This is just a general question to those who are good with binary/hex/decimal
What is in the screenshot is an exponent field of e5. Basically where e5 is put to the power of what's to the left and right.
I'm trying to understand what's going on but can't really seem to wrap my head around it.
If I have a look at the first row we have simply (e5)^x where x can go between 0-f in hex.
I've tried working out e5^2 but can't seem to make it 4c.
I've converted e5 into 11100101 (which is 229 and e5 in binary) and then done some binary multiplication but I still don't come up with 4c. I get 217...am I doing something wrong here?
i think those might be exponents modulo 256
Yeah. That's what I'm working with as well
Result:
217
,w 217 to hex
2 things
1 - Wow that was quick
2 - Crap. Does that mean that this resource is inaccurate?
"When any of these numbers is exponentiated multiple times, the original number is reached again after 255 exponentiations. For example, here is a chart, in hexadecimal notation, of the number 0xe5 being exponentiated 255 times:"
That's the text above the field
huh.
This could be a chance for me to actually correct this and then use it as an example for uni.
Should I go through with this or?
the 0e to 01 thing is also suspicious
because if the document is to be trusted then 0e * e5 = 01 mod 256
but it isnt
so something strange is going on.
ok hold up now
i think those might not be plain binary numbers.
did the surrounding text, or the book this is in, mention such a thing as GF(256) or finite fields by any chance
Ok I might be trying to work with Galois fields
oh so THATS whats going on.
Reason. I'm trying to research AES
okay that makes everything make sense all of a sudden
GF(2^8) is constructed as F2[x]/(f), where f is an irreducible 8th degree polynomial over F2
and these bytes represent elements of GF(256) as (bit0) + (bit1)x + (bit2)x^2 + ... + (bit7)x^7
im not sure if f can be recovered from this table alone but i think it must have been given somewhere in the text
Maximum that I've been provided in this is a set of Rijndael generators, those generators expressed in hex. And then the following text and table
can you show those...?
I've seen the use of GF(2^8) in other documents covering this before tho
Here's the above text that I'm working with
hmm
but the text does not construct rijndael's field itself?
i for one don't want to go through all 32 possible candidates for the polynomial mod which arithmetic is done
Oh yeah. I don't want to force someone to go through that many possibilities.
As for the rijndael field? Nothing.
Most of it has been helpful in my understanding. Few bits of C++ code in order to explain what's going on but it's not actually shown the base Rijndael field
strange. why would they not show it?
Maximum that I've found is a text document with a list of all 128 generators slapped into an exponent field and a log field
i mean ok let's try piecing this together...
e5^2 = 4c, they say.
e5 = 1111 0101 = x^7+x^6+x^5+x^4+x^2+1, 4c = 0100 1100 = x^6 + x^3 + x^2
,w (x^7+x^6+x^5+x^4+x^2+1)^2 - (x^6 + x^3 + x^2) mod 2
Isn't e5 = 11100101?

Really doesn't like that
it's just a polynomial what is there not to like
yeesh
ugh.
,w simplify (x^7+x^6+x^5+x^2+1)^2
try expand rather than simplify
because... in char 2, (a+b)^2 = a^2 + b^2
so we have
x^14 + x^12 + x^10 + x^6 + x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + 1 must be divisible by some degree 8 irreducible
in hindsight this was prob not a good idea
idt i am any closer to figuring out what poly the rijndael field is based upon

"A rcon operation that is simply 2 exponentiated in the Galois field."
No idea if this might help. But it's something further back in a different area with the Rijndael Key Schedule
pls don't hurt me if it helps more

Strange that we're getting a polynomial to the power of 8 while trying to keep everything 8 bits long
,w expand (1 + x^2 + x^5 + x^6 + x^7)^2 - (x^6 + x^4 + x + 1) (x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1)
x^6 + x^3 + x^2
well i worked out that this is (x+1)(x^13 + x^12 + x^9 + x^8 + x^7 + x^6 + x^3 + x + 1)
but also you seem to have found the answer on wikipedia so i guess that isn't helpful

