Find the inverse of the function
y = x^4, x∈(0;∞)
y = x^4
x = y^4
y = 4thpowerrootx
now i found the inverse
I don’t understand where x∈(0;infinity) comes into play, what am I to do with that
@rugged latch Has your question been resolved?
Thats the range of your inverse function

Why is it $mg\sin{\theta} a$ not $mg\sin{\theta} b$
Average Calc Student
Trying to find when the object would start falling
nvm
Plz help ):
Moment = F x distance from center
Distance from centre is a
but its also b cuz the length of the base is 2b
red point is given by -ai hat -b jhat , force at red point is given by - umg costheta i hat
cross product will give you ?
If you change your pfp you will have aura debt forever
also you need to simplify it
nvm
just simplify it
by writing sin theta in terms of a and b
suggest a theme and i will work on it
Your pfp os goated
wdym
Do you know the definition of cross product
yes
Use that
@limpid dawn
this is wrong, right ?
we should have a on both sides and thus they get cancelled
I dont even know whars going on here
idk why
Why would it be not that can you tell your perspective
i got mgsintheta x b from this
Is this all there is
the angle that makes the box tip over
olny under influence of friction force and gravity
@spiral ocean Has your question been resolved?
you are taking this as your coordinate system right ?
Yes
Wdym
After cross product, i removed the minus and compare the magnitude
If the one going clockwise is bigger then the block will tip
And fall
It's been 2 years since I touched physics
and i got mgsin(x)(a) - F_s(mgcos(x)(b) = 0
do you have any resources with you
I try to find any resources
Okie
I don’t understand the last part
Why is it the normal force not the friction
@still rose
@wraith hinge
Friction = u x normal force
u is coefficient of friction
Wait up calc 3 victim and average calc student are different !

Hey! Im doing complex analysis and I just feel like im missing something when solving a real integral by substitutions and so on
Here is the question
and my very wrong solution is
Now i know there are MULTIPLE errors in my solution, but my thinking was using homotopy, seeing that the upper bound of the integral is 0 and getting 0 as an answer. This did not work because the answer is first of all not 0. Second, Im pretty sure i pass by a singularity or something which means that the whole idea fails
And i am now unsure of what i should do. Find a primitive to the complex function?
@shrewd wraith Has your question been resolved?
Idk anything about complex analysis but i like you handwriting
Thank you! hahahha
Since the block is moving in the direction of OA,the direction of friction will be opposite to it
AO
Yeah
This is not phrased properly
Like if the block were moving down, but it's speed is decreasing
Then the direction of frictionAl force will be along OA

y = 6x – 1
how do i identify ordered pairs
Do you know what is an ordered pair?
@cedar jetty Has your question been resolved?
Do you see that there will be infinitely many ordered pairs satisfying this?
@cedar jetty
The locus of these points will form a straight line
ye
Just put some random values of x
And find the corresponding vals of y
And that's your ordered pai
I recommend numbers like -1, 0, 1

alright, lets get some basics established then
$$\int_{a}^{b} A{f(x) dx}=A\int_{a}^{b} {f(x) dx}$$ where A is a constant
$$\int_{a}^{b} {f(x) dx}=-\int_{b}^{a} {f(x) dx}$$
$$\int_{a}^{b} {f(x) dx}=\int_{a}^{c} {f(x) dx}+\int_{c}^{b} {f(x) dx}$$ where $a<c<b$

what does the comma in 1 1/4 .0, 2+ 5/6 mean
oh is the comma decimal point
Yeah
Wdym exactly?
For A I got 7/12, don't know how to get B tho.
okay first convert the fractions from a mixed to an improper fraction
Yeah I suck at math
don't worry about it
you will get it over time
B= 5/4 × 1/5 + 5/6
You mean this?
yes
@proper sluice can you explain to me what was the point of those numbers here.
2-6:3+4×2 and the rest
What was being calculated exactly? And how does that add up to -7/19
is that supposed to be the answer?
👌
It's ½×4/3-7/6, and that's
yes
1/2
One sec
👌
130/120? It can't be that big
/:10?
yes
So A is 1/2 and B is 13/12.
A+B=38/24?
yes
A-B= -14/24?
Sorry but how does this end up as -7/19?
this should be negative
True

