storm thicket
#

We can factor a negative from e^[-ix]-e^[ix] to make the e^[-ix] negative now

frank goblet
#

lol

#

i had an idea, then it went back to the beginning just with a sign error haha

storm thicket
#

I have a feeling we'll end with the same one if we expand cosine to its exponential form

frank goblet
#

you made a mistake somewhere

#

your solution is complex, it shouldn't be

storm thicket
#

Yeah in the cosine lol

#

Hm

#

Oh also the e^[2ix] on the denominator should be e^[x(i+1)]

frank goblet
#

hmm

mossy bronze
#

Hmmm

storm thicket
#

Its a disgusting one for sure

mossy bronze
#

Use this formula

frank goblet
#

i think not even wolframalpha knows how to lmao, it only has the result, not the steps

storm thicket
frank goblet
#

ok i thinkj it is likely not a standard substitution or int by parts

#

maybe there are other tricks

mossy bronze
frank goblet
#

the only other cool trick i know is feynman's trick or leibniz rule, but that doesn't seem to be usefull neither

mossy bronze
#

Do you notice how you can get rid of e^x +1?

storm thicket
#

This is awfully incorrect XD

midnight haven
storm thicket
#

Ok

midnight haven
#

i think i have an easier method

mossy bronze
storm thicket
#

Oh it does work

mossy bronze
#

Yes

storm thicket
#

Simple integration by parts now:3

mossy bronze
#

Mhm

storm thicket
#

Hply hell that cancellation is amazing

midnight haven
#

right

mossy bronze
#

That formula helps when the limits of the integral are opposites in sign

#

Cancels out most of the time

midnight haven
#

it's called queen's rule here

mossy bronze
#

Oh yes I've been trying to remember the name for so long thanks!

storm thicket
#

Kings rule and queens rule

#

5 damn steps

#

Thanks for the help guys thing

tepid warren
#

Can I just explain this as
(3/4)/(7/256x)=4(x^x)+256?

austere quail
austere quail
#

I don’t know where you got the x^x from, do you have any calculations?

tepid warren
#

Or is it 4x^4x

austere quail
#

or 4xx

tepid warren
#

But how do you solve it

#

The left side is 26x

austere quail
#

First of all, you can remove 2 square roots as sqrt(A) = sqrt(B) gives A=B

tepid warren
#

K

austere quail
#

Then, 25^0=1

tepid warren
#

Wiat 25^0 is 1?

hollow gull
#

yep

tepid warren
#

K that explains why I can’t solve it

#

So teh left side is 64x

#

Teh right side is 4x^x+256?

austere quail
#

No, not the 4x^x.

tepid warren
#

Sorry

#

4x^2

#

So the right side is 4x^2+256?

austere quail
#

yes

tepid warren
#

64x=4x^2+256

austere quail
#

Yes.

tepid warren
#

But I still don’t know how to solve it

#

..

#

Idk how to rewrite 4x^2

austere quail
#

You can divide both sides by 4.

tepid warren
#

So it’s
16x=x^2+256?

austere quail
#

256/4 is not the same as 256

tepid warren
#

My bad

#

It’s
16x=x^2+64

austere quail
#

Yes

tepid warren
#

O

#

X=8

#

Thx

#

Ima close it

tepid warren
#

Yup I’m stuck on another one already

austere quail
#

You can rewrite 2x+10 as 2(x+5)

spare lark
#

Make it under the same denominator

tepid warren
#

Uh

tepid warren
austere quail
#

not sure what a denominator is (language barrier hits hard), but if it’s the lower side of the fraction then you’re right

tepid warren
#

Yeah it’s the lower side of the fraction

thick dagger
#

denomoinator is the dlower thing

tepid warren
#

Do you have to reduction of fractions to a common denominator

austere quail
#

You could do that

tepid warren
#

Is it gonna be more complicated

austere quail
#

(I have another method in mind where you don’t have to do it)

austere quail
#

I’ll write it down, give me a moment

tepid warren
#

Alright

austere quail
tepid warren
#

Kinda hard to read it

austere quail
#

Is my handwriting that bad?

tepid warren
#

No

#

I don’t mean that

#

It’s just

#

Ehh

#

You know

#

I’m only 13

#

I can’t read it

#

Like

#

I don’t understand

austere quail
#

Which part do you not understand?