And all of this could have been solved if I'd looked into the Rijndael finite field
Bugger
Thanks for all your help tho. Very much appreciated

Ok maybe I've got one more question.
Snow put this polynomial: (1 + x^2 + x^5 + x^6 + x^7)^2 - (x^6 + x^4 + x + 1) (x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1)
(1 + x^2 + x^5 + x^6 + x^7)^2 makes sense as this was e5 in polynomial form
(x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1) makes sense now as this is the Rijndael finite field in polynomial.
(x^6 + x^4 + x + 1) My question lies with this. Where has this come from?
i think it's... division?
if you expand out (1 + x^2 + x^5 + x^6 + x^7)^2 mod 2
you get some big polynomial of degree 14
but since we're in this finite field
we want to get rid of some multiple of x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1
because that's equal to zero by the construction of the field
i worked it out by doing division
so if you just divide that big polynomial by x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1, you get some quotient, x^6 + x^4 + x + 1, and the remainder, x^6 + x^3 + x^2, which is the actual result that you get in the field
So all that's been done is the polynomial that's squared has been divided by the rijndael polynomial?
yep
,tex<polynom> \polylongdiv{x^{14} + x^{12} + x^{10} + x^4 + 1}{x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1}

what 
wait did you just get the bot to divide the polynomials for you
yes
huh
doesnt support doing it in F2 though annoyingly
I guess those negatives in the texit screenshot is from your first typing?
Something not adding up between that and the polynomial you showed before
no its doing the division over R
the negatives are because it's just- yeah
if you mod 2 then all works out
it's not doing characteristic 2 polynomial division
that's also why there are 2s in there
I mean yeah... -1mod2 is 1 afterall

whats the question?
It’s not A that’s for sure
Yeah cause the graph represents a quadratic equation
it cannot be A as it isn't a qudratic nor D as it is negative x. To determine between B or C factorise to find the roots of the equation
how do i factor
the roots of the graph is $x = -2$ and $x = 6$ so it must be in the form of $a(x + 2)(x - 6)$.
Nayaka [ꦟꦪꦏ]
is this from a test?
you should at least do some work or point out what you don't understand.
I am
Im halfway through already..
but this is on something i wasnt here for
So i need@help
alright
Nayaka [ꦟꦪꦏ]
144
Do you know how to factorise?
No..
Oh ok you need to know that
thats why i meed help
Maybe watch a YouTube video on how to factorise, it’s difficult to explain thru text
Why would it be 144?
Judging by the question, can you guess what the graph would look like?
try to answer this first
if you don't know how, tell us where you stuck
IS IT 324
no
LMAO
is it 4
you can't just randomly guess the answer..
the rocket returns to the ground, so it has the same height as the ground, which is...
Well im looking at the graph
do you understand quadratics?
The x-axis represents time
alright I guess I'm out
LMAO
okay I'm back
or do you plot the graph on geogebra?
That's not how you do it on a test, though. I'm just trying to give you directions so you can do it on your own next time
I mean plotting the graph will help them visualise the problem better but they shouldn’t become dependent on it
OK SO I GOT IT WRONG
should've answered this first
yes, i agree with you
Yeah, you need to learn how to factorise
Take out a common factor of 5
Nayaka [ꦟꦪꦏ]
Huh
2+3
okay hear me out
I keed help
is it C
I'm trying to help you but you wouldn't listen
Ya
is it right tho
HAHA
Is it right
you got a point tho
45/5 = 9, that's what you meant right?
okay wait
Hurry -
$5x^2 - 45 = 0$
Nayaka [ꦟꦪꦏ]
actually it's B
plug in x = 0 here
You’re just rushing thru your homework and not trying to understand it. It’s not going to help you in the long run 😭
No but i jabe 2 minutes left
this is my last math class
Can someone help
PLEASE
x=-1 is a root so (x+1) is a factor
so is it right
(x-4) is a factor
Yeah but I’m not so sure about the first box
Like idk 💀
But the other two are correct

