rare cradle
#

How would you justify this?

spiral hill
#

Hm, the order can only be less or equal, if not then the rest would not be 1 but bigger.

I think I’m way out on grasping the entire thing doe.

#

Thus it make sense?

rare cradle
#

$[a]^{\lambda(n)} = [1]$ by defnition

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

rare cradle
#

and the order of $[a]$, $\omega$, is the smallest positive integer st. $[a]^{\omega} = [1]$

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

rare cradle
#

because $\omega$ is the smallest such positive integer, it follows that $\lambda(n) \ge \omega$

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

rare cradle
#

$[a]^{\lambda(n)} = [1]$ AND $[a]^{\omega} = [1]$

spiral hill
#

and if ${\lambda(n)} = m then we for sure know that m divides ${\lambda(n)}

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

rare cradle
#

m is only used to define $\lambda(n)$

spiral hill
#

sorry ment $\omega$

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

#

Nordin

rare cradle
#

but that might not be true

#

say $\lambda(n) = q\omega + r$ where $0\le r < \omega$ and $0\le q$

soft zealotBOT
#

giannis_money

spiral hill
#

Ohh 😲

#

I think I kinda see it now

#

Then [a]^r = [a]^(lambda(n)-wq)

#

Trying to think this through a little while, maybe a can figure out the rest. otherwise I'll type here. thx!

spiral hill
#

Makes sense?

spiral hill
#

Thanks giannis!

WHy?

#

I can say sin0 + cos0 = 1

#

0 + 1 = 1

grand kiln
junior pebble
#

because it is not true for EVERY angle

#

it is only true for a couple of very specific angles, and then false for all of the infinitely many other ones

grand kiln
#

I misunderstood the question

#

JamesH is right

frail loom
#

I don't see what the answer is because all statements are true for some or all values of alpha

We are looking for a statement which is false for all alpha

did you look up the hardest problem on the internet or something

is this discrete math?

this is actually page 15 / 720 of the book ;-;

ye more specifically boolean algebra

negation is when you find a case that disproves it

worldly bane
#

If i want to rationalize a polynomial from the denominator how would i do it. Not sure what conjugate to use

worldly bane
#

for example

#

a/(sqrt(x^2+x-2))

#

would the conjugate be (x^2-x+2)/(x^2-x+2)

dry light
#

Just multiply by $\frac{\sqrt{x^2+x-2}}{\sqrt{x^2+x-2}}}$

worldly bane
#

doesnt it have to be the inverse

#

or whatever

dry light
#

Not really

#

Because you have a square root

#

You can easily get rid of it by multiplying it by a manipulation of the value 1

#

In this case, that

worldly bane
#

here is my actual question

#

i figure i need to move the radical to the top

dry light
#

Not really

worldly bane
#

or am i going about this in the wrong way

dry light
#

Set the denominator equal to 0

#

What values of x would make the denominator = 0?

worldly bane
#

denom >= 0 right?

#

or wait

#

cause the radical cant be negative

#

i guess one step at a time

dry light
#

Yeah take this one step at the time

#

f(x) is undefined whether the denominator = 0

#

So to find discontinuities, we need to set the denominator = 0

#

$(2x-3)\sqrt{x^2+x-2} = 0$

soft zealotBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

dry light
#

What is x?

worldly bane
#

im not sure whaat you mean by that since we arent given a value for x

dry light
#

Like

#

Find x

worldly bane
#

oh okay

#

gotcha

#

ill work it out

dry light
#

Okay I'm back

#

@worldly bane what did you get

#

I had to find a way to get wifi, being stuck in a brick building where the reception is literal dogshit

worldly bane
#

wait can i not just do 2x-3 =/ 0?

#

since it will multipy by the radical anyways

#

or does that violate some math law

dry light
#

Wdym by =/

worldly bane
#

not equal

dry light
#

≠?

worldly bane
#

yea

dry light
#

Yeah that violates

#

Well

#

Lemme think

#

If you're finding areas of domain, then yes, but if you're finding discontinuities (which is easier), then stick to =

worldly bane
#

man this question is confusing me

dry light
worldly bane
#

oh wait

#

you want me to set it =0?

