why would that be necessary?

#

just use the limits given to you

dusk bear
#

idont knowi worked this problem out before i saw the lecture this morning 😭

#

and that was mentioned

#

let me upload my work onto here

dusk bear
worldly wing
#

I think your working was fine

#

just the last substitution is wrong

#

why does x=0 give you a 1?

dusk bear
#

because sin(0) = 1

worldly wing

#

oh

#

oh wait i see

#

for some reason my mind went up the y axis

#

instead of to the right

The sequence ${a_{n}}$ is defined by the following conditions. $\ a_{1} = \frac{1}{2}, a_{2} = \frac{1}{3}, a_{n+2} = \frac{a_{n}a_{n+1}}{2a_{n}-a_{n+1}+2_{a}a_{n+1}}$ \ So the first part of the question was: (i) Let $b_{n} = \frac{1}{a_{n}}.$ Express $b_{n+2}$ in terms of $b_{n+1}$ and $b_{n}.$ Which i got $b_{n+2} = 2b_{n+1}-b_{n} + 2$ by flipping the sequence of $a_{n+2}.$ \\ What I am confused about is the second part to the question which is: Let $b_{n+1} - b_{n} = c_{n}.$ Express $c_{n}$ in terms of $n$.

marsh forum
#

so I'm having a hard time understanding the proof of bezout's lemma

marsh forum
#

more specifically, I'm unable to understand why a d=ax+by must exist

#

even with WOP

spiral kettle
#

a minimal one you mean

#

you can take the set {ax + by: a, b in Z}, and that's a subset of the natural numbers

marsh forum
#

my book just says gcd(a,b)=ax+by

spiral kettle
marsh forum
#

yes

spiral kettle
#

okay, that d is gcd(a,b)

that's what bezout's lemma is

But idk where the centre of the circle is

exotic pine

the slope is perpendicular to the tangent line

#

hm wait actually uhh

marsh forum
#

you also know the distance from the centre to the tangent

exotic pine
#

i dont think its as simple as i thought

marsh forum
#

it is

exotic pine
#

i thought it would be simpler lol

marsh forum
#

if the centre is (h,k) what's the distance between teh point and the line

exotic pine
#

isnt it k,h

marsh forum
#

$d=\frac{|ax_1+by_1+c|}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}$

#

where the line equation is ax+by+c

#

and the point is (x,y)

exotic pine
#

tbh you should probably use x_1 y_1 lol to not cause confusion

solid kilnBOT
#

ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know

twilit latch
#

I think you guys might be overcomplicating this a bit

#

We know the height of the intersection point for the tangent line with the circle

#

Which instantly gives us it's x coordinate

#

And we know how far that point is horizontally from the center of the circle

#

This is all you need

isnt it $T_a \sin{A} = T_b \cos{B} + 2.2g$

Hi, I have a little problem...
I have to solve the image operation, I already did but I still can’t understand step 3, I don't understand why (11m/5pq²r)³•(5r³/7p²)² can be expressed as (11³m³•5²r⁶)/(5³p³q⁶r³•7²p⁴), in the book says that it's by the property power of a product, but as far as I understand, this applies only when the exponents are the same number, in this case the exponents are 3 and 2, I think I lack to understand something, I would appreciate some help.

Is anyone really good with Excel? I'm in a math class and the first assignment is to execute some functions in Excel but there's not even guide for me to even know where to start with what the teacher wants.

severe stump
#

I have a set of data that goes down 1000 rows, and I need to isolate between sex 1 and 2 but I have no idea what function can even execute something like that.

