At this point:
- we know
f'(d) != 0for alldwithd != cin(a, b) - we want to show
f(d) = 0for somedin either(a, c)or(c, b)
because those contradict.
we need c and d to be unequal zeroes in (a, b)
rolle's is what says a zero d exists
wait where are you getting all of theses? I thought all we knew was that f(c) = f(d) = 0 and f'(x) = 0
please dont delete modpings
(please don't delete modpings
)
okay
we know f(c) = 0 and f'(-1) = f'(1) = 0 and f'(x) != 0 on (-1, 1)
we know a distinct zero is either in (-1, c) or (c, 1) (prove it)
Case (-1, c):
We can use rolle's because f(-1) = f(c) and f'(x) != 0 on (-1, c). So there exists d with f'(d) = 0 in (-1, 1) (contradiction)
Case (c, 1):
We can use rolle's because f(c) = f(1) and f'(x) != 0 on (c, 1). So there exists d with f'(d) = 0 in (-1, 1) (contradiction)
so d is in (c,1)
I dont' see how f'(x) != on (-1,c) is relelvant. from the fact that f(-1) = c we have (c,c) and c!= d meaning d is in (c,1)
it's what rolles would contradict
wdym?
that we have at least one f'(c) = 0
And we already know there are none.
We know there are none, we conclude there is one.... contradiction!
We know "no zeroes in (-1, 1)" but rolle's says "must be one in both parts above and below c"
for this one isn't your interval nothing since it is (-1,-1)?
well c is never -1 so that can't be one of the intervals considered
I'm realizing you don't need to consider both halves.
It is possible to prove both of them contain zeros.
Showing either leads to contradiction.
You can work it this way:
We know f'(-1) = f'(1) = 0 and f'(x) != 0 on (-1, 1) for all x.
Suppose f(c) = 0 for some c in (-1, 1).
We can use Rolle's on (-1, c) because f(-1) = f(c). So there exists some zero ||(some d with f'(d) = 0)|| in (-1, c), and hence in (-1, 1), contradicting f'(x) != 0 on (-1, 1) for all x.
That's it.
where are we getting f'(x) != on (-1,1)? Wouldn't that mean that (c,d) is a subset of (-1,1)
Well that's something to prove separately from the givens.
You differentiate and + b drops out and then you can show the inequality directly.
(-1, c) and (c, 1) are in (-1, 1) because c is in (-1, 1)
(c, d) isn't an interval you need to consider
how so? we create our rolle condition from the fact that f(c) = f(d) so f'(-1)=f'(1)=0 on (c,d)
from rolle defintion
Suppose f(c) = 0 for some c in (-1, 1).
We can use Rolle's on (-1, c) because f(-1) = f(c).
The rolle conditions are on the interval (-1, c).
We don't have d yet because rolle will give it to us
ok let me look at your stuff again then
you should try to follow that closely because i think i captured exactly the proof rafilouyear2026 was recommending
ok let me ask you about this again. We are using rolle on c and -1. meaning f'(x) = 0 on (-1,c) but we know that f'(x) = 0 only at -1 and 1
which is a contradiction. I don't see how you bring d there though
d is the zero that rolle gives
rolle says "some zero exists" and i named it so i can say f(d) = 0
There I spoilered a part to clarify
but for our proof I thought we were using -1 and 1 and then c to get contradictions
Yes, after we assume some c has f(c) = 0 our task is to obtain a contradiction with f'(x) != 0 in (-1, 1).
||We obtain d having f(d) = 0 in (-1, c) for that contradiction||
ok so you are saying that f(d) = 0 in (-1,c ) and (c,1) but those both lead to the fact that f'(x) = 0 in (-1,c) and (c,1) but we know f'(-1) = f'(1) =0
I don't see how we make the expansion to (-1,1) for both
well
if there's a zero in (-1, c) then there's a zero in (-1, 1)
that's because (-1, c) is a subset of (-1, 1)

