The 14 remains outside the brackets cause he spends another 14$ after he spends 1/3 of his remaining money @olive rover
Is it okay??
I just tried solving it and got 296 
@olive rover Has your question been resolved?
@olive rover hey you're still there?
Yes I’m stuck between the answers 112 and 70
Yeah we can
Alright
Let's call the whole budget "T"
Okay?
Now it says that when Mr. Howell entered the first store, he paid half of his money (aka T) and added $14 on top of that.
So that means $\frac T2 + 14$
VulcanOne
Yup I have that down for his first store visit
Alright
I need you to focus with me rn
Now after he paid that, what does he have left?
In terms of T?
1/3 of his remaining budget?
Nope
So like
After the first store visit
He went in with T dollars and paid T/2 + 14 dollars
How much does he have now?
28? Or 7?
Hmm
Should I be equaling it to 0
Alright let's approach it from somewhere else
You have $100 dollars
You went to a store and the item you want was half your budget.
And you decided to buy it with an accessory that costed $5
How much are you left with now?

45$
Yep
Sorry I was away from my phone
No worries :)
So you did 100/2 first and got 50, then added 5 to it and lastly, you did 100-55 right?
Yeah
Alrighty
Now let's go back to our example
Mr Howell had a budget of T dollars
He spent T/2 + 14 dollars in the first store
How much remains?

I got -28
You should still have T in the mix
Hmm
Keep in mind how you got $45 earlier
100 -55
Same concept here
But last time I knew the budget and now idk what I’m subtracting by
The budget is T
We called the whole budget T
It has a value, but we will work to find it
For now, it is a placeholder
So we act as if we know it so that we write our equation
T-14/2
You're a bit confused but you got the spirit
This answer is close. It just needs a bit of rearranging.
How did you reach that btw?
Nope remember
T is the whole
And the payment was half the budget and a bit more
So the remaining should be lower than the half by a bit
Wait I thought of pizzas just now
1 min
Alright let's think of pizzas instead
This is Mr Howell's whole pizza
We represent this pizza with the letter T
Okay?
Now Mr Howell ate this pizza on 2 days
On the first day, he ate half of the pizza and a bit more
So like, T/2 + 14
So first he ate half
Then ate a bit more
What remains is less than half
Right?
Yes
So looking at our example
The first day, he ate T/2 and ate 14 more after that
And the whole pizza was T
So T - (T/2 + 14) should be the remaining portion right?
$T - \left( \frac T2 + 14\right)$
VulcanOne
Sorry I was trying to try it in my own and I set it up like this
It's almost correct that way
I just want you to understand where it is wrong
We agreed that $\frac 12 x + 14$ is slightly bigger than half right?
VulcanOne
Yes since we’re adding the 14
1/2x-14?
Exactly
Same half minus that 14
When he hate half the pizza and a bit more, what remains is the other half but missing that bit
Correct
Now when he goes to the second store, he spends one third of the remaining money, and spends 14 more on top of it
So like
Exactly what you wrote but instead it is -14 inside the brackets with 1/2 x
So in the end he has no more money
Now this begs the question
If we added the first store, and the second store, wouldn't that give us the entire budget?
So combine both equations and equal is to zero?
Why 0?
Let's go over it
So like
Let's call it the "spending" equation
So before any store trips, he spent nothing right?
Yeah
Yup
Yeah
Lastly, he went and spent (x/2 -14)/3 +14
And he ends up with 0 money
Now 0 money means he spent how much again?
7?
Oh 100$
Yep
So returning to this question, can you answer it?
No… like am I just subtracting instead of adding now
Hmm
Shouldn't the spending be equal to what he started with?
Let's have an example on that
Am I setting the equation equal to itself?
Nope
Let's have an example on the side
So like
You are walking with your best friend
And then you feel hungry so you tell your friend that you wanna buy something to eat
So your friend gives your money and says: "Please buy me a bag of chips and a coca cola"
The money is totaling $10
So you go buy your stuff and buy the bag of chips which costs $6 and the coca cola costs $4
And you come back with 0 friend's money
So you give your friend the coca cola and the bag of chips and your friend asks: "how much does each item cost?"
6+4=10
Exactly
Let's apply the same logic to our question
So Mr Howell spent so far x/2 + 14 and (x/2 -14)/3 + 14
$\frac x2 + 14$ and $\frac 13 \left( \frac x2 -14\right) + 14$
So I set my equation equal to x since that’s the total budget?
VulcanOne
Yepp
You got the key to the whole question now
All that remains is the algebra

@olive rover did you get there?
When I solve it is that my answer?
Yep
The question wants how much he had when he entered the store so basically how much budget he started with
Aka the whole budget

I got x=70!!

