if you find the derivative of $f(x)=kx^3$ to $f'(x)=3kx^2$\
then since the normal is perpendicular to $f'(x)$ this must be true:\
$f'(2) \cdot \frac{1}{6} = -1$\
$12k \cdot \frac{1}{6} = -1$\
$k = -0.5$
chrelleren
Why do you make it = to -1
if two lines are perpendicular the product of their slopes is -1

why is, in the image, colored that blue part in the last graph? how (from the first disequation) we know what part need to be colored?
Since it should be larger than 0, it means that you are only considering the graph above the x-axis
and why i dont consider value that are beetween x1 and x2?
When you have values between x1 and x2, the solution is negative, the idea behind you sketching the graph is "for a certain value of x, your output is going to be y", now you want your inequality to be larger than or equal to 0, so you want the graph that is above instead of below
you can see values between x1 and x2 is below the x-axis (or the line drawn), which indicates a negative solution
sorry i dint understand, can you explain in simpler terms?
blue line is your graph and green area is y>0, if you have an inequality and you want it to be larger then 0, it means their solution needs to be a positive value
yes so every value that starts from the red point?
Yes
and also if you notice, the graph on the left also lies in the green area, so it also includes
the solution of my equation are 2, i draw them and accept only the one who is >= 0
but isnt it less than 0?
do you know what is a function? I'll try explain that way
no sorry, i only use f(x) as "a series of operstions with and x"
basically for A:
Your f(x) is x^2+2x-16 and you want f(x) >=0
so you are drawing out f(x) and y>=0, and you are finding the places where both the graph and the region touches each other
what is y in this case?
In general, when you have a number, to know if it is positive or negative you need to write it as a product (multiplication) of numbers whose signs you know
If you take the example
$x^2+2x-16 \geq 0$
Daddy_314
Notice it can be factored into
$(x + 1 - \sqrt{17})(x+1+\sqrt{17}) \geq 0$
Daddy_314
This is a multiplication of two numbers
$(x + 1 - \sqrt{17}) \times (x+1+\sqrt{17})$
you applied the delta formula, right? (to find the 2 solution)
Daddy_314
Its positive only when both of those numbers are positive or both are negative
So $x + 1 - \sqrt{17} \geq 0$ AND $x+1+\sqrt{17} \geq 0$
Daddy_314
Or
Both are <= 0
Once we solve each case, we can know which region to color
This is the true way to solve these questions
Any other way is a shortcut
That you will forget within a week
Not necessarily but you can
I completed the square
Take a simpler example
Without square roots
To see the method I explained
then how did you find out that it became x+1-sqrt 17?
$x^2+2x-16
= x^2+2x+1-17
= (x+1)^2 - 17
= (x+1)^2 - \sqrt{17}^2
= (x+1 - \sqrt{17})(x+1+\sqrt{17})$
Daddy_314
This is how
oh ok, i understand the process but not why and how you managed to think that
Daddy_314
i also did but i didnt even think about that ahaha
Well now you will
or i can use the formula, right?
You can, at your own risks
Also the formula
Came from exactly this method
If you read the proof of it
oh ok, perfect
so we have this, both of them need to be >=0 at the same time, right?
Or both negative !
what do we do after this point?
We solve the inequalities
Case 1.
x + 1 + sqrt(17) >= 0
And x+1-sqrt(17) >= 0
So
x >= -1-sqrt(17)
And x >= -1+sqrt(17)
(draw this)
On a line
Or:
Case 2.
x+1+sqrt(17)<= 0
And x+1-sqrt(17) <= 0
Draw this as well
And you will see for yourself
sorry but why also both negative?
Because the product of two negative numbers is positive
And the product of two positive numbers is positive
So since we know their product is positive, we can be in either one of those cases
If I tell you
$ab = 20$
Daddy_314
With a and b two integers
You can have a = 4 and b = 5
But also a = -4 and b = -5
yeah true
Notice this method we are doing
Might seem a bit longer
But it is important to do it entirely
A few times
Then you can use shortcuts
When you figure out where they come from
So try to do what I said
ok so i put this on geogebra?
What upper part
positive
upper part of the line, where positive solution are
Im asking for drawings like this
One drawing for each Case
(each case has two inequalities, so two lines to draw per case)
i am not understanding anymore sorry
Lets try it with a more basic example
Without square root of 17
Imagine you want to solve
$(x-1)(x+2) > 0$
Daddy_314
Case 1.
x-1>0
And x+2 > 0
Case 2
x-1<0
And x+2 < 0
Case 1:
x > 1 AND x> -2
Case 2:
x < 1
AND x <-2
So now we plot each case on the real line
Case 2 gives us this
x is less than 1 and x is less than -2
So x is < -2
This is the solution for case 2
We do the same for case 1
Do you understand ?
If not, there is no point doing degree 2 polynomial inequalities