so in convolution ∫ f(τ)h(t-τ)dτ , when we shift the h(τ) function , why don't we substitute the value into the h(τ)
?
what do you mean by "shift h(tau)"
can you write out on paper what you mean
using equations and such
when we delay the function h(τ) to evaluate the convolution over a region.
wot
suppose we've got the x(t) function (the red one) and the other function which is the h(t)
wut
what does your picture have to do with your question
which one is f and which is h
and are you plotting h(t - tau) or h(tau)
the trinagle function is the h(t-tau) and the constant line is the x(t)
yes that's what's happening visually
h(t-tau) is a different shifted function of tau for different t
,tex .horz trans
riemann
yes , but mathematically speaking it doesn't make any sense to me.
did you read this
#help-38 message
because we don't plug the value into back to the h(τ), we're just saying h(τ-tau).
i idid
what is "the value"
did
suppose we shift the h(t) function by 2 right?
we're not plugging the value 2 into the h(t), we're just leaving it as it is, we're just saying h(t-τ)dτ instead of h(2-τ)dτ
(f * h)(2) = int f(tau) h(2-tau) dtau yes
oh so we substitute it?
do you know what integration is?
yes the right side is a function of t
the integral will depend on the value of t
hence why the left side is a function of t
and in particular, t=2 as well
@stray nova Has your question been resolved?
yes why
ok ,so we plug the shifted value into the g(t-τ) right?
the right side has g(t-tau) yes
g(t-tau) is a shift AND reflection
,tex .horz scale
b = -1
actually that doesn't help
g(-tau) as a function of tau is a reflection about 0 of g(tau)
so its going be h(2-τ)dτ
yes ik that
is this correct?
what is "it"
im just asking if we shift the h value by 2 then the convolution integrla is going be h(2-τ)dτ
the convolution function on the left evaluated at t=2 tells you that you have to shift g(t-tau) to g(2-tau) yes

is the slope not 10
,w plot y=5|2x-3|
Does that matter?
what does your question have to do with slope
Which 1.5?
comes from setting y=0
Oh that
wym
why is it 1.5
and not 3
because doesnt the inside of the | | determine the x axis
to find f(x) you can use slope
what i did was start at (3,0) and go to -1 at a slope of 10
You have the rule given, what gives in doing that way?
?
??
aslan i have to call you out, the way you teach is very belittling
you're very rude
How so?
you tend to be aggresivly confrontational and expect people without the experience you have in math to get it right away
Not all?
But you do
is that not the slope?
we dont have the value of x
That's your function
Do you see the table of values in the image?
The value of x is what is in the top row of the table
absolutely not
that's what ive done and it's worked though
got lucky then
i forgot i could plug it in
not really
or it was a different question and you weren't paying attention
I mean you could use the slope, but that requires getting the point where y=0 correct
which you didn't do, and so your method did not serve you well
Im assuming theyve only dealt with lines before
^
maybe thats why?
yes
dont yall read #rules
expect that people have no experience in math and build from there
Car be nice too? were chatting through text
be kind
im being plenty nice, calling out people when they're in the wrong is not being mean
it's trying to have people see their own faults so they dont hurt peoples feelings when trying to teach them something new yk

yall are just bullying people that are at a lower level of math so yo ucan feed your ego
I'm sorry
Car, if it may not be obvious, context is vital, we had no idea what was going through your mind when you posted the question
@violet elbow keep in mind that texting does not always translate intentions well
Also keep in mind that everyone here isn't necessarily a native english speaker
I am saying that i'd appreciate if this community was a nice place where the teachers, who are more knowledgeable, would follow the rules where it clearly states that they should be kind to the learner so that they can have an enojyable experience learning and arent turned away from math
because math is a beautiful subject that so many dislike because teachers make them feel stupid for not understanding
i hope i got that across alright
so when im in a situation where it feels like others could interprit something as rude or making them feel stupid, as one of the few very knowledgeable, and ACTIVE teachers in this server, i just wanted to give insight as a student and say how it couldve come across
so they arent turned away

