#

wait, what

#

that's beautiful , ngl

midnight haven
#

You mean the equation for f(u)?

autumn fossil
sharp smelt
#

why didn't I think of that ☹️ . thanks a lot though!

autumn fossil
#

we can take e.g. u = 1, 1/2 and 1/3

#

then we can calculate f(u) for these values

#

and there is one unique parabola passing through the points (u, f(u))

midnight haven
acoustic path
autumn fossil
#

and the one parabola is u^2 + u, because this one works and since there is just 1 unique parabola, no other parabola will work

autumn fossil
midnight haven
#

Cool but how do you know that f(u) =f(x)?
Or you just say that f(u) is special case of f(x)
Therefor lim of f(u) =lim of f(x)?

autumn fossil
midnight haven
autumn fossil
#

we also know that f is a parabola

#

or its graph

#

f is quadratic functions

#

thats what i meant to say

midnight haven
#

Yeah make sense, so you just take special case

autumn fossil
#

how many points on graph do you need to UNIQUELY define a parabola?

midnight haven
#

Thanks because was confused that we don't have range for x

autumn fossil
#

You only need 3 points, f(u) = f(x) for all u = 1/n gives us infinitely many points

#

meaning that if there even is a parabola passing through all of f(u), it must be unique

midnight haven
autumn fossil
#

and since f(x) = x^2 + x works for all u = 1/n, we can just take that

#

and then trivially find the limit

I have a triangle with points A:(4,3), B:(0,0), and C:(4,-3). I solved the previous steps, but I need some help dilating this triangle by a scale factor of -4 about point A

marble sigil
halcyon pagoda
#

@marble sigil What do you mean by adjust it back to normal coordinates?

marble sigil
#

the first step is doing -4 to x and -3 to y, and in the end you do +4 to x and +3 to y to go back

halcyon pagoda
#

Ok

elder plaza
#

hi how do i determine whether this sequence converges?

elder plaza
#

a.n = arctan(ln (n))

#

idk how to do the subscript

#

i havent tried much becuase im not sure where to start

#

but i know the domain of arctan is all real numbers

#

and domain of ln is 0 -> inf

#

and ln (infinity) is infinity

#

so we just have arctan(inf)

lavish portal
#

Do you know what arctan(x) looks like

elder plaza
#

i dont

#

is that important for this problem?

lavish portal
#

Oh nvm I don’t think I understand this problem fully

#

Are you trying to find if the infinite term will reach a certain value

elder plaza
#

nw

lavish portal
#

Arctan is the inverse of the tan graph so it is reflected across y=x

#

do you know what tan(x) looks like

elder plaza
#

i do

#

its

#

a repeating cubic looking function with vertical asymptotes

lavish portal
#

ok reflect is across y=x and then you get arctan(x) but remember that functions can only have 1 value

elder plaza
#

period pi

lavish portal
#

actually do you just want to see what arctan(x) looks like then it will be obvious

#

graph it on Desmond

elder plaza
#

converges to pi/2

#

it looks

#

like

#

i see

#

makes sense

wind solstice
#

Hello, I was wondering how to find the limit of a linear recurrence with variable coefficient ?

wind solstice
#

More precisely for the following sequence:

#

$a_{n+2}=\frac{n+1}{n+2}a_{n+1}+\frac{n}{(n+2)^2}a_n$

jolly parrotBOT
wind solstice
#

with a_1 = 1 and a_2 = 0.75

marble sigil
#

in general you just have to guess a function that sort of matches the recurrence, here it's going to be something involving factorials

#

oh apparently OEIS says it's about derangements, so you can't really do this algebraically and would want a combinatorial proof

#

you sort of just have to know it. but the derangement recurrence is a(n+2)=(n+1)a(n+1)+a(n)

wind solstice
#

I'm sorry but I don't really understand how is this suppose to help me

marble sigil
#

the answer is going to look like (factorial times or divided by other factorials)*(degrangements !n)

wind solstice
#

ohh okay

#

I'm gonna see what I can do with that

#

thankss

Hi, the formula for the sector of a circle is theta times radius squared times half correct? However, in this answer sheet I don't see the 1/2 in the first part where it says pi times 12 squared over 4 and I don't know if I'm wrong or if this is a misprint.

versed remnant
#

u know its a quartar of circle so area of that is pi r^2/4

midnight haven
#

but wheres the 1/2

#

isnt there supposed to times 1/2

#

so its pi times 12^2 over 4 times by 1/2

#

right?