notice that the particle is moving in a circular path
This is what I’ve tried to do
Idk if this is correct
so we apply centrifugal force on particle for the outward radial direction for the equilibrium
lemme see
i got sn theta wrong
im quite confused myself :/
i think you should use this equation
mgsin 0 + µN = mrw²cos θ
ive never seen this
how do i get to it?
equilibrium of particle (static friction)
is that mgsin theta or mgsin 0
theta sorry, my bad
let me know if you get the answer
I tried it with this equation and i got an answer
note here, µN is µ(mgcos θ+ mrw² sinθ)
im not 100% sure where this equation comes from
well, now you know
About the derivation...
Im not sure how to
ok
if you get the answer lemme know
i got the same
yessssssssssssssss
lets go
cmon
yes yes yes
thank you bro
(im slightly excited)
why did my teacher not let me know about this
you prolly wanna check that equaation with your prof or your teach, and confirm if its valid
w^2=326.86
w=18.07
w=18.1
glad to help
im sure there might be another way to do it but i think this is the easiest
wo when is the formula valid
10000x easier than what i did
for equilibrium of particle in static friction

hello, this is probably a silly question but im not sure if im right or not
"Plot some points that are 5 units from the origin in the taxicab metric. What does the entire set of such points look like? Sketch it. Also sketch the set of points that are 5 units from the origin in the Euclidean metric. Call this set C for later reference."
i think i understand the euclidean metric part of the question, it's a circle with a radius of 5 from the origin
the taxicab metric i think of like a knight in chess, if the knight could move X number of squares in any up/down/left/right combination of moves
so would that look more like this? (one sec sketching this fast)
just imagine 4 of those
but that's the general idea as i understand it. am i right?
well ok you drew some boxes. but what are the points you need to draw
with the taxicab if the points are 5 from the origin they need to be (5,0) (4,1) (3,2) (2,3) and so on?
is there something between those?
yes
taxicab = square centered on the origin, euclidean would be 5 from the origin but in a circle instead of a square?
no
i'm in precalc and it's my first math in 22 years, i'm using khan academy to try to catch up and patch holes in my knowledge
yesterday i realized i'd completely forgot about the pythagorean theorem. totally forgot all about it.
you probably get this all the time but i cannot thank you enough

is anyone able to help with part 2
i think that means that the normal force is doing all the radial force?
like friction doesnt play a part in contributing to radial force?
Get the centripetal force and the normal force. Get their components in the direction of the slope. Then see for which angle they cancel each other out
im confused about the normal force
cause if this is my fbd
how did my teache get this

Do you have any idea as to how to start?
currently i found the iqr of class x and class y
which is 3x for x and y-1 for y
then i did 3x=3(y-1) since its 3times more
but im not sure what to do anymore
Yep, good looking, then of course you can also then say as a result you know x = y - 1
What about the median statement?
do i do x^2-3= y^2-y/2
Yep, that’ll do 
You have that, but at the same time, that x = y - 1
Can you cook with that? 
Yep basically 
ok so i got x= -2 or 3 and y=4 and -1
im not sure how to calculate the percentage
actually i get it

