hello
ill just send the problem in a second
now i dont know what the formula is and im kinda lost
<@&286206848099549185>
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.
the problem is it dues in 53 mins so i was a little worried, mb
nope, hw
just its 11:09 pm here and its due next day
so at 12 you cant submit it
i didnt really understand the lesson when the teacher told us but i understand pretty much everything except this
<@&286206848099549185>
it's thales theorem that you should use
i did it but i think there was a mistake when i did it, so can you try and apply it
ok
so
25/(25+10) = x/42 = 35/(35+y)
and you solve for y and x each one at a time
just like a regular equation
wdym, a mistake while solving for x and for y or you didn't apply the theorem properly?
i think i didnt apply it correctly
but also a quick question it says why are the two triangles similar, what did you use to determine this
these two questions are required so can you check it out if you dont mind
<@&286206848099549185>
oh of course
okay
i study maths in french so the terms are quite different
i gotta look them up before i answer
take ur time
Can I just ask what the question was?
this
last one is corresponding angles
Oh it seems like you got an answer already
but can you please answer the first one
because i study maths in french
so when terms are technical i gotta translate

ignore the question marks cause i did it in another word processor
just take a quick look
Okay, I thought this was an algebraic problem but this looks like geometry which to be honest with you I am struggled in, a lot, so I don't want to give you the wrong answers.
go for it, i dont mind
i mean for the first one which says why are the two triangles similar maybe you can help in
or should we get another helper?
you are taking the long run just calculate it no need to get to numbers like 1050
but the answers are correct
oh great
Okay I can do my best to help you out, but I prefer to get another helper, just so you don't get the wrong answer if this is homework.
oh okay, idk any specific helper here since im kinda new so maybe u can try
but just incase let me tag them
<@&286206848099549185>
Okay I will give it my best, but can I ask you do you know what corresponding angles, arem knowing those terms would make a problem like this much more simpler to solve.
y = 14
x is 30 tho right?
yh
of course
.
aight let me submit it and tell you the mark
wish me luck
oh great full mark
Thanks. @knotty dew , @tepid narwhal you guys are the best

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, I got the Tree's height to be 32
If that is: The tree =b
Last time I checked the Hypotenuse is the "c" in the Pythagorean Theorean
yes
no
what?
yeah
OH!!
I forgot that b is still squared
so then what??
oh
so sqr root of 32=b?
wait
the answer is weired though
like
oh nm
the question says to round
to the nearest tenth
wait
lemme check if the answer is right

Can I have help with this equation please:
f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c
f(x-1) + f(x) + f(x+1) = x^2 + 1
What is f(2)?
My math teacher gave it to us as a challenge and while it’s not required I have solved every other math challenge she threw at us with little struggle, this one however has stumped me and I would like to know how to solve it
try taking that second equation and applying the definition of f(x)
and then see if you can figure out a, b, and c
I did and it simplified down to 14a + 6b + 3c = x^2 + 1
I don’t know if you can put in 2 as x on the other side of the equals sign but if you can it’s 5
where'd all the x's go
But the answer shouldn’t have and variables because when rounded it’ll be the answer to a safe
They were put in as 2 should they not have?
take this equation
f(x-1) + f(x) + f(x+1) = x^2 + 1
and apply this equation
f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c
Right so (a(x-1)^2 + b(x-1) + c) + (a(x)^2 + b(x) + c) + (a(x+1)^2 + b(x+1) + c) = x^2 + 1
yep
Is that simplified
3(ax^2) + 2a + 3(bx) + 3c = x^2 +1 ?
Or did I do something wrong
And where do I go next
compare coefficients
Because if I’m trying to find f(2) wouldn’t I just replace x with 2
How do I do that
a?
no...
3?
no..
Then what’s a coefficient
the number infront of the x^2
you have 3ax^2
so your coefficient is 3a
Ok
1
so what can you conclude form that
no..?
I’m confused
What do you mean
Yes
So a = 1/3?
yes
Wait but why should 3ax^2 equal x^2
because the left function is equal to the right function
But why isn’t the rest of that side included on this
We are just leaving out 2a + 3bx + 3c
we're comparing the coefficients individually
Why are we able to do that
But couldn’t it also be like a is one and b is 6x + 4
So they aren’t variables?
Ok that makes more sense
I was thinking of them as variables
So back to the original equation
A is 1/3
And the rest it
2/3 + 3bx + 3c = 1
you still havent determined b and c
Right
what is the coefficient of x on the left
3b
on the right?
0?
yes
do the same thing
But c isn’t a coefficient of x
1
and your constant on the left?
3c
only 3c?
And 2a
and what was a?
1/3
now can you find c?
So c is 1/6?
really?
Yeah 1/9 right?
yeah
thats the point
you got a b c
put it back into f(x)
put x = 2 inside f(x)
get answer
yeah