#

nvm i got it

I have this question

#

i did the first step

#

i know u have to do polynomial divison

#

i did some of it

#

im on the 2nd part of it

#

this is also college algebra

vast solstice
#

what is the 2nd part?

indigo prawn
#

i did like the first step in the divison were the x goes on top

#

but i nvr finished the rest

vast solstice
#

im not sure what you mean, the oblique asymptote will be the quotient without the remainer

#

thats all that is asked in the question

indigo prawn
#

can i show you my work?

vast solstice
#

sure

indigo prawn
#

alr

#

this is what i have so far for the division

#

ik its simple but idk what to do next😭

vast solstice
#

The same thing you did for the first line

#

you need to find a term to multiply by x to get -17x

indigo prawn
#

OMG

im SO STUPID

It's a

g(y) for any y give you positive Therefor look at x^2-1

#

When x=1 or - 1 we have 0

#

Horizontal line

#

When x<1/x >-1
We have negative gradient

#

Other cases are positive gradient Therefor it should be A

midnight haven

Okay I can solve both questions individually but I don't understand why 1 leads to 2

midnight haven
#

The reciprocal of 1/3 is 3/1. Therefore, $3/19= 27/1$
The reciprocal of 7/3 is 3/7. Therefore, $3/7
9=27/7$

jolly parrotBOT
#

zeinvincible

#

So both answers are correct by doing them individually, however, the second answer is apparently meant to be derived from evaluating the first answer

Hello

#

I see that you need help

midnight haven
#

yes

midnight haven
#

theyre gone..

prisma forge
#

I think it’s trying to get you to see that if you are given a numerator other than one you use the numerator at your new denominator after dividing

prisma forge
midnight haven
#

4

midnight haven
prisma forge
midnight haven
#

6, why isnt the last filled?

prisma forge
#

If the last was filled we would get to 28/3 looking at the number line

#

But 27/3 is 9

#

The colored blocks represent 7/3s, it changes color after each 7/3

#

So in 9 we have 3 and 6/7 7/3s

#

I believe you just need to rewrite 3 and 6/7 as an improper fraction

#

I believe it’s trying to get you thinking of 1 leading to 2 as 9 / 1/3 is 27/1 which is also 9 * 3/1

#

Then when you get to question 2 9 / 7/3 should be 9 * 3/7

midnight haven
#

owh i see

#

that makes sense thanks

prisma forge
#

👍👍

#

Have a great day/night

you should get this

winged lance
#

yeah

#

wait why is it 4a

midnight haven
#

because thats how parabolas are defined?

#

the most basic one

#

y^2 = 4ax

#

a is the focus

winged lance
#

ok

midnight haven
#

and solve for a

winged lance
#

i got 1/32 while the answer is 1/8 for a

midnight haven

use without 4a and you'll get 1/8

for convenience, introduce three variables for the
height, length, width
of the cuboid
and also draw in the line segments BH and BG

native acorn
#

what

#

no idea what u just said

light helm
#

do you know variables mean

#

which parts of what i said don't you understand

native acorn
light helm
#

and introduce 3 variables for the height, width, length of the prism
its not needed but it'll make things a little easier

native acorn
light helm
#

ok good

#

now <GBH can be determine from cos rule if you know all three sides of the triangle GBH
currently you know two, with b currently unknown
so the next step would be to determine that

#

now, do you know pythagoras' theorem
as well as how it applies in 3D?

native acorn
#

yes

#

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

#

i forgot 3d aspect tho

light helm
#

pretty similar
p^2 + q^2 + r^2 = d^2

#

from how you defined a,b,c here that'd give you
a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = 36^2
a^2 + c^2 = 24^2

#

which lets you determine b^2 and b

native acorn
#

ok

#

what answer

Can someone please help me

determine x

pearl prism

are you trying to find the equation?