So im making some headway with understanding things since my last question
But this has me stumped
I think its a circle with the origin at -3,-9
And a radius of 5
But im not going to lie, i pulled that out of my backside
Close
Double check your origin
Radius is right tho
How do i double check my origin
Up until now ive mostly been doing problems with an origin of 0,0
Ive been at this math work for four hours today and im just short of the halfway point, i feel so discouraged
You have the signs flipped
No. That's not why
(x+3)²+(y+9)²=5² would have an origin of -3,-9
Why do you flip the signs?
Imagine this was our function. If we choose x=-3, then we're solving 0²+(y+9)²=5², which has solutions y=-9+5 and y=-9-5. In short this means the extreme y points are 5 units away from the coordinate -9. Likewise, if we choose y=-9, then we would get x=-3+5 and x=-3-5, which is 5 away from the coordinate -3. These four points we've found describe a circle of radius 5 centered around the point -3,-9
Another good way to find the origin is to just solve (x-h)²+(y-k)²=0. There's only one solution, and it will be the origin
One sec reading
Did you mean if x=3 instead of -3?
For the second part where you gave the formula what do you plug in for h and k? Is it the same as (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2= 0
I'm struggling to understand
Did i lose you
I'll just try again later

7b
how do u do b
There's several ways, such as using the classical quadratic formula, x = -b ± √..
that's right
you see that the discriminant (number under the square root) is negative
which suggests the quadratic has no real solutions
it does have *complex * solutions though but if you haven't learnt about complex numbers then stopping at no real solution is good enough
this is the solution?
thats what my teacher put
lgkoo
they made a mistake then
they forgot to keep the square root for 11

Hello I have a statistics-related question.
I'm trying to justify using a pearson's correlation coeffecient over spearman's correlation coeffecient to test the relationship between poverty rates and disease incidence rates.
The data does have an outlier but appears to have a normal distribution.
I have tested for both coeffeicients and I have found spearman's coefficients to be generally lower (but not by much) to the pearson coefficients. Is that enough justification to choose Pearson's test?
what does the scatterplot look like?
those don't exactly look linear to me (esp. the second one) so IMO Spearman is more appropriate
so it doesn't matter that much whether either value is higher or lower?
since I know that having an outlier is already pretty indicative of using a spearmans correlation
it depends on how you define "an outlier". but Pearson's correlation is for a linear relationship, and I don't think those look close enough to linear. looks like an exponential decay, kinda
but I don't know if there's a one-size-fits-all rule. you can see some of the answers here for example: https://stats.stackexchange.com/q/8071/42597
there's more useful information here as well: https://stats.stackexchange.com/q/3730/42597
I see thank you very much
I think I'll do both tests but only analyze the ones using spearmans
based on what I'm reading
the gap between the two values probably means that the data I have doesn't completely fit some conditions for pearsons
thank you again

i wanna figure out if i got the right answer, i will type out my though process in a second
so the method i used was just process of elimination
first i saw all periods were 2pi/65 so that doesnt help
i then saw you are looking for height/ vertical position, this made me cross out both cos answers leaving me with only B or D
next i saw the max height and min height, 48 and 8 respectivly
if i did D i would see the middle point/ start point is 20, with an amplitude of 28, this means that max height is 48 but min height is -8, and that does make any sense logically and for the problem
but for B, you start at 28 with an amplitude of 20 leaving you with max height of 48 and min height of 8 whioch mathces the description
so i chose B
is there a reason you put an X on this, what does not make sense about that?
i did not x'd the 2pi/65, you are correct in that aspect
what i x'd is the reason you eliminated the options a and d
the way the options gave cos and sin is to determine the starting phase, it has nothing to do with horizontal or vertical, i believe you are confusing the wheel for a unit circle
what i recommend is drawing a simple diagram
wo if it isnt B, which one would you say it is?
thats for you to decide, im simply telling whats wrong and right
if it isnt obvious already, this is a harmonic oscillation problem
we will use the upward direction as the positive direction, we would have this diagram, where A is the amplitude
amplitude is 20, the middle is 28 indeed
so we eliminate C and D first and foremost
$A\cos(\omega t + \phi) + y$
this is your usual oscillation function, where A is the amplitude, omega is the angular freq, phi is the starting phase, y is the vertical displacement
we determined amplitude to be 20 and vertical displacement to be 28, so we eliminate c and d
so wait, wouldnt either B or A work?
now the problem also gave an interesting information, that is at t = 0, the person is at the top of the wheel
yes, though not explicitly
ohh, t seconds after the top
so you are finding verticel position after passing the top
meaning, if you sub in t = 0 into the function, the person is at A + y height
yeah, okok, i just missed that small detial
but it means a lot
thank you, i get what i did wrong now, the way i did it was if you calculate vertical postions from the center of the wheel, at 28 feet
but you need to start at 48
yes, you need to analyze every information given, sometimes they can be subtle like that

