That should be 5, not 6, right?

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Oh, okay, right, I just meant the direction vector

#

Even if you shift the line up by one, the direction vector would still be (10,-5)

#

Because the bottom point would also move up one

#

But does it make sense to just talk about the direction vector (10,-5) as being parallel to the given line?

#

Because we still want to use a point on the original line

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

A vector just has a direction and length

#

To say a vector is parallel to a line, just means that it's in the same direction

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Actually, forget about the word 'parallel'

#

Do you agree that (10,-5) is a valid direction vector for the given line?

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Then, any vector with the same direction will work too

#

We have (10,-5) but we want (___, -1)

#

So we need a vector in the same direction, but 1/5 the length

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Right, (2, -1) is the same direction as (10, -5)

Why +4?

#

Yes, divide the whole thing, we just care about the direction

wraith hinge

inland orbit
#

Oh, no, we're scaling it down, that's multiplication, not addition

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Nothing meaningful, as far as I know

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Multiplying works because

#

$t_1(10, -5) = t_2(2, -1)$

solid kilnBOT
#

tatpoj

inland orbit
#

We just have to adjust one t-value to the other

#

So you have five choices, any or all of them could be correct

#

For the first one, you have to figure out if

$t \begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 0 \ 2 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 0 \ 1 \ 0 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -1 \ 0 \ 2 \end{bmatrix}$

for any values of $t$.

#

So you just wrote a system of three equations

#

Does it have a solution?

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

A solution means a value of t that makes all the equations true at the same time

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Are you sure?

#

I think that only makes the bottom equation true

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

It doesn't work for the top one

#

And notice that the middle equation is never true

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Yeah, I mean, you're looking for a value of t that makes x = (-1, 0, -2) satisfy the equation

#

So for the middle element, you need 0t+1

#

That's always 1, for any t

wraith hinge
#

One message removed from a suspended account.

inland orbit
#

Yeah, you can do that

#

If there's a solution for t (for all three equations), then it's on the line

#

If there isn't, then it's not

What is N(.) ?

digital bison
#

oh, the null space?

#

no, that's the other direction.
Start with Nul(A-B) = R^n,
Prove that A=B

#

so that means (A-B)x = 0 for any x in R^n

#

sure

#

yep

#

you can't divide by a vector

#

vectors don't have inverses

#

well... maybe they sort of do

#

you want I though

#

You could put 1/(x entries) on the diagonal

#

assuming no entries of x are 0

#

(which you can assume since the equality holds for all x in R^n, so just pick an x with no 0 entries)

#

so, like

#

,w solve{{x,y}}^T{{1/x,1/y}}

#

oh wait. nope. can't multiply those....

digital bison
#

yeah. ok.
New plan.

#

Ax=Bx for all x in R^n
Including elementary vectors like e_1, e_2, ....
What happens if you take Ae_1 = Be_1

#

column, but yeah.
And vectors are equal only if their entries are equal

#

yeah, I have to stop and think about it all the time haha

I have two similar arbitrary signals coming in, one is offset from the other. How can I iteratively recover this offset? Note the phase between the signals can change slowly, and the two signals aren't perfectly identical.

Some mock code, I want the magic phase update method:

import random

def random_walk(start, n):
  result = [start]
  for _ in range(n):
    result.append(result[-1] + random.random())
  return result

offset = 20
sig_a = random_walk(0, 200)
sig_b = sig_a[offset:]
extra = random_walk(sig_a[-1], offset)
sig_b.extend(extra)

magic_phase_state = MagicPhaseState()
ts = [x * 0.3 for x, _ in enumerate(sig_a)]
for a, b, t in zip(sig_a, sig_b, ts):
  magic_phase_state = magic_phase_update(magic_phase_state, a, b, t)
  print(f'Phase difference is {magic_phase_state.phase}')

Here I'd expect it to start printing a phase difference of ~6s after 20+ samples

snow ocean
#

hi, one last question. how would you start to solve this?

agile grail
terse pivot
snow ocean
#

im just not too sure how to factor it as a whole

heady cradle
#

imagine you have to simplify something like:
(2^x + 2^(x+1))

#

how would you do it?

#

hint: try dividing both parts by 2^x

snow ocean
#

mmm I see, but when you divide both parts by 2^x you end up with 2^x(1+1), no?

