Idk what im doing man
no you cannot distribute the square like that on the left hand side
Danny is here, whats up man, long time no see
lol you might have me confused for someone else. i just joined this server like an hour ago
yup ik, how can you even forget about me?, we were frnds dude
okay enough, so @formal tiger
Hi
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.
you could possibly be jailed for doing this
you know how you isolated the square root on one side and squared it?
just do that again
show me what you got so far
before you square it. move everything on the left side that isnt the square root to the right hand side.
but useing algebra
oh my bad. i misunderstood your handwritting lol
yeah so square both sides now
to get ride of the square root
Ok
I still got itbwrong
😭
The answer is 6
But idk how to get there
Waitt
NVM
I GOT IT
I FORGOT AB THE OTHER SIDE
YAYY THANK U DANNY
congratz

plz someone help me through this
i never learned something similar like this in class
have you worked with the distance between two points?
yes
we did distance and midpoint formula
great
isnt it just pythag
so if we know that the distance between (0,n) and (5,0) is n+1, can we set up an equation to find n?
nvm
yeah
in the form of distance formula?
the distance formula should be equal to n+1, right?
yes
so how could we set up an equation for that
d= square root of (5-0)^2 + (0-n)^2 ?
what does the second point mean, "State another point that is the same distance from (5,0) that has x- coordinate 0"
that's the distance, but we also know that d=n+1
so we could say sqrt((5-0)^2 + (0-n)^2) = n+1
okay
now we can answer the question ("find the value of n") by just solving for n
do write the general formula since the problem asks you to, too
right, now we just need to solve for n
do i substitute the distance formula with n+1
im not sure how to solve for n this way
fede
okay
how can we "reverse" the square root?
if you make the swuare root.and reverse it it after without using it why would you make the square root in the first place?
squaring it?
because our goal here is to find the n that makes that distance formula give you n+1
fede
i'm going to change a little thing before we move on
we know (-n)^2 = n^2, which will make things a bit easier
mhm
so $5^{2}+n^{2} = (n+1)^{2}$
fede
what would be the next step if we want to isolate n?
hmm, check this
if we expand the terms on the right, we will get an n^2 on both sides
after you do the next step
and if we get an n^2 on both sides, we can substract them
so expanding the terms on the right seems to make the most sense
ohh ok so are we distributing the square?
5^2 + n^2 = n^2 + 1
fede
hm
in this case a=n and b=1
righyt
wanna know, what grade is this question?
so what would the equation look like
we are expanding (n+1)^2 to try to express it in another way that can help us find n easier
that is one way to do it! We will arrive at the same result as applying this formula
how do we expand that
wait so are we subsituting the contents for that formula
we are expanding (n+1)^2
if a=n and b=1, we would get n^2 + 2*n*1 + 1^2
so we get n^2 + 2n + 1
does that make sense?
yes
so in the end we have $5^2 + n^2 = n^2 + 2n + 1$
fede
and here is where we can do what we said earlier
25
so we have $25 = 2n+1$
fede
so n=12
that's correct
wowzers
i had no idea i had to like
apply algebra formulas to geometry equations
yeah! everything is connected
how would i state the point now?
if n=12, what is (0,n)
oh right
(0,12)
how would i do the last part of the question ?
where i have to state another point
the wording is a bit unclear to me.. let me try to understand what we have to do here
okk
OHHH i got it
okay
so we know that if the x coordinate is 0, the point will look like (0,y) right?
yes
and the distance to (5,0) is the same, n+1. since n=12, the distance must be 13
so $\sqrt{5^2+y^2} = 13$
fede
ok
question why are we squaring the y
is it because the coordinates are x^2 and y^2
i simplified it a bit, it's (y-0)^2
oh ok i got u
since we have (5,0) and (0,y)
okay so, like we did earlier, we square to remove the square root
so we get?
5^2+y^2 = 13^2 ?
Result:
169
$y^2 + 25 = 169$
fede
so is y^2 = 144
right, and now we have to be a bit careful
we can take the square root, but we'll have two solutions
plus or minus
hmmmhm
$y = \pm\sqrt{144}$
fede
fede
now, the positive value was the one we already knew, that is, (0,12)
yes
so the other point that is at that distance is...
(0,-12)
that's right
yayy
and that's it
thank you
i completely forgot all the formulas used in algebra so i was struggling lol
i get it now though
np!

