Basically its the same as saying det = lambda_1 * lambda_2
should be equal to height x length
which is true ?
yes
well now the corners are at other places
determinant formula doesnt change
so its correct that its 1
1 * 1-lambda * 0 = 1
as for L_a(M) im not 100% sure
if only you had done the previous step properly instead of skipping it halfway through
what was the proper way ?
well I tried to tell you several times
for example I described it here
right, so we times A with a vector (v1,v2) where v1 and 2 are between 0 and 1
yes
and then ?
Why between 0 and 1 anyways when the question wants lambda set to 2 and 3 for example
because (v1,v2) is in M
So what happens after we times it with values between 1 and 0
We get a matrix like
0.5 0
0 0.5 for example
How do you want to multiply a 2x1 with a 2x1
they are from the start
Yeah and they can be from 0 to 1
Times the matrix we can get a matrix with:
0.5,0
0,0.5
why should we get a matrix
we are doing $\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} v_1 \ v_2 \end{pmatrix}$
Denascite
that will give you a vector
I thought we are doing
v1 * (a,b)
Yes, okay
because its stated here
v1 * ... + v2 * ...
anyways
if v1 and v2 = 0.5 and lambda 1 and lambda 2 = 1, then we get a vector (0.5, 0.5)
The point is that v1 and v2 between 0 and 1 form a square when multiplied with the original A
and you can shift the values of lambda to get different squares
the corners still remaining the same
yes
corners move
but you still have the position being equal to (0,0), (lambda1, 0), (0, lambda2), etc
that is always the same
yes
right
idk how to show that L_a(M) = 1 here
determinant is 1 because: 1 * 1-lambda * 0 = 0
what is A*v where v are the corners (0,0), (0,1), (1,0) and (1,1)
(0,0), (lambda, 1), (1,0), (lambda+1, 1)
draw that
mhm
ah, I see
height = 1
its just that position is lambda, 1 and lambda+1, 1
which also shows that the width is only 1
nice
well width is the wrong word here

\textbf{Question:} A class in advanced physics is composed 10 juniors, 30 seniors, and 10 graduate students. final grades show that 5 of the juniors, 10 of the seniors, and 5 of the graduate students received an A for the course. If a student is chosen at random from this class and is found to have earned an A, what is the probability that he or she is a senior?
\vs{5 mm}
\textbf{My attempt:}
\vs{3 mm}
Let $A$ be the event that someone receives an A \[2 mm]
Let $B$ be the event that someone is a senior. Then: [
\m\P{A\cap B} = \f{10}{50} = \f15 \
\m\P{A} =\f{20}{50} = \f25
]
which implies [
\m\P{B\given A} = \f{\ff15}{\ff25} = \f12
]
Yeah

line 3 to line 4
You removed the parentheses after 6
$$6(2x^2-x-8x+4)=0$$ is correct, and your grouping is right, but you need to make sure theyre all in parenthesis like so
$$6(x(2x-1)-4(2x-1))$$
light
You should focus on the inside
Wdym by "x term"?
4(2x-1) itself is a term
Just get rid of the 6 from second line
Divide both side by 6
Life easier

@gusty pond Has your question been resolved?
What do you mean which proof is better?
You proved the contrapositive (n odd implies n^2 odd) and that's valid
your direct proof needs to be worded with the same rigour that you had above i.e. n^2 = 2k, for some integer k, show that this implies that k also needs to have a factor of 2, so you really have n^2 = 4 j (or whatever number) so n = 2 k

Which is more accurate?
They both work, I am pretty sure
if they both work then they're both accurate, one isn't more accurate than the other
Which one do you prefer as a mathematician?
because of the difference in rigour of how you wrote them, I like the contrapositive one better. Your direct proof needs some work. But all else being equal, there's no preference on contrapositivse vs direct proof. The thought is usually if there's a direct proof, why not go for it?
also your direct proof isn't right maybe? why does n^2/2 have to be even? If n^2 is even, all we know is that n^2/2 is an integer

How to solve a 2 step linear equation
add or subtract to isolate terms with the variable on one side, then divide both sides by the coefficient of the variable.
i.e.
4x + 7 = 9 given
4x + 7 - 7 = 9 - 7 subtract
4x = 2 simplify
(4x)/4 = 2/4 divide
(4/4)x = 1/2 simplify
x = 1/2 answer

convert from polar to rectangular coordinate
r^2 = 3cos(theta)-5rsin(theta)
Why is the modulus only in sin(theta)?
modulus?
oh thats just the way the problem is gaven to me
Didn't you learn polar coords as "x + yj = rcos(x) + rsin(x)"?
What is the question exactly?
just need to convert into rectangular coordinate but im not sure if i should have done conversions first or multiply both sides by r