How does one find all these solutions without using a calculator
Im so lost
I can get the 0,-1 and 0,1
but idk how to get the 0.5's n shi
Do we have f(x, y) = 0?
why would this matter?
Nevermind. My bad for asking.
can you show the whole page
I can do the Hessian matrix and eigen values
i just dont know how to find all them values
like how would anyone think of 0.5
try completing the square for the terms in parentheses
3x^2 + y^2 - 1 = 0
x^2 + 3y^2 - 1 = 0
hm
,w plot x^2 + 3y^2 - 1
ok
okay that plot wasn't very helpful
x^2 is a perfect square already
actually completing the square is unnecessary
just solve for x or y here
x^2 + 3y^2 - 1 = 0
then plug it into the other equation in parentheses
3x^2 + y^2 - 1 = 0
or maybe just solve for x^2 or y^2
may may algebra easier
but is there not infinite values? like x = 0.1 makes y = root(33)/10
Since they both equal 0, can i not equate them to eachother. Because when i do i get x = y
now how it works
!help
Please read #❓how-to-get-help
that loses some solutions.
It might help to organise the ideas as follows:
From the first equation either y = 0 or y^2 = 1 - 3x^2.
Use these two cases with the second equation.
Each of these two cases will have two cases when used with the second equation but it should work out quickly.
BIg thanks got both all them half ones
Thanks ill keep this in mind for my next one

what makes you think that it should be
Because
Astmptote means
Not reachable
Here
This is why i think y=0 is an asymptote
HA
Horizontal A
Please tell me what im doing wrong tho
Not reachable
misconception
asymptotes can be crossed infinitely many times
asymptotes describe end behaviour

Find the volume of the contents of the bowl K, given by x^2 + y^2 ≤ z ≤ 1
I need a clue. I don't know where to begin.
Do you know how the sketch the curves z = x^2 + y^2 (= r^2) and z = 1?
I don't get this part "(= r^2) "
In view of cylindrical coordinates, x^2 + y^2 = r^2.
I don't see what is so difficult to understand then.
This questions begs the usage of such a coordinate system so I put r^2 in brackets.
my problem is that I wanted to use this $\int\int\int 1 dxdydz$
afeAlway
But the problem is that I don't have a bound for x and y? So should I bound $-\sqrt{1-x^2}\leq y \leq \sqrt{1-x^2}$?
afeAlway
Similarly to we talked above before, the result exists here we may use
-1 <= x <= 1 will be the bounds as R (for the theorem) would be a circle on the xy-plane of radius 1. For, the soup bowl is defined above such a circle.
$-\sqrt{1 - x^2} \leq y \leq \sqrt{1 - x^2}$ represent a circle.
hm
stabulo
After all, these two curves are the explicit functions of the implicit function x^2 + y^2 = 1
So to clear things up, we find the two surfaces intersect when z = x^2 + y^2 = 1. From this we can determine that the surfaces intersect on the cylinder x^2 + y^2 = 1.
If z = 0, we have the circle on the xy-plane, if z = 1, we have the curve of intersection.
but the rest of the bounds is correct? I don't need to change anything?
You should obtain as one possible order
$V = \int_{-1}^{1} \dd{x} \int_{-\sqrt{1 - x^2}}^{\sqrt{1 - x^2}} \dd{y} \int_{x^2 + y^2}^{1} \dd{z}$.
stabulo
Well then you would be answering a different question.
It's easy to imagine this calculation is going to be annoying which is why I suggest using the theorem
The we would have 0 < r <= 1, 0 <= θ <= 2π, r^2 <= z <= 1.
It's nice because R is that circle which can be easily described in such coordinates and the z bounds lend them self (very conveniently) to it too.
Wait so if I understand correctly this theorem is suggesting variable substitution. But is it the normal variable substitution? As in where I calculate the determinant of the jacobian? Does it have a name so I can read more about it. What is the theorem called?
You need not use a Jacobian to prove the result.
Theorem 6 is basically Theorem 5 I posted but you evaluate the double integral in polar coordinates instead of rectangular.
Remember like with the double integral and the related iterated integral, the triple integral is not a iterated integral by its definition.
A theorem to help you calculate it is seen in Theorems 5 and 6.
Of course, by our discussion from before, it can be reduced to a triple iterated integral but it's helpful to write it as in Theorem 5 as you then know what region R we are considering integrating over when it reduces to the double integral after the first iterated integral is computed.
I'll include this to complete this particular discussion.
Is there maybe an example you can show me? What book are you using?
There is but it might not be easy for you to understand, I'm not sure.
It's Advanced Calculus by David V. Widder.
you're right. This is too hard, is there maybe a website you recommend I should check out since I'm struggling with this concept as you might have already noticed.
Paul's online notes.
I will check that out. Again thanks for the Help.
It's not too hard tbh but there may be many things you don't see immediately.
Glad to help.

