note that you can integrate in either order
then x will be treated as a constant

can someone help me with calculation of eigenvector? I'm supposed to do it by hand and 227.519 is only approximation of my eigenvalue because exact form looks horrendous.
what next steps do you recommend me?
Yikes those are some ugly numbers. Who hates you this much?
professor of computer graphics, arguably the worst person at uni
by hand? Computer graphics?
yeah, he is mathematician but specializes in this CG
actually this is bonus task
i want those bonus points, because im note sure by other tasks
guys, do you have any ideas how to process further?
the matrix at the end is invertible, so assuming everything inbetween is correct, the desired value is not an eigenvalue
u sure ur eigenvalue is 227.519?
"just find the polynomial form of the matrix bruh"
the det(X.In - M) in question:
yeah this is peak cubic formula gone wrong material
you sure you need this?
dont get it
yeah
very specifically this matrix by hand?
unforrtunately
well, f*ck you then
best of luck with your endeavors, it appears I'm not able to help further
thanks, its awful, every student has different matrix based on birthday
no way
or, do you happen to be more than 23 in class?
this professor is just messing around
yeah unless he was very careful this might lead to untractable computations very easily
anyway he said one eigenvector or the whole subspace?
over 50
do the kernel of the matrix for the latter
i think one eigenvector is enough
yeah, but it is also very likely that other people would not know how to calculate it
- find someone who has
- change your bday to theirs
thats also way

Yes
But the multiplication is confusing idk how to do it
Okay so
First
X times 2y
That’s 2xy right
Yes
multiplying by 1/3 is the same as dividing by 3
but you could just leave 1/3 as the coefficient
like just (1/3)x
Huh
there are many ways of writing it
How do I write that in the ()
$\frac{1}{3}x$
YakuBros
So it’s gonna look like that
With a plus infront
And the -(y/3) times 2y is -(y/3)2y
it can simplified further
How
kaue
it's a product, so you can move terms around and it doesn't change it
$\frac{-y}{3} \cdot 2y$ is the same as $\frac{-y \cdot 2y}{3}$ which is the same as $\frac{-2 \cdot y \cdot y}{3}$ and you have two y's there so it becomes y² like this $\frac{-2y^2}{3}$
kaue
noo
yes
Okay now I multiply -y/3 and +1/3
yeah
So -(y/3)
noo
Whyyyy
but with the negative sign
distribute the 3
How
Ohhh
Okay wait
When I multiply
The three
Info the / thingies
Do I do it with the top and bottom
Or only tip
Top
only the top and keep the bottom
almost
Wdym
$\frac{3}{9}$ can be reduced to $\frac{1}{3}$
kaue
so you still have a 3 below the y
kaue
there's not much to do now
So it’s done
the question was asking to distribute and simplify right?
Exactly
yeah it's done
I have a strong feeling Thai will be wrong everytime it’s long it’s wrong
I’m gonna try
Wait
Yeah if was wrong
Do you want me to show u the whole calculation
If we did it wrong somewhere
yeah
yes it's wrong
My fault 😭
yay
I’m gonna try to do the next one myself but it looks harder
good luck!