My goal is to prove that for all real numbers $a$,
$$\lim_{x \to a}{|x|} = |a|$$
In other words, that the absolute value function is continuous.
I imagined that I break into three cases. Case 1: $a> 0$; Case 2: $a = 0$, Case 3: $a < 0$. In case 1 and 3, the absolute value function could be replaced by x or -x respectively. However, how do I justify this? I want to say “since $x > 0$, then $|x| = x$”, but how do I establish that $x > 0$?
Rmoney
You can always restrict the values of x by choosing delta correctly
If you proof something by cases, you do not need to justify your cases.
Instead you need to proof that the cases are exhaustive, i.e. that there is at least one case that is always applicable.
Instead of working with cases I also want to suggest using triangle inequality. I think this would result in a much more concise proof but if you prefer doing it with cases, you can also do that.
Oh that’s an interesting idea. I will think about how to do it with the triangle inequality
@hollow cobalt I think I comprehend what you mean
Yeah, in the general case you can choose delta to be min(|a|, somethingelse)
Which will guarantee that x > 0 or x < 0 depends on a

im looking back at my notes and i never did a problem like this, i need a walkthrough on it
if epsilon is 0.1 then that means we need an equation like

@unborn abyss
i think one of the issues here is that unlike with addition and subtraction, where you start with two things of the same unit type (volume, mass, time, etc) and end up with something of that same type, the result in multiplication is a different type than what you started with. If you're thinking of multiplying two measuring cups partially full of water and arriving at a new measuring cup, then yeah that doesn't make any physical sense.
but if you think about a measuring cup that is 2/3 of a liter, and filling it up one and a half times, then it might make more sense that you end up with exactly one liter. (the units here are liters / cup, and cups)
Sorry, I had to do some stuff so I couldn't respond. You said this a moment ago.
You say "but if you think about a measuring cup that is 2/3 of a liter, and filling it up one and a half times, then it might make more sense that you end up with exactly one liter."
I guess I'm still confused on this and my brain just breaks.
If I have a measuring cup that's nearly full, then fill it up one and a half times, my head thinks I'm getting 1.5 times the volume of the cup (3 liters) and then adding that to the cup that's already 2/3 filled, which would obviously overflow.
Maybe I'm just making a very basic mistake and conflating addition and multiplication.
@grand perch Has your question been resolved?
you are conflating addition and multiplication, yes;
remember that I said to think about a measuring cup that is 2/3 of a liter, like a small measuring cup that only carries 666 mL
if you were to take that cup, fill it up once and dump it into an urn, and then fill it up another halfway and dump it into the same urn, you'd end up with 1 liter of water in that urn
Okay, I think this mostly fixed my issue. Thanks 🙂

im very confused on how too find the lower limit of this graph, its a rectangular hyperbole so its not on a line so i cant start from 0 like usual. The question for the problem is, "For the following exercises, draw the region bounded by the curves. Then, use the disk method to find the volume when the region is rotated around the x-axis."
Start from the intersection of the rectangle's top side and the function.
y = 3 and y = 1/x.
Instead of going x to x we are going y to y?
No, simply find the x at which you start integrating.
So find the first intersection between the 2 graphs.
That's the point where you start integrating, right?
So I find the inverse of 1/x?
Solving 3 = 1/x gives the intersection between y = 3 and y = 1/x, right? That will give you your starting point for the integration.
Got x = 1/3

need help with quotient rule problems
nope
got the quotient rule
just don’t know what to do after i get this
it wants it simplified
g^2.
g^2*
simplify as it tells you to
i dunno how
just 1-x^2?
$x * x \neq x$
Brandon H#1125
so just-2
2x^2 is correct
how?
Brandon H#1125
x * x = x^2
no idea
do you know basic algebra
nope lmao
yup.
you need to be reviewing/leerIng algebra, not calculus
this is such "run before crawling" energy
adhd autism girl power