Can someone explains why it's<1 and <2 pls
wdym why?
why its different?
just study the given functions and you'll see those are probably the best constants
study the function
differentiate it, find the maximum, stuff like that
or just bound it
with inequalities
Maximum is just >0 ?
Can I just sub y->infinity ?
why would you?
its helpful to say that the function is bounded
because its continuous
but it doesnt give you the bound
Isn't continuous mean the left hand side must be equal to the right hand side too?
left hand side and right hand side of what?
The limit is equal

then i get
plug in the point first for fx and fy

Why are you evaluating f at those specific values (2.2,2.4,2.6…)
Also you can’t say f(a+b)=2^a+2^b (I think thats what you are doing but I cant really tell)
cause the function is 2^x and delta x is 0.4 so the middle of that is 0.2
i originally did 2^1.2 but my sum was wrong so i thought maybe the mistake was not spliting it
but its still wrong 
Ok I agree with this, but I do not see how you are jumping from this to that. the function f passes through the mid point of each rectangle. You want to get the height of each triangle. To do this you need to evaluate the function at the x values that are midpoints of the rectangles
Yeah I like that much more
im not geting exactly the midpoint of each rectangle
im getting the midpoint of the first
adding 0.2 which is the left point of the next
and so on
great! let me see if that fixes my bug
thanks that worked!
Nice

How do I not get this wrong? I can sort of do it but I only get it second try bc my first one is always wrong!!!!!
For this I found x by making y a 0 so it’s gone and same for finding y. I got
X = 3
Y = -1.5
Ok so 2 of the options have a y intercept of -1.5 how do I determine which of the two is correct?
Just for clarity, you narrowed it down to which two options? @smoky bane
The second and the last
that will work if you solve the inequality for y first
How?
like y = mx+b form
Ohhh
except it won't be =
It’s in standard form right now ?
yes
How can I change to ymxb form
would you know how to do it if it was an = sign instead of > or <
yeah
you've got 2x-4y all on that side
so what can you do to get rid of the 2x?
and just leave -4y
-2x
yeah
Ok ok
so now you've got what
-4y > 6 -2x ? I think I accidentally changed the sign here
Divide -4
yep
and when you divide by a negative number, the inequality sign changes direction
Y < -1.5 + 0.5x ?
since you divided by a negative number, -4, the inequality sign flips
so it should be y <
actually, for figuring out which side of the line is shaded, that's the only thing that matters
is whether or not you need to flip the >/< sign
And to figure it out I need to change to y intercept form?
Are they easier
sorta, but you need to be able to move equations around like you just did anyway
Yes I should practice
like in general for your class
but yes, you can also figure out which side of the line needs to be shaded by just choosing a point on one side and seeing if it works for the inequality
which is probably easier
Would I choose the one inside or outside of the shaded area?
Bc they told us to pick a point and try it but I didn’t know which one
yes
if you pick a point above the line and plug it in, and the inequality is true
then shade above the line
otherwise, shade below the line
it should always be true for one side or the other
Hi can you please help me again?
There is a question “describe the graph of y > mx, where m > 0” but I don’t understand this.. m is greater than 0 ok but what’s next
@fossil geyser
do you have choices or is it open ended?
ok well
what can you tell me about the graph of y > mx
if m > 0, in other words m is positive
yes exactly, it has positive slope
or you could say it's increasing
what else can you say?
y can be anything, positive or negative
just like x can be anything, (x,y) can be any point on the graph
whether or not that point is shaded in is whether or not the inequality is true (in this case, if y > mx is true)
remember before once you put it in y > mx + b form
you could see whether it was shaded above or below
Yes
that's something else you can describe about the graph
And it would be dotted line right
yes, awesome
dotted line with a positive slope
I think there's a couple other things you can say
Ok it says correct and I see other possible answers where it passes through the origin
How to tell?
Is it bc there’s no + b because it’s 0 ?

alright thank you

is there a better method of solving it tho because i feel my method is not very traditional
I'm sure there is but I don't have time to look at it too much, hopefully someone else can help

can anyone calculate an integral for me in mathematica
i did an integral but wolfram alpha can't calculate it symbollically
If wolfram alpha gave you that then the integral is most likely non-elementary
well wolfram alpha gives me a decimal
Being able to approximate a number doesn't mean there is a closed form for it though
Wait
,w integrate e^(sin(x)cos(x)) from 0 to pi/2
how do i calculate struve function and bessel function in wolfram alpha
,w bessel function at 1/2
besel I
modified
,w pi/2 * ((modified bessel function of order 0 at 1/2)+(modified struvefunction of order 0 at 1/2))
uh huh
Wolfram Alpha doesn't understand your query!
Perhaps try rephrasing your question?
Click here to refine your query online
Make it evaluate each function at 1/2 and just enter their approximations instead
,w struve function at 1/2
,ask (pi/2)*(StruveL[0, 0.5]+BesselI[0, 0.5])
yayyy i got the right result
Great
this integral was so cool