#

I don't even know what I don't know, so I have no idea how to look this up on Google either.

knotty locust
#

what do you mean isolate between sex1 and sex2

#

like sort the rows so that sex1 is all the top rows and then sex2 is all the rows below?

severe stump
#

That's what the instructions say.

split chasm

think you can use a filter function

severe stump
#

A what now

split chasm
#

there's a function in excel called
"FILTER"

supple copper
#

There’s Microsoft excel documentation to look through how to use functions

#

It’d be very useful to learn how to read documentation

split chasm
#

that allows you to grab data that fulfils certain conditions you specify

severe stump
supple copper
split chasm
#

well you know the name now

#

so look up the documentation specifically for "FILTER"

there's also a few channels (i forgot the names)
that do vids on nice excel tips and tricks

Ok. I've never used excel before so this short class is very overwhelming to me.

grim sparrow
#

stupid question: do finite sets contain their limit points?

grim sparrow
#

oh this might be an xy actually

#

let me just lay my problem out flat

#

so I have this exercise

#

but I also have learned that finite sets are closed

#

I feel as though this exercise contradicts the closedness of finite sets

#

because they don't contain all of their limit points

#

the definition of "limit point" I am working with is that

p is a limit point of A if every neighbourhood of p contains of a point of A other than p itself

#

but if A is finite, like a singleton, surely it cannot contain a point outside of the single point itself

#

and yet I've learnt that a singleton is closed

#

am I mixing up definitions or something here?

torn sorrel
#

Does a singleton set have any limit point which is not contained in set?

#

We don't have to worry about elements of set being limit points

torn sorrel
#

Def says that

#

If A has any limit point

#

It should be in A

grim sparrow
#

no?

#

that's not what it says, does it?

#

take X = R and A = (0,1). then p = 1 is a limit point, but it is not in A

torn sorrel
#

Yea then

#

(0,1) is not closed

grim sparrow
#

right

#

but I'm still confused

torn sorrel
grim sparrow
#

singletons are closed, but how do they contain their limit points?

torn sorrel
#

What are their limit points?

#

Do they have any?

grim sparrow
#

no, they don't

torn sorrel
#

Then

#

Can we say that

#

They contain all their limit points

grim sparrow
#

so they contain no limit points, and thus contain all of them pandathink

#

Yea

#

hey, can someone help with question 8?

trim joltBOT
thick idol
#

this is what ive done so far

#

correct me if ive done anything wrong pls

#

im not sure

hallow kite
#

what's g'(x)? you'll probably need that if you want to find g'(1)

thick idol
#

yea but im having trouble finding g'(x)

hallow kite
#

what do you think it should be

thick idol
#

or just g(x) itself

hallow kite
#

they give you g(x)?

#

so you just differentiate using power rule and chain rule and stuff

thick idol
#

OHHHHH

#

WAIT

#

but what about when it comes to differentiating that f(x) inside g(x)?

#

do i juust ignore it

hallow kite
#

no

#

when you calculate g'(x), it'll include f(x) and f'(x)

#

and since you want to find g'(1), you need f(1) and f'(1)

#

which you have

#

i mean if you differentiate g(x) first by using the power rule, you get 3/2 (2x + f(x))^(1/2), right?

thick idol
#

yes

hallow kite
#

but then you also need to do chain rule

#

so you multiply that by d/dx (2x + f(x))

#

which is 2 + f'(x)?

#

so combining all of that, you get g'(x) = 3/2 (2x + f(x))^(1/2) * (2 + f'(x))?

#

and evaluating this at 1, you have f(1) and f'(1)

thick idol
#

can i just use this rule U^n= n∙U^n-1∙U'

hallow kite
#

yes, that's exactly the rule i used

#

where u is some other function of x

#

u = 2x + f(x), n = 3/2

#

here

thick idol
#

so i just replace

#

x with 1 here

hallow kite
#

yes

thick idol
#

and i alr have f'(1)

it can be simplified to 3 + 3/2 f'(x) but at this point you should really just plug in 1

ohh yea my bad i wrote (2∙f(x)) on my paper i forgot the +

#

is the answer 27/4?