#

or something of the sort

#

how would you deal with the 2^x+1?

heady cradle
#

close, remember what demaw said, 2^(x+a)= (2^x) times (2^a)

#

so when you divide 2^(x+a) by 2^x you get left with 2^a

snow ocean
#

ohhhhh

heady cradle
#

so what you reckon we get when we divide 2^(x+1) by 2^x

#

?

snow ocean
#

2^1

heady cradle
#

exactly :v

snow ocean
#

you're a lifesaver thank you so much

heady cradle
#

do that for all the lhs elements and you'll have some number times 2^x

#

good luck :v

snow ocean
heady cradle
#

what was the question to begin with?

snow ocean
#

the original function?

snow ocean
#

solve for x

heady cradle
#

oooh okay

#

so you have to find an x where 23(2^x)=40(3^x)

#

logs probably is the best way to go then I expect

#

and I hate logs lol

#

do you know what ln(a times b) is?

snow ocean
#

ln(a)+ln(b) right?

heady cradle
#

yep

#

you know what ln(a^b) is?

snow ocean
#

bln(a) ?

heady cradle
#

yep

#

try using that to get to next stage :v

snow ocean
#

gotcha, thanks again

heady cradle
#

np, ping if stuck

terse pivot
#

2^0+2^1+2^2+2^3=1+2+4+8=15

heady cradle
#

he's right ^

snow ocean
#

omgggg what am i doing

#

you're right yes

#

for some reason i did 2^3 = 16 no idea how

heady cradle
#

you could probably make the problem easier now and divide both sides by 5

snow ocean
#

okay. this is the last equation i have. i cancelled out the natural logs (can i do that?) and got a final result of x=-25 after some light algebra

#

ended up with 2x + 15 = 3x + 40

#

its never that easy though is it Pained

heady cradle
#

that might well be the right answer assuming you following the method, I'm thinking it might be worth attacking it from the angle of reducing the problem before taking the logs...

15(2^x) = 40 (3^x)
3(2^x) = 8 (3^x)
now on lhs you have 3^1 and on rhs you have 2^3 (multiplied by the main equation components)

now lets do the logs....

ln(3(2^x)) = ln(8(3^x))
xln(2)+ln(3) = xln(3) + ln(8)
xln(2)+ln(3) = xln(3) + ln(2^3)
xln(2)+ln(3) = xln(3) + 3ln(2)

Then reduce components on both sides... (first, minus ln(3) from both sides then minus ln 3ln(2) from both sides)

(x-3)ln(2) = (x-1)ln3

#

this would get you
2^(x-3) = 3^(x-1)

The probems been reduced but I honetly don't know where to go from here :I

#

What you had with
xln(2)+ln(15)=xln(3)
Im not sure reduces down to
2x + 15 = 3x + 40
but im not too sure, like I said, I hate logs
@terse pivot I think you're smarter than me, is this correct?

agile grail
#

Why would you reduce the logs?

heady cradle
#

simplify the problem

agile grail
#

$x = \frac{\ln(40) - \ln(15)}{\ln(2) - \ln(3)}$

solid kilnBOT
#

Memiya

heady cradle
#

how come? (opportunity for me to learn as well)

agile grail
#

the natural logs are all constants

snow ocean
#

how do you separate the x from the ln(2) and ln(3)? you would just end up with x+(-x) on the left hand side if you were to divide out ln(2) and ln(3)

#

i might be misunderstanding

agile grail
#

minus xln(3) on both sides

#

factorise out x

#

divide by ln(2)-ln(3)

heady cradle
#

i see it oh god, that was the easy bit xd T-T

snow ocean
#

ohhhhhhhh makes sense

agile grail
solid kilnBOT
#

Memiya

snow ocean
#

peacefully hoping logarithms are wiped from existence in the near future 🫡

#

eitherway, thank you guys

agile grail
heady cradle
#

good luck, and ty memiya :v

Is this function symmetrical?

trim joltBOT

#

Yes

#

Because if you rotate it 180° it's the same.

#

To (0,0)

wraith hinge
#

And how can you find out to which point (x|y) this function is symmetric?

glossy urchin
#

I don't know .

#

Sorry

balmy vessel
balmy vessel
#

the point’s x coordinate is just the x coord of the vertical asymptote
and the point’s y coordinate is the value of the diagonal asymptote at x

wraith hinge
#

-0.75x+0.5 is the vertical asympote

#

,w -0.75x+0.5

balmy vessel
#

i dont think so

#

the vertical asymptote is where the denominator hits 0

#

oh wait

#

yeah were talking about g(x) here right

wraith hinge

so the point is (0.5|0.0125)

A ball is bouncing in such a way the height that the ball reached is decreasing geometrically. If the ball was dropped at 18ft high, how high will the ball have reached in its 2nd bounce if it reached 8 feet on its third bounce?

