well if we get that the sum is neither 0 nor 1 mod 4, it's done
otherwise yeah it's an issue
it's clearly not 0
you can use mod 4 to disprove odds and mos 3 to disprove evens
the only different case is n=1 becuase 2^n !≡ 0 mod 4
no the other way around
$2^n+7^nmod(4)$
Why am. I here
yes
which is $(2^n)mod(4)+ 7^n(mod4)$
Why am. I here
👍
yes
hmm, and $(2^n)mod4 =0$ for all n>1
Why am. I here
yup
well this doesn't seem like it'll work
now to find $7^nmod(4)$
Why am. I here
Why am. I here
yes
$7^3mod(4)=3$
Why am. I here
so I guess I prove 7^nmod(4) is never 0
thats not enough
lets go over quadratic residues real quick
there are certain values which cannot be squares modulo a certain modulus
e.g. 2(mod4) is never square
another example is 3(mod4)
:O
if n is odd, what is 7^n(mod4)
3?
yup
you can tell which are quadratic nonresidues by casework
in the modulo 3 world, what are the quadratic residues?
modulo 3 is basically $nmod(3)$, right?
Why am. I here
when n is odd 1, when n is even 2
when n is 3a, it's 0
for quadratic residues, you only need to check 0^2, 1^2, and 2^2 mod 3
wait, what?
quadratic as in squares
yeah, I get that
what are the possible squares mod 3?
4 mod 3 is also?
1mod(3)?
yes
notice how it is never 2 mod 3
this is a quadratic __non__residue
in other words, cant be a square number
hmm, ok a number is a perfect square if its quadratic residue is 0?
no
a number can be a perfect square if it is congruent to a square number modulo some number n
a number cannot be a perfect square (at all) if it is not congruent to a square number modulo some number n
huh,ok
why is this?
thats kinda how congruence works idk what to say
huh,ok
so I now have to prove that $7^n+2^n$ isn't congruent to what?
Why am. I here
depends on the modulus, but i would suggest trying modulo 4 first
$(7^n+2^n)mod(4)$?
Why am. I here
yes
ok, so there are two cases, for n>1
when n is 2a, it's 2
when n is (2b+1) but not 3c it's 1
?
yeah
i think youre mixing modulos and expressions and moduli
so your 2 cases are
n is odd
n is even
what happens to the expression mod 4 in each case?
when n is odd
what is 2^n + 7^n (mod 4)?
if $n \neq 1$ then 3
Why am. I here
what is 9 mod 4
yes
I don't think so
no
you can check 0^2, 1^2, 2^2, 3^2
its either 0 or 1
from 4^2 on it just repeats
oh,ok
so can n be odd if we want 2^n+7^n to be a square number?
no, idts
no, because it is not a quadratic residue mod 4
ah, I see, thanks
what about even n?
I use the same logic, I think
what does the expression become?
(7^n+2^n)mod(4)
yes
since 1 is a quadratic residue, the test is inconclusive
lets try a different modulus
(modulus was 4 last time because it was the n in mod n)
what about 3
lets do odd n and even n again
what is 2^n+7^n mod 3 for even n?
2^nmod(3) for even n is 1
good
7 mod 3 can be simplified
what, how?
what is the remainder when 7 is divided by 3
1
2?
yes
so that proves that the only sol is 1?
what are the quadratic residues mod 3?
hmm, so I have to find (2^n+7^n) mod3?
what
that's what this means, right?
I'm really confused
quadratic residues is a fancy way of saying possible square numbers
so I square 2 here, right?
where did the two come from
here
no
2^n + 7^n = 2 (mod 3)
now we look at all possible square numbers mod 3 and check if they are equal to 2
ok, yea
yea?
what does it prove
I'm going off this
ok
so based on this, no even n satifies the given statement either, right?
because?
a number cannot be a perfect square (at all) if it is not congruent to a square number modulo some number n
so for even n(s) this clearly isn't true
youre so close to finishing it off
even n with what modulus
modulo 3?
modulo 4, right?
why did you chose 3 and 4 though?
why*
3 and 4 are usually useful with quadratic residues
also theyre small numbers so theyre easy to work with
In terms of modulos?
yes
2^n+7^n when n=1 is congruent to what mod 4?
the reminder is 1
why isnt it 3 like the rest of the odd ns?
not sure
think about the two terms, which one might act different?
its more like 4 does not divide 2
yeah thats why 1 is an exception
youre welcome!
this mightve been a lot to take in
sure