You roll 4 dice and sum their values, what is the probabilty their sum is odd
what condition do the numbers need such that the sum is odd?
for this I think you need 2 odd and 2 even numebers which is 4C2 * 1/2^4 ?
Is it 1 odd number and 3 even
yep there you go
this method is too hard
Can I do 2 * 4C3 * 1/2^4
you can do 1/2
yes
its intuitively 1/2 as well as frog is probably explaining, but its good to know the math*
* the combinarical way
if the first 3 numbers sum to odd, you have 1/2 chance that it stays odd with the 4th roll
if the first 3 numbers sum to even, you have 1/2 chance that it becomes odd with the 4th roll
Ah okok
it's important to understand that rolling 4 dice at the same time has the same outcomes as rolling one at a time
Then does the actual amount of dies mattter, is it the sum for n die always has a 1/2 chance of being odd
doesn't matter
Interesting I guess a number can only be even or odd lol
Thank you both for your help!

wondering if i am considering this question correctly
if statement p(n) is false in statement a, then p(n+1) is also false as otherwise p(n+1) is true and p(n+2) could be false, which is bad. then for b, i think same logic applies
clearly a is case b=1 for statement b, but i think logically they're equivelant. if p(n) is true, then p(n+1), p(n+2)... must be true for statement to be true i.e. statement b is true. converse works as well
only hesitant about logic when P(n) false and P(n+1) false, making statement true, (F -> F) which i think is equivelant to b

Find the hexadecimal expansion of (111101)2 .
This is what i got and i just wanted to make sure if it was right or not
usually $(\text{stuff})_2$ means the stuff is in base 2
IV
so i missed a step? im having a hard time understanding
it means the question is asking you to convert the binary number 111101 to hex
not a hexadecimal number 111101 to binary
so how would i go about starting that?
so instead for instance 1 * 16^5 i would do 1 * 2^5 ?
What you're doing here is converting binary to decimal, which is a good first step
Now put it into a calculator and see what you get
i get 61!
So in binary it's 11101, and in decimal its 61
Now you can convert 61 to hexadecimal
Have you learned how to do that?
its kinda foggy would it be okay to go over it?
OH actually I remember let me try it real quick!
i got 3D!

hey yall
trying to get this series to converge to about 1/7
1/6**
this particular series is obviously undefined as you can see
but why is this?
and why does the substition sin(x) = 2sinh(x/2) cosh(x/2) make this converge?
my best guess was that ok youve got sinh in the denominator, so when it is zero that's undefined
and afaik cosh has no zeroes in the reals
but even when sinh is in the numerator this is undefined
why might that be?
@modest perch Has your question been resolved?
why?
well have u tried substituting yourself?
Yes
why is it undefined again?
Thats what im trying to figure out
But an equivalent function with the mentioned substitution causes it to go to 1.67, which is what i wanted

Hello
What does K trans mean here?
Kinetic energy due to translatory motion.
What does that exactly mean?
What's the difference between K rotational
Well, K rotational is kinetic energy due to the object's rotation.
These are two different motion types, in translatory motion the orientation of the body remains same throughout the motion.
However in rotation the orientation changes as well as the object rotates about an axis.
An example for all this could be a ball rolling.
When it's rolling, it moves forward and also rotates if you see that.
The motion that's causing the ball to move forward is translatory motion and the other is rotation.
For instance, if the ball had no translatory velocity it'd be rotating at its place without moving forward.
However because of the translatory velocity it moves forward.
So they are two different things.
Similarly it is also possible for the ball to move forward without rotating.
Oh so you mean, K trans can exist with K rot?
With or without, yes.