Proof that gcd(a,b) = gcd(b, r)
Where r = a mod b
I don't get it
a = bq + r
a - bq = r
gcd(a,b) divides a-bq, therefore must also divide r?
What am I missing? <@&286206848099549185>
@limpid roost Has your question been resolved?
gcd(a,b) divides b, r based on what you said, so it is a common divisor of b and r. But gcd(b,r) is the greatest common divisor of b and r.
This gives you a useful inequality.
To get the reverse inequality try and apply similar reasoning to show gcd(b,r) is a common divisor of a, b
Recall if X<=Y and Y<=X then Y=X
You had all the right ideas fwiw. Make sure to keep an eye on how your problems and definitions connect.
Seems pretty simple now.
Now I want to prove Bezout's lemma
If gcd(a,b) = 1 then there exist x and y st ax + by = 1

You can take 4 common and sum r 3 to 3o meaning 3+4+5+... +40 and multiple it by 4
n ??
What is n
l,a??
You can use simple add formula for natural number
1+2+3+...+n =n(n+1)/2
No you just need to add r 3 to 30 not whole function
Let me e
Let me explain
Your series is
4(3)+7+4(4)+7+...+4(30)+7
Right 👍
Now you can see how many time you need to add 7
And you can get 4 common
Like
4(3+4+5+...+30) +7+7...+7

"State the slope of the function in each interval and change in slope for each interval"
a) 6x+1/2x-4 b) 1/x^2-9
How do I find them?
@real moon Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Let f(x) equals (6x+1)/(2x-4)
We can calculate f’(x) for its slope
By quotient rule
f’(x)= -(13/2(x-2)^2)
When x =2, the denominator becomes 0, which leaves the function undefined at x =2
To see if the slope is going up in an interval or not, we can either sub in some values to check or calculate its second derivative

Separate the integral in two pieces so that you can integrate the parts as they are defined.
So, you would break it up into [-1,1] and [1,4]

why does it have no critical numbers?
i derivated it
and its -1/x^2
doesnt that mean the critical number should be 0?
but 0 is not in the domain of the original function
how could i know the domain?
well you can know for sure that 0 is not in the domain
functions stated with a formula are usually assumed to take the largest possible domain on which the formula is defined
but the formula 1/x is not defined at x = 0

Is this right so far?
each entry in the table is exclusive
"and" and "or" would be out of the total number of people
so, a is right
b so far is right
c and d are wrong
think about how many people ordered pizza or wings
this would be W and P, W and -P, -W and P
which is how many total?
56

this is for the numerator of c?
these are all the options for any box
forget everything i said, i apparently dont know what im talking about, the answers are fine
all of them ?

in spherical coordinates grad derivation
they came to this and said that they basically used chain rule but i dont understand how and on what they used the chian rule to come to that. can someone please explain
@waxen smelt Has your question been resolved?
@waxen smelt Has your question been resolved?
r, theta, and phi are each functions of x,y, z. I'm not sure what part of the chain rule you don't understand.
I know it's fairly obvious but I just can't see how
Del/Delr = delx/delr...
If you have a function f(r,theta,z) and you take the partial derivative of f with respect to r, and r is itself a function of x,y,z, the chain rule tells you to differentiate r with respect to x, y, and z.

13 = 65(2) +117(-1)
Owhh i see
Wait look at the next step after that
Its the samw as before
Why do that then
yeah , idk what they are doing
Hm i see
must be a mistake , just dont look at that step
13 = 65m + 117n
13 = 65(2) + 117(-1) from before
m = 2 , n = -1

@gaunt ravine Has your question been resolved?
@versed remnant similar problem as before i almost got it but got stuck again TT
Got that so far but idk where the other 81 went
-26(81) - 12(81)
81(-26-12)
81(-38)
-38(81)
Owh yeah lmao 😭
I legit can't see the obvious stuff in math
Sorry for bothering thank you