the answer should be 400 but idk how to solve it
I would recommend making a table, then filling it in with what you know
here, N stands for national, P stands for private, and ~ means not
try filling in this table with what you know
@rigid trench Has your question been resolved?
btw this question actually has multiple solutions, 400 is just the smallest

for this problem would i do -4 = a (-4+1)^2 (x-2)^3 (x-4)?
you can do [
-4 = a(0+1)^2(0-2)^3(0-4)
]
rather
ohh okay i see thank you i thought i would also plug in the y intercept to the x for some reason

How to do range reduction on 2^x in 0 <= x < 1?
I'd like to implement this in a program, and taylor series works very well on nearzero.
I came up with a normal range reduction with lookup table using some top bits, (because 2^x * 2^y == 2^(x+y), I can lookup the result of bigger x and calculate taylor series of smaller y then multiply together.) but I'm wondering if there are other ways.

im not sure how to find the general solution here
why cant you directly integrate it from here?
(y/y+1) y' = (1-1/y+1)y'
integrating this gives : y - ln(y+1) = x^2 + C
well i dont know how
I did it above. Any qs about that?
where did we get 1-1
y = (y+1 -1)
wat
just add and subtract 1 from y
y = y+1 - 1 = (y+1) - 1. Now dividing by (y+1) we get 1 - 1/(y+1)
yeah i dont follow, its hard reading text like this and trying to put it into an image
i got lost at the 4th line
Idk how to use latex on discord sorry.
where does the 1- blah blah come from
So look at the numerator. It's y right?
Whereas the denom. only differs by the numerator by 1. So just add and subtract the 1 in the numerator
So y = y+1 -1
Agree?
no
i think thats where i got lost
well how do we go from this to what you had
y/(y+1) = (z-1)/z
agreed
but this part ??
1 - 1/z
(a+b)/c = a/c + b/c right?
Ok so we're at (1-1/(y+1))y' = 2x dx right?
agreed
swimmingland
$$y - \log(y+1) = x^2 + C$$
swimmingland
there are 2 dy's?
yes
you're just splitting the dy over the two terms in (1-1/y+1)
yup good job haha

a+b (they are whole numbers) can be divided by 7
prothe that
a^7+b^7 can be divided by 49
i proved that it can be divided by 7
use fermat's little theorem
a+b = 0 (mod 7)
a = -b (mod 7)
a^7 = -b^7 (mod 7)
a^7 + b^7=0 (mod 7)
huh
ooo
so
a^7 = a(mod 7)
and
b^7 = b(mod 7)
a^7 +b^7 = a+b (mod7) = 0 (mod 7)
but we need it to be divided by 49

New to scatter plots. Can someone help me interpret those scatter plots? Seems like there is no relationships?
X axis is electrical power
Y axis is gas consentration
Color are different temperatures
would probably be of value to isolate the temperatures
there does seem to be a rather strong concentration on the 50ppm line
certainly for pink and gold
So like no colors or like make them into ranges like 28-30 degrees
yeah, split it into a number of graphs
Okay, ty.
Yes, at 50 ppm there is most data points together but its quite linear
Idk can i like make some correlation or is it just coincidence. Between 6-8k power H2 in most rapidly generated?
Okay i will look more into it and ask again if i have further questions
Thank you

and im honestly not too sure what to do with this lol
this isnt really much easier to integrate
what was the original integrand
$\int^4_0{\sqrt{1+(\frac{x}2)^2}{\mathrm{d}x$

