your sketch looks incorrect to me, for one... should be a parabola opening upwards
this arithmetic looks very sus too
4/3 - 3...
@empty tulip Has your question been resolved?
So my sketch is wrong
yes
Ah okay
Apart from the sketch which I have fixed is the working correct?
I'll re add
but would suspect arithmetic to happen to you there as well

Hey
Can anyone help me at this:
Find the quantity of positive integers that do not belong to C = {ax + by | x, y โ N} for a, b โ N
I proved before that any number greater than ab - a - b belongs to it and that ab - a - b does not belong to it
But i really just kept staring this for a long time and i have no idea about what to try
are you given something about a and b?
Well, C is basically all ways to take a multiple of a plus a multiple of b.
Yeah indeed, its a linear combination between a and b
But non-negative variables only
Do you know about Bezout coefficients?
do you know the theorem that relates gcd(a,b) to linear combinations of that form?
I know about Bezout theorem idk if thats the same
Yeah
Well, the Bezout coefficients are where you have ax + by and that equals the GCD of a and b.
But that does not guarantee that the variables are non-negative does it?
x and y are constrained to be positive integers, though?
Non-negative
Anyways, how would it help?
OK, so you can factor the GCD out of a and out of b, right?
Because that would only be for 1 value of ax + by
Correct
Yeah the gcd must divide the other side
So, the answers will be multiples of the GCD.
Yeah
So, any nonmultiples of the GCDs aren't included in the set, obviously.
Indeed
So euler function of their gcd?
Plus other numbers of course
But for this part
Why?
Since its either a times something plus 0 or 0 plus b times something
Thats a way to get it right
Well, lcm(a, b) = ab/gcd(a, b).
Let's say we have 21 and 35 for a and b.
The GCD will be 7. The LCM will be 15.
If we factor out the GCD, we have 3 and 5.
2 * 3 + -1 * 5 = 1
Those are the Bezout coefficients there.
Now we can add 3 to the -1.
2 * 3 + 2 * 5 = 16.
This is one over the LCM.
Let's say we want to get 17.
4 * 3 + -2 * 5 = 2
We can add 3 to -2.
4 * 3 + 1 * 5 = 17.
Let's say we want to get 18.
6 * 3 + -3 * 5 = 3.
We can add 3 to -3.
6 * 3 + 0 * 5 = 18.
Let's say we want to get 19.
We can take 16 and add 1 to the first coefficient.
3 * 3 + 2 * 5 = 19.
And we can keep going like that.
So, anything above the LCM is in the set.
The question is what elements at or below the LCM are in the set?
Hmmm
How will the lcm be 15?
15.7 no?
No, that's their product.
Their product is 15.7.7
After you take the GCD out of a and b's factors, the product of the remaining factors is the LCM.
How is a multiple of 21 and 35 going to be 15
Hmm, one second.
Oh, right.
Yes, you're right.
You can do the same sort of thing with the LCM.
Alright, but how do u ensure you can get to 16, 17 and so on forever?
Can u still?
Instead of lcm we have the product of their coprime factors
2 * 21 + -1 * 35 = 7.
So for every number greater than or equal lcm/gcd we guarantee its in the set?
0 * 21 + 3 * 35 = 105
2 * 21 + 2 * 35 = 105 + 7
4 * 21 + 1 * 35 = 105 + 2*7
1 * 21 + 3 * 35 = 105 + 3*7
3 * 21 + 2 * 35 = 105 + 4*7
And so forth.
So, every multiple of the GCD that's the LCM or over is possible.
The question is what about the multiples of the GCD that are less than the LCM.