tepid warren
#

Uhh ima just try and explain in my way

#

So there’s 3 square root 9x+27/x+5

#

And you put it together and it’s 1

austere quail
#

No, there’s 1.5 of them

pearl pondBOT
austere quail
#

oh I messed this up dang it

tepid warren
austere quail
amber urchin
#

guys

tepid warren
#

You mean there’s 1.5 of
Square root 9x+27/2(x+5)?

amber urchin
#

can anyone help me with my problem

tepid warren
austere quail
tepid warren
#

Cuz they have the same molecule?

austere quail
#

Yes, the “blob” I called the parts are both the same

tepid warren
#

But the left denominator is 2x then the right one

#

So the left fraction is 0.5 of the right one?

austere quail
#

Yes

tepid warren
#

Ohhh

austere quail
#

I’ll give an example:
1/4 + 1/2

1/4 = 0.5*(1/2)

tepid warren
#

So you can rewrite it as
Square root [9x+27/1(x+5)]x1.5?

tepid warren
austere quail
#

don’t forget the square root

tepid warren
#

K

#

So it’s like this?

austere quail
#

Yes, and that is equal to one

tepid warren
#

K

#

Time to do the hardest part

#

Calculate

austere quail
#

You can get rid of the 1.5

#

Do you know how?

tepid warren
#

Wiat lemmie write it rq

#

Is it like this?

#

I’m probably wrong

#

Or smth

#

Oh Wiat I’m dumb

#

You need to multiply the denominator

austere quail
#

What did we do before with the 4x^2?

tepid warren
#

➗?

#

Idk the English for that

austere quail
tepid warren
#

Divide

#

Yeah

austere quail
#

Yh

tepid warren
#

Uhh

#

Wait me a sec

#

Is it like this?

mossy bronze
#

Yes

austere quail
tepid warren
#

Time to calculate I guess

#

Wait how do you rewrite the molecule

austere quail
#

Do you mean the square root?

tepid warren
#

Yeah

austere quail
#

You can square both sides

tepid warren
#

Idk how to rewrite the 27

#

Oh yeah I’m dumb

#

Ohhhhhhh

#

You have to do x^2 when there is a square root

#

I’m so dumb

#

.

#

I somehow got
243x+2187/2x+10

mossy bronze
#

2187?

tepid warren
#

Uh

#

(27^2)x3

#

.

#

Now I solved 1080/x+5

mossy bronze
tepid warren
#

..

#

Ohh

mossy bronze
#

Its (3×sqrt(9x+27))²

tepid warren
#

Wait I know now

#

Is it

#

27x+81/4x+100?

austere quail
#

no

tepid warren
#

My head is dying rn

austere quail
#

I don’t think so

mossy bronze
#

U forgot to multiply by something

tepid warren
#

Multiply what.

#

..

#

I’m so confused rn

austere quail
mossy bronze
tepid warren
mossy bronze
#

Yes

tepid warren
#

?

#

Idk

tepid warren
mossy bronze
#

Yes

#

Wait no

austere quail
#

How’d you get 2(x^2)?

tepid warren
#

Uh

#

Cuz I made the fraction to
3(Square root 9x+27)/2(x+5)

mossy bronze
#

Yes and what does (2x+10)² equal ?

tepid warren
#

4x+100?

austere quail
#

no

#

Look at what I sent before

mossy bronze
#

Apply the rule

austere quail
#

(it is 2ab, I messed up something while screenshotting)

tepid warren
#

2x^2+2(2x)x10)+10^2?

mossy bronze
#

(2x)² not 2x²

tepid warren
austere quail
#

You also have to square the two

tepid warren
#

I am so confused

mossy bronze
tepid warren
austere quail
mossy bronze
tepid warren
#

I finally get it

mossy bronze
#

Good

tepid warren
#

So (a+b)^2 is

#

Wait a sec

#

4x^2+2(20x)+10^2?

austere quail
#

yh

tepid warren
#

K

mossy bronze
#

Nice now squre the numerator

tepid warren
#

K

#

3(9x+27)?

mossy bronze
tepid warren
#

So I got this fraction
3(Square root 9x+27)/2(x+5)

#

And now I know the denominator is 4x^2+2(20x)+10^2?