Very quick question
When finding the inverse of a square root for instance sqrt(y-2)
You can’t do +2 until you remove the sqrt root right?
Yes
Ok I’m going to solve this problem reslly quick
Then show u what I have
Im pretty sure I did something wrong
,rotate
What's the original problem?
This is the original
And the goal is?
Finding the inverse, isolating y
A close answer choice I found on the self-checking is $x^2+2$
hej
But idk how that will be an answer choice if I have the square root
I got it from when I squared the y-2
Square root on both sides to cancel out the y-2
I'm gonna be honest, your process isn't clear at all
Ok I’ll start over
Ohh wait I see why
Im not supposed to square root both terms
To undo a squareroot you just square it again and for the x you’re just doing x^2
So my answer is x^2+2
Thank you both

Would this be C?
@strong void Has your question been resolved?
Because 7x^2 - 21y^2 would be (7x -3) (7x+3)?
But 7*7=49
expand (7x - 3)(7x + 3) and see what you get
Few things, you started with 7x²-21y², and ended up with 49x²-9, so I imagine it's not the correct answer. Also, your y disappeared
So would B be correct? (x+y) (x-y) = x^2 + y^2
Where did you get x²-y² from B?
I meant to put +
❓
Yeah, before you edited it
Yea
How did you get x²+y² from B?
(x+y) (x-y)
Expand (x+y)(x-y) and see what you get
x^2 - y^2?

So hello. Currently I am struggling to solve this math problem
I believe I've misunderstood the method my teacher taught us, and I'm lost. So what I'm looking for what's the method one would use to solve a question like this
Ah wait, I made a mistake. Let me repsost the image real quick
My apologies. Here's the correct question
@cold minnow Has your question been resolved?
What have you been taught?
So from what I understand.
- First sketch the graph to determine if it's negative or positive
- Find the x intercepts
- Put them in the integral
- find the anti-derivative of the equation
- Slot the higher x-intercept into the anti-derivative then subtract it by the lower anti-derivative with the lower x-intercept
The x intercepts are both 3 and -3 right? So this would be the final equation
@cold minnow Has your question been resolved?
@cold minnow My friend, do you still require help or were you able to solve it ?_?
I got the area as 36sq Unit
I'd still like some help if that's possible
Sure, so were you able to draw the graph ?_?
Or you want me to explain from basics ?_?
I am extremely sorry for such a weird drawing. I actually had to draw it with my mouse, and it's sort of hard to draw with the mouse.
Literally same lmao
Now we have to find the area of the shaded region.
LMAO Yeah
Anyways
So we can do one thing for that: we can subtract the upper area (The one which is created by the line y=0) by the area of the parabola in order to get the shaded area.
So it will be
And -3 will be lower limit and +3 will be the upper limit
Because those are the only two common points, both of the equations have the same points and intersect with each other.
I see
So now, integrating it and solving the equation, we get the area as 36 sq unit.
Again, I am sorry for having such bad drawings, but I hope they are helpful to you in any way.
They were very helpful. Thank you very much. I see where my error was now
I forgot the brackets after the integration which caused me to mess up my order of operations. Thank you very much for the help