How come I can forget about the absolute value sign in this step?
because the exponential function can only take
on positive real values
it's a bijection between R and (0, infinity)
@uneven bridge
Ohh right! Thank you
Also, what is the reason the absolute value pops up again right at the end of this?
Is it just a mistake or is there a reason?
It’s solving a differential equation
@uneven bridge Has your question been resolved?

is there any reason to use radians instead of angle when using sin functions?
for any trig function, you can use either degrees or radians to evaluate it
if you are given measurements given in terms of pi, it would be far easier to use radians
but if you are given measurements in degrees, like an angle measure, use degrees
use whatever ur more comfortable with, radians just comes out neater half the time imo
I guess that makes sense
fair
do any of you know how to change what the sin in geogebra uses?
well the sine function just represents the the opposite length from the angle over the hypotenuse
that’s the only way it can be used
and it must be a right triangle
but in geogebra the sin function looks like this
sin(rad)
yes
how do I make it look like this
sin(angle)
oh well you can convert radians to degrees by multiplying a radian measurement by 180/pi
well pi is equivalent to 180° on the unit circle
when we're talking radius
yeah you can just convert sin(rad) to sin(deg) by multiplying rad by 180/pi
and inputting that value back into the sin function
For example: Let’s say I want to evaluate the function: sin(pi/2)
I can convert pi/2 to degrees by multiplying it by 180°/pi
When multiplying them, the pi cancel out and you are left with 180°/2, which is 90°
So now, we can use sin(90°) instead of sin(pi/2), which is equal to one

thank you ^^
yes thank you
thank you all

is there another way of getting 3 than whatever the fuck that was
each permutation corresponds to 10 numbers that add up to 4
but its like i dont think id come up with a solution like that on my own
e.g. **||||*|||*|| means 2 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 0
so 13! / 4! / 9!
i don't think so either
this the most complicated solution ive ever seen for a stars and bars problem

I don't know how to solve it I just want to know the approach
@arctic hill did you attempt anything at all?
try to solve for a
and read the question carefully and maybe something will click
if your still stuck, let me know
its better if you try to think your way through this problem though
but i can give you a hint: carefully read and understand the question
@arctic hill Has your question been resolved?
yes
@idle kayak
I solved for a but it became a radical in terms of b
what root is the radical?
3
and what does the question say that a is?
a positive integer
well a and b
ye
you need to find a positive integer B that would end up turning everything inside of the radical to be a perfect cube
oh ok
and the cube root of that value is the least possible value of A
oh ok
how would you find it fast?
because that's a lot of guess and check in the end