How do i find a range and domain of an equation
Domain and range are of a function, not of an equation
I'm assuming you only know up to real numbers, denoted by R
Take f, can you put any value x from R into f? In other words, does f(x) give you an actual value for any x in R?
@glass summit Has your question been resolved?
I keep re reading this and cant figure out what you mean
We learned it a different way, I know that, but I have trouble remembering it so idk it fully
Does f(0) make sense? As in, is it a value?
Yes
Sorry, I was busy
I was gonna ask chat gpt then realized I need to know this later on
Does f(1) make sense?
Yes
Does f(pi)?
Any real number, yes that would work
So that's the domain
I don’t think I can list f(R) as the domain
No, it's just R
I don’t think I could do that either
Nel
Think so
This is perfectly fine to write as a domain
But if you're asked for an interval instead, you can write (-inf, +inf)
I don’t think I could put that 😭
$(-\infty, +\infty)$

I'm looking at a particular example for testing whether one set is a subset of another. Where A = {1} and B = {1, {1}}. Now I understand that {{1}} is not the same as {1} but I can't put into words why. Is it because the 1 in set B is a subset of a subset? Trying to conceptialize.
{1} is a box that contains the number 1
{{1}} is a box that contains {1}
so it contains a box that contains the number 1
the element of the set {{1}} is not the number 1
it's the box that contains it
think of all the boxes as closed
and the elements of a box as "if I open the box, what can I reach inside"
Primarily this, I don't understand how A is a Subset of B but that A is also a proper Subset of B
Because how can A be a subset of B if everything in A isn't in B
I'm gonna go back to my analogy
think of all the sets as closed boxes
and the elements of a set as "if I open the box, what can I reach inside"
what's inside my set A?
I open the box, and I find the element 1
what's inside my set B?
I open the box, and I find:
- the element 1
- a box that contains the element 1
But the second box or set isn't defined with a letter but it doesn't matter.
Can A = {1, 1, 1} and B = {1, 1} and not be equal
because i'd find 3 elements of 1
vs 2 elements of 1
sets are made of distinct elements
if you add copies of something you already have in the box
they don't matter
if you have multiple of the same, they condense into 1
A = {1, 1, 1} = {1}
B = {1,1} = {1}
A = B
but can you see why B in this question isn't subject to that "copies" rule
In the example provided, is this a case of just a bad example?
As I assumed if A is a subset of B that they were equal
because a proper subset A is not equal to B
but in the example I gave it said A is a subset of B and A is a proper subset of B
which contradicts 1 {1} and 1
no, a subset can either EQUAL or NOT EQUAL the bigger set
when you have a subset
it's either:
- the big set itself
- or a proper subset
So subset is more ambigious
$A\subseteq B$ means either $A=B$ or $A\subset B$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
I'm thinking of a superset then and misidentifying them
So super set is when they are equal no matter what
rafilou is not not born in 2003
it's just $B\subseteq A$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
so same
when you have "A supset B"
you either have A = B or A strict/proper superset of B
Oh,. this entire time I was assuming that each subset had one defintion
but it's more ambiguous where each different subset has 2 defintiions
Where a subset means that set a and b are the same, or some part of A is in B.
uuuh not exactly
A subset B means that A is some part of B, whether some smaller part or the entirety of B
when you said "some part of A is in B"
I'm saying Subset C_ is either A=B or A partially equals B
Or like all of A fits into B even if not all of it
all of A fits into B, whether there is wiggle room left or not
"all of A fits into B" also works if A = B
all of A fits into B, whether there is wiggle room left or not
just so confusing because mentally it's hard to understand that
A {1, 2, 3} and B {1, 2, 3, 4} is A = B
unless you're referring to if A = {1} and B = {1} then all of A fits into B
here we have A subset B because all of A fits into B, even if there is '4' as wiggle room left
here we have A subset B, even if when we do fit A into B there is no wiggle room left
So some sets can be proper subsets and subsets at the same time
if you're a proper subset, then you are by definition a subset
if you are equal, then by definition you are a subset
here's why keeping the ambiguity is important
when you will want to prove two sets A and B are equal
sometimes the easiest way to do it is this way
you will show A fits into B
and you will show B fits into A
if $A\subseteq B$ and $B\subseteq A$, then $A=B$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
But in this instance even though a is subset of B they're not equal. So it would not work in this example/you couldn't prove it correct
you could prove A is a subset of B but not B is a subset of A
Unless you already know the A = B and you go through and show your proof
Like this correct?
yeah sure
but for example
if you wanted to show A = B here
a good way is to show A subset B and B subset A
Well thank you, my study time for the night is over I have to move on. I appreciate your help conceptializing it. I think I understand it better now, tommorow I will move on to proving and disproving subset relations.