Compile Error! Click the

(You may edit your message to recompile.)
and i let $u=1+(\frac{x}2)^2$
talk_less
do you by any chance know hyperbolic functions
no
would do this integral using trigonometric substitution tbh
oh u don't know
would definitely be easier with a hyperbolic sub like x/2=sinh(u) or something
its a bit messy otherwise
im not sure on what exactly to do though
u=x/2, then use the substitution u=tan(v) and simplify with trig identities
using hyperbolic functions would be easier if uve learned them
trig sub works similarly to usub you write du in terms of v
what is v
oh i see

hello help me pls 🥲
the pole is 50 feet but idk how to get the distance from the middle line to the top/bottom of the pole
if that makes sense?
this is what I have so far
wait hold on
there
tell me whats the distance from the pole's middle point to its top?
oh hey u also like vocaloid
cool

but anyway
for easier reference, im going to label A as the person's POV, B is the pole top, C is the pole bottom and D is the middle point
can you tell me what is triangle ABD?
no, im asking what kind of triangle is it
ohhh
right triangle
i think that's the english name
😭 idk proper terminology i take math in spanish
yes
awesome
so based on that, how do you calculate BD?
3.078
ohh
no
oh
multiplied by what
no lmao
😭
recall how do you calculate tan of an angle
right
yeah ignore this i thought i got it but no
is it tan(72)(18)?
im so lost can u tell
💀
just do it
x/whatever the blue line measures
so tan72= x/BD therefore BD=...?
tan(72)(BD)
tan(72)(x)?
FungusDesu
so BD=...?
x/tan(72)?
thats right
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
for now, we do not care what x be
by the same process, can you find CD?
x/tan(76)
2x/tan(76)tan(72)?
wrong
2x/tan(76)+tan(72)?
put that aside, do you know what does BD+CD represent?
yes
oh awesome
its the height of the pole
so now
$BD=\frac{x}{\tan72}\newline CD=\frac{x}{\tan76}$
FungusDesu
x/tan(72) + x/tan(76) = 50
once you found x, substitute it to this system of equations
you shall get the measurements of blue and green segments of the pole
well NOW i would recommend writing tan as decimal instead
yeah i did that just now
what i did b4 was
just
move both tangents multiplying
which
clearly was wrong
hey r u sure it isnt 308.598 🧍♂️ i got that answer again
show your work
x/tan(72) + x/tan(76) = 50
x/3.077 + x/4.011 = 50
4.011x/12.3439 + 3.077x/12.3439 = 50
7.088x/12.3439 = 50
7.088x = 50(12.3439)
7.088x = 617.1957
x = 617.1957/7.088
x = 87.0761
is that right
now youre correct
YAY
I'd forgotten to add the numbers multiplying the Xs
i just did 2x instead of 7.088x
💀
yay it was correct!!
thank u sm for ur help
i have a test on this . tomorrow 💀

is there an algorithm I can follow when simplifying boolean expressions like this:

I'm stuck and I don't know how I can proceed to simplify this
k-maps maybe?
nope we're not there yet
i see
@delicate dock Has your question been resolved?
yeah i also dont know how to simplify this only using boolean algebra, unless you do some ingenious stuff with it
easiest way is to just use a kmap
but even after using a kmap it just reduces it down to 3 terms
and 2 of the terms are same as the original

hii the answer says its 4r^3/3s^2 but i keep getting it wrong
so 12/9 is 4/3 yes? now collect the powers of r and s
r^4/4 = r^3
s^6/s^{-8} = s^{6+8} = s^14
so it should be 4/3 r^3 s^14
umm
if it's saying 1/s^2
i got s^14 but it the book says otherwise 😭
then the denominator they've written is incorrect and it should be 9rs^8 instead of 9rs^{-8}
if the q is correct then yes
if the q has a typo and the s^-8 is supposed to be s^8 then their answer would've been correct
ahh okayy
also just realised its you again 😭 hii
thanks againnn

How would I go about showing that everything in $Z_{47}^*$ has a multiplicative inverse?
WhoTao
So $Z_{47}^* = {1,2, \dots, 46}$.
WhoTao
Since 47 is a prime number, then there is a result which says an integer $a$ has inverse modulo $n$ iff gcd(a,n) = 1
WhoTao
47 is prime. so gcd is going to be 1. But how can I show this result without using the thm
find an inverse for each number.