ab/cd = 0,c4.
The letters represent the digits not multiplication
what are you asked to do, find out what a,b,c, and d are?
so you have a 2 digit number ab divided by another 2 digit number cd to give you the decimal number 0.c4?
$$\frac{10a+b}{10c+d}=\frac{10c+4}{100}$$
qwertytrewq
@tranquil pine try rearranging by cross multiplying to get rid of the fractional part first
1000a+100b = 100c+4d
double check that multiplication
(10c+d)(10c+4) is not 100c+4d
try this: (10c+d)(10c+4)=10c(10c+4)+d(10c+4) by distributive property
apply the distributive property again to get what neil got
10 c*10c = 100 c^2
10c * 10c is 100c²
look very closely at each term of the multiplication here
100c^2 + 40 c + d10c + 4d
So we have $$1000a+100b = 100c^2+40c+10cd+4d$$ Notice the left side of the equation is divisible by 10, when is the right side of the equation divisible by 10?
qwertytrewq
im lost
so we have 1000a+100b is divisible by 10 right?
yes
but the equation we established tells us that 100c^2+40c+10cd+4d is divisible by 10
those first three terms are always divisible by 10, so it comes down to figuring out when 4d is divisible by 10
but d can have so many values
there are digits
its a digit so its only from 0 to 9
d is an integer between 0 and 9
there’s one more option
0?
yup
yeah
so now what
we can now do these case by case
though hold up
d can’t be 0
because you’d be dividing ab by cd to get 0.c4
if d is 0, then cd looks like 10 or 20 or 30 or something
27/50?
fuck
wait
never mind
you got the answer
i was onto nothing
there is more than one solution
no
this is the only solution
i checked my math book
it gives the answer without solving it
06 is just 6
okay d is either 0 or 5, let’s assume d is 0
because when a=0 b=6 we get 06=6
a cant be 0
we casework on d=0 or d=5
a is null
then in this equation if d is 0, you get 1000a + 100b = 100c² + 40c
ok then ignore the other solution
if the left is divisible by 100, so is 100c² + 40c
100c² is always divisible by 100
when is 40c divisible by 100, when c is a number from 1 to 9
0 and 5
yeah so c = 5 and d = 0 for this case
can you find ab now given cd=50?
now ab / 50 = 0.c4
0.54
oh oops, yeah
ok, but we are not done yet
how
that’s the case when d = 0
we need to conclude that d=5 yields no solution
if d = 5, 1000a + 100b = 100c² + 90c + 20
now left hand side is a multiple of 4
could we repeat the same reasoning with the left being a multiple of 100 and checking when 90c + 20 is a multiple of 100?
i think so
so 90c is a multiple of 80
not necessarily
..
90c + 20 could be 200
wait
i just rather brute force at this point
9c + 2 = 10
so 100a + 10b = 10c² + 9c + 2
= a multiple of 10, but not just 10
yeah so when is 9c + 2 a multiple of 10, more casework for c being somewhere between 1 and 9
yes
and?
there’s another?
no
so c is 2
okay so when d = 5, c = 2
so ab / 25 = 0.24
wait
that just gives ab = 6
and i’m assuming that’s not allowed
definitely not
great so the solution we found earlier is the only one
ok
27/50
we do a similar thing here
got it
how to write in texit
$$\frac{10a+b}{10c+d}=\frac{10d+c}{100}$$
neil
🤔 you can pull up some videos on how to use latex
?
what is (10c+d)(10d+c), again remember to use distributive property
its not just 10c*10d+c*d
100cd + 10c^2 + 10d^2+ cd
yes
good!
so 1000a + 100b = 101cd + 10c² + 10d²
what number can we use to check divisibility?
10
good so now it’s a question of when 101cd is a multiple of 10
it might be useful to know that 101 is a prime
or we reduce it to 1cd💀
how
101cd=100cd+cd
^
or if you use the prime reasoning, the only way 101 * cd would be a multiple of 10 would be if cd contained 2 and 5 as factors
by the fundamental theorem of arithmetic
so either way cd must be multiple of 10
😂 this seems too advanced for this question lol
i realized after lol
how do you know that
the answers
by cd we mean c*d
oh
guyss this might be too complex for me
well if c and d are one digit numbers that multiply to 10, one must be 2 and one must be 5
usually in math we write $$\overline{cd}$$ to represent digits
qwertytrewq
and cd to represent product
does this reasoning make sense
yes
we gon case check 0 to 40? 💀
13/25 and 13/52
wdym?
uhhh
c*d could be any multiple of 10
guys thanks for the help but this is way too complicated for me
fuck
my math teacher will surely think i copied it
what grade is this?
idk how else you were supposed to solve it other than guess and check
6th
what the hell
i turned 13 in april btw
💀 is it just a challenge problem?
nope
congratulations
no wonder the algebra and factoring and stuff seemed hard
the thing is
bro’s in 6th grade 😭
my teacher gave everyone some tests
to solve until this week
she gave us 2 months
and each test has 5 subjects
its for a grade
so thanks for the help