i have done the part A im looking forward to the part b and c so for part B i did like
sin(1/x) - cos(1/x)/x x > 0 and 0 , x < 0
is that looking fine
sure
maybe say for x > 0 and for x < 0 for clarity btw
true
that shows that the derivative is not continuous at x = 0
to show it's not differentiable you have to calculate the derivative from definition
right
so like derivative for x < 0 and x > 0 are not same
that implies at x = 0 its not differentiable
for this
f' = 2xcos(2/x) + 2sin(2/x) for x != 0
is the f' = 0 for x = 0?
how do i do the part D
for part D, you just show that the derivative is not equal to the limit of the derivative (or the limit DNE), as you would for any other function

okay, that's clear
x?
okay, noted
but why does the absolute value sign not matter here?
x^2 always positive?
exactly
yes
yes. precisely!
nice! would you be up to check out this problem with me?
similar concept I think
what's confusing me is the problem we just did together didn't use the Dominant Term Rule (I think that's what it's called)
but I think my prof used Dominant Term Rule for this one
idk what to do
Mr. Gamer ๐ต๐ธ
okay
then can you do the thing with the square roots we did earlier?
oh yeah, right
now what?
the negative infinity and the -x and the |x| kinda scaring me
but the bigger issue is this: you can pull out more than just the x^2
2-x / sqrt(5 + 4x^2)
-x + 2 / sqrt(4x^2 + 5)
-x + 2 / sqrt(4x^2 (1 + 5/(4x^2))
so would it just end up being |4x| outside?
yes.
yep, looks good
which one, the 2|x|?
-infinity
Paul04
yep
-infinite + 2 / +infinite * sqrt(1+ 0) ?
lol
okay
and I'm right about the numerator 2 surely
so what happens with the -x and -2x?
do I divide by -x or x?
also is the 2 included or nah?
I don't think the 2 is included
I don't follow, sorry
ur saying I divide by -1/-2?
to evertything?
so just 1/2?
yep
Paul04
another finding asymptote question
alright here is a simplier way of looking at this question
first of all, tell me is the answer positive or negative?
if it helps, just rewrite this as:
-x/(-2x) + 2/(-2x)
I guess you can also do it like that
okay
mr gamer found it to be positive
wdym?
idk why my brain is lagging so hard
alright
so this is my method:
first of all, when x approaches -infinity
the top is positive, so is the bottom
therefore you will get a positive answer
then you expand the sqrt upwards
you get sqrt((x^2-4x+4)/(4x^2+5))
I understand up until this part
now if you know how to find the asymptote of a function like that
the asymptote of the inside is 1/4
after sqrt
it is 1/2
and the answer is positive
therefore the answer is 1/2
ig that sorta makes sense
I think I'm gonna practice a few more problems and I might open new help channels
I think I understand this one but we'll find out once I do more ig
alright, good luck

,w lim_(x to infinity) (3x^3 -8)/(x^2 +4))
Because it is a specific case, when the degree of the numerator is one more than that of the denominator
is there like a list that explains all this or smth you can refer me to
so everyh time numerator is one more than denominator, whatever the output, it's the asymtpote?
Yes
By polynomial division
There is a limit list, and polynomial asymptote list
okay, I'll look into it. thanks

Can this work in the other direction? Like if there exists a index that meets those requirments, then the orbit is that size?
is it an iff theorem?
Lets say im trying to prove that G_x is = G, can i show that using this theorem in the backwords direction showing that an orbit exists with order 1?
that doesn't make sense
what's the backwards direction?
once you have an x, G_x and O_x are fixed

The sum of two strictly positive integers is equal to 11,552.
The sum of the reciprocals of these two numbers is equal to 1 / 2006.
What are these two numbers?
This question is supposed to be solved without an calculator
What did u try
i was trying something but then realzied that i had to find the square root of a number in the 20 millions
so whateve i tried is completely pointless
though there i one thing i think i know
the sum of the reciprocals is like 1/x + 1/y = 1/2006, suppose x is 5 and y 6, 1/5 + 1/6 = 2/11, therfore 1/2006 was originally 2/4012
but still two numbers adding up to 4012 as the denominator, can't give 11552
1/5 + 1/6 = 2/11 are u sure about this?
Start by transforming the question into equations first
Do u know substitution
yeah
Two equations and two unknowns, its likely they can be solved through substitution
xy/2006 = 11552
Right