#

So is the numerator 3(9x+27)??

mossy bronze
#

Yes

#

But

tepid warren
#

Thank god I’m finally correct

mossy bronze
#

No wait

tepid warren
#

.

mossy bronze
#

I though it was 9

#

You're wrong

tepid warren
#

The numerator?

mossy bronze
#

Mhm

tepid warren
#

How do I rewrite it

mossy bronze
tepid warren
#

I’m so confused rn

#

When do I need to use ab^2

#

Uh

#

.

mossy bronze
#

It should be like this

#

Then u continue

tepid warren
#

So the numerator is
3^2x 9x+27

#

Uh is that correct?

mossy bronze
# mossy bronze

Btw that's not an x after 3² that's the multiplication symbol

austere quail
#

We use the dot for that

mossy bronze
tepid warren
#

So it’s like this now?

mossy bronze
#

3^2(9x+27)

tepid warren
#

Yeah

#

The “x” after the 3^2 is the multiply symbol

austere quail
#

(Usage of the capital letter (X) can prevent misunderstanding)

tepid warren
#

K

#

So do I solve it now?

austere quail
#

you could do it

tepid warren
#

Yesssss

austere quail
#

If you want to (because this is in a videogame), you can also just use a graphical calculator to solve the problems.

tepid warren
#

Graphical calculator?

austere quail
#

If you don’t have one, nvm what I said

tepid warren
#

K

#

Uh

#

Is X=13?

austere quail
#

There is another solution

tepid warren
#

What is it

austere quail
#

But I think the game will accept 13

gusty moss
#

amon gus

tepid warren
#

The one that requires Reduce the fraction to a common denominator

#

Meh

#

Ima just do it tmr

#

2 am for me…

hybrid basin

Hello

pearl pondBOT
hybrid basin
#

Why isn't b correct?

next dove
jolly parrotBOT
hybrid basin
#

But what's the difference?

#

Both will enlargen the area by 3

next dove
hybrid basin
next dove
#

I think that might change the vector y

#

and hence the cross product

#

cross product is generally calculated by solving a determinant
now I am not sure if you know about that property of determinant or not

hybrid basin
#

I do

#

Then how would (-cy) x x look like?

next dove
#

That if any row is multiplied a constant, for instance say c
then you can take the c out of that determinant but with the power equal to number of entries in that row

hybrid basin
#

So c^3?

next dove
#

oh wait I think wrote it in opposite sense

#

now I see

#

option B should be correct that way

#

I apologize
I misunderstood something before

hybrid basin
#

Oh I confused you mb

#

It says the answer was b

#

Thanks a lot though!

how do I figure out the step pattern for this

!status

pearl pondBOT

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

Angle AGB = 65

Angle BGA =74

Angle G = 180-65-74 = 41

sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b = sin(C)/c => GA = 10 * sin(74)/sin(41) ≈ 14.66yards

sharp smelt
#

Suppose x and y are real numbers, and 3x + 2y ≤ 5. Prove that if x > 1 then y < 1.

sharp smelt
#

so I started by solving for y

#

$y = \frac{5-3x}{2}$

jolly parrotBOT
#

ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know

sharp smelt
#

now $x>1$

jolly parrotBOT
#

ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know

sharp smelt
#

finding the limiting value of y

#

we get y=1

#

now what do I do?

cinder flower
#

if x > 1 then 5 - 3x < ?

hazy solar
#

you can just manipulate x > 1 algebraically directly

sharp smelt
#

oh

quiet tendon
#

just figure out how to turn the inequality for x into an inequality for y

#

first step: x > 1 -> 3x > 3
what do you know about -3x? 5-3x? (5-3x)/2? y?

sharp smelt
#

that;s it?

grand bear
#

hello

pearl pondBOT
grand bear
#

does anyone know what topic of calculus this is?

hazy solar
#

Just first/2nd derivatives test I think

#

and maybe fundamental theorem of calculus for some intermediary steps

grand bear
#

oh got it thank you

#

sorry

#

i remember my teacher talking about optimization here

#

or it might have been for a different question

hazy solar
#

Derivatives tests is a form of optimisation

#

more precisely, the critical points represent a form of an “optimal” point

grand bear
#

ohh

#

do you know what i would need to search to find similar questions to this?