#

not =/?

#

I been trying to do this for not equal to zero

#

didn't realize you said =

dry light
#

Yeah it's =

worldly bane
#

why =?

#

wouldnt it be not =

dry light
#

It's easier to find where the function is discontinuous

worldly bane
#

okay, makes sense

dry light
#

And then take those values out of the domain of all reals

#

Basically we're finding "restrictions"

worldly bane
#

that makes so much more sense

#

idk im still stuck

#

maybe ive been doing math for too long

#

been doing limits questions all day

#

and im stuck on a damn domain question

#

this is quite discouraging

#

might have to just take a break and come back with fresh eyes

dry light
#

Yeah take a break

#

If you've done a lot, take a break

#

Burnout makes you blind

#

Not like actually blind

#

But ya know

worldly bane
#

yea

#

ok, thank you for your helpo

#

im gonna eat and watch a yt vid then try again

whats the definition of a solvable group? i have one in my notes saying a finite group G is solvable if all its composition factors are cyclic of prime order. But i've seen another definition that says G is solvable if it has a subnormal series with abelian factors. these aren't equivalent are they?

okay, I'm really lost with this one:

i(x) = 3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx + c
i(x) / (x^2 - 5) = q(x) with remainder (12x -84)
q(1) = 18

find a, b and c all real numbers

gray vortex
#

$i(x) = 3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx + c \
i(x) / (x^2 - 5) = q(x) with remainder (12x -84) \
q(1) = 18$

Asagao 朝顔

sacred smelt
#

$i(x) = 3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx + c \
i(x) = q(x) (x^2 - 5) + (12x -84) \
q(1) = 18$

soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

gray vortex
#

think of what "i(x) / (x^2 - 5) = q(x) with remainder (12x -84)" implies

sacred smelt
#

i(x) = q(x) (x^2 - 5) + (12x -84) ?

gray vortex
#

ye

#

plug in 1

#

since you're given q(1)

sacred smelt
#

i(1) = 18 (1 - 5) + (12 - 84)
3+ a - 39 + b + c = -144
a+b+c = -108

#

dont know what to do now

#

$i(1) = 18 (1 - 5) + (12 - 84) \
3+ a - 39 + b + c = -144 \
a+b+c = -108$

vital crag
#

what is your question

vital crag
sacred smelt
#

i do not know what to do with that equation

#

I thought about replacing one of the variables in the original function in terms of the other ones but did not get anywhere

#

something like this
$i(x) = 3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx - a - b - 108$

soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

sacred smelt
#

and then
$$3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx - a - b - 108 = q(x) (x^2 - 5) + (12x -84)$$

soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

sacred smelt
#

but it lost me there

soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

vital crag
#

Write q(x) = r x^2 + s x + t

sacred smelt
#

general form?

#

what do I get from doing so?

vital crag
#

and you know q(x) because i(x) = q(x) * (x^2 -5) + (12x - 84)

sacred smelt
#

oh

#

so

#

$$3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx - a - b - 108 = q(x) (x^2 - 5) + (12x -84)$$
$$3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx - a - b - 108 - 12x + 84 = q(x) (x^2 - 5)$$
$$\frac{3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + bx - a - b - 108 - 12x + 84}{x^2 - 5} = q(x)$$
$$q(x)=\frac{3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + (b-12)x - a - b - 24}{x^2 - 5}$$

soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

sacred smelt
#

i feel really stupid

#

I feel like I am getting nowhere

vital crag
sacred smelt
#

but what would be the r, s and t values? or jus new variables

vital crag
#

they're unknowns that you can solve for

sacred smelt
#

I genuinely do not get what you are talking about

vital crag
#

which part

vital crag
soft zealotBOT
#

guillew

$$3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + (b-12)x - a - b - 24 = (r x^2 + s x + t) (x^2 - 5)$$
sacred smelt
#

what can I do with these 3 new unknowns?