what does it mean by an indeterminate period?
Could you show the context?
here @amber holly
Seems like they meant that period can't be determined
but 4a is already a fundamental period yea?
the answer key says the answer should be option A
so do u think theres a misprint in the option itself?
shouldnt it be 4a and not 4
what do u think
Not necessarily
but that's the min +ve integer
Yeah looks like they have a typo in option a
How do you know there is no smaller positive period?
cus now the values just keep increasing
that was the smallest one
am i wrong? 😭
oh it got cut from the above but basically i let 4a=T
to show
yajat
hello layla u should be sleeping rn
correct
i just slept for 5 hours which was not enough but now i can't fall back asleep
oh i know how it feels like, u feel like going back to sleep cus it feels weird low on sleep but at the same time u cant fall asleep for some reason
i hope u fall back asleep soon 😭
i think i my doubt is cleared
thanks bean
my sleep schedule is perpetually fucked so i don't think i will
this still feels like an upgrade from waking up at 7 pm tho so i'll take it
listen i tried
math
oh ok fair
no i’m not in school anymore i just do math for fun
in some sense
ok well i guess if u feel like ur more effective at night then u should keep it up
i don’t haha
💀
i like working in the day so i can use my outdoor chalkboard
but i haven’t been able to most days
getting up at 7 pm makes that difficult
outdoor chalkboard that sounds rly fun
it is!
i like whiteboards too
make it a indoor one so u can now start using it at night too lmfao
personally i feel like the chalk one is better the writing sound just makes it fun
also its easy to erase
only thing i don’t like is my hands getting covered in chalk
never tried it
lmao ok u should tho

i only have one piece of chalk though and i forgot to steal some from school when i went in today
so rip me if i run out
stealing chalks is fun fr they have so many nice ones
they even have so many colorful chalks
my friend has a lot of colored hagoromo chalk he brings in but don’t wanna steal those from him
do you use a chalk holder
no
have u ever tried it?
damn wym by hagoromo
ask him if he could get u some
it’s a famous chalk brand
yea i have one but it’s at my mom’s house. as well as a bunch of colored hagoromo chalk
yea if not for the fact i don’t wanna step foot in there
damn u dont like ur mom? 😭
no 
bruh why
i have an online friend and she doesnt like her mom too she always tells me how she wanna move out
ok maybe this was a bit personal
don’t really wanna talk about it
yea ok no problem with that
ok imma close this channel now i have to leave for my classes now

Given Matrix $A = \begin{pmatrix} -2 & -1 & 1 \ -1 & -2 & -1 \ 1 & -1 & -2 \end{pmatrix}$
キマイラ
How can i approach calculating Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors?
Do i begin with doing $A - \lambda I = 0$
キマイラ
You begin by solving for lambda in det(A - lambdaI) = 0 rather than A - lambdaI = 0
キマイラ
I dont know what to do after this
use the rational root theorem
you want the solutions to this characteristic equation
oh i miscalculated
SO its -x(x+3)^2
and in order to get the Eigenvalues i have to find the Zeroes?
for this function
like $-x(x+3)^2 = 0$ ?

mainly why is the parametrzation x,y=t,0
mmm ok

I know how to do most of it but I don’t understand the part where it’s from D to E
Find the lengths of the sides of the triangle, and then you can use Pythagoras theorem
Which sides
The ones I drew
Let the point where there is the right angle be K
Oh you got it?
25-8-7= 10
Yeah
What’s after that?
Find KE
Sorry I’m struggling
K? You mean D?
No K, the point where I made the right angle
Oh rightt
DK is 10cm, we just found, and DKE is 90°
Yes
You understand this diagram?
Yesyes
Yeah so if you see, BC + KE = AF
Yeah so put in the values of bc and af, and find KE
Wait so I’ll minus AF by BC then?
Yep
So 4
But if you are trying to find x then you won’t really need to find DE, only need DK and KE
Yeah
So I just ignore that DE line?
Oh it’s ok now, I was saying it before you calculated it