If we have a linear function f: R^2 -> R^3 and we know that f((1,3)) = (2,-3,-1) and f((3,2)) = (-4,6,0) can we know the dim() of the kernel and image? If so, what are they
so we know f is mapping 2 linearly independent vectors from the domain to 2 linearly independent vectors in the codomain right?
since (1,3), (3,2) are a basis for the domain, they will mapped to a basis of the image (the 2 R3 vectors)
@static nacelle are you still here?
I am I am
does that make sense so far?
yes
so what is the rank then?
yes, that! would be 2
yep, so what would the dim(kernel) be?
does that imply that the function is injective? since then dim(kernel) would be 0
but not surjective because for that it would need to have rank 3, correct?
you too 👍

Suppose that the shelf life, in years, of a certain perishable food product packaged in cardboard containers is a random variable whose probability density function is given by
\[
\m fx = \env{cases}{
e^{-x}, \q x >0, \\
0, \tqx{elsewhere}
}
\]
Let $X_1, \, X_2, \,$ and $X_3$ repesent the shelf lives for three of these containers selected independently. Find $\m\P{X_1 < 2, 1 < X_2 < 3, X_3 > 2}$
im a bit confused about something
what exactly is f(x) describing? the probability of what? and how do X_1, X_2, X_3 relate to it
fx is a PDF
yes, i get that
yes, i get that
you were working with these yesterday 
its describing the likelyhood of an event given its value
thats not my question. I am asking how do the extra random variables specified relate to the random variable that f(x) is describing the probability of
$X_1, , X_2, ,$ and $X_3$ follow the distribution that fx describes
they should have really said $X_1, X_2, X_3 \sim\text{Exp}(1)$
\sim
\dm So do we have $\m\P{X =x} = \m fx$ or like, $\m\P{X_1 = x, X_2 = x, X_3 = x} = \m fx$
or something
the first one (technically it only describes intervals not exact values because it's continuous but. the first one, not the second)
Spoon
no it's not a cdf
ok so like
what im meant to be doing is
,, \dm \m f{x_1, x_2, x_3} = \m f{x_1}\m f{x_2} \m f{x_3} = e^{-x_1-x_2-x_3}
and now like
,, \dm \m\P{X_1 < 2, 1 < X_2 < 3, X_3 > 2} = \int_{2}^\infty\int_1^3\int_0^2 e^{-x_1-x_2-x_3}\dd{x_1}\dd{x_2}\dd{x_3}
bro is using \dm now
i cant stand anything light 
i mean you could do it that way
or you could just use the fact that they're independent
and split $\mathscr{P}(X_1 < 2, 1<X_2<3, X_3>2)$ into $\mathscr{P}(X_1<2) \cdot \mathscr{P}(1<X_2<3) \cdot \mathscr{P}(X_3>2)$
ヘイリー
i'm so fancy u already know
so like
,, \dm\int_0^2 e^{-x_1} \dd{x_1} \cd \int_1^3 e^{-x_2}\dd{x_2} \cd \int_2^\infty e^{-x_3}\dd{x_3} = \int_{2}^\infty\int_1^3\int_0^2 e^{-x_1-x_2-x_3}\dd{x_1}\dd{x_2}\dd{x_3}
woops uhm
why are you putting braces around x_1
let him cook
this is right

you need braces after \dd or the spacing is wrong
,, \dd x_2
not for lex 
oh i didnt know that
im so used to bracing everything that has any subscripts
or superscripts
\dd doesnt take an argument 

lex can have little a brace, as a treat
is this true doe
yes
yes the integral is separable
thats just factorising the integrand
or whatever you call it
OH YEAH
the calculus thing where [ \iint \map fx \map gy \dd x \dd y= \int \map fx \dd x \int \map g y \dd y]
what
did i
oh i might have
varying
your brain should go factorise when you see independence anyway

independence and factorisation are synonymous almost

I got 2 chords that come from the same point the big one is 12cm and the smaller one is 10cm. The distance betwwen the small ones midpoint to the big chord is 4cm need to find the radius of the circle
any diagrams?
is it specified at which point of big chord does the line join?
No just its from the midpoint of the small one
i mean the only thing i can think is using pythagoras theorm but i doubt if it solves it
as we dont know if its a right triangle or if big chord crosses the origin of circle
if big chord goes through the origin i suppose
whats the answer as per answer key?
The answer is 6.25
i mean im getting 6.40 but i suppose the way im doing has lots of errors

I apologies in advance for my messy writing haha. The area of a rectangle is 20a^4b^4 − 8a^3^b + 6a^4b^3
. The length of one side of the rectangle is 2a2b . What is the length of the other side of the rectangle if a = 3 and b = 2 ? I feel like I did it way more complicated then it need to be.
I get 816 as well when I follow along your work. I don't see a quick way to do the problem, it's just a lot of work. You can save a bit of time if you look at (20a^4b^4 − 8a^3b + 6a^4b^3)/(2a^2b) and notice that the 2a^2b can cancel with everything in the numerator, but there's still a lot of calculations to do.