can someone give me a clue on how to start this question?
uhhh i am not sure since i have done much probability but i presume we let P(A and B) = x/(x+13) and the others similarly?
nvm
that would lead to x+2 = x+13 ☠️
im lowk confused where u get that
x+13 is the total number right
but isnt P (A and B) in a mutally exclusive just P(A) X P(B)
a) i am stupid, i applied demorgans wrong hence i got this
hm its okay i suck at probability as well
and b) in a mutually exclusive P(A and B) = 0
ohhhhh
then why is it telling me to find x
is part A just x=0?
and it indeed this is correct for independent events
yes i meant indepedent event for that
i mean yes as per my understanding
okay so for part b where do we start
well can you tell me the probabilities you are given? (in terms of x)
ye
we are given x equally likely outcomes in the left,top box
yes
meaning that for the event A and B, we x outcomes
and total outcomes are x+13 (from the table)
yes
so by definition P(A and B) =?
x / x+13
yesh
brackets
now can you relate P(A and B) and P(A' and B')?
what
uh
they just mean u forgot brackets around x+13 in the fraction
ann can u delete thatt the greens giving me a stroke
anyhow
how do we relate them
done, my bad
well i am sure you're familiar with de morgans laws?
its okay, ty
this is peak btw
thanks
get this sh pinned 
um ive done a few
but i forgot
it was
P (A | B) = P (B AND A) / P (B)?
no thats conditional probability
these are the set versions of demorgans laws
its ok
can u try and relate P(A or B) and P(A' and B') from here?
also draw a venn diagram if u find it difficult to make sense of why its true
typo 😅
P(A′ AND B′) = P (A AND B)′ =1 − P(A OR B)
good now do u know a formula for P(A OR B)?
or
ye
P(A) + P(B) -right beacuse its mutually excluse
or do we still need the P(A and B)
we r doing part b .?
part A is kinda obvious from x=0
P(A) + P(B) - P(A) X P (B)
but yes they both have the same formula but different equations
correct so P(A' and B') = (1-P(A)) * (1-P(B))
is that times
yes
oh yes
the standard for multiplication is * and you should use that rather than x or X in plain text
okay
ok so now we have two equations:
P(A and B) = p(A)*p(B) = x/(x+13)
P(A' and B') = (1-p(A)) * (1-p(B)) = 2/(x+13)
BUT we have 3 unknowns so we need one more equation
hmmm yes
guh discord ate my asterisks
anyhow
now i want u to visualise what the sets A' and B, A and B' look like using venn diagrams
hmmmm
so that you can write the formulae for P(A' and B), P(A and B') on ur own
either P(A' and B) or P(A and B') does not matter
yess
now u have 3 variables namely P(A), P(B) and x
and 3 equations (technically 4)
solve :))
since this is a question from a book, data is set in such a way that it doesnt matter if the 3rd equation is made using P(A' and B) or P(A and B')
x= 15
hmmi see
okay let me check answer
if its wrong i will be real sad >_<
yessss x is 15
a is 0 and b is 15
ty for ur help
i am going to further do the questions and hopefully finish this entire chapter

A dust-free powder box in the form of a rectangular box can hold enough 10 cylindrical powders (arranged as shown in the illustration below). Know that each chalk has a bottom diameter of 1 cm, a length of 8 cm. What percentage of the box is the volume of 10 chalks? (Consider that the thickness of the box is insignificant)
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
1
Let’s try something simpler
Let’s do a box with 1 chalk in it
How might you solve that problem?
And also pretend we’re in 2d
So it’s just a square with a circle inside of it
What percent of the area of the square is covered by the circle?
Find the volume of 1 chalk?
i think we should only focus on the volume of the chalks first
as we already have the measures of it
and for the rectangular box, we don't have a measure yet
I found the volume of a chalk: it is equal to 2π
2π x 10 = 20π
🔥
now we want to find the measures of this box
for the height, we can use the height of the chalk as a reference
and for the width and height, we can use the diameters of the chalks as a reference
Ok
hi everyone
!redir
This channel is only for on-topic discussion. Please take casual conversation to #discussion or #chill.
okay thanks
The length of the box is: 5 x bottom diameter = 5 x 1 = 5 cm
The width of the box is: 2 x bottom diameter = 2 x 1 = 2 cm
The height of the box is the height of the chalk = 8 cm
Is that true?
hell yeah
well that was an easy question
in that question we have to find the volume of a single chalk piece and then multiply it by 10, taking that number as x
we can proceed further
Ok
find the volume of the box and divide 'x' by the volume of the box.
finally multiply it by 100 to turn it into percentage
The volume of single chalk is 2π
The volume of 10 chalk is 20π
well ik my explanation is not good, i really suggest checking another channels for help..
Oh I understand
Thanks for help