vital crag
#

two polynomials are equal if and only if their coefficients are equal

sacred smelt
#

$$3x^4 + ax^3 - 39x^2 + (b-12)x - a - b - 24 = r x^4 - 5 r x^2 + s x^3 - 5 s x + t x^2 - 5 t$$

round otter
#

hi, could someone help me with this question? i seriously cant understand it

tired walrus
#

do you understand where the angle you're asked for is situated on the diagram?

round otter
#

okay so this is what i tried, so ik that angle of depression, you can take it to the opposite side of the adjacent line

#

therefore, i tried to find the lenght of d to b

#

and then use tan to find the lenght from c to d

#

but lenght of c to d was shorter than b to d

#

@tired walrus

tired walrus
#

okay so you did not answer my question at all, but

#

you somehow got that CD < BD? that's definitely wrong.

round otter
#

yeah

#

i just dont know how to find the angle of depression from d to b

#

like enough as it is to find DC, i dont know how to find an angle

tired walrus
#

well to find an angle it helps to know where on the picture it is

#

it's a little hard to notate here, but if we take a point somewhere on the horizontal dotted line right of D and call it E, then the angle of depression from D to B is angle EDB

#

do you understand this?

round otter
#

yep

#

its just the c i dont understand how to work with

tired walrus
#

C does not play a role at all here

#

angle EDB equals angle DBA (since AB and DE are parallel), and it should be clear that tan(DBA) = DA/AB = 168/126

round otter
#

how would i arithmetically prove that though,

#

wait i think i have to find the angle of d to its right most lenght

tired walrus
#

what do you mean by "arithmetically prove"

round otter
#

from d to outer most right to b

tired walrus
#

??

#

i don't understand you, sorry.

round otter
#

why is d-line extended outwards so much

#

it makes everthing so much more confusing

tired walrus
#

does it matter how far it's extended? it shouldn't.

#

do you understand this:

angle EDB equals angle DBA
yes or no?

round otter
#

oh yeah i suppose

tired walrus
#

there is no "i suppose", you either understand it or you don't.

round otter
#

E being the angle, EDB is what im trying to find, if EDB = DBA, then i dont understand for sure

tired walrus
#

please type the names of points as capital letters.

#

no, E isn't the angle. E is a point somewhere on the dotted line. the only reason why i'm introducing E is to give a name to the angle we want to find.

#

and you still haven't given a simple yes or no answer to my question

round otter
#

....no

tired walrus
#

could have said that at the beginning

#

okay, so let's roll back a bit.

#

DE and AB are parallel lines. do you understand this, yes or no?

round otter
#

yes

tired walrus
#

AB is a transversal line that cuts both DE and AB.
in doing so, it creates the pair of alternate interior angles EDB and DBA.

#

do you understand this, yes or no?

round otter
#

no

#

we havent learnt that, alternate interior angles

tired walrus
#

what do you call a pair of angles positioned like this?

round otter
#

i cant recall

plush cosmos
#

i remember that they are the same angle though

round otter
#

do you mean elevation and depression

plush cosmos
#

wait its alternate

tired walrus
#

no i don't mean elevation and depression

plush cosmos
#

elevation and depression is for trig no?

tired walrus
#

have you not learned these basics of geometry?

#

or did you just forget

round otter
#

nah i just forgot

#

im having to do a catch up course

tired walrus
#

either way, you have to somehow find out that angles positioned like this are equal

round otter
#

oh?

tired walrus
#

...yes?

#

there is not much to be said about it

round otter
tired walrus
#

you didn't need to be so polite in saying "thanks for explaining absolutely nothing, you slimy little mathematician fuck"

#

but you're welcome.

round otter
# tired walrus you didn't need to be so polite in saying "thanks for explaining absolutely noth...

I mean idk what you read, I was being honest, I'm sure you're correct and I'm just not being able to understand it, but I'm not accepting that solution because one, I haven't learned that during this course, so idk how sus its gonna look that I whip this out, and second, I simply just don't get it lol. I'm sure there's a very elementary way of solving it and I just cant figure it out right now

#

<@&286206848099549185> could someone help me figure out how to solve this question?

abstract gale
#

Ok so do you know about alternate interior angles?