Hey guys I have a quick linear algebra question. When you do row reduction, can you just divide one row by a number to get a 1? For example, if you have following matrix, can you/ should you divide row 3 by 2? Thanks

delicate bobcat
#

dividing is multiplying by reciprocal, so you can do this

dark lily
#

so when you row reduce youre supposed to divide then right? Besically strive for a number '1' pivot in every collumn?

For the series explain how you know it converges and find it's sum: $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} n(\frac{1}{2})^{n}$

solid kilnBOT
#

Saul Gone

wraith hinge
#

How would you find its sum?

celest heath
#

The trick is to write down the infinite sum of just the geometric series part, differentiate both sides and manipulate the equality until you get what you want to calculate on one side

wraith hinge
#

yup

wraith hinge
#

but my professor said it was wrong

#

he said "how can a series be differentiable"

#

is there any way to prove that the method is okay?

#

cuz I learned it in calculus BC but I was never told why it was true

celest heath
#

You can subtract it from a series you know, namely the geometric series and algebraically manipulate it some other way

wraith hinge
#

okay

solid kilnBOT
#

Saul Gone

wraith hinge
#

and then take the sum of that?

celest heath
#

Notice that if you have something that looks like $(n+1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{n} = n\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{n} + \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{n}$

#

So you essentially want to start with a sum $S = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} n(1/2)^n $ and manipulate both sides to get an expression on the right hand side into a piece can calculate, the geometric part and the part you don't know which is some function of $S$ then solve for $S$.

Also if you already tried a method and was told it was not allowed, omitting that detail and then moving the goal post after the fact is really not appreciated.

@wraith hinge Has your question been resolved?

wraith hinge
#

okay

wraith hinge
#

I thought I didn't remember my stuff from BC correctly

#

cuz I'm sure you can differentiate power series, but I thought I got this part wrong

#

I didn't include it as a possibility until you said it

torpid orchid
#

Hello, does anybody know how one should interpret this negation😅

inland orbit
#

There do not exist elements y and z in U such that x = yz

torpid orchid
#

Would it be the same as this except that x = yz?

inland orbit
#

Actually it's exactly equivalent to that, the =/= sign is correct

torpid orchid
#

oh so they're the same huh

inland orbit
#

Yeah

#

The first one says "There are no elements y and z such that x is the product"
The second says "For any elements y and z, x is not the product.

#

They mean the same

torpid orchid
#

if U={2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20}, does that mean that the answer will be all the prime numbers in that set?

inland orbit
#

Yes

torpid orchid
#

Alright, thank you so much!

inland orbit
#

That's actually very similar to the example I was gonna use lol

torpid orchid
#

Yeah haha, I just needed someone to confirm it

#

and one more doubt I have

#

For this would the answer be {4,9,16}?

inland orbit
#

Is U the integers from 2 to 20 again?

torpid orchid
#

Yep

inland orbit
#

Then yes

Oh alright thank you so much, that was it

long oar
#

How does this

trim joltBOT
long oar
#

simplify to this?

glossy urchin
#

First of all, 2! is 2

#

And because they have the same denominator you can just add the fractions to (n-1)(n+(n-2))/2

#

Because you can factor (n-1) out.

long oar
#

wait, how can you factor out the second (n-1)?

glossy urchin
#

You have n(n-1) + (n-1)(n-2)

#

And you can factor n-1 out so that you have (n-1) (n + (n-2))

long oar
#

so it would look like n/2 + 2(n-1)(n-2) then you divide by 2. and just add n?

glossy urchin
#

No

#

If you have ab + ac you can factor the a out to a*(b+c)

#

And here a = (n-1)

#

b = n

#

c = (n - 2)

haughty sinew

in particular trying to find the distribution f_u(U)

have X=UV^2 and Y=V-1

#

im assuming 1<V<2 and 0<U<1 but when i calculate

f_xy(UV^2,V-1)|J|

then integrate v out from 1 to 2 i am not getting the right answer

amber python
#

your original bounds become 0 < v - 1 < uv^2 < 1

#

so to integrate out v you need to calculate the lower and upper bound of v correctly