I asked this before but my chat closed.
I’m confused how to do this 🥲🥲🥲

blazing meadow
#

m1=m4?

zinc raft
#

Oh yeah that’s true

#

But idk what m1 is

blazing meadow
#

then m1 is twice as m3

#

remember that all angles add up to 360

zinc raft
#

So do I make an equation or smt?

blazing meadow
#

yeah, an equation is a great idea

zinc raft
#

Idk what variable to put

#

It will equal 360 right

#

Idk

blazing meadow
#

give me a sec

#

m1 = 2(m3)

#

m2 = m3 + 20

#

m1 +m2 + m3 +m4 = 360

#

since m1 = m4

#

then 2 m1 + m2 + m3 = 360

#

give me a sec

zinc raft
#

Oh uh

#

Okay

blazing meadow
#

is this problem related to equation systems of three variables?

This is geometry

#

I'd like to understand how to determine if a Critical Point found using Lagrange multipliers is a max/min on an unbounded restriction.

Example problem

f(x, y) = e^xy
Restriction: x^3+y^3=16

Using Lagrange Theorem I arrive at one Critical Point at (2,2). How can I prove this is a min/max since the restriction isn't bounded and thus weierstrass theorem can't be used?

atomic crow
#

$f(x,y) = e^{xy}$

solid kilnBOT
atomic crow
#

$Restriction: x^3+y^3 = 16$

solid kilnBOT
wanton rune
#

note x^3+y^3=16 implies -x<y

#

and that x^3+y^3=16 has a slant asymptote of y=-x

atomic crow
#

does it though

#

okay yeah

#

I mean, I can graph this and im pretty convinced (2,2) is a max

#

but I have no theory to back that claim

wanton rune
#

which means the end behavior of e^(xy) given this restriction will be 0 on both negative and positive infinity

#

it could help do to just do a substitution

atomic crow
#

I could parametrize the restriction

#

and thus simplify this to a 1 variable analysis problem

#

but I don't think that's the gist of it, also it involves a lot more calculations

#

finding the roots of e^(x*(16-x^3)^1/3))

#

seems tedious

#

I don't think I can do this in an exam

#

So from a multi-variable standpoint, using Lagrange to find the critical points

#

is there anything I can do to confirm (2,2) is a min/max ?

#

I understand your reasoning, im not sure if its enough as formal proof

atomic crow
wanton rune
#

yeah. I was thinking of the single variable case

atomic crow
#

Yeah, also in this example parametrization is possible, but its not clear that would be the case

#

for any arbitrary unbounded restriction

#

for bounded restrictions, I just use weierstrass theorem

#

and I'm pretty sure I can't simply use the 2nd derivative criteria

#

in fact, the Hessian for e^xy is Indeterminate at (2,2) which indicates a Saddle point

#

yet Im pretty sure its a max

wanton rune
#

thats only for checking without the restraint...

#

without any restraint e^(xy) has no max or min..

atomic crow
#

yeah, exactly

#

well, it has to be a saddle because the gradient has to be zero

#

but other than that no info

wanton rune
#

I can't really think of anything beyond changing to a single variable yeah :3

atomic crow
#

D:

wanton rune
#

i think you may be able to do something with this additional constraint though (y+x>0)

#

implied from x^3+y^3=16

atomic crow
#

how does an additional constraint help

#

googling I Found this but noway I understand why its valid

wanton rune
#

oh wait. You can note that if x<0, y>0(if in second quadrant), then e^(xy) will be less than or equal to 1, and same for x>0, y<0 (fourth quadrant). So you know the maximum must be achieved in the first quadrant, as it contains all values where e^(xy)>=1

atomic crow
#

you're saying for any (x,y) combination in 2nd quadrant, e^xy <= 1

wanton rune
#

yes!

atomic crow
#

why is this?

wanton rune
#

well, think about how the y and x values are restricted

#

x is forced to be less than or equal to 0

#

and y is forced to be greater than or equal to 0

#

if xy=k what will the value of k be (more importantly, the SIGN)

atomic crow
#

yeah it has to be negative

wanton rune
#

nonpositive

atomic crow
#

yeah

#

<=0

wanton rune
#

which implies e^xy<=1

#

same case for fourth quadrant

#

so you can restrict to the case of the first quadrant,

#

then apply extreme value theorem

#

since you have two endpoints

atomic crow
#

hmm

#

I would need to find the extremes which would be

#

the borders of the first quadrant

#

x=0 and y=0

wanton rune
#

no?