#

is there like a specific name for these types of questions?

obtuse tendon

cunning veldt
#

so if you wanted the equation without any tweaks itd be
Log P = t/50 + 2

#

but if you want it in terms of P itd be

#

P = 10^(t/50 + 2)

#

was that the equation the question was asking for?

#

btw if it wanted it in terms of a and b itd be
ab = 10^(t/50 + 2)
or
log(ab) = t/50 + 2
or
log(a) + log(b) = t/50 + 2

I can get the value of 2 or -2/3

if you sum the horizontal and vertical it would be the same amount how to find the b ?

pearl pondBOT
#

@vocal nebula Has your question been resolved?

spare lark
#

So 5+7+B+3 = 11 + A + 9 + 5 ?

vocal nebula
#

yeah?

#

i dont know

#

i need to find the b

#

i alredy tried that way

random stirrup
#

wdym sum the horizontal and vertical

vocal nebula
#

if i add the vertical

#

it will be the same amout as the horizontal

random stirrup
#

at any square?

#

because at the top right square 11 + A + 9 + 5 = 25 + A and 5 + A + 3 = 8 + A

#

and 25 + A ≠ 8 + A

#

What is horizontal and vertical

vocal nebula
#

the square

random stirrup
#

you have to explain better

vocal nebula
#

sorry my english is bad 😔

vital anchor
#

11 + A + 9 + 5 = 5 +7 + B + 3
11 + 2B + 5 = 5 + A + 3

#

is that whats happening?

vocal nebula
#

yeah

#

wait

#

11 + A + 9 + 5 = 5 +7 + B + 3 = 11 + 2B + 5 = 5 + A + 3

#

i think like this

vital anchor
#

the image appears to be a rectangle with 2 different pairs of side lengths

#

or were you told that all sides were equal?

vocal nebula
#

all sides were equal

#

From the picture above, the sum of all the horizontal blocks is exactly the same as the sum of all the vertical blocks. The B value is...

vital anchor
#

if thats the case, then youre right,
11 + A + 9 + 5 = 5 +7 + B + 3 = 11 + 2B + 5 = 5 + A + 3
it would be like this

#

you can start shifting numbers around to just get a single equation i guess

vocal nebula
#

what do i do after get the single equation?

vital anchor
#

you can get B on one side of the equals sign and everything else on the other, getting an equation for B

vocal nebula
#

okay

#

ill try it

#

thankyou

This is what I've tried. I'm just not really sure how they got definite values for everything.

cursive wraith
#

did you try writing down the diagonalization formula

#

A = PDP^-1

cedar scarab
#

The what

#

I've never even heard of that

cursive wraith
#

ok because that really solves all of your problems

#

D is the diagonal matrix with eigenvalues

#

and P is an invertible matrix with each column being an eigenvector

cedar scarab
#

Ah ok. I recall the teacher saying we need to self teach ourselves how to do diagonalization because our final is next class.

cursive wraith
#

yep...

#

without diagonalization good luck solving this exercise

cedar scarab
#

Fair enough. I shall look up a video on that.

cursive wraith
cedar scarab
#

Shame this class is only 4 weeks. Teacher was actually decent.

#

So $D=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\ 0 & 3\ \end{bmatrix}$?

Narutoes

cedar scarab
#

And then $X=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & -1\ -2 & -3\ \end{bmatrix}$?

So then $A=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & -1\ -2 & -3\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\ 0 & 3\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} -3 & 1\ 2 & -1\ \end{bmatrix}$

mental heath
#

how does this proof hold?

pearl pondBOT
gleaming heath
mental heath
#

let me write

#

the first statement i interpret as containing two contradictions

#

given some existent q less than p

#

(where p is defined)

#

if 5 is the value chosen as a first addend in defining p

#

then p=6

#

which implies q=3 or q=2

#

given that

#

there are multiple terms

gleaming heath
#

so it holds because p = 5 + 1

#

on the assumption that 5 is the only prime

#

so if p is not prime, then we have found a new prime (i.e. 2 or 3)

#

if p is prime, then it is not on our list (i.e. it is not 5)

mental heath
#

oh

#

i see

#

such is stated before that

#

which i read but

gleaming heath
#

Euclid's theorem is a fundamental statement in number theory that asserts that there are infinitely many prime numbers. It was first proven by Euclid in his work Elements. There are several proofs of the theorem.