marsh silo
# warm echo determine x

u know its gotta be something divided by x since its undefined at a point. If u subtract x in the denominator by the value of that point itll move it from 0 to the point (which here is 1)
-1 / (x - 1)
and since at x = 0 this is 1, you just add 5 to it

Guys I need help

#

In the triangle with a 30 degree angle,the altitude relative to the hypotenuse divides it into two segments measuring m and n units,respectively,where m is greater than n.We know that the ratio of m to n is greater than 1. Formulate a conjecture specifying the value of the ratio m to n in this type of triangle

#

If you could help I would really appreciate it ¡

clever pewter
#

so first off you should find all of the angles (easy part)
then find cos 30 (for bigger triangle) and cos (find it) (for smaller triangle) then you got it pretty much.

I have Proof question.

I'm currently working on Proofs by Jay Cummings (amazing book, hilarious). Exercise 1.2 is "Explain the error in the following "proof" that 2=1. Let x=y. Then,

icy pasture
#

I made a proof and while it seems right, I can't help feel like I did something wrong and still misunderstanding the idea on writing proofs.

For some context, Im on a math journey from Algebra to Linear Algebra while learning Pure Math concepts.

Im currently in Algebra 1, therefore at the start of this personal journey, so "proved" this exercise with Algebra. Would it be a good idea to share my scratch work? And to keep it short:
I defined
x=2, y=1, because it looks like 2=1 denotes x=y based on the question. - (maybe i have yet to prove this?)
x^2=xy returned 2=1 so true
x^2-y^2=xy - y^2 returned 2=1 so true
(x+y)(x-y)=y(x-y) returned 3=1 so false
x + y = y returned 3=1 so false.

To me, that proves 2=1 wrong. But is there a better more efficient way of proving this? did i do algebra poorly and were the results i got wrong? I guess thats where im hung up. perhaps "solving" the proof algebraically doesnt actually prove anything?

compact veldt
#

then x - y = 0

#

and you're dividing by 0

rough stream
#

This line is the last correct line

icy pasture
#

I think im still stuck on algebra. If I remove y from the right side and move it to the left, wouldnt the equation come out to be -y + x = 0. Oh. That is also 0. OH I GET IT NOW.

rough stream
#

Note it reads "0 = 0"

deft pivot
#

why DF:FA:BH = 5:6:3?

icy pasture
#

I got my wires crossed a bit and tried to solve this in a weird way when it was much more simple than I thought. I didn't have to plug anything in.

Thank you!

Calculate the surface area of each individual shape

#

then sum

magic ermine

Can you show/tell me how?

#

Please?

ancient locust
#

yeah

magic ermine
#

Thanks.

ancient locust
#

So there are 3 rectangles and to triangles

#

2 same rectangles and 1 at the base

magic ermine
ancient locust
#

hahahahahaah

#

no

magic ermine
#

I still don’t understand.

#

The answer that im getting it not the same with that.

#

mb g

magic ermine
#

Can sometime help me now?

frozen summit
magic ermine
#

^^^ @frozen summit

fluid root
#

find the total surface area

magic ermine
#

How?

#

Just show me the work and the answer. ❤️

fluid root
#

wow, you want a kiss on the cheek with that too

magic ermine
#

Yes please.

#

Once you show me, I’ll study how to do it again.

fluid root
#

what is the 21 cm connected to

magic ermine
#

9

fluid root
#

the picture is kinda unclear

#

is that a height or what

magic ermine
#

Im not sure man

frozen summit
#

9 is the measure in cm of the other side I think
So it wouldn't be height

ancient locust
#

2*(21.5)^2 + 2(21) + 21.5*(9)

frozen summit
#

The backside

#

Why does it have a exponent there?

#

I think it would be
2 x (21.5• 21 ) + 2 x ( 21.5 • 9)

frozen summit
magic ermine
#

But like that answer is 614.7 cm^2

ancient locust
#

i feel the 21 is the area of the triangle

#

hence its highlighted

frozen summit
#

Oh that 614 is already the answer?

magic ermine
ancient locust
frozen summit
magic ermine
fluid root
#

isthe 21 a height?

