knotty locust
#

if you let u=tan(x)

#

from what you have in your paper there

#

you will get u^8(1+u^2)

#

so try that again

thorn shale
#

integral of u^(8) + u^(10)

#

which answer is

#

u^(9)/9 + u^(11)/11 + c?

#

plug in tan fr u

#

this is what i got

#

apparently it's wrong

knotty locust
#

looks correct to me...

#

oh

#

it is because you included the +C

thorn shale
#

hmm

knotty locust
#

see your homework has it for you already

#

on the outside

thorn shale
#

oh yes

#

it supplies the c for me

#

thank u!

knotty locust
#

no problem

thorn shale
#

it there a general rule

#

when u can realize u messed up?

#

and subbed for something you shouldn't have?

#

i feel my integrating skills aren't bad.. but my issue is like

#

identifying the wrong thing

knotty locust
#

my general rule would be if making a substitution makes it looks more complicated you probably shouldn't be making that substitution

thorn shale
#

and then not knowing if im right or wrong then i get stuck

knotty locust
#

every substitution you make should be for a reason, to simplify the integral

thorn shale
#

like in my first case

knotty locust
#

also

thorn shale
#

it was a integral of multiplcation

#

if it was u^(8) + sec^(2)x maybe it wouldve been viable?

knotty locust
#

doesn't look like it to me

#

because you have now two variables

#

so you made it more complicated

#

instead of more simple

thorn shale
#

ahh

knotty locust
#

There is a general method for integrating tan and sec together

#

I'll put it below

#

To integrate

thorn shale
#

ty!

knotty locust
#

,, \int{\tan{x}^{k}*\sec{x}^{j}}

solid kilnBOT
#

AustinU

knotty locust
#
  1. If J is even and larger than 2, rewrite sec^j(x) as sec^(j-2)(x) * sec^2(x) and use the identity sec^2(x)=tan^2(x)+1 to rewrite sec^(j-2)(x) in terms of tan(x) and substitute u=tan(x).
#

^ that is the case for the integral we just did

thorn shale
#

breaking it up

#

i see

knotty locust
#
  1. If k is odd and J >= 1 , rewrite tan^k(x)sec^j(x)=tan^(k-1)sec^(j-1)sec(x)tan(x) and use tan^2(x)=sec^2(x)-1 to rewrite tan^(k-1)(x) in terms of sec(x) then let u=sec(x).
#
  1. If k is odd where k>= 3 and j=0 rewrite tan^k(x)=tan^(k-2)tan^2(x) = tan^(k-2)(sec^2(x)-1)=tan^(k-2)(x)sec^2(x)-tan(k-2)(x). It may be necessary to repeat this process on the last term
#
  1. If k is even and j is odd, use tan^2(x)=sec^2(x)-1 to express tan^k(x) in terms of sec(x) and use integration by parts to integrate odd powers of sec(x)
#

or use the power reduction formulas

solid kilnBOT
#

AustinU

knotty locust
#

and the similar formula for tan you can find on googl

thorn shale
#

ty for the explanatnion!

#

appreciate it

knotty locust
#

yeah no problem

Help to find area for the cone and sphere

rugged latch

trim joltBOT
#
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'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
visual patrol
#

I have begun but got stuck

rugged latch
#

Can u show what u have alrdy tried?

visual patrol
#

I’ve tried this

#

Didn’t get the right answer

rugged latch
#

Alright let’s start from the top

visual patrol
#

Alright

rugged latch
#

So first we wanna break it up into 2 figures

#

The hemisphere and the cone

#

A hemisphere is just a half of a sphere

#

So what’s the formula for a hemispheres volume?

visual patrol
#

A=4x3.14 to the power of 2

#

oh i forgot to r

solid kilnBOT
#

Stephen

rugged latch
#

So what would half of that be

visual patrol
#

157

rugged latch
visual patrol
#

261.67?

rugged latch
#

No, Im not asking u to evaluate it yet

#

Just find the formula for the volume of a hemisphere

rugged latch
#

Don’t plug in any numbers yet

visual patrol
#

3πr2

#

is that the formula for the hemisphere?