I don’t understand why it’s C
I mean just intuitively think about the graphs
one makes a _/
The other makes a /-
you could formalize this with l'hôpitals rule ig
Hopefully it's clear, for each of the rows, which function "is larger than" which
C is unique in that the "larger" function is in the denominator
What about e^x / x^2
e^x gets larger than x²
So e^x / x² approaches infinity
,w graph e^x / x^2 between 0.5 and 10
Is there a chart where I can know which x values grow faster
For a while x² can hold e^x off, but e^x really blows up after a while
- Exponentials are always bigger than
- Polynomials, which are always bigger than
- logarithms
That's basically the chart haha
C has a logarithm over an exponential, so that function gets very small, and approaches 0.
Isn't e^x slower than x^2? That would result in denominator growing faster and equaling to 0

can someone help me find the table of values of this quadratic function
h(t)=-16t²+30t+5
is there some specific values you want to evaluate for?
Yes. At time = 0, h(t) models the height of the object. So h(0) is the initial height
h(2) is already wrong
no it is not correct
okay
can you show how you evaluated h(2)?
Your function is $h(t) = -16t^2 + 30t + 5$
WhoTao
Evaluating h(t) at t = 2, you literally replace wherever you see a t with 2
For example, $-16t^2$, you replace t with a 2. So it becomes $-16(2)^2$
WhoTao
your mistake here, is that you did not use that the first term is $-16t^2$. Instead you used $-16t$
WhoTao
I think she just forgot the ^2 part because if you look at the right, it says -16 * 4 and 4 = 2^2
Ok. So you should have $h(2) = -16(2)^2 + 30(2) + 5 = -16(4) + 65 = -64 + 65 = -1$
WhoTao
So you mustve made a mistake computing -16(4) + 65
this guy helped me also:)
-64 + 65 = 1
Not -1
@fossil lodge
Nope
what is 3^2?
h(3)
$3^2 \neq 3 \cdot 2$
CaptainNova22
What is the value of 3^2
I thought its gonna be 3^2 cause im solving for h(3)
6
wha
$3^x$ means you are multiplying $3$ by itself $x$ times.
WhoTao
oh so 9
ohh so -49?
yes
go to this website
type in
h(t)=-16t^2+30t+5
then type in h(a), where a is the number you want to evaluate function h(x) at
then you can chek your answer
ill just solve it using like this
you are missing a equal sign
What type of function is h(x)?
Linear? Quadratic? log? absolute value?
You also have a table of values
just connect the dots on your graph based on your function type
Quadratic
help

I need help solving geometric sequences and my assignment is already past due 😭
ask
what do i need to ask? (Sorry im new here)
okay uh is there a formula for finding geometric series?
looking for the S term
Hello
?
<@&286206848099549185> sorry for ping
Please only use the <@&286206848099549185> ping once if your question has not been answered for 15 minutes. Please do not ping or DM individual users about your question.
here
like if you have 1 + 3 + 9 + ... + 3^5 is there a formula for the sum?
sure
sorry its side ways
,rccw
for an infinite one it's $\f a{1-r}$ where $a$ is the first term and $r$ is the rtio
haylsGhost
okay
important: that only works if r is less than 1
ill keep note for that, but what about the other problem like the find S 11
You can get this by simple Google search
I tried but I couldn't find any for the specific one. Unless I'm writing it wrong. sorry if i'm being difficukt
nevermind I found
one last thing
actually nvm
sorry