#

thats all I am asking

frozen summit
#

OK so as I understood, the red 614.7 is the answer ?

magic ermine
fluid root
#

can you like

#

screenshot it better

frozen summit
#

Yeah

#

It would help ALOT

magic ermine
#

I could show you a quick example?

fluid root
#

we dont need a quick example

#

we need to see the figure better to understand the 21 is about

frozen summit
#

This alone doesn't make that much of sense

magic ermine
#

That’s pretty much it then.

magic ermine
frozen summit
#

Let's suppose is the height

magic ermine
#

Here are a quick example.

frozen summit
#

Ok

magic ermine
#

Anything yet?

frozen summit
#

I'm only getting similar results

#

But not the same

#

One thing I tried :
2(½ • 21.5 • 9 ) + 2(½ • 21.5 • 21 )
But it resulted 645 cm²
Not the same

magic ermine
frozen summit
#

I'm not saying with 100% sure, but based on our results it is to be wrong

magic ermine
#

Alright.

#

It’s alright.

frozen summit
#

Try asking your teacher

magic ermine
#

Okay.

unkempt yacht
#

A class has 5 female students and 6 male students. Line them up, calculate the probability for there are no female students adjacent to each other

unkempt yacht
#

i figure the only configuration for this to happen is MFMFMFMFMFM

#

so what i did was

cinder flower
#

how is that the only configuration

unkempt yacht
#

$\frac{A_6^6\times A_5^5}{A_{11}^{11}}$

cinder flower
#

what about MFMFMFMFMMF

#

and a bunch of others

jolly parrotBOT
unkempt yacht
cinder flower
#

i’m always right

unkempt yacht
#

im not sure how to calculate exactly how many of possible configurations?

cinder flower
#

you need to have a male between each female but if you just put one that still leaves 2 males “free”

#

and you can insert them anywhere

unkempt yacht
cinder flower
#

sure

unkempt yacht
#

there are 10 available slots for a M

#

once that M joins, there will be 11 available slots for another M

#

so, 10*11?

cinder flower
#

well there’s one thing to be careful of

#

what are you looking at as the “slots”?

unkempt yacht
#

the space between people that i can insert another male in

#

for example, i can insert a M between the first F and first M, that a slot

cinder flower
#

ok

#

do you see that putting M in some of those slots don’t give distinct layouts?

unkempt yacht
#

right, each config gets repeated once

#

so i have to divide by 2?

cinder flower
#

just think of the slots as between the Fs

#

and at the beginning and end

#

so 6 of them

unkempt yacht
#

oh

cinder flower
#

and 6^2 ways to place down Ms

unkempt yacht
#

so a total of 36 possible configs to satisfy the initial condition?

cinder flower
#

36 permutations of FFFFFMMMMMM fit the problem specifications yes

unkempt yacht
#

right, so my final answer would be

#

$36\times\frac{6!5!}{11!}$

#

which gets me 6/77?

#

seems wrong, it isnt listed in one of the options

cinder flower
#

never seen this A notation

unkempt yacht
#

yeah in my place its used as A, combination counts that order matters

cinder flower
#

lol you could just say 11! instead of P_11^11

unkempt yacht
#

oh yeh i forgot

jolly parrotBOT
unkempt yacht
cinder flower
unkempt yacht
#

using 55 instead of 36 isnt correct either

unkempt yacht
#

i eliminated the first and last options; the last implies the configurations amount is non-integer, while the first is wayyyyy too high realistically

final horizon
#

can i give some of my ideas?

#

to solve this question

unkempt yacht
#

youre welcome to do so if it helps

unkempt yacht
#

yes

final horizon
#

For these types of question i generally like to split the condtions and then solve

#

First total number of ways to arrange all of them is 11! agree?

unkempt yacht
#

yeah, go on

final horizon
#

No female should be adjacent to each other

#

so we create gaps which can be filled in

unkempt yacht
#

right

final horizon
#

so we have 7 gaps

#

so 7C5 ways of arranging the female

#

and then for male

#

its simple

#

6 male 6 factorial ways

unkempt yacht
#

7? i only see 6 on the diagram

final horizon
#

missed one male

#

there are 6 males mb

unkempt yacht
#

but its still possible that there is 2 adjacent males

#

FMFMFMFMFMMF is a valid combination

final horizon
#

alright gotchu your doubt

#

now lets say out of 7 spots

#

i fill 5 spots

#

like this

#

sorry for bad handwriting

#

now see there is two gaps between male?