@ebon flare Has your question been resolved?
y=1/4 is the horizontal asymptote as x approaches infinity on both sides
your approach is very interesting
you have solved for when the discriminant (b^2-4ac) is nonnegative (square root of a negative number is undefined)
however you missed the key part where 2a =/= 0
because that will also lead to an undefined result (division by zero)
simply you need to solve 2(4y-1) =/= 0
and you will find that y =/= 1/4 should complete your answer
@ebon flare
heading to bed soon
Wait dude
whats up
Yeah I wrote x in terms of y
And founded the domain of y
The domain of y will be the range of x
I don't understand from here
I used the condition D>=0 because in this condition I'll get real x
Yes
the formula is undefined if D < 0 (negative)
so it must be D >= 0
but also
the formula is undefined when 2a = 0
so it must be 2a =/= 0
I haven't used quadratic formula
you know like for a quadratic equation
D=0 then roots are equal
D>0 roots are real
D<0 roots are imaginary
I just used the condition D>=0 to get real x (to find domain of y) and the domain of y will be range of x (of question)
hmm
you can't always find the range of the function just by solving the domain (if i understand you correctly)
but following your approach, there is one definite mistake
hey guys great job
if you multiply out the denominator, you must include the condition, or else your implication (->) is false
you need to find where you got this from
my bet is that the caveat is "if a=/= 0 ..."
So your answer is still incomplete
I'll stick to my original explanation
We started with y=f(x) (which allows us to easily see which values of x are undefined) but now we have x = g(y) (which allows us to easily see which values of y are undefined)
you simply need to find where it is undefined (there are two places to look)
there is certainly a deeper meaning to this
however, since we are dealing with a strictly real numbers (your original question), it is not necessary to dive into the complex roots.
D < 0 simply indicates that it does not exist
in our case (real numbers only)
Otherwise, you will need to perform complex analysis
Which unfortunately I am not equipped to do
I'll leave you off with the somewhat unsatisfying answer that "seemingly by coincidence, 2a =/= 0 and a^2 =/= 0 both give you the missing piece that y =/= 1/4". Perhaps someone can provide a cleaner answer if you throw in which textbook definitions/theorems you are using.

Is this question badly worded or am I crazy?
(1-28%) x = 62.5
yes it is
couldn't it be argued that 28%=0.28 so x-0.28=62.5?
this is how you get the correct answer
but is that other way arguable?
It's common to associate percentages as of something than just them only.
ahh okay, i was going to do that
but then i was like
maybe its a trick question

I donโt know if Iโm meant to ask this here but does anyone have any good study methods be it YouTubers websites etc for learning and understanding functions (composite compound linear quadratic cubic)
Yes
For one, Khan Academy
For two, OCT (organic chemistry tutor)
These are general foundational youtubers
I was actually recommended Khan Academy the first time I asked it openly. It's pretty good in my experience.
For any level of math, it helps to write out your thought process while solving a math problem, preferably in a different color ink. When it comes time to study for a test, all you really need to do is look over the notes you wrote. If your notes don't make any sense to you after a day or two, rewrite them until they do make sense.
Also it's generally good to write down anything as you read. It is a reinforcing strategy.

how do i find the vertices and foci?
By completing the square, for instance
so in ellipse form this becomes (x-5)^2 / b^2 and (y-5)^2 / b^2 = 4
uh huuuuuhhh
what is b?
search up the actual equation of an ellipse
That is not actually ellipse form? The right hand side has to be 1.
to find the foci, the formula is a^2 - b^2 = c^2
yeah yeah so divide both sides by 4 but then what
Could you write the whole equation out with numbers?
um ignore the 2. exercise
yeah then (5, 5) is just the centre
- reorganize the equation
- complete the squares
- add the same amounts to the other side
- end up with the correct x and y coordinates
but now what
so here's what symbolab says
it found a^2 and b^2 but it locks the explanation behind a paywall
does it really ask you for the vertices and foci later on?
oh i didn't read the question, i thought it was going to ask for everything
oh yeah you have a slight mistake, should be (x - 5)^2 / 1^2 there

so
the actual answer is wrong?
not the working out
There seems to be a bit of calculation error
In your part
In area 1
And probably area 2 as well
im not sure which part
this part on number 5
should it be 4/3 - 0
yeah
Absolutely
yeah okay i see
is it not?
It is zero tho