#

you want the restriction to apply

#

x^3+y^3=16

#

so let x=0, what does that make y, this gives you the y-axis endpoint

atomic crow
#

yeah, that's what I meant

wanton rune
#

then do the same for y

atomic crow
#

so given those border values and the critical point foun

#

we should be able to establish if its a min or max

wanton rune
#

mhm

atomic crow
#

Im still not sold because

#

while we've restricted the curve to a "segment" of a curve" idk how to call this

wanton rune
#

yes

#

a segment, compact segment

atomic crow
#

suppose (0,a) is 1 endpoint

#

and (b,0) is the other one

#

how can we be sure that among all points on the curve x^3+y^3=16 limited to that segment

#

What I mean to say is, it feels like we're using Bolzano Theorem from single variable calculus

#

but we're on a R2 compact domain

wanton rune
atomic crow
#

What I mean to say is that

#

we know (2,2) belongs to the segment and is a critical point

wanton rune
#

yes

atomic crow
#

how can we be sure that just by checking F(2,2) F(0,a) and F(b,0)

#

we can deduce if (2,2) is a min or a max

wanton rune
#

because we've limited to this segment, constrainted to it...

atomic crow
#

we know outside this segment, the value is lower than F(2,2)

wanton rune
atomic crow
#

K being here a compact subset

#

of R2

#

which is the segment of the curve

#

hmm

wanton rune
#

yes

atomic crow
#

okay, so

#

this is like a single variable calculus problem then

#

once we've established a compact set

#

okay here is the real question, how do we know

#

there is no other point that is higher/lower than our critical point candidate

#

in the segment

#

im trying to connect the dots 😛 thanks for the help btw

wanton rune
#

in this constrainted subset we have determined, the two endpoints of this subset, and a critical point within this subset. These are the only candidates that can be maximums or minimums

wanton rune
#

fermat's theorem

#

extreme value tells you existence, fermat's theorem tells you where

atomic crow
#

hmm okay

#

even then, the endpoints couldn't be absolute min/max either

#

because they would've appeared when doing Lagrange Multipliers

wanton rune
#

yes

#

that is also one way to think about it

atomic crow
#

alright, so basically the way to tackle this

#

is to bound your unbounded restriction

#

and justify why we can do so

wanton rune
#

yes

atomic crow
#

in this case, every other value outside this segment makes e^xy <= e^2*2

#

because e^2*2 = f(2,2) >= 1

#

1

#

well lets hope one can always find a way to bound it(?

#

alright, thanks for the help man

#

really appreciate it

#

Hello

trim joltBOT
cosmic gate
#

I was wondering what the notation R(R)

#

implied

#

the lecturer referred to it as a all real valued function over r

#

what exactly does real valued functions over r mean

#

does real valued function over C make sense then

hallow kite
#

i believe it refers to f:R -> R

#

as in functions that take in real numbers as inputs and output real numbers

#

R(C) makes sense as well, f:C -> R as functions that map complex inputs to real outputs

cosmic gate
#

ah okay okay

#

so real valued just meant the range is real

thanks so much

Hi, did I solve this task correctly? We need to find the roots of the equation

split chasm
#

ur not quite done yet

#

for equations like these (with square roots)
extraneous (solutions) may be generated in the squaring process
you should check whether they're both valid

worldly wing
#

Look at the second line, you have $x-3=2\sqrt{x}$

solid kilnBOT
#

kheerii

worldly wing
#

What does that tell you about x-3?

lament flax
#

I moved 3 from the right side of the equation to the left

split chasm
#

lets ask this in another way

#

what's the range of the square root function

lament flax
lament flax
split chasm
#

what sort of values can come out from plugging numerical values of x into
sqrt(x)

split chasm
#

half as much of what

vagrant prism
lament flax
vagrant prism
#

okay great, now considering that those are the acceptable values for sqrt, what can the result be?