Need help with exercise 2
you mean ex2 part 2?
Yesyes
its discontinous
because the remaining values are all in the 220's range
whereas you have a sudden break
in the 3rd hour
because of value 0
i suggest plotting the 5 points
sorry not sure, i'm just saying plot the 5 points, you'll see that the 3rd hour is a break
and hence a discont.
kinda silly to talk about continuity when all that's given is 5 discrete data points and you know nothing about the behavior of the function in between anyway
yeah guess so
Sorry my internet sucks :(((
nw
eh i mean sure but like you should think of 220,221 and 223 as being very far from 0
Yeah
so i guess that's it?

Solve the function, could you give me some examples?
@trim seal Has your question been resolved?
In that case, I could better explain the idea
how do i explain the math behind an intercept
if i want 2 poraobals to interscet at (2,3) how can i do that. what do i put into my calculator?
What is poraobal?
parabola
It depends on in which spot do you want the two functions intersect at
If you want them to intersect at the vertex, just set both of them has the same vertex and manipulate the rest value to get what you’d like it to be
But if you want them to intersect at the vertex of parabola A and the none vertex on parabola B, you have no choice but to alter the value consecutively to get what you want
Is it helpful?

I’ll be on other channels

Is this correct?
You can verify yourself by checking that f(f^-1(x)) = x (and the other way around too to double check)
@dusky ferry Has your question been resolved?
Quick question, is there such thing as a function f that satisfies f(f^-1(x))=x and f^-1(f(x)) != x or the other way around? I feel like one implies the other
Think about squaring and square rooting
Ah, right. Thanks :)

why is that set at all related to gcd(a,b) being a divisor of c or not
Closed due to timeout

.reopen
✅
Could you clarify what you're asking please? Right now it doesn't feel like you're trying to help with your comment
you started with gcd(a,b) not being a divisor of c
then you wrote down a set which apparently now doesnt contain c
and then you are suddenly done
why
what do these steps have to do with each other
The set S that I wrote was given during lecture as a property of the gcd, so that's where that came from
Since the gcd(a,b) divides all linear combinations of a and b, if the set containing all those linear combinations doesn't contain c, then ax+by=c cannot have a solution.
so you already know that gcd(a,b) divides all linear combinations
Ye
Oh ur right, but what about the iff?
Would that still cover it with just the linear combination property?
write down exactly what you know about the set S
gcd(a,b) | ax+by is the easy direction because gcd(a,b) divides a and it divides b
Aight, so I wouldn't need the set as long as I specify that gcd(a,b)|ax+by?
Since if ax+by=c and we know that property, then there's no way that there'd be a solution if the gcd doesn't divide c.
well now we have proved "there is a solution" => "gcd divides c"
but you still need the other one
thats harder
That was given, that's why I did a proof by contradiction
.
S is the set of all linear combinations of a and b such that x,y is in the set of integers. The smallest positive integer in the set is the gcd.
At least that's what my prof told us
Mhm
for example c=gcd(a,b)*k
Ye following
and you know that there is a solution ax+by=gcd(a,b)
Yes
Oh wait
Lemme see if I can finish
So the solution c would then be (ax+by)*k, right?
I.e:
k(ax+by)=c
For the x and y that give the gcd(a,b)
Not necessarily for any x and y, just the specific gcd ones
and now you can rename kx and ky as for example x' and y'
and then ax'+by'=c
so the equation has a solution
So I wouldn't just do a proof by contradiction, it'd be a proof by cases right? One for disproving when gcd doesn't divide c and one for when it does?
you do both directions by a direct proof
Hm, if I had to do just one proof instead of two direct proofs, would a proof by cases work? My prof is very picky about us being as concise as possible.
how is doing two cases better than two direct proofs
this is pretty much as concise as possible
Idk, the guy grades more on how concise the work is than correctness, which feels odd to me for a formal proof. He took points off one time because I put too many words
well proofs can be too long
but this one isnt
if you wrote down what we discussed it would fit into like 4 lines
Meaning like, I explained "dividing by ___" instead of just doing it
I think I can see what you mean tho
So like:
gcd(a,b)|c:
ax+by = gcd
=> c = k(gcd)=k(ax+by)
=> c= a(kx) +b(ky)
QED
gcd [doesnt divide] c:
gcd=ax+by
Thus, ax+by=c cannot have a solution.
QED
Sumn like that?
Obv cleaned up just a bit
you dont need to phrase the second part as a contradiction
just directly write gcd(a,b) | ax+by = c
So like just that one line?
well you can also write "because gcd(a,b) | a and gcd(a,b) | b"
I hope that you have such basic results as x|y and x|z implying x|y+z
otherwise you would also need to prove that
Oh yeah, that's one of the lemmas we've covered
That's on the exam, but it's more of a "prove you know why" than a "I expect you to prove this every time"
How would that be more concise tho?
Also I have an appt soon, could we continue a bit more in DM later so I can open the channel for sumn else?
well you introduce an unnecessary assumption that gcd does not divide c
Totally fine if not tho
then you show that gcd does divide c
and then you conclude a contradiction
just cut out the outer parts
It's if and only if, so disproving is necessary
no
thats not how iff works
your proof currently is:
need to show gcd(a,b) | c
assume gcd(a,b) does not divide c
show that gcd(a,b) | ax+by = c, so gcd(a,b) | c
conclude contradiction to assumption, therefore gcd(a,b) does divide c
the second and fourth line are completely pointless
Really gotta go now, up to you