#

1 < v is the easier one

#

the other one is not so nice it would seem

#

,w solve v - 1 = uv^2 for v

meager python
#

prove that n*2^(n-1) = sum {0 < k <= n} k nCk

meager python
#

i've tried the binomial theorem
2^n = sum {0 < k <= n} nCk k(n-k)

#

maybe multiply by 1/2 n on both sides but idk how to proceed

deft flame
#

using the binom theorem on (x+1)^n and then differentiating both sides probably works

meager python
#

hmm our class doesn't require calc but i'll see

#

how do you differentiate a summation

#

oops found it

#

hmm if i differentiate it i get:
sum {0 < k <= n} nCk (n-2k)

deft flame
#

wdym?

#

you should get $\sum_{k=1}^{n}k\binom{n}{k}x^{k-1}$ i believe

solid kilnBOT

the other side (x+1)^n you can use chain rule

How do we get 9/10 in the denominator? If I multiply the fraction with 1-sqr (1/10), I get (9+sqr 10)/10 in the denominator

you violated the order of operations

forgetting the appropriate parentheses

you should be multiplying

my very last question for today :D
(Z× {−1, −2}) ∩ ({3, 4} × Z)
Z stands for integer e.g. ( ...,-2-1,0, 1, 2, ...) but since i don't have a particular given number how will i find out all the elements :/ ?
or is it an empty set since none of the numbers written out are overlapping?

#

@undone knoll Has your question been resolved?

grand mason
#

is this right ??

if:
P(Predicted H | H) = 0.6
then:
1 - rule gives:
P(Predicted F | H) = 0.4

undone knoll
#

i am not sure... the topic is sets and this form: P(Predicted H | H) = 0.6 i never had it in school which is quite amusing since i'm gonna need it now in university

# undone knoll my very last question for today :D (Z× {−1, −2}) ∩ ({3, 4} × Z) Z stands for in...

okay so this might not be fully right since it was quite awhile since i did this but. × is suppose to mean cartesian product.

If so then Z× {−1, −2} would be
{... (-2,-1),(-1,-1),(0,-1),(1,-1)....(-1,-2),(0,-2),(1,-2)... } basically all the pairs such that (a,-1) and (a,-2) where for all a in Z

And {3, 4} × Z:
{... (3,-1),(3,0),(3,1)....(4,-1),(4,0),(4,1).... }

Then it's just about thinking what pairs overlapp in the first and second expression

@tidal dome Has your question been resolved?

wraith hinge
#

a) let's put the point D where the median from vertex A collides with (BC)

#

Can you find the coordinates of D?

#

You can start by drawing the median, if you can't, check the definition of the median

#

Then you have a line with point A and D, you can find the equation of this line?!

#

@tidal dome

tidal dome
#

Oh okay

#

So like find the midpoint of BC

wraith hinge
#

Sure thing

tidal dome
#

Than use that midpoint with point a to find slope

#

Than use that slope with one of the points in the y=mx +b

#

I think

wraith hinge
#

Why not

tidal dome
#

Okay

#

Than for finding the right bisector of BC, you just find the slope of both points, make it perpendicular (opposite recirprocal), find the midpoint and use the y=mx+b formula with another point

tidal dome
wraith hinge
#

yes

#

You need to find another point, you could read one if you draw the bisector

tidal dome
#

Oh okay

#

Thanks for you help

delicate lance
#

How do I form the equation for this ? I'm very confused , its rational expression stuff

solemn thorn
delicate lance
#

Okay

solemn thorn
#

you know how to solve work problems right

delicate lance
#

I know how to solve them idk how to form the equation

solemn thorn
#

can i just shorten coulter to C and delnea to D

delicate lance
#

Yeah

solemn thorn
#

since long name i hate it

#

according to the problem C takes 30 min longer than D

#

so lets say D is 1/x

#

and C is?

delicate lance
#

1/x + 30 ?

solemn thorn
#

seems legit

#

now according to the problem

#

they can devour a bag of chips in 8 minutes

#

you know how to calculate when 2 people work together right?

delicate lance
#

Not really

solemn thorn
#

lets say 2 people work on something together. 1 can do it in 2 minutes and 1 can do it in 3. how much time will it take if they work together?