The ratio of HM and GM between two numbers a and b is 4:5, then find the ratio of the numbers.
,, \frac{\frac{2ab}{a+b}}{\sqrt{ab}}=\frac{4}{5}=\frac{2\sqrt{ab}}{a+b}
$\frac{2}{\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}}+\frac{\sqrt{b}}{\sqrt{a}}}=\frac{4}{5}$
I'm showing my work so I can know where I went wrong
,w 2t^2-5t+2=0
So, a:b=4:1 or a:b=1:4
But, 4:1 is given as the correct answer
and 1:4 is also in the options.
Why is that?
because you were fucked over, that's why.
HM and GM are both symmetric -- if a and b were to swap places, neither of these means would change its value.
however the ratio of a to b would have to invert following such a change.
it should’ve stated that a>b
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
also don't just jump in and ignore the convo that had been going on prior
so my point is, you couldn't have distinguished 4:1 from 1:4 based on the data given.
I am asked to find the value of k such that a \geq k
not the greatest value of k such that a ≥ k?
sorry, wont happen again
use the A.M. >= GM property.
$a=5^{1+x}+5^{1-x}+5^{2x}+5^{-2x}$
Let t=5^{x}
Then, $$a=\left( t+\frac{1}{t}\right)^2+5 \cdot \left( t+ \frac{1}{t} \right)-2$$
I get a=(-33)/4 to be the minimum value of this function

Am I correct?
,w minimum value of k^2+5k-2
a = t^2 + 1/t^2 + 5(t + 1/t)
t^2 + 1/t^2 and t + 1/t are both ≥ 2
(and in fact achieve their minimum at the same value of t but that matters less)

i dont know where to start 😭
Hmm
f(k+1)>f(k) tells us that f is always increasing, but i dont see how we could narrow it down even further
it's f(k+1)>f(f(k))
Ohhh
ye
If we assume that f is a bijection then we can apply the inverse and get: k+1>f(k)
A trivial solution for this would be f(k)=k
But i dont think we should assume bijectivity
Maybe we can prove that it is a bijection that would be cool
Actually if f is a bijection then f(k)=k is the only solution since f(k)=k-1 is not well defined since f(0)=-1 which is not positive

I'm having trouble evaluating this integral. The answer is 9/2 but I am not quite sure how to get there.
What have you tried
this is from a study session i had with a bunch of people last night so we virtually tried everything including seperating the integral, distributing in the negative, etc
we couldn't figure it out
Also, with respect to what variable is this integral being integrated?
x
It needs a dx then
mb i forgot to write it
but that doesnt change the answer
Let me get what i just did now
Your $-1^2$ was the mistake
SWR

I dont get how these multiplicative ones are recognised
Try thinking about them by choosing a number
Let's say 2
2>0 is true
Now if we were to multiply -1 to both sides
It becomes
-2>0 which is not true
And hence we have to flip the sign around to make it true
-2<0 is true

Is the period for this graph 2pi or 4pi?
and what would the values in-between the pi be?
like from pi to 2pi
would that be 3pi/2?
and for 2pi to 3pi 5pi/2?
nvm I figured it out -- it's 2pi

me? @warm current yeah.

is this right?
the amp is 3
it's a sin graph because when y=0 x=0
the period is pi
but I couldn't find the choice
Could you show the whole question, @tepid panther ?
sure.
here you go.
to find the period, we should do 2pi/b
pi = 2pi/b
cross multiply
2pi/|b| to be technical
where'd you get 3 from?
cross multiplication
I didn't know if it would be 3
our original problem is pi = 2pi/b
From P=2pi/b?
cross multiply gives you pi*b=2pi
oopsie
pi=2pi/b, right?
plug in b=1 and b=2 and see for yourself

pi * 1 = 2pi
1pi = 2pi
pi * 2 = 2pi
2pi = 2pi
alright B = 2 my bad
so is my answer choice right? @warm current
down to the last minute detail
(don't think I didn't catch that reference 😆)
would I be wrong on this question too?

am I wrong on this question? (especially the second one)
.yes, they were all correct
but doesn't b correspond with the period? SWR.
alright.
thanks.
when it wants the full equation of the graph that's when the b becomes relevant right?