#

If not we can go another approach

abstract gale
final saddleBOT
#

@round otter Has your question been resolved?

round otter
#

currently finding the tangent theta

abstract gale
#

Oh I see

#

Let me know if you got the answer

round otter
#

so angle ADB = 36.86

abstract gale
#

Yeah

#

So then you can subtract that from 90 to get your angle of depression

round otter
#

wow really?

abstract gale
#

Yep that’s it

round otter
#

if you dont mind me asking, how?

#

you dont have to, i wouldnt have to either

abstract gale
#

What do you mean by how?

round otter
#

but i just want to know how you simplified it from alternate interior angles to just find theta tangent and then subract 90 to find angle of depression

#

sorry my brain is just a jumbled mess

abstract gale
#

Oh there’s 2 ways that I know of to find the answer to this

#

I made a sketch

#

So the first way of alternate interior angles would be the red

#

Blue is what you just did

#

They are different methods but they end up at the same solution

round otter
#

oooooooohhhhh

#

gotcha thats fantastic

abstract gale
#

Nice job

round otter
#

thank you sm fr, my head was throbbing

#

appreciate it mate, have a good day

#

uh

#

what do i do with the fractional exponent

deft ravine
#

Firstly, you bring it on one side, and the ones with numbers as exponents on the other.

raw sluice
#

Yes so

#

You would slow 2 to the power of 12

vague loom
#

what does slowing a number mean tf

raw sluice
#

4096

deft ravine
#

You basically want to reach here 2^x = 2^x meaning you have an linear equation.

raw sluice
#

2^k/2 =4096/32

#

I am right right @deft ravine

tranquil pine
#

$\frac{a^b}{a^c}=a^{b-c}$

vague loom
soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

tranquil pine
#

First stuff u need for this

vague loom
#

YES BIG BRAIN TEXIT GUY

#

I LIKE THE PICTURE THING

tranquil pine
#

Second stuff

$a^b=a^c$
$\implies b=c$

soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

vague loom
#

yep

deft ravine
tranquil pine
#

So u have

$2^{12}÷2^{\frac{k}{2}}=32$

$\implies 2^{12-\frac{k}{2}}=32$

soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

tranquil pine
#

Try to convert 32 to base 2

vague loom
#

2 to the 5

tranquil pine
#

Yup

raw sluice
#

2^k/2 =128

deft ravine
#

Oh, that's even shorter than my solution

tranquil pine
#

$2^{12-\frac{k}{2}}=2^5$

soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

tranquil pine
#

$\implies 12-\frac{k}{2}=5$

soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

vague loom
#

wait huh

tranquil pine
#

Now u have a quite straightforward equation

vague loom
#

where did the 2 on the left side go

#

why did the right side transform into 5?

tranquil pine
vague loom
#

mb im not very good at this

tranquil pine
#

And use that rule

tranquil pine
raw sluice
#

Can I have some help 2

#

With this

vague loom
#

sorry doesnt quite click

#

mayb i need some more time on it

tranquil pine
tranquil pine
raw sluice
#

Two try my way

vague loom
tranquil pine
#

So u have

$2^{12}÷2^{\frac{k}{2}}=32$

$\implies 2^{12-\frac{k}{2}}=32$

$\implies 2^{12-\frac{k}{2}}=2^5$

$\implies 12-\frac{k}{2}=5$

soft zealotBOT
#

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

vague loom
raw sluice
#

Teo just think about as a normal equation after that

tranquil pine
vague loom
#

but its the first part

#

with the combine and all that ig

raw sluice
#

You done

tranquil pine
#

This help channel is occupied

raw sluice
#

But this person finished I think

vague loom
#

DUDE GO TO ANOTHER CHANNEL HOLY SMOKES U HAVE LITERALLY GHOSTED MY CHANNEL FOR SO LONG CAN U PLS GO AWAY

#

IM NOT BRUHHHHHHH

#

i would dot close it if i was

tranquil pine
#

The two rules which I mentioned before

vague loom
vague loom
tranquil pine
vague loom
tranquil pine
#

$\frac{a^b}{a^c}=a^{b-c}$
Second stuff

$a^b=a^c$
$\implies b=c$

r^2=x^2+y^2-2xycos

tranquil pine
#

I just write in one place

vague loom
#

i think its starting to make sense....