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
my bad
let the master handle thin then
proceed
uhm
Oh wait a min
In the question, let π = 3,14
So that means
Volume of 1 chalk is 6,28 cm^3
Volume of 10 chalk is 62,8 cm^3
Volume of box is 80 cm^3
So, my answer is 78,5%
great job
to make things easier, make the equation simplified and then put value of pi.
Remember that u can’t show me ur answer
Really?
wait am i not allowed to tell teh answer either?
Yeah
ik
I’m new too
I came here with direct guidance from my friend
By the way, should I ping more people?
well if your question is solved then no need to do it but if your answer remains unsolved then you can ping "helper" once in 15 minute
Oh
Why hasn't the bot asked me if I've solved it yet?
Like this #help-14 message

I have a DMS problem but no D do I just put 0 in its place ?
like this 0d, 5m, 20s ?
i mean, yeah
it's less than a full degree innit
however keep in mind
5 minutes and 20 seconds here is time not angle
it's not 0°5'20" at all but rather 00h 05min 20s
fym you never learned that
do you not know how clocks work
and how like timekeeping works
no way you remained ignorant of that
no we got digital now I just ask chatgpt for the time
Please do not trust ChatGPT or similar AI tools for mathematical tasks, as they often generate output which "sounds correct" but has numerous factual or logical errors. Use of these AI tools to answer other people's help questions is strictly against server rules (see #rules).
but also this is not even about analog clocks
surely you did know what a minute (of time) and second (of time) is??
yes of course lol
I just don't know what you mean by its not 0°5'20" but 00h 05min 20s
like I understand what your saying I just don't know how that changes the problem
when i said 0°5'20", i meant angle
like: zero degrees, five minutes of arc and twenty seconds of arc
what i was saying is that the problem DOESN'T give you any minutes or seconds of arc
no arcs only time
do you understand me or not
if not, what's your native language?

How do you set this up?
hi, how do you set this up?
some of the channels need to be reset, they are all full yet some are hours old
I have the function f(x) = x² + 50xlogx + 200logx
x² is the fastest growing term in this function, and I would therefore like to prove that f(x) = O(x²).
When I plot the function in Desmos, I found that the function g(x) = 15x² intersects with f at x = 8 (to be safe)
This gives me the witnesses C = 15 and k = 6. However f(x) ! >= g(x) for x > 8 and I can't figure out why? f and g never cross each other again as x approaches infinity (atleast i think, not sure...)

Man what am i even looking at (i need help with Q9, 10 and 11)
wait is q 11 clear enough
nop
when in doubt, use the definition of the mean
sum(i=1 to n) x_i / n
the mean is sum by count
so if you want the common mean of x and y
then find the sum of x and sum of y
this will be (x mean) * n + (y mean)*n
now that you have the total, divide by count = 2n
so you get 0.5 ((x mean) + (y mean))
answer is B
you can use a similar process for the others
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
you're kinda encroaching on that territory there @safe kayak
Why would the total count be
Ok no wait I got it
What about q11? I feel like I can do q10 by myself now
What even am I looking at for q 11 😭
So
The no of observations would be the sum of n from 1 to n.
Then sum of the numbers if their mean is n_1 would be (n_1)(x_1)
yeah
From i = 1 to n?
yes

for this q does anyone get y = -1/13, x = 73/12
x = 73/12? you're sure? @stable viper
13 sorry
you can verify your sols with wolframalpha or sth like that
wth how did u solve that that fast
,w (73/13 - 1/13 i)*(3 + 2i)
real part seems to be wrong
can you show your work for how you got your values? @stable viper
hmm. you haven't learned how to divide complex numbers?
it might make your life a lot easier than trying to solve this as a real system
that said i see the issue
hm
33 - 9y - 4y = -32 gives -13y = -65 and not -13y = 1.
you made a sign error
-32 - 33 = -65 not 1
$x+yi = \frac{-16+11i}{3+2i}$
Ann
achieved from your original equation in one step
i literally just divided both sides by (3+2i).
wait
ok
so to do this do i
multiply by the complex conjugate
from what im reading
you work out the complex number division the same way you'd work out any other complex number division, and yes it involves multiplying the top and bottom by the complex conjugate of the bottom.