rugged latch
#

3*pi * r^2 ? No

visual patrol
#

the 2 is power btw

rugged latch
#

I’ll show u

#

So we have $\frac 43 \pi r^3$ as sphere volume. Half of that would be hemisphere volume which is $\frac 43 \pi r^3 \cdot \frac 12$

solid kilnBOT
#

Stephen

visual patrol
#

Alright

solid kilnBOT
#

Stephen

rugged latch
#

Simplify it

#

It’s just multiplying the fractions

what have you tried chromium

#

you're literally spying on me now

#

not fair

#

anyway

scarlet escarp
#

i was waiting for y’all to finish cause i like this question lol

novel flax
#

oh, yea so for this question

#

no induction is allowed

#

because it's just a different topic

#

and i have absolutely no idea how to approach this

#

maybe

#

splitting the $2^{n-1}$ into $2^n * \frac{1}{2}$

#

wait what

#

i'm on crack

solid kilnBOT
#

chromium

novel flax
#

is that right

#

smth about that seems off

scarlet escarp
#

so we cant do induction?

novel flax
#

nop

#

did that last year

#

none of this topic has contained any induction

scarlet escarp
#

if you’ve done it previously it could be considered common knowledge

novel flax
#

and it will always say "prove by induction"

high heron
#

2^n means you've multiplied 2 n times, and n! means you've multiplied all the naturals n or less together

high heron
#

also the bigger of a (positive) number you multiply by, the bigger the result

novel flax
#

ye but i need some formal proof

#

some algebraic manipulation or smth

high heron
#

so on the lhs you've multiplied n-1 twos, and on the rhs a bunch of numbers all greater than or equal to 2, and then an extra 1

So f(6)=f(4+2)=?

still comet
#

OH YEA, 24

marble wharf
#

No

still comet
#

16?

marble wharf
#

Are you guessing? Share your thought process

still comet
#

In f(2) can = 1+1 , and f(x) = x f(x) , so f(2) = 1(1+1) = 2
Following this f(6)= 4+2 , thus 4(4+2) = 24,

Poor Dolly's T.V. has only 4 channels, all of them quite boring.
Hence it is not surprising that she desires to switch (change) channel after every one minute. Then find the number of ways in which she can change the channels so that she is back to her original channel for the first time after 4 min.

The logic they used I am unable to understand it.

foggy swift
#

Wait

solid kilnBOT
foggy swift
#

After 3rd minute, she has 2 choices to switch the channel

But after 3rd minute it should have only 1 choice right

I don't think it's necessary that she switches to unique channels every time

split chasm
#

can you do a rough sketch of what you'll have after the transformation?
label the new turning points

midnight kite
#

From the graph you can decipher the equation of f(x) as (x-3)²x

Now f(x+2) + 4 = (x-1)²(x+2) + 4

Now you just have to find k such that the equation (x-1)²(x+2)= k-4 has 3 solutions

#

You can do that by plotting L.H.S

#

I don't think so....

#

Ah wait f(x) = a(x-3)² x for a ig you can use the point (1,4) which is given

#

Which gives a as 1

#

You don't need to know much, a cubic is a polynomial with 3 roots, all 3 of which are shown so you can directly write the equation

#

I suppose you know curve sketching using derivatives?

@wraith hinge

#

You can take log to base 1/3 in both sides

#

Or apply change of bases

wraith hinge
#

Since you asked, suppose we take the log: $\log(4) = y\log\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$

solid kilnBOT
wraith hinge
#

then we have $y = \frac{\log(4)}{\log\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)}$

solid kilnBOT
wraith hinge
#

And using the change of base rule, we can combine this fraction into one logarithm.

#

That is, $y = \log_{\frac{1}{3}}(4)$

i am confused about what the following is asking

specifically the end of it

like what is f[s] whats that notation even

#

yeah no im sorta struggling to even get what the question is asking to prove

trim joltBOT

@wraith hinge Has your question been resolved?

cunning cliff
#

f[S] probably means the image of S

#

f[S] := {f(s) : s in S}

#

Hopefully this notation should have been defined beforehand.

I would consider drawing a diagram to understand the question

idk you split up the fraction in a weird way imo

i would just use the conjugate $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}}+1$

Or you can directly use limit rules, ie apply to both numerator and denominator later inside the root

converted 77F to C

then took 3 away since its the difference

then converted 22C to K

by adding 273.15

#

but it seems to be wrong

#

Hmm yes I did the same thing and got ur answer, but when I did it the other way around, I got a different answer, which is kind of nonsensical

#

I’m not sure why that would be

stoic saddle
#

if I said that 3 degrees c is 276k does that make it clearer?