#

those are empty

#

so that means they will sit together

#

so the combination here is FMFMFMFMMMF

#

Since we are choosing 5 spots out of 7

unkempt yacht
#

oh wait youre right

#

yeah that works

final horizon
#

The rest spots can be filled by men

#

ok onto next part

#

we got the seats ready

#

now the male does not have any restriction

#

so 6! ways

#

And obviously since we placed the FEMALE seats 2 F wont sit together

unkempt yacht
#

we already got the number of possible configs, then we can just multiply it to 6!5!/11! ya?

final horizon
#

something like this

unkempt yacht
#

same result can also be yielded by 7C5 * 5!

final horizon
#

Truee

#

i never use P

unkempt yacht
#

so that gives me 1/22

final horizon
#

Its redudant

#

i did not calculate so i dont the answer😁

unkempt yacht
#

right i get it now, thanks @final horizon @cinder flower

final horizon
#

btw

final horizon
#

just one more tip

unkempt yacht
#

hi

final horizon
#

This method is called gap

#

gap method

#

whenever you see adjacent word

#

in the question

#

you pop this in

#

always works👍

unkempt yacht
#

neat, never heard of this

#

thanks!

final horizon

Glad i could help!

I've been struggling with this question and I can't understand the solution. How many integers $n$ are there in ${ 1,\ 2,\ 3, \ldots , \ 2022} $ such that $ \left \lfloor{\sqrt[3]{n}}\right \rfloor $ is a factor of $n$?

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

smoky musk
#

Just find how many numbers in ${n^3, n^3+1, ... (n+1)^3-1}$ that is divisible by $n$

jolly parrotBOT
pearl pondBOT
#

@arctic cave Has your question been resolved?

smoky musk
# arctic cave huh

Do you know how many numbers in ${1, 2, ... n}$ that is divisible by $k$?

jolly parrotBOT
arctic cave
#

what k

#

could you elaborate

smoky musk
#

What do you know about divisibility?

#

(Also, please do ping me, I might be lost in way and forget to check this thread.)

arctic cave
#

alright

arctic cave
#

btw its a math olympiad question

smoky musk
#

I know.

arctic cave
#

so no calculators or anything

smoky musk
#

If you're prepared for olympiad, you should've been taught about divisibility

smoky musk
#

And no, there is a simpler answer than "calculate one-by-one"

arctic cave
#

for k an integer right?

smoky musk
#

Natural number

arctic cave
#

$ \left \lfloor{\frac{n}{k}}\right \rfloor $

#

bruh

smoky musk
#

Lemme test
$$\left \lfloor{\frac{n}{k}}\right \rfloor$$

arctic cave
#

$\lfloor{\frac{n}{k}}\rfloor$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

arctic cave
#

wtv

#

yep

#

forgot to size

smoky musk
#

TeXit was just drunk

#

im a bit new to latex

arctic cave
#

jkjk

smoky musk
#

But that's right.

arctic cave
#

yep

#

ofc

smoky musk
arctic cave
#

ill have latex nightmares after this

#

sigh

#

$3n + 3$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

arctic cave
#

i simplified it

#

idk whether its irght tho

smoky musk
#

I think you missed a term.

arctic cave
#

@smoky musk

smoky musk
#

Can I show your calculation?

arctic cave
#

$\frac{\left( (n + 1)^3 - 1 \right)}{n}= n^2 + 3n + 3$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

smoky musk
#

That's correct

#

Now the lower bound?

arctic cave
#

$\frac{n^3}{n} = n^2$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

arctic cave
#

wait shit

#

i forgot

#

n^3 itself

#

shit

#

$3n + 4$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

smoky musk
#

Now that's correct.

#

Now it should be easy to solve the rest.

arctic cave
#

wait

#

gimme a bit

#

i dont get the correlation

smoky musk
#

Correlation?

arctic cave
#

like

#

how that relates to the original qn

smoky musk
#

So, what is the possibe values of x such that
$n = \lfloor \sqrt[3]{x}\rfloor$
for a specific n?

jolly parrotBOT
arctic cave
#

uh

#

$n^3 \leq x \leq (n+1)^3 - 1$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

smoky musk
#

That's correct.