To translate:
Look at the following function g(x) = f(x^2). Show that the following is true: T_4g(x)=T_2f(x^2)
It is around the point a = 0
where f : R -> R where the function satisfies f(^n) exists for all n
How does one start such a problem?
what are T2 and T4?
@carmine root Has your question been resolved?
sorry i didnt ping the reply
i think this should work as a ping
and see if it works?

my question is though
to show that they are different
do i expand g(x) and f(x^2)?
but it says g(x)=f(x^2)

please. help. me.

can you explain to me
how that simplification happens
because i dont understand
x^3 where does it come from?
😦
The first and third rationals have been multiplied by x/x so that the denominators are the same
So it becomes this:
yes
$-\frac{x(x^2-2x+1)e^{-x}}{5x^2} - \frac{(x^2-2x+1)^{-x}}{5x^2} + \frac{x(2x-2)e^{-1}}{5x^2}$
M. Frost
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Now distribute the x's and then do your addition/subtraction
but only the first and third terms, because the second already has 5x^2 as a denominator
Essentially before you can add them together you need a common denominator
Try simplifying it from that point on and see what you get
wat
oh yes
thank you

✅
$\frac{x\left((2x-2)e^{-x} - (x^2 - 2x + 1)e^{-x}\right) - \left(x^2-2x+1\right)e^{-x}}{5x^2} = \frac{x\left((2x-2)e^{-x}\right)}{5x^2} - \frac{x\left(x^2-2x+1\right)e^{-x}}{5x^2} - \frac{\left(x^2-2x+1\right)e^{-x}}{5x^2}$
When those are broken up, you can cancel the x in the nominator with one of the x's in the denominator for those two terms
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Leaving you with 5x in the denominator of two of them, and 5x^2 in the third

So my input domain is $\Omega^{25}$ let's denote it as $I$ for input
Where $\Omega = {\emptyset, A, B,..., Z}$

so i had a math test today and i wrote the equation in red
and ig the uniform way to do it is in blue
would i get points off even though they form the exact same graph
depends on the instructor, technically the generalized absolute value is of the form $a|x-b|+c$, if it was up to me I wouldn't
worst case you can always take it up with your instructor after they grade it :)

I wonder when we have the original function of y = f(x)^2, will the transformation be y = f(2(x+3)^2) or y = f(2(x+3))^2? One has the exponent inside, the other has the exponent outside.
And if given y = f(1/2x+3), when I factor 1/2 out to find the transformation, will the function become y = f(1/2(x+6)) or y = f(1/2(x+3))?

tatpoj
After all, if you distribute on the right, (1/2) times 6 is 3, right?
@regal abyss Has your question been resolved?
Yes I understand this
Any ideas on this one?
not rlly the same
bc that for ^2 outside is the result of f(x) ^2
other one have f(x), but it's x who ^2