hey
is x^b * x^a = x^b*a
no
no
is it +
yep
so x^a * x^b = x^a+b
Yea
(-1)^(1/3) = -1
Because (-1) * (-1) * (-1) = (-1)
what's (-1)^(1/2)
That's not a real number
?
yeah just not sqr root
how do you cross multiply
wait
when is cross multiplying valid?
how do you divide exponents over each other when they're fractions?
can you give an example of what you mean here?
u^(3/8) / u^(2/3)
then you would subtract
=u^(3/8-2/3)
ah
so multiplying is adding
dividing is subtracting
squaring is multiplying
and square roooting is dividing
when you have a root on the bottom can it be simplified as a square on the top
Think about it like this might be helpful. If I have a fraction for example x/y. If I want y in the numerator I take y to the power of negative 1
In this case its to the power or 2/3 or -2/3 on the top
i said 12
m = 12
because of the rule i said above
which is untrue ig
let me show my work rq
@violet elbow Has your question been resolved?
so what do you think @iron vapor
how then
wouldnt that equal the same thing
No
Oh
Did you raise it to the 5th power?
mb
The mistake is that you raise both sides
So the other side is p^(5m)
!noping
Please do not ping individual helpers unprompted.
No
explain
How'd you remove the root on p^9
took away one of the -1 for p^9 with the additional 5 given from the other power
No? That's not how this works
!noping
Please do not ping individual helpers unprompted.
tgen help
instead of just saying "that's not it"
cause that's not really helping

Bit confused on how to approach this question
I created the linear transformation that represents X1->X2 and Y1 -> Y2
T([x,y]^t) = [x+1, y+1]^t
oh srry
I am stuggling with this, i am in 8th grade

sure is
do you have to use contradiction
Yes
sob
I know it's easy using DP, but c'est la vie
okay, so give me the formal negation of the statement
i can help you translate the original statement to something formal if you want.
We wan to prove that if $n \in \Z$ and $n$ is odd, then $n^2$ is odd.We also wish to prove this by contradiction. So we thus wish to prove that the statement if $n$ is odd, then $n^2$ is even is false. As $n$ is odd, it is of the form $n=2q+1$. so $n^2= 2(2q^2+2q)+1$, which is odd. Which is a contradiction, thus our assumption is wrong, $n^2$ must be even.
Veni, vidi, perii is not f(wai)
that's not the right statement
yes but also there is a universal quantifier at the beginning
the contrapositive (i think this is the word in english)
oh true
In the begining
not contrapositive
What is the word?
contrapositive and negation are 2 different things
I don't mean to get involved too directly but does the end of the contradiction end up being an even quantity being equal to an odd quantity
My bad at english then, sorry
contrapositive is not q implies not p <=> p implies q
negation is just ~(bleh)
asking for myself
nah no worries
yeah in the one that i have in mind.
sweet
anyways. @marsh forum the negation of the statement would be "there exists an n such that n is odd and n^2 is even"
I've written that
okay great.
Is the rest of the proof fine?
so now, we are going to derive a contradiction based on the fact that there is some n such that n is odd and n^2 is even.
i really didn't read it, since I figured the entire proof was bsaed off a faulty assumption of what you thought the negation was.
ur concluding statement was flipped
if your assumption is wrong, then n^2 must be odd but u wrote even
it seems like your proof is just the direct proof buried in the language of contradiciton
I mean this problems is not something that anyone would ever want to prove by contradiction anyway
okay, here is a contradiction proof that I think you'll find pleasing (and is actually different from the direct proof one)
take n^2 - n
if n is odd and n^2 is even, what parity will n^2 - n be
odd
$n(n-1)$
Veni, vidi, perii is not f(wai)
odd
it's an odd x even
yeah this is one of the proofs of all time. of course i think doing it directly is better. I'm not sure what the constructivists think of this proof specifically
what other proof
the one that I had in mind was the one that I just walked through
I'm assuming you know how to show this directly
I do
so those are the two proofs that I have for this fact
I think the way I was doing it was also a contradiction disguised as a direct proof
you can mimic the classic proof here
Yeah
or you can use fundamental theorem of arithematic
if u want something a bit different that is
I too can open a lock with a jackhammer
We wish to prove this by contradiction, so we assume that $(2)^{\frac{1}{3}}$ is rational. so $(2)^{\frac{1}{3}}= \frac{p}{q}$, where p,q are co-prime. so $2q^3=p^3$. If $p,q$ are co prime \frac{p^3}{q^3}$ can't be an integer, so our initial assumption was wrong and $(2)^{\frac{1}{3}}$ is indeed not rational
@spiral kettle can I dm you the proof I had in mind for the first question? I don't wanna open a help channel for it and I also don't wanna take any space here.
👍