#

Try to connect between two, now.

arctic cave
#

i sort of get the connection but t doesnt work out somehow

#

sorry about that

#

could u guide a bit more

smoky musk
#

Divide the range to several categories:
${{1,..., 7},{8,...,26}, ..., {1331, ..., 1727}, {1728, ..., 2022}}$
And calculate the valid integer for each case.

jolly parrotBOT
arctic cave
#

ohhhhhh

#

is it like
3n +4 for 1 through 12

smoky musk
#

Be careful. 2022 is not 13^3-1

arctic cave
#

oh yeah

#

so for 1 through 11 ill do that

#

then for 12 i have to calculate

#

😦

#

right?

smoky musk
#

Why frown face?

#

It's just as easy.

arctic cave
#

its tedious

#

but fine

#

$3(1+2+3+\ldots +11) + 4 = 198 + 4 = 202$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

arctic cave
#

then

#

floor of 2022/12 = 168
floor of 1728/12 = 144
168-144+1 = 25

#

$202+25 = 227$

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

smoky musk
arctic cave
#

yep

#

i realised

#

$267$ then

jolly parrotBOT
#

everything_addict

arctic cave
#

yay

#

its right

#

thanks

A bit confused here.
I wrote

bi) 4^4=256 bii)(5P3)(2P1)=120

onyx mica
#

But the answer says

trail shoal
#

Doesnt have to be 4 digit

#

@onyx mica

onyx mica
#

That's why

#

But for ai)

#

Won't that be 4!(3!)(2!)(1!)=288

trail shoal
#

Not at all

#

Is there only one 1 digit number?

onyx mica
#

Or do I use permutation?

onyx mica
#

Yeah permutations

trail shoal
#

4+4•3+4•3•2+4•3•2•1

onyx mica
#

4P4+4P3+4P2+4P1

#

But for bi

#

nvm got it

#

Can I for the ii sections say because there're 2 even cards and 2 odd cards, so there're just 1/2 of it being even?

#

Or do I have to expand that?

got them

torpid mica
#

hello. Is this channel available

pearl pondBOT
sharp smelt
#

yes

torpid mica
#

oh. oki

#

can someone help me with this

#

according to the available choices, approximately 0.029 ft per hour is correct. but I don't understand how it got up to that point

midnight haven
#

looks like its related to applications of derivatives

#

@torpid mica what was your final equations?

#

for dh/dt?

torpid mica
midnight haven
torpid mica
midnight haven
#

now radius will change as per height am i right?

midnight haven
#

do u know similarity between trinagle?

#

triangles*

torpid mica
midnight haven
#

for eg

#

abc

#

and prq

#

pqr*

#

2 triangle

#

now if ab/bc = pq/qr

#

they are said to similar

#

and lets say they share 1 common angle

#

or should i say

#

angle abc = angle pqr

#

this might seem a bit complicated at first

#

but all gotta do is visualize the cone

#

look

#

can u see the inner and outer trinagle

#

both fo them are similar

#

of the condition above is statisfied

#

now

torpid mica
midnight haven
#

tell me do u see the 2 traingles?

#

triangles which are similar

torpid mica
midnight haven
#

so now

#

do u understand this?

torpid mica
midnight haven
#

the tank is 10ft wide

#

right?

#

now what that means is the diameter of the tan

#

tank

#

the conical top

#

is 10m

#

so the radius will be 5m

torpid mica
#

ohhh.

midnight haven
#

so u understand this much

#

?

torpid mica
midnight haven
#

now due to similarity between the 2 traingles
x/5 = 10/15

#

right?

