and the problem only mentians rotations
5 pizzas are AAAA and 10 pizzas are ABAB
so i would do 610/4 + 5 + 10 so that's wrong
it doesn't divide
ya but im wrong too i think cuz im not accoutning for repetitions
bye imma try working it out
so there's AABB too and stuff
ya
hello i need help with math notes
this ones alr taken
okat
same
so my first solution did work
are you still here
@golden cave
btw seems to high
ya but im explaining and i cant think of a differet answe
so then each of the possibilites without the rotations has four rotations
except for 256
ye
which are abab or aaaa like he said
mhmm
it's not too high, you can make 16^4 pizzas after rotations, you divide it by 4 and you get 16 thousand
so we take that out and divide it by four
(I agree with 16456)
and then we add 256
i'm not sure about it becuase it might have rotations
oh wait
i have an idea
They are accounted for
and if we account for the fact that abab and baba are both possible then we subtract 16*15/2 for the baba case
oh yea
and we get (16^4-256)/4+256-15*16/2 which gives 16456
do you know if you got it right
yea lol
yay
i have one more
There are $8$ identical chairs around a circular table. In how many ways can $5$ people be seated in $5$ of these chairs if Richard wants to sit next to either Surya or Tamas (or both Surya and Tamas)?
(Consider two seating arrangements to be the same if one seating arrangement can be rotated to obtain the other.)
✪~nano-rōnin~✪
this is confusing
i feel like you can do a similar thing here with the rotations
maybe you can do inclusion-exclusion
?
definitely
next to surya, next to to tamas, and then subtract the times he's next to both
wait do we count the other two people in order
?
i think you can assume any time a person is in a different chair, it's different
then divide by 8 at the end
yea
so it doesnt matter if they switch
it does
well waht abt yk
hmm
14*5! for him to sit next to one person
You don't need to divide by 8 at the end if you just place Richard first btw
so 2 times that for adding both
oh ya thanks
||2*6*5*4*2 - 2*5*4||
yeah that's what i got
not sure how u got it
same
2*6*5*4 ways richard can sit next to surya
wait i dont get 2*5*4
2 because surya can sit either to his left or his right
oh ya
then there are 6 choices for where the third person sits, 5 for the fourth, and 4 for the last
my moms side quest im still in it
should've told u
5 mins
oh ok
back
oh
i understand
ima read the solution
ty everyone for helping me

I have this i am doing rewiew and i just want to make sure i have the right a k ,c and d values
i got a=1 k=2 c=2 and d=1 this is right
cause my freind got the c vaule is -2
i not sure how he got that
In the future, you should define what $a,k,c,d$ represent in general because this is not standard notation. \ \
Assuming you're working with a form of $a\sqrt{k(x-c)}+d$, then the correct answer is $a=1, k=2, c=-2, d=1$. If you're working with $a\sqrt{k(x+c)}+d$, then the correct answer is $a=1, k=2, c=2, d=1$.

Ok however I dont know what i am working with cause the questions is asking me decribe the transfomrations
in this case it would be vertical comprsss by 1/2 then 2 units left 1 uniit down right?
why is there a vertical compression
mhm
horizontal compression with a factor of 1/2
shift 2 units left
recheck your vertical translation
whichever form you pick is irrelevant
um
but what if you do the one with minus would you have a differnt answer
i get that it might be like (x-(-2))
no
I mean picking the x-c form is probably more intuitive since a positive c means a shift to the right and a negative c means a shift to the left
but it doesn't really matter
x+c would mean a positive c is a shift to the left and vice versa
but whatever form you pick, the function that you're given doesn't change
so ofc there's no way that the transformations can change either

@radiant walrus Has your question been resolved?
I'd let $AF=x$ and $HF=y$. See what side lengths you can fill in based on this and trig.

Oops sorry. Didn't read about your question.
You know A(t) and B(t), right?
take the difference and take the magnitude of it.
okay so
the position of A is
10t
well
broken into components i suppose
so i should find the cartesian form of both position functions
and then subtract em
is that right?
okay
Like $A(t) = (a\overrightarrow{x} + b\overrightarrow{y})t$

Or even employ a complex number, though that might be too advanced.