my question is

#

why do you reject one of them

#

its + and -

#

but you reject the -

#

what is the significance of the - result ??

#

i know its not equal to cos(2pi/5) cuz i typed it in and its diff

#

but whats the significance of it

feral dock
#

heello i need help

outer peak
#

,w cos(4pi/5)

outer peak
#

hmm so thats cos(4pi/5)

fresh musk
#

whats the significance of it

#

why does it appear in the equation

outer peak
#

because its also a root to z^5 = 1

fresh musk
#

oh yh i guess so

alright ig that makes sense, easier than i thought lol. thanks.

i thought you would multiply by i because 90 degree rotation but tahts not quite right

#

i cant quite tell what you do

silver dew
#

((2+3i)-(1-i))i +(1-i), ((2+3i)-(1-i))i +(2+3i) is a pair

#

-((2+3i)-(1-i))i +(1-i), -((2+3i)-(1-i))i +(2+3i ), is another pair

#

Because rotate -π/2 is multiplication by -i

fresh musk
weary wharf
#

Have you learned that if you multiply a complex by $e^{\frac{\pi}{2}i}$ then you will rotate that complex number anti clockwise by 90 degrees

soft zealotBOT
#

azeem321

fresh musk
#

thats just multiplying by -i

#

i thought it was i tbf, but ok its -i

#

wiat no

#

it is i

#

im being sleepy sorry

#

yh multiplying by i is 90 degree anti clockwise

#

multiplying these by i does not give the correct ans tho

weary wharf
#

So we have our square. We can find a complex number representing the line segment joining (1-i) to (2+3i) by doing 2+3i-(1-i) = 1+4i

fresh musk
#

oh your saying i should just do it with vectors?

weary wharf
#

kinda, yh like a vector approach

#

now we have the complex number representing that line segment

#

we can multiply it by exp(ipi/2)

#

and exp(-ipi/2)

fresh musk
#

so now your multiplying by -i

#

i can do it with vectors

#

via mostly inspection

#

but i dont really understand the maths behind it is my issue

#

if i was to get a different shape in an exam

#

normally i multiply by the angle but multiplying by i does not work here

#

probably due to different arguments

#

oh your saying you multiply the line segment by i

#

thats weird to think about

#

then u add it on?

#

basically by the way the reason for so many questions suddenly today - doing OCR A papers (my normal board is OCR B), so very different questions from what im used to but i mean they should mostly still be on spec.

weary wharf
#

If you multiply i, you get the top dotted line. if you multiply by -i you get the bottom dotted line. so this should result in 4 possible points if i am not mistaken

#

not sure why mark scheme only given 2

fresh musk
#

oh

#

yes

weary wharf
#

i was confused for a sec lol

#

So yeah

#

You rotate by both i,-i

#

You get the resulting line

#

and then u subtract of the 1-i term to get the point

#

Something that might be helpful, in general to rotate a complex number any angle $\theta$, you multiply by $\exp(i\theta)$

soft zealotBOT
#

azeem321

fresh musk
#

ah, yes that is

#

thank you 😄

weary wharf
#

do you understand this problem now

#

or

fresh musk
#

yes i get it

#

my mistake was multiplying the numbers themselves by i, but now i understand you multiply the vectors, then add or subtract the vectors from the points

#

thank you as always 🙏

have you tried (a) and (b)

#

i believe they help

fresh musk
#

i did

#

i realize its the same thing if you put 1/2pi - theta into it

#

if theta = pi/2 - theta

#

2theta = pi/2

#

theta = pi ?!?