#

hint: start with the ||fact that the smallest nonnegative number is 0, what's sqrt(0)||?

vagrant prism
cosmic meadow
#

You can expose extraneous solutions immediately by factoring

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Do you know that the result of sqrt of a number is always positive, right?

#

I will show you how to solve this without squaring both sides

cosmic meadow
#

Ok so factor x -2sqrtx -3

#

@lament flax do you know how to factor this over reals?

brittle barn

(hint: consider $u=\sqrt x$)

#

kinda, it just mean no $\sqrt{-1}$s

solid kilnBOT
#

brittle barn
#

(assuming your n is "and"?)

cosmic meadow
#

Start by replacing x with (sqrt(x))^2

lament flax
brittle barn
#

!?

#

x/2 !?

lament flax
# brittle barn x/2 !?

if you extract a number from under the square root, you get half of that number, right?

cosmic meadow
lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

But u dont simplify it

#

U let like that

#

After that find a common factor between (sqrt(x))^2 ans -2sqrt(x)

#

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

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

cosmic meadow
#

I wrote like this in case you did not understand it

#

@lament flax

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Start factoring out sqrt(x)

brittle barn
#

If we let $u=\sqrt x$, then we have $u^2-2u-3$. Can you factor that?

solid kilnBOT
#

nameless individual

lament flax
brittle barn
#

nice

cosmic meadow
#

You can do also directly

#

$(\sqrt{x})^2 - 2 \sqrt{x} -3 = (\sqrt{x}-1)^2 -3 -1$

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

cosmic meadow
#

$(\sqrt{x}-1)^2 -3 - 1 = (\sqrt{x}-1)^2 - 4$

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

cosmic meadow
#

Can you continue from here?

brittle barn
#

(theres really no difference, one is easier to understand, the other is more notationally compact and usually prefered)

cosmic meadow
#

Yes i know, I just wanted him to learn a method he probably doesn’t know

#

As more tools he has

#

The better to solve a problem

#

Without memorizing

#

Or if he gets stucked he has other tools to use

#

@lament flax did you factor it? Show your result please

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

No, do not try to get x now

#

Just factor from here

cosmic meadow
#

You can rewrite 4 like 2^2

#

$(\sqrt{x}-1)^2 - 4 = (\sqrt{x}-1)^2 - (2^2)$

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

cosmic meadow
#

And now u have a difference of squares

#

Do u know how to factor difference of squares?

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

No, just factoring for now

#

Do u know to factor a^2 - b^2?

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Perfect

#

Here a = sqrt(x) -1
And b = 2

cosmic meadow
#

From factoring the right side

lament flax
solid kilnBOT
cosmic meadow
#

Perfect

#

Now

#

-1-2 = -3 and 1+2 = 1 so

#

$(\sqrt{x} -1 -2)(\sqrt{x} - 1 +2) = (\sqrt{x} -3)(\sqrt{x} +1)$

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

cosmic meadow
#

Right?

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Ok

#

That is equal the original x -2sqrt(x) -3

#

So we can equal our factored form to 0

#

Do it and solve for me please

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

$(\sqrt{x} -3)(\sqrt{x} +1)=0$

solid kilnBOT
#

Samuel

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

You have a product

#

AB = 0

#

For this to happen

#

Either A = 0

#

Or B = 0

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

We are almost finished, tell me what i do now

brittle barn
cosmic meadow
#

We are not doing anything with matrix now

#

The context is very important

#

And here the context is clear

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Either sqrt(x) -3 = 0

#

Or sqrt(x) + 1 = 0

#

Solve this two equations

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Lets start with the first

#

Sqrt(x) = 3

#

Sqrt(x) = sqrt(3^2) = sqrt(9); x = 9

#

Correct now the second

#

Sqrt(x) = -1

#

What is the range of sqrt(x)?