I understand how to verify the linearity of the transformation and
how to find the kernel
But I want to know how to determine the image
For Q25
The kernel is by inputting the general degree 2 polynomial f(t) = a + bt + ct^2
f'(t) = b + 2ct
f''(t) = 2c
T(a + bt + ct^2) = 2c + 4(b + 2ct) = 2c + 4b + 8ct
2c + 4b + 8ct = 0 -> b = c = 0
Kernel consists of functions in P2 of the form f(t) = a
T(a + bt + ct^2) = 2c + 4(b + 2ct) = 2c+4b+8ct
Thats the image? all polynomials of the form 2c+4b+8ct?
c is free here
8ct is free
for 2c+4b, b is also free
so 2c+4b is free
free means it can be any value without constraint
we can use a single variable for the free terms
so we can write 2c+4b+8ct as x+yt
hm
never seen something like this before. c and b are free because they aren't t I'm guessing right
the independent variable of the function f(t)
I've just never seen free variables done outside of matrix stuff I guess
idk what other calls it

how would you solve a question like this?
I'm tryna look at it
thanks
I'm very inclined to say that it's 0.5, because D is the midpoint
But I wouldn't say so for sure
What class even gave you this problem?
In uni? Or hs?
hs
haha
But here in Ontario we have nothing like this
weird
I think I'm supposed to find 2 possible paths that lead to E
and then use algebra to substitute it in
Well for sure we have that the ratio u which we're looking for would be the ratio of the area of triangle OEB to the area of triangle OAB, but i don't know at all how we can grab those areas
If EB was a perpendicular bisector to CA that would be much helpful
But we don't have that
It's just a random bisector
Yeah you're right , I'm not exactly thinking of it in terms of vectors tho I'm supposed to. I'm thinking if it as like lines and triangles, and ik that if two triangles have the same height then the ratio of their bases is equal to the ratio of their areas

Hello! How do you find "c" in order to get only one result of the equation? Thanks!
what should the discriminate equal to
once you figured that out
you have solved the problem basically
there's only one solution if it's in the form of a(x-b)^2=0
do you know what a discriminant is?
some schools study it, some don't, so just clarifying
b^2 - 4ac
it's the thingy under square root in the quadratic formula
if it's equal to 0, then there's only one solution
b^2 - 4ac = 0
yes
But if i don't have the value of "c", how can i do it?
you solve for it
b^2 - 4ac = 0
b = 13
a = -4
c = c (lol)
subtitute those values and solve for c
Oh yes i did that but i'm stuck here:
i don't know what to do with 16c inside of square root
Oh
solve 169+16c=0

how do i figure out the probability of drawing out two blocks of the same color from a box if there’s 12 red blocks, 5 blue blocks, 9 yellow blocks and 8 white blocks? i already did some tasks that r linked to this one but i can’t even figure out how to start this one like do i just start with the probability of drawing out one block which is 1?
this is assuming that the first block you took out isn’t put back into the box after drawing the first one out
@crystal mirage Has your question been resolved?
This is the multivariate hypergeometric distribution
i have never heard of that word ever
You can look up that to find the probability of drawing one block of a given color
yes
so first i’m supposed to find out the different probabilities of drawing out a block of a specific color?
so then it’d just be 12/34 for red 8/34 for white 5/34 for blue and 9/34 for yellow
for the first draw
?
Mhmm, there might be a simpler way to figure this out
i don’t even understand what’s going on 😭
All we care about is the probability of drawing a second block that is the same color as the first
yes
For the first draw, there are four possibilities, right?
yes
Have you heard of the law of total probability?
it might have a different term in my language
i speak norwegian
explain it and i’ll know if i have heard of it?
Oh, cool, I'm half norwegian
wow really?
Does any of this ring a bell?
nope
like p(a)* p(b)
No, that's different. That's for independant events
Alright, then my approach will be hard to understand
hmm
okay
What is the probability that your second draw is also a red block?
11/33
Read as "probability of drawing two red blocks given that the first block you drew was red"
| <- this means "given"
i think i understand
Now, we can write the same sort of probability for the other colors
P(BB | B), P(YY | Y), P(WW | W)
okay
Now I think you can use the law of total probability to write P(XX) using these four conditional probabilities
P(XX) is the probability of drawing two of the same color
Mhmm, you know what, I thought of a simpler way to explain this
okay
i’m not too sure honestly this was supposed to be a short chapter so i think we’ve only covered the p(a) * p(b) thing
Okay, what about something like this: P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B) for mutually exclusive events
also known as disjoint events
wait let me check what those terms are in norwegian
no haven’t covered it yet but i understood what those terms meant after checking
Ok, good. This will be much simpler
So, the events of interest are RR, BB, YY, WW
And these events are mutually exclusive
just to make sure mutually exclusive events are events that cannot happen at the same time right?
Yes
oki
So if you take a block out, it can only be one color
yes
Now we use this to write P(XX) = P(RR)+P(BB)+P(YY)+P(WW)
They are all disjoint, so you can sum up the probability, right?
Here, XX= RR or BB or YY or WW
so i’m supposed to plus together the probability of drawing two red, two blue, two white and two yellow?
okay
Now, we know that if you draw 1 R, the probability of drawing the second was 11/33, right?
yes
Now we just need some basic conditional probability to write P(RR)
which would mean?
okay