why can't p^3/q^3 be an integer.
you should use the fact that 2q^3 = p^3 at this point
we are going to conclude that p is even.
I;m sorry, I think I'll re-read this section and then get bakc to this
okay

Howdy, need some assistance with identifying a rational function from its graph. I think I have it mostly solved, but my answer isn't being accepted. Not sure what I'm missing.
I determined the x and y intercepts and the vertical asymptotes
x int @ (3, 0)
vertical asymptotes are -3 and 4```
Well think about f(0)
yeah, I then used that to solve for a
which i got as a stretch of 4, since f(0)=1
maybe i did an operation wrong tho
the equation i started with was
f(x)=a((x-3)/(x-4)(x+3))
i plugged in f(0)=1
got a((0-3)/(0-4)(0+3))
then that resolved to a(1/4)=1
muliplied both sides by 4 and a = 4
but 4((x-3)/(x-4)(x+3)) wasn't accepted
it looks very similar to me when i graphed it on desmos, so not sure if i'm missing something or if maybe i'm formatting it wrong
oh
it was a formatting error
i needed to distribute the denominator
cool thanks for your insight - it was right on.

Two planes are perpendicular if?
If their normal vectors are perpendicular
And if two vectors are perpendicular, their dot product is zero
perpendicular not parallel
Yea mb
Yep
Can I say are they perpendicular?
Yes
Because of this
I'm not able to answer this, it's too advanced for my skills 😢

A circus juggler performs an act with balls that he tosses with his right hand and catches with his left hand. Each ball is launched at an angle of $75^{\circ}$ and reaches a maximum height of 90 cm above the launching height. If it takes the juggler 0.2 s to catch with his left hand, pass it to his right hand, and toss it back into the air, what is the maximum number of balls he can juggle?
k
@spiral ocean Has your question been resolved?
you basically need to find the air time of the ball first
using the information given, just the angle and the maximum height
@spiral ocean Has your question been resolved?
nope
ok
0.2 is the time it takes to pass the ball

i need help
i dont understand how to get the square roots of decimals
hi
Okk
square root of a decimal number can be calculated by using the estimation method or the long division method .
wdym
Convert the decimal into p/q fraction and then take square root of numerator and denominator as they would be positive integers

i know the answer, but i'm not sure how to write the equation
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
write the number as xy
x,y belongs to [0,9]
so the number would be 10*x + y

what is the derivative of $\frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y}(y-3)$
wakamole
what is dx doing
wakamole
your first term looks wrong
finally i got $\frac{y-3}{6\sqrt{y}+\frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y} = -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y}$

but it is 1/3 sqrty
finally i got $\frac{y-3}{6\sqrt{y}+\frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y}} = -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y}$
bacc the sigma😔🤞

1/3 is just a factor
Btw bro what time is it for you?
like the 1/6 is correct somehow, but the sqrt(y) should be in the denominator (maybe you meant to do that)?
I need someone to teach me all of geometry by sunday
Bro is geometrymaxxing lmao
isnt that what i have
oh i did mean to do that
sry
here it is basically in the numerator
my latex
ok I see

I have to tutor someone on monday and i have never taken geometry a day in my life
left term the 1/3 sqrt(y) should be seperated by + sign
but the final i got is correct
in latex...
idk if it is actually correct though
bacc the sigma😔🤞
yeah i have that
You need f(y)?
Now you put them together
@hollow tangle
I mean from now it's algebra basically
i got. this.. the term on the right
well the first term on the right should also have sqrt(y) in numerator
idk how i got that looking at it now
,w D[sqrt(y)/3 * (y-3),y]
i asked wolfram it was horribly wrong for some reason