#

no

#

thats incorrect

strong atlas
#

f(x) = f(π/2 - x)

fresh musk
#

oh

#

i did basic math wrong

#

what i was saying was correct, right?

#

you get pi/4 = theta

strong atlas
#

huh

#

do you know the definition for line of symmetry

fresh musk
#

same value of r for like +- the number?

strong atlas
#

if f(k - x) = f(k + x), x = k is a line of symmetry

#

consider the case for f(-x) = f(x), for example

#

f is even, f is also symmetric across the y-axis

#

what is

#

i know what sum(ab) is

#

sum(ab) is ab + bc + ca

#

but the squared

#

idk how that works

strong atlas
#

(ab)² + (bc)² + (ac)² + 2 (a²bc + ab²c + abc²) = (ab + bc + ac)²

#

consider this

fresh musk
#

but ab + bc + ac =

#

=-5/2

#

which is 25/4

#

which is not what they have?

strong atlas
#

??

fresh musk
#

ohhh

#

i need to subtract a bit

strong atlas
#

yes

fresh musk
#

subtract 2(a²bc + ab²c + abc²)

#

but thats really long, isn't it.

strong atlas
#

right

#

no

fresh musk
#

this is only 2 marks

strong atlas
#

it’s fairly simple

fresh musk
#

I have thought about it

#

Not got an idea yet

#

I'll continue staring at it

#

Only way I can think of involves working out the roots

strong atlas
#

(ab)² + (bc)² + (ac)² = (ab + bc + ac)² - 2abc (a + b + c)

#

you know the RHS

#

then done

fresh musk
#

omggg thats a mad1

how did i not think of that

2abc (a + b + c)

for a variation to be direct the relationship between the two factors should not be affected by any factor (i.e., mathematically the equation of the line should be y=mx). in this case there is an initial charge (cost=20, time=0), so the variation is not direct (i.e., the equation is y=mx+c).

What are two sets in R2 where the union of the two sets does not equal the sum of the two sets?
I'm having trouble with this
Like for example would the set contain the vector (1 0) and the set containg the vector (0 1) work
Cause the union is both the vectors in the set and the sum would be (1 1) right?

if $A={(1,0)}$ and $B={(0,1)}$, then $A+B={(1,1)}$ and $A\cup B={(1,0), (0,1)}$

burnt oxide
#

How do I get started with solving this?

final saddleBOT
final tangle
#

consider what happens when x=1

burnt oxide
#

But like I don’t see what I’m supposed to get out of it, y=kx+m or y=mx+b. Sure yeah, but like how?

tranquil flume
#

what is b in mx+b?

final tangle
#

consider what happens when x=1

burnt oxide
#

y = 8 when x = 1

final tangle
#

true
but not quite what i'm trying get you to do

#

look at the second equation you're given about your function

burnt oxide
#

Aha?

final tangle
#

sub x=1 into that

burnt oxide
#

So f(1+2) = f(1)+6 ?

final tangle
#

yes

#

and simplify that

burnt oxide
#

Wait can I remove the f(x) from both sides?

#

Nah i can’t can i

final tangle
#

not what i'm asking you to do

#

simplify, don't do other random stuff
don't overthink

burnt oxide
#

f(3) = f(1) + 6 huh?

final tangle
#

you were told the value of f(1)

#

use that and simplify further

burnt oxide
#

But how do I simplify it with the f(x), god this is so confusing

final tangle
#

don't overthink

#

f(1) = ?

burnt oxide
#

yeah 8?

final tangle
#

yes

burnt oxide
#

so 8 =

final tangle
#

and hence
f(3) = f(1) + 6 = ?

burnt oxide
#

f(3) = f(1) + 6 = 8

final tangle
#

no

#

f(1) is 8
f(1) + 6 is NOT 8 unless you're implying that 6 = 0

burnt oxide
#

Aha? But i don’t see, how do i get that to 3x + 5 ?

final tangle
#

don't jump ahead

burnt oxide
#

Alright step by step

final tangle
#

these were not supposed to be trick questions

#

and were supposed to take less than 30seconds to answer

burnt oxide
#

Yeah math teacher told us it was simple, i just dont get it

final tangle
#

f(1) = 8
hence
f(1) + 6 = ?