If AD = 1.5 metres, find the value of GC.
i asked this ques before but I did not, due to unavoidable circumstances, reply
what have you tried?
i have try to find af, fh, ae, gc, cd, but no success.
hmm you may not need those
try constructing line JE, such that J is a point on CD, and JE is perpendicular to CD
and solve the angles within the resulting figure
from there, you should be able to find CG
yep!

bearing?
It's like some angle thing
Given that those two sides are equal, what must angle CAB be?
You've confused that with CBA right
But sure, CBA = 66
Oh bruh
ac = bc
damn
Yeah how is the diagram wrong lmao
idk my teacher
CBA=CAB=66
Okay so the bearing from B: that's going to start from the north arrow above B
And that angle is going to go clockwise until it ends at segment BA
yes
Yeah, so can you figure out what to do to get the bearing?
please answer correctly. which one is right?
no
this
thats why im asking
lol
Well, you could take 90 minus angle BAC
And then that would be co-interior to the bearing
Yeah
oh
bruh
i got that but then i asked chatgpt
and chatgpt said its wrong
bruh chatgpt scam
!nogpt is here for a reason.

show your thought process
yep, law of cosines is the right appraoch
,w 10^2 = 10^2 + (6 sqrt 2)^2 - 2 * 10 * 6 sqrt(2) cos(x)
,w arccos(3/(5 sqrt2)) in degrees
you should try typing it out on your calculator again
if you rearrange it, you get $\cos x = \frac{10^2 + (6 \sqrt 2)^2 - 10^2}{2 \cdot 10 \cdot 6 \sqrt2}$
south
is your calculator in degrees (not radians)?
indeed, well don't round too early though

how??
I did this in the past..but don't remember why the answer is 3
a : b = c : d
looks like "sum of means is 5" means b+c=5
"ratio of two terms" is obscure and confusing though
why b+c =5
the middle numbers in a proportion are called the "means" and the two others are called the "extremes".
that's how i read it.
oh right
is there any use of
The sum of the squares of the four no. is 50
two terms .
a+b+c+d = 1+3
no?
a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2 = 50
i will be honest i have no idea what "ratio of two terms" means here.
ok

Hello great math fellows. I need some help regarding a question I have in inner products in linear algebra.
So we know that:
<a,b> = |a| |b| cos(t), and also:
<a,b> = (a_1)(b_1)+(a_2)(b_2) + ... + (a_n)(b_n)
My question is regarding the definition of the cos. From above we can find cos(t) as:
cos(t) = (<a,b>)/(|a| |b|)
Now what if we use another inner product? then the above statement still holds true?
And by defining/using the new inner product, did we just define a new geometry? Or this statement works only for standard inner product?
Thanks.
yes every inner product defines a new geometry
a different way to measure angles etc
different lengths
different things that are orthogonal
the cos(t) formula is a theorem using the euclidean inner product and a definition using other inner products
(we know that it is possible to define angles with that formula due to cauchy-schwarz)
@prisma cave Has your question been resolved?
Thanks you very much @desert mantle and @formal trail . Understoon. Much appreciated.
So generally for any two non-zero vectors a, and b, if <a,b>=0, then then angle between them will be pi/2 (by geometry of the inner product).
or -pi/2, yes

How do I know which angle is opposite to equal sides? I mean i actually in most casesis not able to identify which one angle will be considered oposite to the line?
!xy
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
do you mean angles in a triangle, or what
Yeah trinagles. Let me show you a example
In example 6 -
,rccw
You can see that <B and <C are two angles opposite to two equal sides as written in the solution
yeah, they are.
you should look at only triangle ABC and temporarily ignore everything else in the diagram.
angle B is opposite to side AC
and angle C is opposite to side AB