#

usually the equation for this would be

#

1/2 + 1/3 = 1/x

#

@delicate lance you know the value when they work together

#

which is 1/8 isnt it

delicate lance
#

IWait

#

What would the x mean

#

The total time ?

solemn thorn
#

x is the time both people work together

delicate lance
#

oh ok

solemn thorn
#

or the time taken if they both work together

#

since its unknown remember

delicate lance
#

yes

solemn thorn
#

1/8 is the time if they eat chips together

delicate lance
solemn thorn
#

ok so form the equation

#

? + ? = 1/8

#

D has a rate of 1/x
and C has a rate of 1/x+30

delicate lance
#

1/x + 1/x + 30 = 1/8

solemn thorn
#

1/x + 1/(x+30) = 1/8

delicate lance
#

Ohh ok

solemn thorn
delicate lance
#

Ur right

#

The x's are just confusing me

#

The x means total time in that equation ?

solemn thorn
#

x means an unknown value

#

in the problem we dont know the value of how fast C and D can eat chips alone

#

but we do know the value of how fast C and D can eat chips together

#

so you have to firstly represent it with a variable

delicate lance
#

Oh i see

solemn thorn
#

ok now before you close the thread

#

just try and solve the equation

solemn thorn
delicate lance
#

Okay will u be here to correct me when im done

solemn thorn
#

probably unless i drop deas

#

dead

delicate lance
#

Oh nooo 🙀

#

Ill try to do it quickly then

solemn thorn
#

im not going to drop dead

delicate lance
#

haha ik

#

Wait would the lcd be 8x(x+30) or is that wrong

solemn thorn
#

sounds about right

delicate lance
#

Okay

solemn thorn
#

it shouldnt really matter since ur gonna multiply everything anyway

delicate lance
#

oh yeah ur right

solemn thorn
#

let me solve in my head rq

#

nvm on paper

delicate lance
#

hahha

#

anyone who can do this in their head is crazy

#

Anyways so far i got x^2 + 14x - 240 = 0

solemn thorn
#

ok at this point my head is hurting

#

im going to my calculator site

delicate lance
#

aha okayy

#

I got x = 10

solemn thorn
#

ok now try and plug iy in

delicate lance
#

Okayy

solemn thorn
#

1/10 + 1/40 = 1/8

delicate lance
#

I got 0.125

#

Which is 1/8 i think

solemn thorn
#

seems legit

delicate lance
#

Yay

#

I dont know why because i understood what you were saying on how to form the equation but i feel like i'll forget if i attempt alone

solemn thorn
#

just remember to represent what you dont know with a variable

delicate lance
#

Can we look through other hard questions and you tell me what i should set x as

solemn thorn
#

go ahead

#

i have time im not on my death bed

delicate lance
#

LOL

#

Look for a question thats easy

#

Or we can just do one

solemn thorn
#

eh ill just choose 1.

delicate lance
#

LOL

solemn thorn
#

1

#

oh nvm it isnt a work problem

delicate lance
#

is that bad

#

I can go back to the work problems cause those confuse me too

solemn thorn
#

ok ill just choose 1

#

im shortening tran to T since so long name

delicate lance
#

Okay

solemn thorn
#

mr T has a speed of 5

#

the length of Treadmill is 200

#

we are finding for the treadmill speed

#

so that will be our x

delicate lance
#

Oh okay

#

Wait

#

Is the trick to finding x

#

just looking at the last sentence

#

And seeing what its asking

solemn thorn
#

its just the unknown part

delicate lance
#

Oh

solemn thorn
#

@delicate lance btw for your first question

#

the speed of D is 10min and C is 40min

#

since thats whats asked in the problem

delicate lance
#

Ohh alright

#

I understand

#

Hold on im gonna zoom into the question and repost it

solemn thorn
#

ok so let me just walk this through

#

i dont get it too so🕵️

delicate lance
#

Oky

solemn thorn
#

so firstly T has a speed of 5

#

and length is 200

delicate lance
#

Lolll no worries

solemn thorn
#

unknown would be the speed of the treadmill

#

which will be x

#

in 2 minutes and 5 seconds he is out of the treadmill

#

the treadmill must push him

#

200/(5+x) for pushing him.forward

#

and 200/(5-x) for backward

#

then you add both of them to get 125s

#

then do some magical hullaballoo

#

@delicate lance at this point i dont get the problem

#

if something is unknown its x

delicate lance
#

Like the clear the denominators stuff?