#

and x is raidus so lets denotes by

#

r

#

and

#

that 10

#

is the height

#

at that exact moment

#

but we want to generalize it

#

so we'll just take h

#

so

#

r = h/3

#

now u know

#

that at any random time

#

when h is lets say 6ft

#

the r will be 2ft

#

now u already know the formula

#

v = 1/3 pi r^2 h

#

put value of r as h/3

#

now differentate both wrt t

#

and youll have value of dh/dt

ripe needle
#

If I integrate 1/2x can I integrate 1/x and multiply the answer by 1/2?

ripe needle
#

like factor out one half

#

but it's not really working

#

bc one way you get .5lnx

#

the other 0.5ln(2x)

glad falcon
#

Well you can split 0.5ln(2x) into 0.5(ln(2) + ln(x)) so the 0.5ln(2) becomes part of the constant of integration thus you get left with 0.5ln(x) +c as before

#

But yes it just makes a bit more sense to take the 1/2 out first haha

midnight haven
#

a soccer tournament is played until A or B wins 4 rounds

midnight haven
#

what is the probability A wins in the 6th round

#

i got this:

#

probability of the score being 3-2 in 5 rounds:

#

5 C 3 * 1/2 ^ 5

#

probability A wins in the 6th is 1/2

#

so its 5 C 3 * 1/2 ^ 6

void grail
#

Is an equation an equivalence relation?

pearl pondBOT
void grail
#

For example, d/dx c = 0 is an equivalence relation or an equation?

tropic saddle
#

an equivalence relation can sometimes be defined by an equation if thats what you mean

#

but this is just an equation

void grail
#

As I understand it now, there are relationships, or arrows of categories, and there are equivalence relations, and there are equations.

tropic saddle
#

oh you want to do this from the level of category theory?

#

then I'd rather not answer

void grail
#

Okay. I have very basic understanding of this, but it seems very interesting.

#

Thanks anyway!

#

however apperantly this isnt the answer. and I dont quite understand why this isnt the approach. I have read the answer is the following:

jolly parrotBOT

past hound
#

which is confusing because isnt this not possible because:

#

$$
\begin{align}
3s_{11} + 0s_{12} + 0s_{13} &= b_{11} \
3s_{21} + 4s_{22} + 0s_{23} &= b_{21} \
3s_{31} + 4s_{32} + 3s_{33} &= b_{31} \ \
\end{align}

\begin{align}
3s_{11} &= b_{11}
3s_{21} + 4s_{22} &= b_{21}
3s_{31} + 4s_{32} + 3s_{33} &= b_{31}

onyx verge
#

I don't really understand what they want me to do here, or how to find their answer.
The second image is part of the example that they gave me to understand how to do it

pearl pondBOT
#

@onyx verge Has your question been resolved?

pearl pondBOT
#

@onyx verge Has your question been resolved?

onyx verge
spring oar
#

no worries.

#

what is 7pi/2 approximately equal to?

onyx verge
onyx verge
spring oar
#

so in the example, 12 would be to the right of that, yeah?

onyx verge
#

yes

spring oar
#

and in your problem, you're trying to find the approximate answer for when theta = 6, yeah?

spring oar
#

so what is the closest value on the number line to 6?

onyx verge
spring oar
#

each tick is pi/4

#

it looks like you took a pic of 3pi/2?

onyx verge
spring oar
#

when you multiply 3*pi and then divide by 2, what do you get?

onyx verge
#

~4.71

spring oar
#

ok, so that's less than 6, yeah?

onyx verge
#

yes

spring oar
#

is there another number closer to 6 on the number line?

onyx verge
#

2*pi gets ~6.28

spring oar
#

which is closer. so that means that your value must be a little to the left of 2pi, ya?

onyx verge
#

correct. But where do i go from here?

spring oar
#

so what is the approximate value of the function just to the left of 2pi?

#

i'm not sure how exact the answer needs to be

onyx verge
spring oar
#

note that the value has to be negative, because just to the left of 2pi, the function is negative

#

oh, i see what you mean

#

yeah

onyx verge
#

so something between 3Pi/2 and 2Pi.
i dunno, so i just draw lines and hope one sticks?

spring oar
#

i don't see the rest of the instructions, so that seems about right

I'm not sure how they went from the first expression to the second

#

with the summation and the dx

#

Isn't f^(n)(0) always zero

merry carbon
#

Using $e^y = \sum_{k = 0}^\infty \frac{y^k}{k!}$ and setting $y = -x^2$, then simplifying