Let V = R^3x3 be the real vector space with all 3 x 3 matrices with real coefficients. There si given following three subparts of V:
- W1, the amount of all triangle matrices in V
- W2, the amount of all diagonalmatrices in V
- W3 = ...
A)
Check that all W1, W2 and W3 are subspaces of V
aight
- I do not know what is meant with triangle matrices
- Isn't this obvious?
- Not sure what is meant
this is the idea
for upper triangular matrices, the diagonal and above can be whatever you want
with triangle
- if it's obvious to you, you should certainly be able to prove it
Diagonal is:
100
010
001
Right?
well you can have anything on the diagonal
$\begin{bmatrix} \pi & 0 & 0 \ 0 & \sqrt{2} & 0 \ 0 & 0 & 42\end{bmatrix}$ is diagonal
aPlatypus
yes
number 1: the zero vector in w is in v
number 2: for any u, v in W, u+v is in W
number 3: for any v in W, v*c is in W
so yes, that would make it a subspace
am I right?
those are the conditions for being a subspace yes
It should fill those
In a way, W1 and W2 are very similar
So they should both fill those conditions ?
x)
well
a scalar for any diagonal still keeps it a diagonal
a diagonal + a diagonal = a diagonal
yeah ok fine I guess
a 0 diagonoal is also in V
they're easy to do
replace diagonal with triangle and its the same
and now there's no 3
the set of matrices A for which transpose of A = -A
that's what W3 is
it's just a variable to denote which object we're talking about
A belongs to the 3x3 matrices and A = -A^T
and the set is composed all the objects A satisfying these conditions
hm
A is a really small group then
well idk
can it even exist
the transposed is where you change row to pillar and pillar to row
how A = - the transposed of A i dont know
aPlatypus
oh i see
you can check it works
they're called antisymmetric matrices
for symmetric matrices you have the equation A^T = A btw
well you can also + these together
scalar * asymmetric = assymetric
assymetric + assymetric = assymetric
nvm
001 00-1 000
000 + 000 = 000
-100 100 000
i guess this one is both symmetric and assymetric
001 00-5 00-4
000 + 000 = 000
-100 100 000
i guessn this is a better example of why it doesnt work? @fluid axle
wdym
you're adding 3D vectors, or I'm misunderstanding completely what you wrote
im adding 3x3 matrices
?
oh true
cuz the number is not the same in both places
is:
000
000
000
considered assymetric? @fluid axle
yes
0 matrix transposed is also the 0 matrix, and 0 = -0
you have to work with the A = -A^T condition
well it is
next i need to find the basis and dimensions
you haven't really justified why
gonna need more than, oh diagonal + diagonal = diagonal this time
well first of all the 0 vector is in both
asymmetric + asymmetric kan result in a normal asymmetric or just the 0 vector
but the 0 vector is also regarded as asymmetric
is there more to it than that?
oh and if you take the scalar of the asymmetric you also get an asymmetric one
this is too vague
that's my issue
Maybe im not good at explaining
you know antisymmetric matrices satisfy A = -A^T
so say I take two matrices A and B, with A = -A^T, and B = -B^T
and you want to show C = A+B satisfies C = -C^T
if you manage to show that, you show that the sum of two matrices in W3 is also in W3
you mean V?
it's what your question called it
$\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & -1 \ 0 & 0 & 0 \ 1 & 0 & 0\end{bmatrix}$
ehd
wtf
you need to add the double slashes back between the lines
$\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 1 \ 0 & 0 & 0 \ -1 & 0 & 0\end{bmatrix}$
ehd
yes
00-x 00-y 00-x-y
000 + 000 = 000
x00 y00 x+y00
regardless of value of x and y, you end up with a product that is assymmetric
yes
my point is that you don't need to find all the antisymmetric matrices explicitly
just work with the condition given to be an antisymmetric matrix
C^T you mean
wait nvm my brain fried for a second
that is true indeed
yeah
you want to make appear (A+B)^T = C^T in your equality somehow
I'm saying the thing you have to show has C^T in it
yeah exactly that works
C = A + B
= -A^T - B^T
therefore
-C = A^T+B^T
= (A+B)^T
= C^T
so C = -C^T
so if A and B are antisymmetric, then C=A+B is also antisymmetric
it's certainly easier than trying to find what all the antisymmetric matrices look like
but you'll have to do this anyway if you want a basis
x)
true
Why is this listed as a possible basis when you cannot create:
100
000
00-1
@fluid axle
oh
I dont get it though
why is this the base
when thsi si the basis for W2