I need help working out understanding some hexagonigal graph map. Context is that I am trying to code catan as a personal project but I cannot figure out how to setup the grid for verticies and edges. The math for going between hexes and positions has been coded using the Cubic coordinates (this includes all the information for the axial system). But what I cannot figure out is the math for the edges and nodes. I am using this site for the math:
https://www.redblobgames.com/grids/parts/#hexagon-relationships
i am going crazy
This is the cordinates for the map, in the form q,r,s
And this is how the cordinates change in each given direction

hello is this right what do i do from here
the formatting is poor
it looks like you're trying to solve the quadratic 2x^2 - 10x + 5 = 0 by completing the square, yes?
idk if its right and how to carry on
so one thing i'll say is that you should prefer to work with fractions over decimals in this sort of question. not in a "decimals are wrong" way, but in a "this makes your life easier" way.
anyway, ok, i checked your arithmetic, everything checks out
2(x - 5/2)^2 = 15/2 so far is correct
then what do i do
if the (x - 5/2)^2 were replaced with a single letter would you know what to do
If your goal is to solve the equation then note that the equation
2(x - 5/2)^2 = 15/2
is easily solvable
so far is right?
then i just bring the 2 to the other side so 7.5/2?
yess excellent
like this
if i do tht then i wont get /2
which the answer asks for

What's a "partition" of R
a partition of any set is a collection of non-empty subsets, such that their union equals the set itself, and any intersection between any two or more sets is empty.
Okay I suppose I understand it a bit
So it's like breaking the set into disjoint non empty subsets
So what's up with that search problem there
yes, exactly so.
unfortunately I don't understand enough of what is written here to answer the question, sorry.
but I hope someone can build off the definition of a partition to help you with that.
Okay thanks for the help!

This working out correct?
yes
correct.
what if i used 2n+1 and 2m+1
expand each of them to get 4nm+2n+2m+1
factorise to get 2(2nm+n+m)+1
still even cause 2(2nm+n+m)+1
that still acceptable as an answer?
those would not necessarily be consecutive
what you already have is fine
did op switch to a different problem without telling anyone
idts
got it from some video
please show the video.
oh wait nvm

my suggestion is just extra wording to "properly" introduce the relevant quantities
because what you did was to prove that the product of two odd integers is odd.
key word here is WORDING.
i thought the part he was talking about had the word consecutive
proofs, by and large, involve words. and they read like English prose.
turns out it didnt
if it is allowed, I can show OP a sample wording of the proof in his original question.
yeah, that is a whole other problem entirely, OP.
i misread and thought consecutive was in the question
so consecutive would be like n+1,n+2 or like m+1,m+2
consecutive integers differ by 1.
here is something else that you should know
which is quite obvious to the point of absurdity
when writing a proof, you should know the thing you are proving
you should also make it clear to whoever's helping what problem youre working on
i dont read properly
always* know
i need to relearn reading
looks like you switched to a new one without telling us

hello this is the markscheme answer im confused ho they got the green triangle
Mb
can you uncrop so we see 100% of the page
including the question numbers
i want to see the ENTIRE page, and i don't want you to try and be clever in following my instructions.
but if you wish to know why
i want to see if there is like a part b to this question that your green triangle would relate to
then the green-highlighted triangle shall remain unexplained.
it's a reflection of B in the line x=0
it's not a reflection in y=x of anything else that's drawn
i think, purely by intuition, that to get C directly from A, we can rotate A 90deg clockwise
it about the point (1.5, 1.5)
@brazen stump what do you think?
im not sure
hmm
i know it is correct but idk how to formally proove it. wait ill try
which it is
wait wait wait
so i can say reflection in the line y=x?
yeah you can
i see now why i was confused
cause rotating A about (1.5, 1.5) 90deg clockwise looks very similar to reflecting A about line y=x
see dotted triangle is rotation of A 90deg clockwise about (1.5, 1.5) and C is rotation about x=y
yes, y=x is correct

