries?

jaunty portal
#

yes

working with lagrangians right now in classical mechanics but i think this is related enought to mathematics to ask the following question:

modest perch
#

I dont understand how we are using the chain rule here

#

Where q(a), as I understand it, is some function of the position and of time

#

oh it's actually possible im completely misunderstanding the chain rule

i figured it out hehehe

You are observing n rectangles from an origin (360O view) in arbitrary positions (distances and orientations) in cartesian coordinate system, as shown below (origin with red star).

Any rectangle can occlude any other rectangle, and a rectangle can occlude more than one rectangles; no rectangle can overlap with the origin or with any portion of other rectangles.

Calculate n random rectangles (with respect to position and orientation), with n being the user-defined input. Calculate the total occlusion angle over all rectangles with the lowest time complexity possible. Example of an occlusion angle between two rectangles is illustrated with the shaded area in the illustration below.

How would I do this?

Basically, how would I find the occlusion angles for this?

What does it mean by "Which summary statistics would you use to summarize the center and spread in this data? Why?"

bleak granite
#

I can do the math lol

#

but idek what the question is asking blobsweat

robust mulch
#

Wheres the tail im assuming

#

Also unimodal/bimodal/etc.

#

I think

bleak granite
#

well that but i dont understand this wording "summary statistics"??

robust mulch
#

Heres what wikipedia says

bleak granite
#

mhmm so I guess to measure spread you'd use mean and for spread, standard dev?

alright thanks @robust mulch! helper_heart

If $x$ is a real number, then either $x$ is an integer or there is an integer $n$ such that $n <x < n+1$

soft zealotBOT
stray stump
#

Assume $x \notin \mathbb{Z}$. I considered 2 cases. The first case is when $x > 0$. Let $S = { n \in \mathbb{N} | n < x}$ and let $\alpha = \text{sup}(S)$. By construction $\alpha < x$.

soft zealotBOT
stray stump
#

Now I want to argue why $x < \alpha + 1$.

soft zealotBOT
stray stump
#

I am stuck here...

#

Since I want to show x < alpha + 1, can I assume that x > alpha + 1. But that is direct contradiction to how S is constructed. And this is done?

plush merlin
#

Why is $\alpha$ necessarily <x can't it just be x?

soft zealotBOT
#

calculus is fun

plush merlin
#

$\alpha$ might not and (is probably not) in S

soft zealotBOT
#

calculus is fun

stray stump
#

It has to be in S, no?

#

This is how I pictured it... S is natural numbers smaller than x

#

sup (S) is just the greatest natural number less than x.

#

which is definitely in S

plush merlin
#

For example take the interval (0;1)

#

Sup((0;1))=1

stray stump
#

In that case, x would be like 1.1 and S = {1}

plush merlin
soft zealotBOT
#

calculus is fun

stray stump
#

But I do see a problem with something like x = 0.3

#

Then S is empty

#

hmm

plush merlin
#

Because no matter which number you choose you can always choose another number closer but greater than 1

stray stump
#

hmm ok well

#

Im not sure what to do lol

plush merlin
soft zealotBOT
#

calculus is fun

plush merlin
#

It can't be >x because it will contradict the fact that it is the least upper bound of S

#

consider the set S={0,1,2..,n} containing all natural numbers up to n

#

And let sup(S)=x

#

Then obviously n<x=<n+1

stray stump
#

But x is not an integer though

plush merlin
#

But x isn't an integer in this case because it is sup of set of some natural numbers

#

Thus if sup(S)=x then n<x<n+1

#

Now you have to prove for sup(S)<x

#

Because sup(S)>x can't happen

#

Oh wait

stray stump
#

Sorry, I still do not follow. If S = {1,2,3}, then sup(S) = 3 no?

plush merlin
#

You have to prove that you can always find a set of natural numbers up to some natural number n which has a sup=x

stray stump
#

3 is an upper bound, and for all other upper bounds, 3 < those upper bounds

plush merlin
#

Yea a supremum can or cannot be a part of the set

#

I missed that it can be

#

My mind is working such that it can't

#

But it can in fact

#

Thanks for notifying me

upper kite
#

$\sup { 1 } = 1$, I think you will agree but what did you mean?

soft zealotBOT
plush merlin
#

I was working under the assumption that a sup can't be in the set but it can be

upper kite
#

oh okay

stray stump
#

So was the proof ok?