Would 1 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
also be considered a diagonal matrix ?
if you think more about A^T = -A, it means that the elements swapped around the diagonal are opposites of one another
So the basis is a representation of all possible combinations with a scalar
yes
but the basis in w2 doesnt give us something that results in:
100
010
001
so what ?
you can also get
100
000
000
with this basis
so theres an infinite amount of basis?
2 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
you can also get
100
000
000
with this
you can write all diagonal matrices as a linear combination of
100
000
000
000
010
000
000
000
001
there are infinitely many diagonal matrices
okay, I get it
but you can get them all from those three matrices in the basis
right, and you can get all assymetric with a linear combination of:
yes
and we are allowed to * and + to create new linear combinations right ?
yes
that's what a linear combination is all about
$$\begin{bmatrix}a&0&0 \0 & b &0 \0&0&c\end{bmatrix} = a\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0 \0 & 0 &0 \0&0&0\end{bmatrix} + b\begin{bmatrix}0&0&0 \0 & 1&0 \0&0&0\end{bmatrix} + c\begin{bmatrix}0&0&0 \0 & 0&0 \0&0&1\end{bmatrix} $$
aPlatypus
you can get all diagonal matrices as a linear combination of the 3 matrices
and there's only one way to do so for each diagonal matrix
that's what makes this set of 3 matrices a basis (of the space of diagonal matrices)
@vast holly
right
thanks for dealing with me. I have a lot of questions
You up for some more questions?
yup
you're very kind
indeed
Which of the following are subspaces of C[Z], where C[Z] is a polynomial with complex coefficients
okey
Well the first one is basically a copy of C[Z] right?
the 0 polynomial is also just 0 in C[Z]
yup, this one's not too hard
now there's still the sum and the multiplication to look at
(you prolly don't want to write all the polynomials with p(0) = 0)
wdym specifically ?
i dont know how to explain it better
p(Z) is in C[Z] and p(0) = 0
thats broad
p(0) = 0 in C[Z] also
there's a way to argue like that rigorously (with isomorphisms), but it's convoluted and not the point of an intro question like that
it's mostly to see if you know well the definition of what a subspace is, and you are able to use it effectively on examples
How would you word it?
there's also the problem that if you haven't seen what isomorphisms are, it's just gonna be completely arcane to you
but the basic idea is, look at the map $F : \mathbb C [Z] \to W_1$, defined by $$F( p(Z) ) = Zp(Z)$$
aPlatypus
it's a linear map, and it's bijective (for each output in W1, you have a unique input polynomial in C[Z] which corresponds to it)
so that essentially means that W1 is a copy of C[Z]
but the problem is that for the concept of linear map to make sense, you need to know that W1 is a vector space already
so that argument justfies the copy part, you still need to know that W1 is a subspace
you won't avoid using the definition of subspace
it will drilled in your brain forever
@vast holly
I dont kno wisomorphisms
haha
yeah
but I think I got a clear idea now
a subspace is a vector space where all combinations are true for another space with a higher number of combinations
and those combinations stay in the subspace, they don't end up in the bigger space
and ofc where all combinations are a result of addition and multiplication
and yes stay within the defined subspace
yep indeed
^
that's essentially what the conditions 2 and 3 mean
you can't multiply two polynomials together
you can just add polynomials
or scale them by a number
that's the only things you can do in a vector space
the even bigger problem to me is
"what do you do of the zero polynomial?"
okay
how do you even talk about the multipliclity of its roots?
Z^2 has 0 as a root of multiplicity 2 already
right
oh
yeah so it cant be in
Why did the teacher write that its not a subspace because Z*(Z-1)+Z = Z^2....
I thought we are not allowed to say Z* something since its not a normal scalar??
yeah sorry I guess I screwed up a bit in my terminology (or i was a bit imprecise at least)
Z(Z-1) is a polynomial in its own right
Z^2 - Z if you want
it's just that I had the give a coefficient to each degree vision
Z(Z-1)+1*Z = Z^2
you can't say Z is in W1, so Z*Z should be in W2 if W2 should be a subspace though
that's what I was trying to say before
your space ?
changed my sentence
@vast holly
it is
haha
and it's getting a bit late anyway