Suppose there is a function h(x)=log of f(x) to the base a - log of g(x) to the base a. And I've to find the domain of h(x). Do I seperately find f(x)>0 and g(x)>0 and then take intersection or do I just do f(x)/g(x)>0
$h(x)=\log_a f(x) - \log_a g(x)$
Yes
Toby
the first - you should do them seperately
Well base doesn't necessarily matters since it's constant but that's my exact question
we want log f(x) to be defined, as well as log g(x)
Ok I'll do that
As long as it's a positive value other than 1
Do I also need to consider the f(x)/g(x)>0 after that or it will do the work?
if both f and g are >0, then f/g > 0 automatically
What if they both are negative then f(x)/g(x)>0 as well oh wait that can't happen. Thanks. I understand now
Since f(x) and g(x) have to be first defined
yea

There is a question with a total of 9 points. The Mean score was 4.48 with a standard deviation of 3.19.
I calculated that at least 7.8% of students got 9/9. I also calculated that at least 4.3% of students got at or below -1/9 as a score, and that at least 4.1% of students got 10/9. Even though neither of those makes sense
How can I correctly calculate how many students got 9/9 if the score can only go from 0 to 9?
calculate the probability of getting 9 or higher
lmao amazing response
I wasn’t sure if the Bell Curve going outside of 0 to 9 would make a difference. Which is why I was not sure if I had the right answer since the area from 0 to 9 would not be the same as the area under the bell curve
do you have access to a computer for your answer?/
Yes, I was just curious since they are last years test statistics for the test I am writing in a few hours
ah ok
use desmos and substitute in the mean and standard deviation into gauss' bell curve formula
and you can integrate and find the probability very quickly in desmos
if you want to find 9, integrate the curve from 8.99 to 9.01 or something like that
and you'll get an answer that's correct down to a few decimal places
gotcha
have you done poisson's stuff yet?
no, I’ve done basic integrals in calculus. We have not done much statistics
ah ok
however
@tribal compass
if you're studying for an exam, a question like this may require you to use z scores
which is something like $z = \frac{x-μ}{σ}$
Zouni
typically they make you remember some value's for z that represent probabilities in the z distribution

Hello could I please have some help with this question
As i can understand its asking about how many scores there are that are at least 70
from 70-71 = 6
72-73 = 2
74-75 = 2
6 + 2 + 2 = 10
wrong channel
you have to make your own
sorryy
so the answer is 10
yea
im not good a maths but maybe i might help you make a channel
oh i see
you see those numbers which are out of where the circles intersect
yeah 23,46 and 41 right
what could you do with them to get total number of students that like only one type of food
multiply
and what would you get ?
23x46x41=43,378
quite a big number isn't it?
yeah
so do you think its needing multiplication?
no
exactly
so maybe division
so you need to get an exact number from the column that you have
your trying to guess
the numbers that are shown can be obtained by adding
sorry
i meant adding
so its 110
also completely unrelated question, what anime type do you watch?
ok do you watch it
mostly science anime and fighting like tokyo revengers or black clover
i did even read manga
well if you like science anime think the black bullet is one
it's kind of like a sci-fi monster type of anime
ok bye

I don't really understand what's going on here?
what exactly happened in the middle two lines of that 😅
Do you mean where the 2^12 appears?
yes
although a clarification of the entire question would also be very helpful
as I am confused with that too seemingly
When you sum all the $\binom{n}{k}$ with $n$ fixed for $k$ between 0 and $n$, the result is $2^n$
d឵
That can be proved by induction, or using that 2^n is the number of subsets of a set with n elements, and \binom{n}{k} is the number of subsets with k elements
oh wouldn't that be similar to permuting it then?
oh i think i get it hmm
also may i ask what does this really entail? @lost flax
both sets share no elements and are not the same?
if i read it correctly?
It means that they share no elements
They might however be the same
If both are empty
but wouldn't the $i \ne j$ portion indicate that they are not
Actually no
i \neq j only implies that the indices are different
Think of it as a sequence of numbers. You can have x_1, x_2 and x_3. If x_1 = -1, x_2 = 4 and x_3 = 4, then for i=2 and j=3, i \neq j but x_i = x_j
In this particular example, of course, all the A_i are different, but you only know that after studying them

.
?
Ok
So
11.31/8.2 = about 1.37
Then
1.37 x 7.8
=
10.76
But it ain’t right