So the number that multiplies with x in trig functions is called "frequency"
Example:
Sin(3x)
Frequency = 3
Period = 2pi/frequency
even in tan graphs ?
Oh sorry
Pi/freq
so pi/2 ?
Because period of tanx = pi
Yes but youre in degree
So
180 degree/360 degree = pi/period
= freq
So the number you get from that is 1/2
Therefore the number you'd multiply to x is 1/2
Not 2
The period is twice as long as "normal", so the frequency is 1/2
wait i don't understand why it's 1/2 and not 2
a good way to think about it is like
recognise that tan(x) is asymptomatic at pi/2 *k
because cos(x) = 0 at pi/2
so, from your graph you can see that it's asymptomatic at pi's instead
so you want to multiply by a 1/2 for that pi/2 to appear at an instance of x = pi
ohhh wait i get it
I think of it this way:
The normal period is 180 degree
You have a 360 degree period
The period is twice as long, which means it takes twice as long for the x values to go through the period
Therefore you can imagine that the x values are being slowed down
Hence why you multiply by something less than 1
okay i think i get it
If you had a 90 degree period, you'd multiply by 2
Because you go through the period twice as fast
Yea that would agree with a tan curve that has a 360.degree period
ok let me try it
You find that number by doing
"Normal Period" / Actual Period

Hello. I have the following problem
d/dx[(x+1)*(3_sqrt((x+1)/(x-1))], find f'(2)
I am fine with what to do with the function to find f'(2) once I have found the derivative; however, I am having trouble getting the derivative.
I just do the product rule and then the quotient rule when I take the derivative of the second term, correct?
or is there an easier way to go about it?
can you show your attempt
$(x+1)\cdot\sqrt[3]{\frac{x+1}{x-1}}$ is that right?
was 3_sqrt supposed to represent cube root?
oh that would make more sense
ヘイリー
yes that is the problem
how did you handle the cube root?
i change it to powers
ok cool
what you describe will work but ummmm I'd recommend combining that (x+1) in front into the numerator
right, so quotient rule on ((x+1)(x+1)^1/3))/(x-1)
so the algebra will just kind of be annoying?
ヘイリー
can combine those into (x+1)^4/3

✅
just to clarify... so now i apply d/dx[(p'q-pq')/q^2] where in this case the p' and q' require the chain rule to be applied, yeah?
errrr the pqqp stuff is taking the derivative so the d/dx would go away atp
but yeah quotient rule will work for this
(or you can do what i tend to prefer and use negative exponents and the product rule)
and so rearrange it to (x+1)^4/3 * (x-1)^-1/3?
ohh okay thanks for telling me that
yeah
yeah that is a nicer way to solve it. thank you

i just wanted some clarifications on this question. i have an idea on how to solve it but i wanted to know if its correct and if it could be cleaned up a bit
my current working theory is proof by contrapositive. we prove if x<0 then x^3 +5x <= x^2 +1
if x<0 and x is a rational number, then x is negative
a negative number cubed is negative. a positive int times a negative int is also negative. thus, x^3 +5x is negative
a negative number squared is positive so x^2 is positive
with the addition to 1 the righthand side of tghe inequality is positive
making it negative number x <= positive number x
which is true
which should prove the original question?
@signal lynx Has your question been resolved?
@signal lynx Has your question been resolved?
Yes it's correct, though the wording is a little awkward
$$x<0 \implies [ x^3 + 5x < 0 \text{ and } x^2 + 1 > 0 ] \implies x^3 + 5x \le x^2 + 1$$
That's all you need really
Nel
yeah im not really good at translating my like mental logic to formal notation 😭
i dont have to prove that x^2 +5x is less than 0?
You can if you want, I just think it's obvious
Actually this isn't quite the contrapositive
$$x \le 0 \implies [ x^3 + 5x \le 0 \text{ and } x^2 + 1 > 0 ] \implies x^3 + 5x < x^2 + 1$$
Nel
This is the contraposition of " x^3 + 5x >= x^2 + 1 implies x > 0 "
ah
that makes sense thank you
would you mind helping me w this next one as well? my current logic for it is to suppose n is an even integer. this means n=2j for some j in Z. n=4k is the same as n=2(2k). k is an integer so 2k is basically any integer in Z which proves n=4k is even. similarly, n=4k+2 is equal to n=2(2k+1) where 2k+1 is also a valid int. both n values fit the definition of even so if n is even then it is also equal to n=4k or n=4k+2 for some int k
@signal lynx Has your question been resolved?
this only proves that if n=4k or n=4k+2 then n is even
how come? if n is even its equal to 2k for some arbitrary int k. n=4k and 4k+2 are also even for their respective arbitrary k’s. doesn’t than mean they’re equal?
how else would you prove it?
Maybe there is some even number not of the form 4k+2 or 4k but still even
For example 6k and 6k+2 are both even but not all even numbers are of that form
They can also be of the form 6k+4
Do you know the division theorem
ah
that makes sense shit
It says that for any two integers n and q there exists two unique integers k and r where 0<=r<|q| such that n=qk+r
It's relevant in this case because it means every integer is of one of four forms:
- 4k
- 4k+1
- 4k+2
- 4k+3
You prove that 4k+1 and 4k+3 are impossible if n is even, and then you just have to show that 4k and 4k+2 are both possible.
how might you go about proving it without the use of the division theorem?