but ok
ok let's try this one thing:
what does 6a + 11a simplify to
17a
all that but negative
no...
damn
what do you have left?
uno
you have one apple left
correct
I LOVE ADVANCED CALUCLUS ⁉️⁉️🔥🔥
because this is the same shit
and no it is not calculus it is algebra which you are missing
2x^2 - x^2 = x^2
the numerator ends up as 1+x^2 and at that point there is nothing else to do.
2-1 = 1?
yes obv.
1-1 + 2x^2
yea but if there’s nothing to plug into it then it’s one
so it’s
1-1+2(1)
absolutely nothing. i am leaving it intact.
the -x^2 and +2x^2 combine into +x^2
that's what i said earlier twice already
52461026391552+x^530153835382577269253795193581582518428519348934299439941893?
don't troll
when you combined 6a + 11a into 17a, where did the six and the eleven go?
ok
it is the exact same thing only with different numbers, promise...
i trust lol
i news help simplifying this now
<@&286206848099549185>
need help simplifying this
look up "distributive law", "collecting like terms" and maybe "FOIL"

sorry for all the questions, but for some reason I cannot evaluate this even though it looks simple
here is my work
0/0 doesn't mean DNE
also $\sqrt[3]{x} - 1 \neq \sqrt[3]{x-1}$ either so your second step is formally right only by coincidence anywaay.
Ann
so none of this work is even remotely salvageable, sorry.
that's fine lol
there is a substitution here that can make your life easier: $t := \sqrt[6]{x}$ turns the limit into $$\lim_{t \to 1} \frac{t^2 - 1}{t^3 - 1}.$$
Ann
t? is that like x
why didn't u just put x? just curious idk if there's any significant reason but I always notice that t is used for like substitution I think
but isn't t suppose to be 1
how can you substitute t for the square root thing if it's approaching 1
it is a different variable, but there's no sacred meaning to my choice of the letter t over the other 24 options i had.
what do you mean?
like when you're evaluating a limit, don't you normally plug in what it is approaching for the variable
also i am putting t as the sixth root of x.
and i'm not evaluating anything.
i'm making a substitution.
this turns your limit into a different limit that's equal to the old (in the strong sense -- meaning that if the old limit didn't exist, neither will this one) but is hopefully easier to evaluate
$t = x^{1/6}$
Ann
so $\sqrt[3]{x} = x^{1/3} = x^{\frac{1}{6} \cdot 2}$ and likewise $\sqrt{x} = x^{1/2} = x^{\frac16 \cdot 3}$

Bit confused by the first 2 questions, is it asking for the value at 1 on the x or y axis?
it's asking if you input x = 1 into g(x), what does g(x) equal
same for the second question but instead of x = 1 it's x = 0
Just because there is a hole in the function, that doesn't mean its value is absent
hold up im not gonna lie im lost
how do i solve for that without a given equation
OH nvm
so at x=1 the value is 3 and at x=0 its 1?