#

a one unit change in celsius or kelvin are identical, the only difference are the zeros

rapid kiln
#

so do i convert everything to Kelvins then do the questoin

stoic saddle
rapid kiln

#

just the premise that you are working out the difference between 295 and 276

or 22 and 3.

yea but it still get the same answer

#

what formulas do i use to get answer? i used online calculator to get this but dont understand how

long basin
#

,tex \linearization

solid kilnBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

long basin
#

But like

#

You don't even need a formula

#

Not everything needs a formula; if you understand the relationship between a function and its derivative, as well as properties of a tangent, then a formula is not necessary

violet nest
#

i dont understand relationship between function and derivative

long basin
#

The derivative of a function is the slope of the function

violet nest
#

or props of tangent

long basin
#

And a tangent line intersects curve only once, locally

#

That's by definition

#

If you've done tangents with circles

#

Or even tangent by dictionary definition

#

Same applies

#

And then the derivative is the slope of a function. At a location, x_0, f'(x_0) will tell you the instantaneous slope of f(x) at x = x_0

#

So you know the tangent must only intersect at a singular point

long basin
#

Point slope form is gonna carry you

violet nest
#

i do not understand "x_0, f'(x_0) will tell you the instantaneous slope of f(x) at x = x_0"

#

what is x_0

long basin
#

Some variable

#

$x_0$

solid kilnBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

long basin
#

Or rather

#

A random constant

violet nest
#

f'(x_0)

long basin
#

The derivative evaluated at x_0

violet nest
#

is that a place on a graph?

long basin
#

No it's literally an evaluation of the derivative

#

Like

#

If f(x) = 2x^2 + 5x

#

What would f'(2) be

violet nest
#

16 + 10

#

26

long basin
#

No that's f(2), not f'(2)

#

So you're not even familiar with the notation...

#

Hm

#

$f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} f(x)$

solid kilnBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

violet nest
#

what is f'(x)

long basin
#

f'(x) is the first derivative of f(x)

violet nest
#

f'(x) is derivative formula?

long basin
#

No, that's just how we notate it

#

Or the many ways we notate a derivative

#

You gotta get familiar with the notations

#

I'm very concerned that you're doing linearizations, but aren't familiar with notations or fundamentals. You have any notes you took? Maybe what the teacher's been saying has been janky

violet nest
#

i was sick and missed class so i have to try to learn myself

long basin
#

But the underlying aspect of the derivative is that the derivative is the slope of a function. When evaluated at some location, x = x_0, then it tells you the instantaneous rate of change.

#

I'd go on Khan Academy and view their intro to derivatives

#

Because it seems you've missed a fuck ton from being sick

#

Which sucks. Your teacher should've helped you with catching up

violet nest
#

before i go check out khan. can you tell me what numbers i put into derivative formula?

#

what numbers mean what variables in the formula

long basin
violet nest
#

im confused where i put what numbers

long basin
#

Analyze it a bit

#

I have to go

This is the solution

#

But i did something which is wrong, and i don't know why.

#

Number of way of selecting $C^5_{1}*C^n_{1}*C^{4+n-1}_{1}$

#

So this $C^5_{1}*C^n_{1}*C^{4+n-1}_{1} = 1750$

#

I don't know why my solution is wrong

wraith hinge
#

@plucky arch i think its wrong because when u are doing it ur way

#

You are selecting one boy and then selecting another boy from a reduced group

#

Not sure lemme think

#

5C1 x 4C1 is different from 5C2 isn't it

@plucky arch Has your question been resolved?

When u pick one boy and then another boy

U are inherently ordering or arranging them

#

Or when u pick one girl and then another girl

#

It's not the same as pickin 2 girls or 2 boys from a group

plucky arch
#

Oh so it's like permutations.makes sense

Yes

Here u are not worried about the order

My mind is going brr

#

I am not very familliar with deravatives

#

Only know basics of it

#

But as far as i know

#

Integration is area under graph

#

sully how does area under the graph equals to sum here

frozen plover
#

Don't think too much about it

#

Also I did warn you a few days ago you're gonna have to integrate

#

Only definite integration finds area

frozen plover
#

Okay that doesn't help since this is definite integration

wraith hinge
#

What about the limits

frozen plover
#

Pick whatever limits are convenient for you

wraith hinge
trim lichen
#

oh, generating function fuckery sotrue

frozen plover
trim lichen
#

i don't think you should be looking at this through a geometric light @wraith hinge

frozen plover
#

Since in this case you want the binomial coefficients only, we integrate from 0 to 1

wraith hinge
#

Show me da light

frozen plover
#

Integration is just convenient here since it divides the polynomial by the new power