Yup
that was my mistake before
i did -4/3 + 4/3 +4/3
Yeah exactly
yeah

Fortunately yes
Cool
Integration by parts
YES
they did ibp twice
they always chose e^x as v' btw
which part have they intergrated twice
second line the integral of sin(x) * e^x
What level maths is this
that's also done by ibp
Bc I do the same thing
If you let u = sin(x) and v' = e^x
oh ok
uk
A level or advanced maths
both
What is it called for u
foundation maths
I can give you a small trick, it might not work every time but I do remember this phrase called ILATE - Inverse>Log>algebraic>trigonometric>exponential
This can help you identify what may be the first function and what can be the second.
Like for this question we made the trigonometric function the first function and exponential function the second. Following the order of ILATE
If you're completely clueless it might help!

a positive int t can be written as a^2 + b^2 as if only every prime p โก 3 (mod 4) on its prime factorization with an even opponent
even opponent???
no
if all primes that are p = 3 (mod 4) have even power then you can do it

What is the apostrophe on a doing there?
they interpreted a as a function
It represents the derivative of a with respect to x.
so its derivative comes into play
But I meant for the a to be a constant
then replace the a'(...) by a
Ohhhh
Alternatively, you can just take the a out of the WA calculation and multiply at the end.
The AI assume that a is a function cause I put it that way
Thanks, everyone

This question is saying "The figure shows four linear lines which intersect with eachother. Find the sum of p + q + r + s."
Any tips? No answer, just what i should look out for
Ive tried a very weird and clutterly approach, like trying to find the individual angles, which lead to something weird
for example the 180* on the s angle, where the other angle would be 180 - s etc.
But that feels like the wrong approach
since i really cant do much more after that
Just use the formula in which the sum of internal angles of a triangle is the opposite external angle
With 180-r, 180-s and the opposite external angle
I dont quite follow here
Then take the small triangle, and apply the angle sum property(sum=180)
Ok, let me explain it in a more understandable way
So, you see the point at which angle r is, right? Let's call it A
The enitre angle that r resides on?
The point is A
Yes i see
At which the two lines meet, and angle r is subtended
Yess, now, the same for angle s is B, let's say
Tip, write it down on a piece of paper, because it's pretty difficult to visualise
Yes
The point at which q is subtended is D, and for p, it's E
Now, the angles of โABC are 180-p, 180-s and some angle x, let's say
Yes
For โABC
Ah i wrote a little wrong in my sketch
I thought x was the missing angle in the triangle
Otherwise yeah that would be true
Uh, it is
X is angle(ACB
Did you mean it like this?
sorry if its a little clunky
So, we take โCDE
Nah , chill... I'm way too messy, I'm used to it
And apply angle sum property of the triangle with 180-q , 180-p and 180-x
Substitute 180-x as this in the equation
Ahh, shit
X = 180 - s + 180 - r
Mb, i confused the variables
right?
Yes, mb
i was a little confused over that but nice to know im thinking correctly :x
So, you do a bit of algebra, and you get 180-s + 180-r +180-p + 180-q =180
yess i was about to type that
so they dont post the answer for "intuitve" thinking
8
or 9 depending on where you live
however geometry isnt my strong suit
i mostly do calculus
Hehe, I'm 9th, but 10th, technically, since classes started
Good to know i can learn from you 
Hehe, same... I'm in Sri Chaitanya , from india
U?
Im from Sweden, and this is for a high school
Damn, nice
Oh wow, my school is like for preparing for IIT-JEE entrance exam
Really? already??
Do u know what it is?
Yeah, started in 8th
its like gaokao
For sure, ig is the 2nd toughest
Oh, just 12th syllabus
Any special areas?
I'm almost done with the syllabus ๐ฌ
Woahhh
In maths, I'm currently learning continuity and differentiability, though I know some basic calc
Lol, idk abt that
I always screw up in the exam
me too but we hope for the best
Im currently learning calc 2, but i need to retrace to learn some ground things
like formulas or ideas
It's 12 am rn ๐ฌ
Damn
Talk about time zones heh