#

do NOT overthink this

burnt oxide
#

I’ve no clue

final tangle
#

do NOT overthink this

burnt oxide
#

Alr

#

14? Nah

final tangle
#

yes

#

its simply 14

burnt oxide
#

Oh

final tangle
#

f(1) + 6 is just 6 added to f(1)

#

which you know has a value of 8

#

so f(1) + 6 is just 8 + 6 which is 14

#

so f(3) = 14

#

and now you essentially have info about two points

#

and you can apply the two-point formula and/or otherwise to get your equation
and rearrange to the specified form

burnt oxide
#

Yeah and how do i do that now again, i take y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1

final tangle
#

that will get you the slope (which is part of the two point formula)
you could calculate the slope first separately and then apply the point-slope formula

burnt oxide
#

And how do i do that, haha i feel so dumb oml

final tangle
#

look up slope formula

#

point slope formula

#

and two point formula

burnt oxide
#

Yeah and what points do i put in the formula

final tangle
#

use

f(1) = 8
which you viewed as
y = 8 when x = 1
and
apply the same idea for
f(3) = f(1) + 6 = 8 + 6 = 14

#

m = 3

#

Cause 6/2?

final tangle
#

yes

burnt oxide
#

So now that I have that i can just put in like

#

8 = 3x + b

#

Or?

final tangle
#

not like that

#

you can't just sub in y=8 without doing anything else

#

y isn't always 8

#

when is y equal to 8

burnt oxide
#

no but if i take that point and just do 8=3x1+b

final tangle
#

is that supposed to be the variable x or multiplication symbol?

burnt oxide
#

multiplication

final tangle
#

don't use x for multiplication, especially not in the presence of x

burnt oxide
#

3*1 ?

final tangle
#

makes stuff confusing af

#

yes

burnt oxide
#

Haha so sorry

final tangle
#

that'd be more appropriate

burnt oxide
#

Aha, So let’s see

final tangle
#

you'd have to sub in both x and y values at the same time for the work to be valid

burnt oxide
#

Think I got it?

final tangle
#

the final line of your work would be
y = 3x+5

burnt oxide
#

Yeah alright then that’s it.

#

Thank you so much haha

#

How the fuck do you do this

sturdy cypress
#

there are two ways at least

#

what's your preferred way?

wind lava
#

Anyway

sturdy cypress
#

add up these 2

wind lava
#

How do you get the values for 5/17 and 11/17

sturdy cypress
#

hold on, first i give answer, then i check if it makes sense at all

grim badger
sturdy cypress
#

i was warned multiple times, believe me i know

grim badger
#

Then why are you giving out answers?

sturdy cypress
#

?

wind lava
#

@grim badger wdym, I need help

sturdy cypress
#

does the reason matter?

wind lava
#

Why can I not receive help @grim badger

grim badger
wind lava
#

Yes that’s what I need

#

I literally asked how he got the values

sturdy cypress
#

ok, yeah that's not the wrong answer

#

after you picked a math book, there are 17 books left, with 5 of them math

#

it's the same logic as 6/18

#

the key point is that picking two random books is picking one random book, and picking one again from the remaining books

wind lava
#

Ok

#

Got it

sturdy cypress
#

another way is combinatorial i guess you could call it

#

there are (18 choose 2) ways to pick two books, and (12 choose 2) + (6 choose 2) ways to fulfil the requirement

wind lava
sturdy cypress
#

they are equally probable

wind lava
#

Ok can you also show how to do these two

#

Since they are similar

sturdy cypress
#

they are harder

wind lava
#

Do you know how to solve them

sturdy cypress
#

yeah, the first one I would solve with that combinatorial thing

#

count how many total ways there are to distribute prizes

#

there are 29 people, choose 3 to receive a prize

#

= 3654

#

then add up 4 types of outcomes where it's the same subject

wind lava
sturdy cypress
#

it's totally similar to the books, you were right :)