the problem is integral( (3x-1)/(x^2 -4x +29) )dx
I'm not sure what I was expecting when I tried to do the partial fractions
I'm just really confused rn
@unreal flare Has your question been resolved?
still need help with this?
yes please
ok
so you wanna get to a point where you can use a u-subsitution
i tried partial fractions on this didn't work
but u-sub did
oh interesting
maybe i did the partial fractions wrong hahaha but i'm pretty confident with the u-sub
I don't have to use partial for this one so it's ok I think
ok. then plain ol' u-sub then
for u sub maybe I could separate it like 3x/(x^2 -4x +29) - 1/(x^2 -4x +29)
you're right maybe I should make u = 3x -1
sure, but the bottom is x^2
true then u = (x^2 -4x +29)
can't do that
maybe if there is a way to make the numerator 2x -4
Yes!
:O
How would you do that?
add 0?
you don't want to add JUST 0
you want to write 0 in a fancy way
a - a is still 0
So you want to add something and subtract at the same time
Something that will that 2x-4 show up
Yeah, no rush
ahh I'm not sure what to do
oh wait actually...
no..
I'm not sure
can I have another hint lol
$3\frac{2}{2}x-1 + (5-5)$
TooManyCooks
😨
Hahaha too much ?
I'm just a bit confused how you would think of that 😭
Like I said, you want to get 2x-4
yesyes
I literally just forced it to show up by adding things
for example, that -1
is by itself
what would I add to -1 to get 4?
and we want 2x, so you multiply by 2/2
Yes! You got it!
mm I'm actually a bit confused by this one
I know I said it but I didn't get it
I got the 5
I'm not sure how that gets you 2x
Well, I multiplied by 1
Adding 0 and multiplying by 1 doesn't change the value of the function
true 💀
Since we have 3x, i inserted a 2/2
ok heard
You can group things up, so you get (3/2) (2x)
Sure, take your time
can you take out the 3/2 as a constant?
Yes!
But only on the first term
I'm afraid you're stuck with the 5 on the other term
so I have ((3/2)(2x) -4 -5)/(x^2 -4x +29)
would I be able to u sub from here even tho the 3/2 is connected to the 2x?
only on the first term
the u-sub you're doing right now is only useful on the first term
the x-term
you still have the term with 5
that's a different problem
but we can deal with that later
,rcw
by the way, the substitution i gave you earlier (the trick with the +0 and x1) isn't the actual answer
that was just a hint 😅
just making sure we're clear
anyway that's right
except for a sign
oh wait it's right tho
The hint I gave you earlier is VERY close to the true one
you just need to make a slight adjustment
but that should be a +5
Let me see what you have so far. we can work through it
LIke how did you do the trick part
i'll send a photo i just p much like added and distributed
(sorry it's dark my roommate is asleep)
OH
yeah it's that one
MY BAD
all good
Yeah the proper grouping was -6 + 5. you got it
ok so the first integral is like (3/2)ln|x^2 -4x +29|
for the second on i thought like take the 5 out as a constant for simplification and then maybe
idk if this works algebraically can you like separate the denominator that's not allowed right
i'm trying to think outside of the box rn 😭
Here's a hint. Arctan
Sure
What do you think?
i feel like i could use that 5
but i've been staring at this problem for an hour so i've lost all concept of algebra
if i use the 5 uhhhh
How about you factor 25 from the denominator?
😶
but there is no 25 in front of the u so should i multiply the top by 25 maybe possibly
PLS HAHAHA
oh! I think so
one moment
so it's like 1/(u^2 + 5^2) right so
there's a 5 on top
Do you have an integral formula for that?
I mean there's 1/(x^2 +1)
Ok so how can you get that 1?
exactly yes so
multiply the top by another 5 maybe
but
you can't just do that so
I know I'm missing something I'm sorry my bad
No that's fine, that's why we're doing this
My suggestion is to factor out 25 from the denominator
That will give you 1
Now all you need to do is the z^2 part
but how can you do that when there is no 25 in front of the u?
25/25
Yes!
Not really the grouping I had in mind
How about this
Factor x from (1+x)
What do I multiply x with that gives me 1+x
1*x = 1+x?
I'm not
Wait what. What's up with the right side
I thought you had u^2 +25
I DO sorry ok one sec
No worries
i can take the 1/25 out as a constant
What about the integral?
since d/dx arctanx = 1/(x^2 + 1) dx
i think the integral of 1/((1/25)u^2 +1) is
25arctanu maybe i think
Do another sub
ok bet
Maybe v this time 😂
Not quite
v = 1/25 ?
That doesn't have u 
Hint: 25 = 5^2
withering away
Ok good
oh
ohhhh this workkkkskssss
it's all coming together now...
i did it my keyboard just isn't working
thank you sm for your patience
So what's the final answer?
yes
x-2
might wanna change that when you rewrite it
Cool. Also, fun fact, the quadratic inside the log has no real roots
so it never touches 0
which means the abs value sign is not necessary
that's actually v cool
Aight. Feel free to close when you're done