Euclid offered a proof published in his work Elements (Book IX, Proposition 20), which is paraphrased here.
Consider any finite list ...

mental heath
#

so p is subject to variance

gleaming heath
#

well the assumption is that there are finitely many primes

#

so it supposes you have all of them

mental heath
#

then

#

p must

frail root
#

there are 2n+1 people, sitting around a circle, so there would be (2n)! possibilities for sitting.

and suppose n+1 women are already sitting around the circular table, which has n! possibilitie.
now there exist n+1 positions between women that you can sit men in there ( so you dont get any two man sitting next to each other ). so you would have to choose n positions from n+1 positions available which is C(n+1, n) = n+1
and then you can sit men in those positions with n! possibilities.

so your favorable condition has (n+1)(n!)(n!) = (n+1)!n! possibilities

then the probability is (n+1)!n!/(2n)!

real musk
#

In this case we have -csc2x as the derivative

#

And secxtanx

real musk
#

But I have two derivatives,how can I turn that into ONE derivative for chain rule? @quiet tendon

quiet tendon
#

differentiate X and Y separately

#

term by term

#

and use chain rule for each

#

let’s say a(x) was cot, b(x) was sec, and c(x) = x², then g(x) = a(c(x)) + b(c(x))

#

so g’(x) = a’(c(x)) * c’(x) + b’(c(x)) * c’(x)

real musk
#

So -csc(x2) * 2x + sec(x2)tan(x2) * 2x? @quiet tendon

quiet tendon
#

close but derivative of cot is -csc²

#

other than that that’s right

Dang it the channel randomly closed and I did not catch / nor can I find the thread of which it was in

1-cosx > 0, next?

#

@south inlet sorry had to go find it

south inlet
jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

real musk
#

Thank god ur still here

#

Yes

south inlet
#

ok so since this function isnt continuous at 0, you cant just say the answer equals $\frac{|1-\cos(0)|}{\cos(0)-1}$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

south inlet
#

so you have to manipulate it a bit

#

so are you aware that for x > 0 |x| = x?

real musk
#

Yes.. @south inlet

south inlet
#

so are you ok with saying |1-cosx| = 1 - cosx?

real musk
#

Oh, then yes? That logic makes them the same function

south inlet
#

yeah

south inlet
real musk
#

Ok..? Which means

south inlet
#

well what would be the value of $\lim_{x \to 0^{-}} -1$?

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

real musk
#

-1 - 1 would be -2 punchin in cos (-1) - 1 @south inlet

south inlet
#

why are you putting in cos(-1)

#

what im asking is, if a function is constant, ie the value of the function never changes, what would be the value of the function as x tends to any number?

real musk
#

-1 is a constant…I understand that, maybe it’s the wording

-1? If it never changes?

#

A function in my head is something like x+2 and subbing in for that

south inlet
#

the function will always approach -1

real musk
#

Ok, so in the context of this equation?

real musk
#

1-1 is 0, the limit is always >0?

south inlet
#

well $\frac{|1-\cos(x)|}{\cos(x)-1} = \frac{1-\cos(x)}{\cos(x)-1} = - \frac{\cos(x)-1}{\cos(x)-1} = -1$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

south inlet
#

so the thing inside the limit is just -1

south inlet
real musk
#

And finally, how did we go from 1-cosx /cosx-1 to it being reversed @south inlet

south inlet
#

i took a negative out the front

real musk
#

Man, I hate to keep asking the littlest things I’m just trying to understand, why did you factor out a negative if

1-cosx = -(1-cosx) = -1 + cosx

south inlet
#

basically what i wrote was 1 - cosx = -(cosx - 1)

#

and then you can cancel the cosx - 1 on top and bottom

real musk
#

.