#

Can the square root of a number ever be negative?

cosmic meadow
#

Then u can immediately say this second equation has no solutions

#

So you stay only with x=9

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

When did i write 3

#

Oh sorry

#

My bad

#

Just a typo

#

Fixed

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

It was just a typo i fixed it

lament flax
solid kilnBOT
cosmic meadow
#

Care with the writing

#

Looks like u are multiplying in the end

solid kilnBOT
#

nameless individual

cosmic meadow
lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

You can solve however you want, like you did was ok

#

But you need to put a restriction

brittle barn
#

there is never an only way to solve any reasonable task
you can always do a shopping spree before, after, or while you do it

cosmic meadow
#

You need to specify that x-3>=0

#

So when u get your two solutions

#

You get x_1 = 9

#

Amd x_2 = 1

#

When u check ur restriction

#

x-3 >= 0

#

U can realize that x=1 fails here

#

So that cannot be a solution

lament flax
cosmic meadow
#

Exactly, although i think u meant 9-3=6

Hi can someone check two of my answers?

brittle barn
#

looks right!?

formal sage
#

They seem to be right

#

Except that I found the last x to be positive 2/5, not negative

#

Nvm

#

Mb, it's correct

cinder lark
#

okay perfect thanks a ton!

drifting rose
#

could anyone check wheather this is right?

drifting rose
#

this is the initial question if you want to know initial condition and such

#

bc when I checked it was wrong and Idk where I went wrong

#

if this is too much could I ask help what would be the inital when t=0

viscid flower
#

what is with that proportion you have

drifting rose
#

proportion?

#

what do you mean by that?

viscid flower
#

5/5220?

#

is that what it is?

drifting rose
#

yes

#

5 S

viscid flower
#

im calling it a proportion i guess because that part represents like

drifting rose
#

thats a 5 and an S next to each other

#

soz if they looked like 55

viscid flower
#

the proportion of the air in the room that is cleaned

#

its like constant effort cleaning

#

but 5/5220 seems low

#

because the room is only 87 m^3

#

and our air conditioner can clean 5 of that

drifting rose
#

don't fight the logic of it

#

5/5220 is correct

viscid flower
#

👀

drifting rose
#

theres check boxes under the question that helps you check so the red is 100% correct

viscid flower
drifting rose
viscid flower
#

that makes no sense to me but okay

drifting rose
#

see?

#

anyways wht did you get?

viscid flower
#

5/87

#

,calc 87^3

solid kilnBOT
#

Result:

6.58503e+5
drifting rose
#

because I think I'm getting it wrong because of the inital condition

viscid flower
#

why is 5220

drifting rose
#

oh bc in the quesiton is 87 cubic metres per minute

#

I converted it to per seconds

viscid flower
#

MINUTE

drifting rose
#

bc 0.06mg/s

viscid flower
#

ur right

#

okay

#

man how stupid ur in ode and they still have you screwing with units

#

anyways

drifting rose
#

idk man

#

it's annoying

viscid flower
#

right okay

#

lets call the ODE if youre okay with this

#

$S' + RS = T$

drifting rose
#

wait I know how to calculate ODE

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

drifting rose
#

Could I see what you did

viscid flower
#

i can yea

drifting rose
#

or your final answer

#

(just to make sure)

#

THEN you can explain

viscid flower
drifting rose
#

or do you wanna explain

viscid flower
#

$S(t) = \frac TR + C e^{Rt}$

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

viscid flower
#

T is 0.06 R is 5/5220

#

we have $S(0) = 0$

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

drifting rose
#

ok

viscid flower
#

so $C = - \frac TR$

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

drifting rose
#

this is VERY abridged but I get it lol

viscid flower
#

i can un abridge if you want

#

but assuming youve solved some of these before

#

u know how it goes

#

$S(t) = \frac TR \qty( 1 - e^{Rt})$ is final

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

drifting rose
#

yea its fine

#

I just want to know where I got it wrong

#

oh.. its subtracted

viscid flower
#

it is

drifting rose
#

did I miss a minus in my working out?

viscid flower
#

the constant on the exponential needs to eat the constant of integration

#

to make the IC 0

#

sorry, i said that wrong

#

the constants need to eat each other at t=0

#

so you expect one to be negative

drifting rose
#

oh I see

viscid flower
#

it can help to assign variables like i did just a suggestion but also i get it

#

so you have less annoying nonsense floating around

drifting rose
#

yea lol

#

also do most ODE's just come out as that format

viscid flower
#

hmm?

drifting rose
#

the T/R(1-...