Given a boolean function that's a product of sums, how do I implement it using NOR gates?
For example, does the following circuit represent this function?
change last 1 to 0
f = ( k' + l ) ( k + m + n' ) ( o )
assume gate can take as many inputs as needed and inputs are available in true and complement forms
are you given a product of sums function and u r asked to implement it with NORs is this what you are trying to find just to be clear
Yep, the function looks almost like the one I've provided
And I'm asked to implement it using NOR gates only
well i guess just like use the fact that
xy = (x'+y')'
for each product
so with the function f you provided, ill shorten the triple product to be xyz. You can just use
xyz = (x'+y'+z')'
by negating the individual inputs, so for example , (k' +l)' = kl' now you need to apply the same process for kl' again
so the way im doing it is correct?
because im getting the same result

Need help with this review
Ping me if you can help me
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
Ever heard of sine law? sin(ß)/b=sin(y)/c...
Yea I think so
I’ve heard of it idk what it means
It means that in every triangle the quotient of the sin of an angle and the length of the opposite side is the same for every pair of angle and side
So how would I apply that to the problem
Well, you are given an angle and an opposite side. You are given another of the sides as well and you want to finde the opposite angle. Look at the lil equation i gave you. out of 4 variables, only one is unknown. Sub them in, and then just solve for sin(y). Apply arcsin and you got your sol.
So the measurement for angle c would be 45 if I’m rounding to the nearest whole degree?
Mhhm, im getting 37°. Its: sin(55)/55=sin(y)/40
-> sin(y)=40/55*sin(55°) -> y≈37° (36.56..)
Ohhh that makes sense thank you
@rigid gale So how would I solve for triangle abc would it be the same equation
Yeah, just multiple applications
So how would that look like
@rigid gale
I’m not sure how to do multiple applications
You can solve for side c immediatly with sine law. For A, just use that A+B+C=180. Then use it again to solve for a.
Oh okay
So would the sides of ABC A=13 B=17 and C=18 @rigid gale

Pls help
Okay let's define what cotangent is first yeah?
in terms of our trigonometric functions, what is cotangent (using sine and cosine)
its a ratio
$\tan(x)=\dfrac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}$
Oreo
Yes we can
no
What is the y intercept of y = x
i dont
okay
I’ve been thinking it might be 0
please open another help ticket
But my teacher says 1
but yes it 0
I don’t get it
Why
..
Oop
sorry, we can get back
Sorry
Yes
so cotangent is also
14*
the reciprocal of tangent
Oh
you're good
so its 0?