frozen plover
#

It's the best way to solve the question

wraith hinge
#

Y not 0 to n

frozen plover
#

You can do that

wraith hinge

But then you're gonna put n = 1 anyways

yes we are

frozen plover
#

I think you have it in your mind that integration is solely for calculating area

wraith hinge
#

Bruh

trim lichen
#

we are indeed just integrating to get the expression we want

#

$(1+x)^n = \sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k} x^k$

Hello, I am looking for a way to prove that the orthocentre of a triangle is outside of the triangle when the triangle has an angle greater than 90 degrees, specifically using vectors. I have used desmos to see that it happens in all cases, but I do not know how to prove it. For the task I am doing, i need to do it making use of vectors. Thanks

orchid canyon
#

(stolen from quora but shows what i mean)

inland orbit
#

Orthocenter?

#

In your picture, you've constructed the circumcenter, not the orthocenter

#

The orthocenter is the intersection of the altitudes

#

The circumcenter is the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors

#

my bad, either one works. I need to prove if either the orthocentre or circumcentre are outside, so either is fine

# orchid canyon Hello, I am looking for a way to prove that the orthocentre of a triangle is out...

Greetings from a random guy~ (who as well have not received help after posting a question lol)
So firstly I am sorry that I do not have relevant knowledge about vectors, but I can try to solve it with the use of coordinate geometry and you can see whether you can gain inspiration~

Letting origin O be one vertex of the triangle, and extending it towards the x+ direction we have the second vertex of (x1, 0). Let us name this point A and the third vertex named B.

Now let <AOB be the obtuse angle. With the use of simple graphical manipulation, we can observe that B is located in the top left quadrant. Hence, the altitude at B does not intersect the triangle at anywhere except B itself!
And let's consider the altitude at A and O. However, as there is no right angle in the triangle, we can deduce that both altitudes do not intersect the triangle at B. Hence the intersection of 3 altitudes, which is the orthocentre, must occur outside of the triangle.

#

The case will be the same if you let the other 2 angles as the obtuse, because you can simply rotate the triangle to fit the original model

solid kilnBOT

#

Now alright

#

Ok so

#

We are not writing it as sin(π/3)

#

Cause it would give a negative value for x

#

We are just writing it as π-60

Which is ultimately 120° and sin(120°)=√3/2

#

Which satisfies the conditions

#

,w π/12-x/4=π-60

solid kilnBOT

Yeah it is a positive value

Can someone walk me through the steps of completing the square?

full dock
#

4x^2 + 9x - 12 = 0

#

I know you half 9 and square it but I’m not doing the whole thing correctly

serene latch
#

@full dock divide by 4

#

and do that

#

divide everything by 4

full dock
#

What

#

Why

#

Then we get decimal for 9

serene latch
#

@full dock that's fine

long basin
#

Completing the square works nicely if the leading coefficient is 1. Dividing by 4 enforces that that leading coefficient will be 1

#

As a result, the x-term will have a coefficient of 9/4, but that shouldn't be an issue nor concerning

full dock
#

What should we do

serene latch
#

What do you mean can't divide anything

long basin
#

3x^2 + 7x - 12 will have the same roots as x^2 + 7/3 x - 4

full dock
#

I was never taught to divide the equation first

full dock
long basin
#

Won't be fun

#

Because then you'd have to divide 9 by 4 anyways instead of halving it

#

Might as well divide by 4

full dock
#

and he never really divided the equation first unless it was something like

#

3x^2 + 3x - 9 for example

but they restrict the graph at -2<y<2

#

how does that work?

median radish
slim knot
#

what about the lower bound?

#

@median radish

median radish
#

the value of the function reduces between t = 0 and t = pi

slim knot
#

but when its either 0 or pi its 2

median radish
#

so, even if the function is equal at t = 0 and t = pi doesn't mean that it's range is just 2.

slim knot
#

how would i know if its not just 2?

median radish
#

because function has value which are less than 2

#

for eg, for t = pi/2

#

y = -2

slim knot
#

oah

median radish
#

range refers to all the values the function can output

#

so there's no reason that evaluating the function at initial and final bound of the domain would give you the range of the function.

slim knot
#

so how would i find the range of the function if i don't know the shape?

#

i would have to just draw it out first?

median radish
#

well, for the standard functions like sin, cos and tan, you can have it memorized. For sin and cos, range is [-1, 1]

slim knot
#

the range would look like this?