#

what you wrote (to lazy to write it all lol)

viscid flower
#

sure so, this is a first order linear ode

#

and they can be solved generically, i believe

#

by generically i mean like, like you have a quadratic formula for ax^2+bx+c=0

#

we have that for $y' + p(t)y = f(t)$

solid kilnBOT
#

jan Niku

viscid flower
#

and yea, its exponentials

drifting rose
#

I see

viscid flower
#

does that answer your question?

drifting rose
#

yep

#

thanks for the help Niku

viscid flower
#

np

drifting rose
#

I saw the problem in my original and fixed it CC:

#

again, thank you for the help

heavy belfry
#

Anyone know how to solve this x^x=2^(1/x)

forest terrace
#

I think you have to use the Lambert-W function

heavy belfry
#

No idea what that is

forest terrace
#

do you know what ln(x) is

#

ln(x) is the inverse of e^x

#

$x = e^y \implies y = ln(x)$

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

if f(x) is the lambert w function,

#

$x = ye^y \implies y = f(x)$

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

because your problem has x terms in the exponent

#

$x^x = 2^{\frac{1}{x}} \therefore x \ln(x) = \frac{1}{x} \ln(2) \therefore x^2 \ln(x) = \ln(2) \therefore \frac12 x^2 \ln{(x^2)} = \ln(2) \therefore x^2 \ln{(x^2)} = 2 \ln(2) \therefore x^2 e^{x^2} = 2 e^2$

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

so then x^2 = 2

#

actually you don't need lambert w

trim joltBOT
#

@heavy belfry Has your question been resolved?

heavy belfry
#

Then you are saying there is only 1 solution?

heavy belfry
forest terrace
solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

heavy belfry
forest terrace
#

Let $g(x) = x e^x$

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

Then from the last line, $g(x^2) = g(2)$

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

This means x^2 = 2 is a solution

#

There could be other solutions, but as g(x) is an increasing function in the range x > 0, any other solutions would require x < 0

#

So x = root 2 is the only positive solution

#

Showing there are no negative solutions might be a bit harder

#

For negative numbers, $x^x$ is only real for integers

solid kilnBOT
#

oscoface

forest terrace
#

And 2^(1/x) is real for all negative numbers

#

So any negative solution would have to be an integer

heavy belfry
#

Thanks for all the help 🙂

Let $f(x)=x^2-5x+6$ and $A=\begin{pmatrix}
2 & 0 & 1\
2 & 1 & 3\
1 & -1 & 0
\end{pmatrix}$, then find $f(A)$

solid kilnBOT
#

pun pun

wraith hinge
#

how can i do this using its characteristic equation

supple copper
#

What is the characteristic polynomial of A?

wraith hinge
#

yea hold up i remember i found that this morning

#

lemme go find that

supple copper
#

The main thing here is that A satisfies its own characteristic equation

#

If p(λ) is the characteristic polynomial of A, then p(A) = 0

wraith hinge
#

-λ^3+3λ^2-4λ+3=0

supple copper
#

Huh?

wraith hinge
#

what 😭

supple copper
#

Oh right

#

This is Cayley-Hamilton theorem

wraith hinge
#

yea

#

isnt that what it is?

#

so that gives us $A^3=3A^2-4A+3I$

solid kilnBOT
#

pun pun

supple copper
#

Maybe you want to factorise (x-2)(x-3)

#

And plug (A-2I)(A-3I)

wraith hinge
#

wait im confused