What is "Algebraic Expressions and Equations" again? I have a test on this tomorrow and I feel so sleepy I can't understand nothin
I don't really have work to show, but I can try if you ask me for some specific work or I just provide the textbook thing the teacher put
I found some questions the textbook already has maybe u guys can show me how they are solved
Which ones
1, 2, 8, 11
Alr
1a
The highest degree is 2
So that would be a quadratic
Linear= No exponent aka 1
Quadratic = 2 as exponent
Cubic = 3
Quartic = 4
Quintic = 5
To count the number of terms
You can look at it as being seperated by operations
So why dont you try number 2
1b has 2 terms so like binomial and it has only this W so Linear
Binomial, 1 degree, Linear
1c, has 4 terms so its this polynomial I think
Yeah
Anything past Quintic is just a polynomial
degree is 16?
Degree would just be 6
Cause thats your highest exponent value
1d, monomial, degree 3, linear
It wouldnt be linear though
What would it be?
^
Wait how?
What
Look at the terms i said
If the exponent is 3 what would it be?
cubic
Nice
So now 2

I need help understanding the central limit theorem
If I had some distribution heavily skewed to the left such that the most extreme 10 or 20 values on the right hand side have the highest possibilities. How is it that the distribution of the sum is normal?
If I took many many sums, sometimes il get that extreme value which is small causing the sum to be smaller but their histogram bars will be much shorter simply because the values needed to make those small sums require you getting some of those unprobabl smaller values.
On the flip side the most largest values are the most probable and so therefore wouldnt the largest sums also be the most probably sums as well meaning that the majority of the mass of our sum distribution will still be to the right and be left skewed?
this is the first question I have il say the 2nd after I crack this
@kind sandal Has your question been resolved?
it's not the distribution of the sum, it's the distribution of the mean
i think this is important
yes this would make sense but they were also saying that the distribution of the sum also follows a normal distribution and when I looked online they confirmed this as well
anyway to answer your question, basically if you take the mean of the sum of variables with the same distribution
then the distribution of that mean is more symmetrical
it just is
like in the Khan academy video he said the same thing and that the greater the n was (ie the number terms in your sum) the more the distribution of the sum will approximate
and if you take lots and lots and lots then it turns into the normal distribution which is completely symmetric
like, you're right that it will still be skewed
but it will be less skewed
no my reference to the skewness was just when we were making a distribution of the sums
not of the averages, if we kept taking the averages
it will bea normal
?
i mean the sum is the same
the sum will still be skewed, but it will be less skewed
but the point I was making is that if we repeated it ininfinity times the distribution of the average would be normal but the distribution of the sums would be still left skewed
no it wouldn't
the more you repeat it
the less skewed it gets
like, it's just a limit
1 is positive
1/2 is positive
1/3 is positive
1/n is always positive for any n
but the limit as n -> infinity of 1/n is 0
which is not positive
yes that for the average though, when we take the sum there is no 1/n
no
i'm just using a limit example
let's go like this
1/2 is less than 1
3/4 is less than 1
7/8 is less than 1
1 - 2^-n is always less than 1 for any n
but the limit of 1 - 2^-n as n goes to infinity is just 1
which is not less than 1
similarly, for your question, any finite sum of the variables will still be skewed, but the limit as you go to infinity is not skewed
where are you getting this from
1-2^-n
1/2 = 1 - 2^-1
3/4 = 1 - 2^-2
7/8 = 1 - 2^-3
like
it's just the formula
do you know what limits are
btw
yeah
ok
but I dont what formula you are referring to
when you said 1/n I assumed you meant the fraction outside the summation
for the average equation
i am taking a completely separate example
as a metaphor
i'm not getting it from anywhere
i'm making it up
to show the point
the point is that, even if a property holds for every term in a sequence, it doesn't mean the property will hold for the limit of that sequence
why does this relate to your context
if you take the sum or the mean of 1, 2, 3, however many terms of your skewed variable
the result will still be skewed
Closed due to timeout
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
the less skewed it gets , but I dont see how itl becoem normal though
but the limit distribution is not skewed
ok can you accept that the limit distribution may not be skewed
does that make sense to you
.ropen
.reopen
โ
you want me to accept that it can be normal ?
but thats just normal