Let the action in Hamilton's principle is given by
$$
S(\mathbf{q})=\int_{t_0}^{t_1} L(\mathbf{q}(t), \dot{\mathbf{q}}(t), t) \mathrm{d} t
$$
and the trajectory of the system is constrained to lie in a surface ${Q}$. What is the direction of $\delta S / \delta \mathbf{q}(t)$ relative to the surface ${Q}$? I have a hard time trying to understand what the problem is asking for. Isn't it just perpendicular to the normal vector of surface $Q$?

twin mortar
#

Can anyone tell me why \frac{d}{2}-d is -d/2. I always end up with 1/2

slender shard
#

If you multiply -d by 2/2 to make the denominators equivalent, you should see why.

keen axle
#

if you have half of a thing and take away the thing you get negative half of that thing

twin mortar
#

but how is this just not 1/2

slender shard
#

$\frac{d}{2} - \frac{2d}{2}$

twin mortar
#

d-d is 0

solid kilnBOT
#

Kookiemon

twin mortar
#

so you have to multiply the -d with 2?

slender shard
#

Yes, the denominators need to be equivalent before you can add or subtract fractions.

twin mortar
#

it says here its this tho

#

how does -d/2 become positive?

slender shard
#

Can you show the whole thing?

twin mortar
slender shard
#

It did not become positive. The negative symbol was moved out front and became the minus sign.

twin mortar
#

ohhhhhhh

#

thanks for the help

How did they simplify?

trim joltBOT
lament jewel
#

um

wraith hinge
#

Like how did they move the y down

lament jewel
#

they multiplied it by 1=y/y

#

so the numerator and denominator is multiplied by y

#

u can do this when y is non zero

wraith hinge

oh i see. thanks

Hi having a bit of trouble with this question: An apiary of honey bees increases its own numbers by 5%. After the births occur 50 more bees are added to build the population. p_t is used to denote the size of the honey bee's population after t years how I find that value of t when the population is 1500 bees given that p_0 is 500?

unkempt jay
#

Here's the actual question

#

or more simply how do i solve for t in the equation p_t+1 = ap_t + b I can do the rest

im confused here is there a theorem that could help

willow vessel
#

its a paralleogram

#

think about this

#

imagine a paralleogram

supple fiber
#

all parallelograms r equal to 360?

willow vessel
#

what is r?

supple fiber
#

part of 19?

willow vessel
#

no

#

draw a paralleogram on a page

#

mention its sides PQRS

#

and also mention the length of sides given

supple fiber
willow vessel
#

now think what is length of RS now?

supple fiber
#

23?

#

if its congruent to pq

willow vessel
#

yea

#

simple

twin mortar
#

Can someone tell me what im doing wrong?

twin mortar
#

you have to simplify it

#

i ended up with 1/2x+2

#

but its not any of the alternatives

#

i know the answer is 1/2x+1

#

but i get 1/2x+2

midnight kite
#

Well you can take 3 common from the numerator and cancel it with the 3 below

#

You get 2x+1 in the numerator

twin mortar
midnight kite
#

$6x +3 = 3(2x +1)$

solid kilnBOT
midnight kite
#

Check

#

You factorised the denominator wrong as well, or even wrote it wrong in the first line

twin mortar
#

how was it wrong

midnight kite
#

You did 4x² + 4x + 1 = 2x(2x+2)

#

Try multiplying that and see if it matches the L.H.S

twin mortar
#

oh

#

i dont understand

midnight kite
#

You even wrote it as 4x² + 4x +x there, it doesn't match with the question

twin mortar
#

i wrote 4x^2+4x+1?

#

it looks like an x because i do a line to see what i took away

#

if you see

#

the 1 above is also crossed with a line

#

because i took away 1 for 1

#

what is says on the most above is this

#

the second one it says this

#

and the third

#

@midnight kite

#

but the answer is

#

which means i have +1 too much

twin mortar
midnight kite
#

Look you can't just cancel 1 and 1 like that

#

You can only cancel things from numerator and denominator that are in multiplication with the complete expression

#

Like you cancelled 3 from numerator and denominator, it was multiplied to the complete numerator and the complete denominator

twin mortar
#

so if its + or - i cant cancel or what

midnight kite
#

You can't, its not addition or subtraction

twin mortar
#

so only if its divided or multiplied with something?

midnight kite
#

$\frac{3+2}{2+4} = \frac{3}{4}$

solid kilnBOT
midnight kite
#

If we did like your method we will end up like this

#

As you can see its not correct

twin mortar
#

Yeah

midnight kite
#

So now lets try to factorise the quadratic expression in the denominator

#

$4x²+4x +1$