Hi
Can anyone help me study a few PDFs if they are free

Can I put PDFs herr
post snapshots
don't post files that could potentially be corrupted and cause a world of hurt
yeah I don't want my pc to mine bitcoin
How to check if they are corrupted
just post pics
Ok
antivirus, but people are wary of downloading random files online
Can we just most of time draw a bisector of angle
The side it will meet first should be opposite to it
Didn't understand
I mean u know the line drawn to bisect(divide angles into 2 equal parts) angles
Yeah, I know
U mean u want help with all these
damn talent search, what question that you need help
guys stop
I can only do one question?
1 at the time
Then extend that line it will meet a line of the polygon it will be opposite to it most probably tho I'm not sure
So 5 right? Do u know AM GM
Gonna ask you and Yuto to move to another channel since this is occupied by another user now
It guarantees that no y + 1/y be less that 2
x²+x+1= 0 what is x²+1/x
Huh I'm quitting that conversation
Cool cool
Ya I'm talking the same rn
the arithmetic mean-geometric mean inequality.
I don't know what that is
Which grade/standard?
9th
Oh that it was obvious i guess
Pls tell me
are u indian
So it guarantees that
a+b/2 >/= sqrt(ab)
since when do they teach am gm in grade 9
i mean geometric progression itself comes during 11th grade
What is the significance
Of ts
So now can be put x^2 and 1/x^2 in the variable a and b
This we'll get 1/x^2 + x^2 >/= 2
It means that it will be always greater or equal to 2
Where is 2 frm
Bro show ur work what have I told have u implemented
Bro in sqrt 1 will remain
From a+b /2. 2 will come to RHS
Oh ok
Bye going to have supper
So there is no option greater than 2
Minimum value is 2
I'm Indian btw
Ok 2 theb
Also u can use vieta
Sum of roots and product of roots too
Wtf is vieta
Sum and product of roots
sum and product of roots
hello there. i dint attempt your ques that you gave me, mb. will do it in a few upcoming days...
Never seen a paper with other language like that
$\alpha+\beta= \frac{-b}{a}$
Dhairya
$\alpha \beta=\frac{c}{a}$
Dhairya
Idk that
is that malayalam
Yess
damn almost didnt notice
huh
the roots of a quadatic equation $ax^{2}+bx+c=0$
Dhairya
the answer is -1
maybe you dont know it and might overdose you but ig it was necessary
What is the question btw
this?
theres a funny way to solve problems like this
if you have x^2 + 1/x^2 then you almost always need x + 1/x
😔 yes fr
x^2 is not even positive xD
How did it go to that
(x- 1/x)^2 +2
divide by x
What.
Dividing the LHS and RHS by x
My knowledge 🗑️
Ok let's do another
ngl my first look I crossed out the answer -1 cuz I thought it can't be negative
So you solved the question?
What if we divide the equation by x
yeah thats it
yeah that's what i did
i assume that's the question?
No the question continues with another question
what's the question?
okay which one
i just joined in this channel
It doesn't I just mean I needa study more
Then why isn't c the answer
is this the qeustion or what?
it's the answet
Yes
because im confused out here
Ohk let's go then
realize that $x^2 + x + 1 = 0$ has no solutions in reals
Ig u should open another channel for new question
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
It's been a long
Star how do you do it
can you find an obtuse triangle in there
wait wait
Idk
so look at this
Yeah
first off
what's the total angle of a pentagon?
there's this formula you can use: $180(n - 2)$ in degrees
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
360
where $n$ is the total of sides
I know that
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
well a pentagon has 5, not 4
it does not matter about the names
Alright pls continue
but you still needs to count the sides
it's kinda easy to consider what's the total angles in a triangle
Bro he is in 9th standard/grade
well uhm
now what's the total angles in a triangle
you see, the angles in a star basically are created from the angles from a pentagon and 5 triangles
so add the measurements you got and you got your answer
But
?
Only need the pointy angles sum
theres a really clever method
Pls share
Blurple W colour
ok i think i can put it this way
you can just angle chase, no?
well yeah that too
What's angle chase 😢😢🔥
wait
take a look at the angles next to the triangles
Hey there
We came to have SMTH like hit and trial
Assume angle to be 60° and add all of em is 300°
you know the red angle, so you can find the green angle, and hence the black angle 
and then you multiply everything by 5 
But I don't know the red angle
Well it's not a regular Pentagon though
The star is random here
no, i don't think he knows what those angles measured to
just a Pentagon
i can notice the 5 triangles are similar
It means it also includes symmetric star
you can notice the symmetry and try finding the angles in the pentagon
and there are vertically opposite angles
Note: they can be congruent in special case
the sum of the external angles is 360º
you'll get the sum