I’m not sure how to solve this
Like I need someone to explain everything to me step by step in full detail, I’d appreciate it if you drew it out aswell 😭
you're basically just filling in a blank. v is just a missing number
do you know what that 2 means?
above the v
yeah, what number would v be?
there's a second solution too
no, there are two
well, but that's just 3
Which equals 3^2
3 x 3 equals nine
right, which is why 3 is the square root of 9
and why 3 is one of your solutions
but there's a different number too
remember (negative number) x (negative number) = (positive number)
yep
3^2 = 9
(-3)^2 = 9
yes bcs a negative x a negative equals a positive
yep 👍
Can I add another question
I’m tryna get through this whole lesson
I’m 30 minutes
sure
Whoops wrong one
√x² = |x| and not just x
so what if I said
I have two numbers
and when I multiply them, I get 0
what can you tell me about my two numbers?
I think you can tell me a bit more than that
Let me write that down
How can I make it into a zero
Doesn’t the s need to be the same
you've got (s+2) (s+8) = 0
That's two numbers (s+2) and (s+8), and when you multiply them you get 0
sort of. There are two solutions
yes, s can only have one value at a time. but there are two different values you can give it that will make the equation equal 0
like how in the last one, v could be 3, or v could be -3
it's not both at the same time, but either one will make the equation true
So
Every equation like the last one will be a positive and a negative
For the two solutions
I'm hesitant to say every time
x^2 = -1 doesn't have any real solution, for example
because x times x will always be positive, never -1
Oh yea
Because
It’s an exponent
Can’t make it a negative if the 1st number is a positive
But for this equation
Equation
or even if the first number is negative
(positive) times (positive) = (positive)
(negative) times (negative) = (positive)
yes
so if you have v^2 = (negative), that's not possible
Just break them into two equations
for the (x+2)(x+8) one, you mean?
yes
so, you agreed that if we multiply two things and get 0, one of them has to be 0, right?
yes
so you're multiplying (s+2) (s+8) and getting 0, according to the equation
which means either
s+2 = 0
or
s+8 = 0
one of them has to be equal to 0 in order for their product to equal 0
but it’s adding
no, (s+2)(s+8) means (s+2) x (s+8)
Okay
what number would s have to be in order for s+2 to equal 0?
-2
It just makes the 8 go down to a 6
(s + 2)(s + 8)
(-2 + 2)(-2 + 8)
(0)(6)
right, only one or the other has to equal 0, in order for the whole thing to equal 0
that's why there are two solutions
Woah
yeah lol, it's cool, right?
sure, i'll still be here for a minute
ah, okay, this is similar to the last one, but we need to factor it first
Oh okay
since we only have two terms here, maybe there's something we can factor out?
do you know what I mean by that?
yes!
it's like that, in reverse
h^2 - 23h
what do you notice those two terms have in common?
They both have the variable, h
yeah, so, that means we should be able to "un"distribute that h
in other words
we can rewrite
h^2 - 23h
as
h ( blank - blank)
so like, what would go in those two blanks, so that when you distribute the h, you get h^2 - 23h
Oh yea
23
so then
h^2 - 23h is the same as
h(h-23)
if you distribute that h, you get the same thing again
But it’s just in a looop
yes
so now we're back to a situation like the last one
h (h-23) = 0
two things multiplied = 0
h and (h-23)
yes, that's one solution
Oh yay
h(h-23)
0(0-23)
0(-23)
0
I cant think of another solution
remember you have two things multiplied, and the product is 0
so, if either one is 0, the whole thing is 0
h (h-23) = 0
you made the first factor (h) equal 0
but how could you make the other factor (h-23) equal 0?
By multiplying the h by each number in the ()
nah, don't distribute
h (h-23) = 0
means either
h must equal 0
or h-23 must equal 0
H HERE SOUKD BE 23
well I guess that’s all
You don’t know how much. I appreciate it
Thank you so much
sure thing 👍

Find the vector function parametrized in term so of $t$ that represents the curve of intersection of the paraboloid $z = 2x^2 + 4y^2$ and the cylinder $y = 3x^2$
o.O
It tells me the first component of the vector function, $\vec r(t) = (t, ..., ...)$
o.O
The first step I took was to subsitute $3x^2$ for $y$ for the paraboloid, but I got stuck after that. $$z = 2x^2 + 4y^2 = 2x^2 + 4(3x^2)^2 = 2x^2 + 36x^4 = 2x^2(1 + 18x^2)$$
o.O
would I substitute $x = t$, creating $z = 2t^2 + 36t^4$ and $y = 3t^2$ which gives $\vec r(t) = (t, 3t^2, 2t^2 + 36t^4)$?
o.O

How would you parameterized x-y+z=1?
Yes, you may first want to change the variables to incremental coordinates as you are now working with a parameterized equation
from there you can try and set x = u. y=v, z can be a function of both u and v so z= u,v