Hi, I'm unsure on how this question is solved, part ii to be specific.
can you solve it for n=4?
did you use the "standard results for ... and ..." ?
you should
use sum(a - b + c +d) = sum(a) - sum(b) + sum(c) + sum(d)
a = r^2, b = 2r, c = 2n, d = 1
but for that, r must be 1 right?
and would sum(c) be 2 * sigma 1
nvm ive got it

When the polynomial has real coefficients then complex roots appear in conjugate pairs
aka Complex Conjugate Root Theorem
hence the brackets, the algebra is obvious, I guess?
yh second step we are expanding
i dont know why they've written it like this
<@&286206848099549185>
It's because you're told r1 and r2 are roots
Any quadratic can be factored into a(z-root1)(z-root2) by fundamental theorem of algebra
Here a=1
This is a trig problem
3-3i is equivalent to (3,-3) in Cartesian plane. Do you know what angle (3,-3) makes with the x axis
tan^-1(-3/3)
Did you know that yourself or did you use the solution
Another typo maybe?
Yeah, I mean here it's correct
But over there I think they did the opposite quotient
And I think it also should be -13/12 pi, since -3/4pi - 1/3pi is -13/12pi
or 11pi/12 after adding 2pi
cos(-x) = cos(x) and sin(-x) = -sin(x)
If you're talking about this step
does anyone know this to make sure i got it right
!occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
im talking about the second step
i.e. how does cos(-θ) + jsin(-θ) become cos(θ) - jsin(θ)?
cos(-x) = cos(x) and sin(-x) = -sin(x)
Basic properties of even and odd functions
cos(x) is even (symmetric about the Y axis), so for every x we must have cos(x) = cos(-x)
sin(x) is symmetric about the origin

what is this in cis form?
i got 2 sqrt 2 cis -pi/6
what abt this?
,w sqrt(6) - sqrt(2)i == 2 * sqrt(2) cis(-pi/6)
ohh ok thx
use cis = cos + i * sin
so for a i just do 2 cos3pi/4 + 2sin3pi/4 i
thats fastest method?
fastest would be to use a calculator

Eh it feels like something you should be able to do in your head since the $1-\sqrt{3}-2$ triangle is "nice" depending on how much experience you have. Perhaps the person writing solutions got a bit lazy lol.

and/or you've seen this exact representation before because it's so "nice"

Need help i am stuck in this
i'd suggest you to define
initial income as x,
final income as y (if you need to define this)
then express new peecentage savings in terms of new income and new expenses
might be nice to see your attempts first though, since being stuck implies you had an attempt or an idea.
i think one variable is enough
should be for most people
Let x = income
sure. what's next?
also, might wanna clarify, initial or final income?
because you have two different income values here. you should make it clear.
let it be the initial income. everything can be defined in terms of the initial income
you might get better mileage by letting x be the initial income instead.
yeah that's the original expenses

im not sure if its right
Is the answer theta equals to pi/2 ?
,,\begin{align*} \sin^2\sec(\th)&= \tan(\th) \ \sin^2(\th)&= \sin(\th) \text{ but} , \sin(\th) \neq 0 , \therefore \th \neq 0^{\circ}, 180^{\circ} \ \sin(\th) &= 1 \ \th &= 90^{\circ} \end{align*}
oh it goes to the left
right?
1.732050807568877293527446341505
well, I hope you can also spot the clear trivial solution, sin theta = 0, coz I see that you ignored that part when cancelling it from both sides, but it still is a solution nonetheless
@sacred night Has your question been resolved?
if it equals 0 then the eq is undefined
wait how can i do yhis
i showed a
but idk how to do b
if it equals zero then the sin theta cannot be cancelled out
but isnt it domain
if it does equal zero then the equation is already true
0=0 is a valid equality
so it would be an answer
however, it does mean that you cant cancel sinx in an attempt to find further solutions