#

I have two more questions to go over from my quiz similar and I’ll cal it a night after

#

I actually get this one from what I was told here

#

Of just setting them equal to each other this is continuous

#

Graph ✅

#

But this one?? @south inlet

#

Reflects a certain rule yes, how can we apply that

#

Why was the square root taken here

south inlet
south inlet
#

$\sin(x) \approx x$ if $x$ is close to $0$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

real musk
#

Following

south inlet
#

so $\frac{\sin^2(3t)}{3t^2} \approx \frac{(3t)^2}{3t^2} = \frac{9t^2}{3t^2} = 3$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

south inlet
#

but since we are taking the limit as t tends to 0, then this is basically an equality

real musk
#

We are ignoring sin

south inlet
#

yeah

real musk
#

A bit confused still by the square root. But I will just include it in my solving process less questions asked

#

Last problem of the night

#

@south inlet here is our answer key I’m comprehending

south inlet
#

ok so its basically asking does $\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{2\tan\left(x - \frac{\pi}{4} \right)}{x - \frac{\pi}{4}} = 1$?

#

😭

real musk
#

Lol

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

south inlet
#

so you can again use something quite handy

#

$\tan(x) \approx x$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

south inlet
#

for x small

#

and when x is close to pi/4 then x - pi/4 is close to 0

#

so $\lim_{x \to \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{2\tan\left(x - \frac{\pi}{4} \right)}{x - \frac{\pi}{4}} = \lim_{x \to \frac{\pi}{4}} \frac{2\left(x - \frac{\pi}{4} \right)}{x - \frac{\pi}{4}}$

jolly parrotBOT
#

eugene_krabs_has_cake

real musk
#

So u can set them equal again

south inlet
#

yeah

#

since you are taking a limit, basically x - pi/4 is coming infinitely close to 0, so this is just an equality

#

and now you can cancel things down

real musk
#

2

south inlet
#

yeah

real musk
#

Or just numerator

south inlet
#

just the numerator

real musk
#

Which gives u -1/1

#

I finally see it now

#

I have my internship morning + midterm tmrw afternoon thank you for all the help, I am going to bed @south inlet KEK

south inlet
#

np

#

but just as an answer to the previous one (hopefully you got this conclusion aswell), f(x) isnt continuous at pi/4

real musk
#

@south inlet because 2 does not equal pi/4 ofc

south inlet
real musk
#

You mean this from its unit circle value? @south inlet

south inlet
#

no

#

just that the limit of the function as x tends to pi/4 doesnt equal the value of the function at pi/4

real musk
#

Where is your 1 coming from

south inlet
#

f(x) = 1

#

at pi/4

real musk
#

#

oh

#

I’m blind

#

Completely forgot about the second constant

#

to eliminate r we found r as a function of h and substituted back in

#

r/h = 5/16

#

and this will be true for at point of time in the cone

#

you can prove this by the similarity of triangles

#

by similarity of triangles

#

yeah

#

but this might works in other cases too

#

was this information given in that question?

#

can you show the work for this problem?

#

where you get incorrect answer

#

here that is not applicable

#

in the case of cone both height and radius were decreasing at the same rate
but here in cylinder, only height is decreasing but not the radius

#

so equality hold for initial condition only

#

here let EB be the level of water at any general point
now consider triangles ABE and ACD:-
angle A is common in both of them
and since CD||BE and AC and AD are transverses, angle ABE=ACD and angles AEB=ADC
hence the both triangles are similar

#

hence, EB/EA = DC/DA

#

at any instant of time

#

exactly

#

yeah you're cooking

#

it is differentiation of Volume with respect to height

#

yeah

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

im only 16

#

idk even this

#

our teacher never taught this

next dove
echo glacier
#

ye

#

i think in 7th grade

#

or 8th

#

i forgot

next dove
#

whatever

#

do you know about the formula for sum of the first n squares?

echo glacier
#

no

#

thats why im here

#

i wont come here if i know them bro

next dove
#

so maybe they want it done by something else
that you know

echo glacier
#

yeah

#

it was done by someone else

#

i just want to know the answer

next dove
echo glacier
#

no

#

idk

#

bro

#

i cant even solve it

next dove
#

your teacher gave it right?

echo glacier
#

no

#

it was a quiz bro

#

in a game

#

idk what is ans

next dove
#

This server is to help you learn math
not to give answer for a game

echo glacier

ok

maybe you should get to know about concept

The purpose of this server is to help you learn, not to hand out answers. Do not ask someone to give you the answer directly.

We're happy to help you learn, and this is a very complicated question.