How do I find the equation?
Start by finding the equation for velocity as a function of time
to do so, you take the antiderivative of the acceleration such that v(0) = 1
1/4t^2 + 4t + C?
yes, and substitute C so that v(0) = 1
at t=0, you want the equation to equal 1
Ohh ok
Then do the same thing again to get the position
So find the integral again?
Ohh ok ok I got it thank you
@tender tartan may you help me with one more?
sure, what is it ?
The derivative of f(x)=(e^x)(lnx)
use the product rule : the derivative of u(x)v(x) is u'(x)v(x) + u(x)v'(x)
what's the derivative of e^x, and what's the derivative of ln(x)
e^x and 1/x
then (e^x)'*ln(x) and e^x(ln(x))' are ?
Isn't it just e^x?
e^x(lnx)+e^x(1/x)?
yep
But the answer is e^x(1+xlnx)/x
ln(x) = xln(x)/x
Wait it is?
you multiply ln(x) by x/x (which is 1)
Why x/x?
you want to factor out 1/x, but you can only multiply ln(x) by one without changing the function, so you multiply by one making 1/x appear
so x/x
you want to factor out a 1/x
on the right it's easy
on the left, you have to make it appear
so you say that 1 = x/x, making the left part e^xln(x)x/x
no, you have e^x/x + e^xlnx = e^x/x + e^xlnx * 1 = e^x/x + e^xlnx * x/x = e^x/x(1 + xlnx)

is desmos broken
-1^(-1) = -1
you get x^x negative for all values of the form x= -1/k where k is odd
wait then geogebra is wrong
is it something like "it oscillates so fast between positive and negative" that it doesnt display on the -x side
well x^x is weird at negative values
yeah something like this
also, what is x^x for a negative irrational value? well it’s really not easy to tell what it should be
so maybe geogebra says “uh hello? what is this weirdness going on?” and doesn’t graph it there
if you have a negative number to a non-integer power, you get an complex number. so a graph that only shows real outputs doesn't fully capture it

wolframs plots the principal root, which is complex, whereas desmos just plots it implicitly, so anywhere where the real-valued root exists is plotted

in a vector field $ F = x^3i + y^3j + z^3k $ we are calculating flux of hemisphere with using divergence teorem and spherical coordinates we have property of $ z = 1 $ and $z = sqrt( 1 - x^2 - y^2 ) $ what is the flux going through that hemisphere ?
I used divergence teorem than find 3(x^2 + y^2 + z^2) and used triple integrals, also since it is a hemispherical shape used spherical coordinates to evaluate

i’m not sure how to find the value of x here
i tried to find the total area but i’m not sure where that brought me or what to do with what i have
this question is in a packet about quadratics so i know it’s related to that but i’m not sure how
Now you've gotten area as a function of x.
Which is a quadratic.
Do you know when a quadratic attains max/min value?
the vertex right?
Yes.
so do -b/2a?
yes.
and that’s the x value that i’m looking for?
yes.

I'm trying to integrate sin(lnx)dx, im doing the u-substitution
but the part that I get stuck on is. I set u = lnx, so du= 1/x dx. so to replace dx would I leave it as x*du ( dx= xdu) or do I just pull out the 1/x ?

write x as e^u
I just had to process that. and that made sense to me. Thank you