#

Or what

solemn thorn
#

i get that but im p sure ill confuse people more

#

just find the unknown part and its x

delicate lance
#

Yeah u dont need to explain that part im okay with it i guess

solemn thorn
#

ask your professor or some other smarter people here for more help

delicate lance
#

U explain it better

#

Everyone else uses big words to look smarter n it only helps less .

solemn thorn
#

close the thread once your done trying to grasp what im saying

delicate lance
#

okay

solemn thorn
#

im going to perish by

delicate lance
#

Ur leaving

#

#

just close it once ur done

sorry for bad translation,
A point which isnt an element of the set of points in a complex plane which are given by the following system of inequalities |z+i|>2 and |z-1|<2, where z is a complex number

  1. (1,-1) 2) (0,-1) 3) (1,0) 4) (1,1)

i got y>-x
so thenboth 1 and 2 dont belong in the set
but in the solutions its 4)
which im pretty sure isnt because also sqrt(1^2+2^2)>2 and sqrt((1-1)^2+1^2)<2 so it does belong
also if i use the definition of modulo i get that 1) and 2) dont belong, in first case its the first condition and in the second case its the second condition
could someone tell me if its correct that 1) and 2) dont belong in the set

#

yo yo yo does anyone know how to optimize with 2 variables

solid summit
#

im trying to get the maximum r by adjusting a and b

#

@edgy cedar ill wolfram it anyways its just the methid

edgy cedar
#

Oh then you have to take partial derivatives r_a and r_b

#

Set the gradient vector = 0

solid summit
#

say wha

#

could u explain? pls

#

i get gradient =0

edgy cedar
#

Do you know partial derivatives?

solid summit
#

i dont think i do

#

is it like when u find d/dx and theres a different letter

edgy cedar
#

Let’s say you have a multi variable function f where $f(x,y)=x^2 + 3y$

solid kilnBOT
edgy cedar
#

In Partial derivatives with the respect to x $\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}$ we treat y as a constant

solid kilnBOT
edgy cedar
#

This allows us to observe how f changes as only x changes

#

In this case $f_x = 2x$

solid kilnBOT
edgy cedar
#

That’s another notation for partial f wrst x

solid summit
#

i think i get it?

#

so wait can i just do

#

$\frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left(\frac{0.31831a}{b}\left(-\:\frac{0.261799b^3}{a^2}-\sqrt{-\frac{0.0548311b^6}{a^4}+\frac{1.5708b\log \left|b+\sqrt{\left(b^2+1\right)}\right|}{a^2}+\frac{1.5708\sqrt{\left(b^2+1\right)}b^2}{a^2}+\frac{4663.51\:b}{a}}\right)\right)$

solid kilnBOT
edgy cedar
#

The gradient vector of f is given by $\nabla f = \begin{bmatrix}
f_x\
f_y \
\end{bmatrix}

the rest... less

edgy cedar
solid summit
#

i mean i dont really need to understand why any of this works

#

yeah

#

ive never done partial derivatives so im very confused by this

#

oh wait is it just like

edgy cedar
#

This is a nice video to look at

solid summit
#

i only differentiate a part of the f(x)?

edgy cedar
#

You only care about x and treat y like a constant

solid summit
#

so say i have f(x) = x^3y

#

and diff wrt x

#

i get 3x^2y

edgy cedar
#

Yeah

solid summit
#

ohh thats sick

#

i guess ill watch the video

#

thx a bunch for the help

#

before i do tho

#

will this be giga pain?

edgy cedar
#

You mean optimising your function by hand?

solid summit
#

no god not by hand

edgy cedar
#

Definitely

solid summit
#

with wolfram or symbolab

#

also do u know if u can input latex in wolfram natural text? it works sometimes for me

edgy cedar
#

Tbh I’m not sure it would be a bit painful to input all of this

solid summit
#

i have the latex form is why

edgy cedar
solid summit
#

hm okay

edgy cedar
#

But similar

solid summit
#

but this is doable right? finding the optimized version of this?

edgy cedar
#

Well probably you have to worry if it’s saddle point, local max or local min

#

I can’t really say at this stage

#

What is it anyway

solid summit
#

a and b are from this: y=ax^2+bx+c

edgy cedar
#

Right

solid summit
#

and r is the y component of the maxima

#

why sad?

#

oh but also theres 2 equations baked in that are requirements for what a and b can be

edgy cedar
#

Oh

#

Then you might need to use Lagrange multiplier to solve these

solid summit
#

laga what

edgy cedar
#

Because you have constants on a and b

solid summit
#

dude screw my teacher he said i could do this

#

im in high school xD

#