#

calculator

#

e.g. google

#

it's 29×28×27/6 if you wanted to do it manually

#

n×(n-1)×(n-2)
3 terms total
divided by 3!

wind lava
#

Ok

#

What next then

sturdy cypress
#

after you added up the outcomes that are "good" you just divide good by total

#

that's the final result

wind lava
#

So total outcomes is 3654

sturdy cypress
#

and there are 4 kinds of good

#

7 choose 3 outcomes where it's all math etc.

wind lava
#

How do you get all the good outcomes

sturdy cypress
#

we're counting how many ways 3 teachers of the same subject can receive the prize

#

it could be 3 math teachers, then it's (7 choose 3) ways, it could be 3 science then (10 choose 3), we don't care which subject all these outcomes are good

#

so we add them up

wind lava
#

How do you get 10 choose 3 and 7 choose 3

sturdy cypress
#

i'm sorry what do you mean

wind lava
#

Wait wait

#

I get it now

#

Finally I understand

#

Thanks

#

So much

wooden veldt
#

If $\sin{A} + \cos{2A} = \frac{1}{2}$ and $\cos{A} + \sin{2A} = \frac{1}{3}$, find the value of $\sin{3A} \newline$ $\sin{A} + 1 - 2sin^{2}{A} = \frac{1}{2}$ solving for sin A, I get $\frac{1 ± \sqrt{5}}{4}$. I understand I have to consider the second equation as well but $\sin{3A} = 3\sin{A} - 4\sin^{3}{A}$, substituting both the values regardless, I get irrational numbers but the answer key states a rational number; where did I go wrong?

#

Pour half into 5 gallon jug and you now have 4 gallons

#

And pour the rest into 3 gallon jug to ensure that you still have an acceptable amount (1 gallon) still in the 8 gallon jug

final tangle
#

Pour half into 5 gallon jug and you now have 4 gallons
it is implied that you would be unable to get 4 gallons like that

shell orchid
#

Oh shoot u right

#

So fill 3 gallon then pour half of the remaining water in the 8 gallon into the 5 gallon (2.5 gallons) and pour half of the 3 gallon into the 5 gallon making 4 gallons

final tangle
#

it is implied that you can pour out half the contents like that

#

you can either fill the jug or empty a jug

#

you can't pour exactly 2.5 gallons out of the jug just like how you can't pour out 4 gallons out of the jug

#

assume the jugs are irregular with no markings

shell orchid
#

Hmmmm

final tangle
#

and all you know is the max capacity

shell orchid
#

Now I am thinking of filling the 3 gal jug then pouring it into the 5 gallon one

#

Then refilling the 3 gal so you have 3 by 3 by 2 gals

#

But I can’t find a way to make it 4 gals

final tangle
#

consider what you can do with the
5 gall jug that has 3 gall
and the
3 gall jug that's full

shell orchid
#

Ohhhhhhhhhh

#

Pour the 3 gallon into the 5 gallon until it is full, resulting in 1 gallon then pour the 1 gallon back into the 8 gallon to make 4 gallons

#

Correct?

final tangle
#

close but no

shell orchid
#

Oh

#

Hmmmm

final tangle
#

note that the 8gall jug had 2 galls at that point

shell orchid
#

Ahh ur right

final tangle
#

pouring 1 gall back into that would get you 3 gals

#

defeating the purpose of what you just did

shell orchid
#

So instead you pour 5 gallons back into 8 gallons then transfer 1 gallon to 5 gallon bucket and after that filling the 3 gallon back up again and combining in the 5 gallon bucket

#

4 gals

final tangle
#

yes

shell orchid
#

Ahhhh kk thx. Do you have any tips on getting a proof started?

final tangle
#

that's the proof

#

proof by example

#

you successfully showed a (legitimate) way to do it and you're done

shell orchid
#

But in general how do you know what to start with