But we're not here to give answers.

ok thanks

if you're interested in just getting an answer, you may be able to find one on the OEIS, A001599

echo glacier
#

oh

#

ok

#

OMG

#

OEIS

#

yea i remember

#

tahnk u sir

#

u are a child of god

cunning veldt
#

or you could also just use chatgpt
its not always 100% reliable but its a decent last resort

spiral pivot
#

don't even joke about that.

#

!chatgpt

#

oh, that's not one

Please do not trust ChatGPT or similar AI tools for mathematical tasks, as they often generate output which "sounds correct" but has numerous factual or logical errors. Use of these AI tools to answer other people's help questions is strictly against server rules (see #rules).

cunning veldt
#

i never said its reliable

spiral pivot
#

In fact you implied it was unreliable, but still.

cunning veldt
#

im just saying if he wants a direct answer and cant find it anywhere, and this thing isnt that important anyway since its just a game, he COULD use it

#

yeah i do firmly believe its unreliable

#

like well above 50% of the time

echo glacier
#

wtf

#

didnt work

spiral pivot
#

I didn't say you wouldn't have to work for it

#

just if you want a solution, there is code at the bottom in multiple different languages that allows you to generate however many of these integers you want

echo glacier
#

bruh

#

i cant do math

#

i think chess is more easy

#

i can mate in 13

cunning veldt
echo glacier
#

ofc

#

for fun

#

its for fun

#

but im actually depress

cunning veldt
#

then go on chess.com or something, if you aint even willing to put in a nudge of effort for the answer😭

echo glacier
#

no lol

#

i want to answer this

spiral pivot
#

Then answer it

echo glacier
#

more thrill

#

yea

#

im gonna bruteforce

#

im gonna start typing random numbers

spiral pivot
#

Good luck, with that.

cunning veldt
#

now i actually wanna find a non brute force way to solve this tbh

#

but i suck at number theory so its probably not happening sadly

spiral pivot
#

It's legitimately a very hard problem, and I don't know a good approach to figuring it out without brute forcing either.

cunning veldt
#

yeah its like suspiciously hard, feels like we're missing something

#

usually games like those never involve stuff that is that hard to prove or doesnt have a general rule

spiral pivot
#

Also actually calculating the 2023rd harmonic number seems like it would require a considerable amount of compute

cunning veldt
#

well im sure the problem relies on the fact that theres some neat pattern which makes you not have to actually compute the number/divisors/harmonic mean

#

i hope so atleast...

spiral pivot
#

Well, looking into it, it seems like perfect numbers are harmonic integers, but also some RMS numbers, but not all, and there are still multiple open conjectures about them on the oeis page.

pearl pondBOT
#

@echo glacier Has your question been resolved?

cunning veldt
#

i dont think this question is getting solved anytime soon tbh😭

#

it doesnt seem like theres much known about these harmonic divisor numbers in the first place at all

glass bolt
#

Why is the set convex?

pearl pondBOT
glass bolt
#

My tutor just said the set of all x where f(x) >=c is convex so the function concave

#

No explanation

#

Because its a vector ofnpoints?

cursive wraith
#

the set is convex because it's an interval

#

oh wait

#

it's in R^n

#

well anyways if it's in R^n it looks like it's a closed ball

#

closed balls are convex

glass bolt
#

So like any two points is contained in the set

#

Line segment between two points

#

Is that the formal definition?

cursive wraith
#

the formal definition is indeed "for any two points inside the set, the points of the segment are inside the set too"

glass bolt
#

So its a convex set in R?

cursive wraith
glass bolt
#

Or because its line segment between points in the interval is unobstucted

cursive wraith
#

is it a function from R^n to R

glass bolt
cursive wraith
#

or a function from R to R

#

ok it is a function from R to R I think

#

well here

#

An interval is always a convex set

#

by definition of an interval

#

intervals are the convex sets of R

#

so

glass bolt
#

But surely everything is a convex set of R?

cursive wraith
#

no

#

{1,2} is a subset of R

#

yet the segment that connects 1 and 2 is [1,2]

glass bolt
#

And that subset is convex requires the line segments within that subset to be within the set

cursive wraith
#

with 2 points of a subset A, you can create the line segment that connects them

glass bolt
#

Yes

cursive wraith
#

all of the points of that line segment must also be in A

#

for A to be convex

glass bolt
#

Ok

cursive wraith
glass bolt
#

Ty for the help

#

Why