Is this the same as saying a x^2 + y^2 = 1 circle? (but obv with x_1 & x_2)?
what do you mean?
yeah that is kinda what i meant, should've probably made that distinction. But it would be the same as x^2 + y^2 <= 1?
@dull plover Has your question been resolved?
yes
if you are talking about real and imaginary parts
as x and y
is it not just on the real plane?
this is a complex notation
this is the whole context of the question
so yeah this is exactly the same as that

<enumitem>
Suppose that in a senior college class of 500 students it is found that 210 smoke, 258 drink alcoholic beverages, 216 eat between meals, 122 smoke and drink alcoholic beverages, 83 eat between meals and drink alcoholic beverages, 97 smoke and eat between meals, and 52 engage in all three of these bad health If a member of this senior class is selected at random, find the probability that the student:
\env{enumerate}[[(a)]]{
\ii smokes but doesn't drink alcoholic beverages,
\ii eats between meals and drinks alcoholic beverages but doesn't smoke.
\ii neither smokes nor eats between meals
}
So, we have the following:
\env{alignat*}[{3}]{
\abs A &= 210 &\qq \abs B &= 258 &\qq \abs C &= 216 \\
\abs{A \cap B} &= 122 & \abs{B\cap C} &= 83 &\abs{A\cap C} &= 97 \\
&& \abs{A\cap B \cap C} &= 52 &&
}
So, for (b) the expression for the cardinallity would be $\abs{\overline A \cap B \cap C}$, but I can't seem to find a nice expression to evaluate that from what i have
same, BnC =AnBnC + BnCnA'
its like total probabilities theorem its the same
your partition E in A and A'
GOSH
WHY DID I NOT SEE THAT
FSDNF
😭
okay so for (c)
would it be
[
\abs{\overline A \cap \overline C} = \abs B - \abs{A\cap B} -\abs{B\cap C} + \abs{A\cap B \cap C}
]
idk about what the B does
f latex
|A'nC'| = |E| - (|AuC|) = |E| - (|A|+|C| -|AnC|)
what is E
like this is the region right
what A'nC' represents
so its |B| - the intesections with C and A + the intersection of all of them so we dont undercount
oh wait
i see my mistake
okay
not A'nC' is just everything thats not AuC
draw C'
and A'
in different colors
like hash it
it basically becomes the region in red plus the whole rectangle excluding A and C
righht
oksu
okay
i got the idea
thanks a lot!
wait
something is weird
i get 196/500
but the answer key is saying 171/500
ooo nvm

Is the correct answer to this question: zero for both cases, because the magnitude of the component in which directs to B is the dot product between them, and the dot product between two perpendicular vectors produces zero
^ and vice versa, hence zero for both cases
yeah
you can also just like think about it: if you're going 100% north then you're going 0% east and west

Hay everyone.
im stuck on question (f)
I answered this question already and I got -28
But I was wrong as the answer is 44.
.
I got -28 because I calculated 4x first = 8
Then I calculated 6xy = 36.
8 - 36 = -28
you sure 6xy = 36? (hint: if you are, you shouldn't be)
hi artemetra hope you are well
ill try calculate it again
wait it should be -6xy actually i believe
as there is a - before it
uh
-(-36)
yeah
8-(-36)=8+36
hmm okay so its -6 x 2 x -3 = 36
oh wait you said it wasnt 36 for 6xy
would the correct calculation for 6xy be (-6 x 2 x -3)?
@tulip leaf Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
yes you got it
but it should be -6xy because there is a negative here?
you’re very welcome!
first, 6xy=-36
then 4x is 8
hay croustibest yeah but shouldnt it be -6xy though?
that was what i was confused about
8-- 36=8+36=44
because there is a negative sign before 6xy
yeah cuz 2--2=2+2
u substracted where u should have add
that's all
as -2*-2 =4 and not -4
oh yeah lol thank you Croustibest
my original calculation for -6xy was -6 x 2 x -3 = 36
ah yes
I did 8 - 36 which is why my answer was -28 at first.
because it was 4v - 6xy so I thought I had to do 8 - 36.
I get this now yay🙂
appreciate you Croustibest
Have a great night Croustibest