You wrote on paper for me? 🥹
i cant draw on texit you know
this means the sum of all the green angles is 360º
can you take it from here? 
yes, very
i dont think we know the red angle...
sum of all external angles of a polygon always sum up to 360
yes that's also what i did
i think i see how to do it now
that's much easier
yes, never mind that, I forgot it wasn't regular
In the exam I have 2 hours for 20 questions
also sorry its 108 * 5 here
wait
but we know the sum of the green angles
wait wait
let me sum up real quick
let's take this diagram for example
we know the sum of the green angles are 360
Yo this lowk getting overcomplicated
mark the other angle of the triangle as yellow
Can we choose one guy to do this or something
I vote for blurple
Same
I think this is the fastest way
I also vote for blurple
okie
Welp you're the judge
I shall leave then 
lel
Where is blurple thi
im here
do you get why its 180 - A - C though
yeah the obtuse one
if you add all you should get the sum of angles of a pentagon
which is (5 - 2) * 180
= 540
and can you find the sum in terms of the five angles now
what about each of the pentagon angles
two are already marked here
just say the other three
Ok so
Theres 180-A-C
Then there's 180-(e+b)
180-(b+d)
180-(e+c)
180-(b+d)
That's it
I think
you repeated one
Oh
I really think there's an easier way without variables
but I can show you after you finish
crct
add the numbers and variables together now
something interesting happens
180•5-(2(a+b+c+d+e))= 540?
correct
Oh I thought I missed
now its a matter of algebra
correct
Yaasy
yeah go on
this is more or less the same idea…but you can see that the green angles sum to 360º
Yeah
the red angles too
Yeah
Yo
so, the sum of the green and red angles is 360*2
Ok that's also right

For the first 4 and 6
That would mean an increase of the score by 10
And so the tens digit would increase by 1
So the only possible tens digit for the initial score is 7
you should write out what the digits look like on a 7-segment display
Yea
yeah i did this
so think about the first +4
the visible part of the score, and so of the last digit, is unchanged
which digit from {2, 3, 7}, when increased by 4, gives another digit from {2, 3, 7}?
did you retrace all the intermediate score readings
show your work for how you got 303
i got 307
the correct answer is 303
sorry, typo on my end.
i intended to type: show your work for how you got your answer
can i see it
yes, it was convoluted though so lemme try to explain it
is b correct? 297
initially the number is {2,3,7} {2,3,7} {2,3,7}. after the first 4, it didn't change, so we can deduce that the digit in the one's place is 7. after this, 6 is added, which means that {20, 30, 70} + 13 = {2, 3, 7} {8, 9, 0} {2, 3, 7} - the only possible combination for this is 70 + 13 = 83 which gives a valid number in both the tens and ones place. it didn't change until after the 3rd 6, so 83 + 4 + 6 = 93 is still {2,3,7} {8,9,0} {2,3,7}. adding the third 6 to this gives us 93 + 6 = 99 -> {2,3,7} {8,9,0} {8,9,0} which lines up. after the last 4 it goes to {200, 300, 700} + 103 = {2,3,7} {8,9,0} {2,3,7}. the only possibility of this is 200 + 103 = 303, so i just proved myself wrong nice
nope
this problem hurt my brain
and took way longer than it should

do it
yeah sure
Ann I need your gif stash
That's a very pretty calculator
Oh right I'm supposed to check your work
You've multiplied the fractions incorrectly
3* (7y/4) is not 21y/12
is it 21y/4
Yes
why?
you remembered how to multiply fractions?
and then do i do -8*4
yes
?
you multiply the numerator with the numerator
and multiply the denominator with the denominator
that's why it's 21y/4
so it should be $\frac{21y}{4} - 8y = 10$ right?
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
I recommend the latter
i recommend make the denominator the same
yes
then remove the denominator
so im left with 21y-32y=40?
and y = 40/-11
now substitute that into x
= -40/11, but sure
there are other ways to write fractions so i don't mind that
anyways
i don't think that's right
?
x is 7y/4
oh im sorry
Now you know y
my bad
So substitute it into x
Yes, x = -70/11
Yup you're right
i gotta fix my calculation asap
thanks guys
I just went along with you smh