#

lol

upper kite
#

Proof Explanation by contradiction bhappy

stray stump
#

isnt that what proofs are lol

#

explaination

upper kite
#

yes and no

#

Ideally they are very explanatory

#

but in practice usually people take formal details and correctness as a priority.

#

Especially for statements like yours.

stray stump
#

alrightt

#

how should I proceed now lol

#

😭

upper kite
#

Anyway, "calculus is fun" is definitely correct in that $\sup(N) \not\in N$ is possible generally.

soft zealotBOT
plush merlin
#

Sorry guys I gtg sleep I am brain farting it's around 1:17 am rn

upper kite
#

So I think this bit could use further explanation/proof/whatever you will call it. πŸ™‚

upper kite
#

I will try help.

plush merlin
#

Have a nice day/night both of you cya both

stray stump
#

ty for help

upper kite
#

How did you define real numbers?

plush merlin
#

Np I didn't do anything I messed up alot

stray stump
upper kite
#

Since this is a very fundamentals-based question there is of course the important question what we are allowed to use.

stray stump
#

The explaination went something like

#

"it fills in the gaps of the rationals"

upper kite
upper kite
#

ha ha okay, let's see

stray stump
#

We did talk about the archimedean property of R

upper kite
#

Generally I like your approach with the supremum.

stray stump
#

yeah, that was the only tool we learned so far that I could think of.

upper kite
#

For the whether or not a wull be an integer ot not

#

there is a property of integers that any subset of the integers ahs the supremum and infimum as an element of it's set.

stray stump
#

axiom of completeness?

upper kite
#

However this is not godfgiven, so if you didn't proof it in class, I think it would need to be proved bhappy

upper kite
stray stump
upper kite
#

Any infiumum or supremum of a real ubset will be real (or infinity or negative infinity).

#

yes

#

The thing is though that we want a to be an integer.

#

We need to find a reason why a is an integer.

stray stump
#

which "a" are you referring to?

upper kite
#

your supremum

#

the supremum of S.

stray stump
#

Oh, we are keeping the idea of how I defined S earlier?

upper kite
#

I thought so?

stray stump
#

S = ${ n \in \mathbb{N} | n < x}$

#

okok

soft zealotBOT
upper kite
#

a = sup S

#

We have a lot to do now

#
  1. Why is a an integer
  2. Why is a < x
  3. Why is x < a + 1
#

have you at all heard about minimum/maximum vs supreumum/infimum?

stray stump
#

yes

upper kite
#

great

#

So I suggest proofing that our supremum is in fact a maximum

#

If we know this, than we get 1 & 2 for free

#

because IF it is a maximum, then a is in S

#

big IF

#

I think this is the thing "Calculus is fun" was tryingt to say.

stray stump
#

So basically supremum is maximum but can be outside of A.

upper kite
#

basically

stray stump
#

So is it even true that sup = max here?

upper kite
#

intuitively that is how i thought about supremums

#

if max exists, then always sup = max

#

However sometimes it is only a sup and not a max.

stray stump
#

well here the max does exist

upper kite
#

oh, why?

stray stump
#

Just take the biggest element in S, would that not be the maximum?

upper kite
#

we can't just take the biggest element of { x in real | 0 < x < 1 }

stray stump
#

right.

stray stump
#

hmm

#

ok

#

maybe we dont split into cases

#

S = ${ n \in \mathbb{Z} | n < x }$

soft zealotBOT
stray stump
#

so if x = 0.5, then S = {...,-2,-1,0}

upper kite
#

yeah tbh I think splitting cases is not necessary.

#

However i think this does nto solve the maximum/(supremum difficulty in any way.

#

@stray stump Let me know if you need more help.