Part(b)
I'm just confused
Did you try finding F(y) = P(Y <= y) first
NO, I had something else in mind
Y(x)=1/X(x)
the problem is this doesn't work everywhere does it
X doesn’t take x as in input
Your first step after this should be F(y) = P(1/X <= y)
By first principles you can go through the CDF
so I consider $\frac{1}{5} ≤y \frac{1}{3}$ , $\frac{1}{3}≤y≤1$, $y≥1$
wai
Use \geq or \leq
i guess to be more clear, i should say
$F_Y(y) \le P(1 / X \le y)$ because after some algebra, the right side will have $F_X$ in terms of some function of $y$
riemann
and then you'll plug in your result from a)
Equals
You wrote the cdf is le the probability
@vital crag
what ?
You wrote cdf \le P(…)
Yuh
Kind of stupid question, but formally how's a distbution defined
formally a distribution is a measure
also , I'm using all of statistics to self study, bad idea?
this was your answer?
yes
doesn't look right. your answer should have y in it
why, f_X(x) doesn't
What did you do after P(1 / X <= y)
the probability density function is the derivative of the the cumulative density function
yes, and f_X(x) is a PDF
i think you're underestimating how much calculation you need to do in this problem
After P(1 / X <= y) there's a few lines of algebra to arrive at F_X(1/y), especially with the three cases

yes this is what i got
you sure?
somehow i got $y=\int xe^{\beta x} dx$
Roy
❌
u dont know what integrating factor is?
then i dont think u can help much with this question
i mean ik everything until uni year 1
oh ur in uni
lemme search it up
no im 10th grade
bro
what was your integrating factor
yes
e^(ax)
okay that seems right, your integral seems fine too i think
now just multiply both sides by e^(-ax)
to isolate y
yeah okay and then?
then thats your f(x)
lemme read this article 2 min you guys talk until then
you have a +C right
yes
hm okay ill look
they dont all have an x^2?
are you sure the first and last options dont work
i havent really checked your work thoroughly or done this out
but i think its plausible those ones work
does it tell you how many should be correct
there's a special case when a+b=0
compute that one separately and you'll get a diff solution
did the problem say a+b cant be 0?
uh no
and a and b are arbitrary real numbers
so this case will absolutely correspond to functions in our set
ohh
ok that makes sense
yes i can see the x^2 term appearing now
thank u

$f_n$ is a sequence of functions that uniformly converge to $f$
lifelong dumbass
im stuck on d
ive been trying to construct counterexamples but no dice
oh wait
hang on
ok i think i figured out that if f_n has discontinuities at some point then f also has discontinuities at the same point (i think)
i dont really know how to move forward
My d
?
@still drum Has your question been resolved?
@still drum Has your question been resolved?
@still drum Has your question been resolved?
try to prove the contrapositive
which is like
if f has at least uncountable discontinuities, then some f_n has at least uncountable discontinuities
arent you doing d?
oh wait
sorry i misread
uh yes (i moved on after a while and forgot which one i asked help for sorry)
so
if f has more than M discontinuities, then some f_n has more than M discontinuities
=M but yes
ok
ok
oh this is a lot more straightforward
so like
ok
so like
for the discontinuities of f
they must necessarily be discontinuous for f_n forall n> N
continuity doesnt include 0<|x-x0|
oh right
ok
wait
hmm
oh right cause $x'$ cannot be equal to $x_ \lambda$ by definition
ok
lifelong dumbass
ur argument might be sus bc what im thinking of uses the normal triangle ineq
it should look very similar to the proof of fn cont => f cont
surely i can make epsilon arbitrarily small enough for it to work tho
because you know that f is discontinuous at $x_\lambda$
lifelong dumbass
so then there is some $\epsilon_0$ and $x'$ such that $x'$ is in every delta neighborhood of $x_\lambda$ and $|f(x_\lambda)-f(x')|>\epsilon_0$
lifelong dumbass
using normal triangle ineq the gist of the argument is $$\e<|f(x)-f(x')|\le|\dots|+|\dots|+|\dots|$$
ロケット・ジャンプ
im doing reverse triangle inequality
reverse might work but normal seems cleanest to me. itd take me a lot of energy to figure out and explain why, so ig a bit of faith is needed
mmm ok
i gave the gist above, so try fleshing it out
ill give it a shot
uhhh
yea i dont really see it
cause then how do you prove discontinuity at those pointws
oh wait
i misread what you put
wait
uhh
almost the same stuff basically i think
which basically means
f_n(x_lambda) and f_n(x') cannot get arbitrarily close
because its bounded below by ($\epsilon_\lambda$)
lifelong dumbass
thatt was much cleaner then whatever the fuck i came up with