X/2 times x/2
OH
IF WAS
THE numbers from the question above
Went l to it
And I for confused
Got
Is this right
Do I need to put -y^2 over a 2
every term, it's like you're distributing the division of 2 to each of them
$\frac{\bigl(\frac{3}{4}\bigr)}{2}$
kaue
Oh man
I don’t kno…
the 2 joins the denominator, so you have $\frac{3}{4 \cdot 2}$
kaue
$\frac{\bigl(\frac{3}{4}\bigr)}{2} = \frac{3}{4 \cdot 2} = \frac{3}{8}$
kaue
How did the x^2 become 3
no, this is just an example
Ohh
then you apply the same logic to the other problem
So it becomes x^2/8
Whyyyy
Okayyy
$\frac{\frac{xy}{2} - \frac{x^2}{4} - y^2 + \frac{xy}{2}}{2}$ becomes $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(\frac{x^2}{4}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(y^2\bigr)}{2} \frac{\bigl(\frac{}{}\bigr)}{2}
kaue
$\frac{\frac{xy}{2} - \frac{x^2}{4} - y^2 + \frac{xy}{2}}{2}$ becomes $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(\frac{x^2}{4}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(y^2\bigr)}{2} \frac{\bigl(\frac{}{}\bigr)}{2}
```Compilation error:```! Argument of \bBigg@ has an extra }.
<inserted text>
\par
l.1421 ... becomes $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}}\bigr
)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(\frac{...
I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything.
For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce
this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that
I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway
argument that might be the root of the problem. But if
your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away.```
phone dead hold on
Oh my
phone alive let me fix that
Okayyyy
$\frac{\frac{xy}{2} - \frac{x^2}{4} - y^2 + \frac{xy}{2}}{2}$ becomes $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(\frac{x^2}{4}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(y^2\bigr)}{2} \frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2}$
uff
Huuuh
you didn’t close some of these frac
$\frac{\frac{xy}{2} - \frac{x^2}{4} - y^2 + \frac{xy}{2}}{2}$ becomes $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(\frac{x^2}{4}\bigr)}{2} - \frac{\bigl(y^2\bigr)}{2} + \frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2}$
kaue
where
Third part
youre dividing by 2 not multiplying remeber
But it didn’t have anything under it
And then we made it two
Doesn’t it mean
It becomes two
i think you're confusing it with multiplying by 2
And didn’t the four become 8
How
I’m so confused
let's go one term at a time
Okay
so the first one is $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2}$
kaue
kaue
like how we got it
yeah ok, so let's try to simplify this
you see the denominator is 2, and then there's another 2
Yes
$\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2}$ becomes $\frac{xy}{2 \cdot 2}$
kaue
because the 2 joins the other on the denominator
let me try to explain
do you know how we can multiply top and bottom by the same number and it doesnt change the fraction?
like if we have 1/2 we multiply top and bottom by 3 we get 3/6
and it's still the same as 1/2
take $\frac{\bigl(\frac{xy}{2}\bigr)}{2}$ and multiply top and bottom by the number 2
kaue
kaue
right
Aaaaa I still don’t get why were multiplying in the 2
Where
Yeah and now im lost
so after simplifying that it just becomes $\frac{\bigl(xy\bigr)}{2 \cdot 2}$, which is what we had when joined the 2 on the denominator
kaue
um
But why is the 2 going inside
like $\frac{2}{3}$ divided by $\frac{4}{5}$
kaue
yeaa
yay
so
Wait
This is so long
The 2 stays the same
Isn’t it supposed to flip
Like
2/1–> 1/2
yess
So wait
One sec
I’m gonna write this
Woops
Theres supposed to be a four
There
don't forget the parenthessi
Wait I fix
Where do I put them
1/2 is multiplying the whole expression
like 1/2 × a + b + c should be written a s 1/2 × (a + b + c)
yess
yeah distribute it
,rotate
,rotate
now combine similar terms
The xy
yes
Can I do more
those are the only similar terms
So this should be the answer
you can simplify 2/4
yes
what language is that
Swedish
,w expand (x/2 - y)(y - x/2)/2
got it
I don’t understand
no the two comes after hou multiply by 1/2
,rotate
you havent multiplied by 1/2 in that step yet
So I just keep the -y^2
try multiplying this by 1/2
you wrote -y²/2 instead of -y² before multiplying by 1/2
basically you multiplied by 1/2 twice
Dammit
you multiplied the brackets
Okay
and now you divide by 2 (which is multiply by 1/2)
yeah, now again combine the xy similar terms
It’s right
I tried it
That was impulsive
If it was wrong the question would’ve been marked red
yay
Thank uuuuu🤗
One last question left on lvl 5 let’s see if I can at least do this one without help

For example:
2x + 4 = 2(x + 2)
It's just using the distributive law
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Same thing for the other side:
(b + c)a = ba + ca
a, b, c can be anything
You can take out a number that is a multiple of both the coeficcients
So for example,
Since 3 is a factor of both 6 and 9
it would become 3(2x+3)
Got it?😊

I wanted help on how to start this question
My trail of ideas for this:
first the cup itself is always parallel to the tangent line at a point it's on, so that means that it is parallel to g'(x), and so would that imply that the slope itself of the water spilling = g'(x)
the larger |g'(x)| the larger the magnitude of the rate of change of the volume of the cup gets and so there is a positive correlation between the two. So then the crux of this question is to find the relation btwn g'(x) and the ROC of volume of the water.
the volume of water = h(w^2) and that can be written as 2w^3. But it's at this point i get stuck. I was thinking maybe since the width of the cup is parallel to g'(x) we can sub it into that but I don't know if that makes sense
i'm trying to think of it as a related rates problem and idk if that is the right approach and there are other concepts connected to it

Hey guys I require assistance with the b part of this question
[
\cos \angle OPQ = \frac{\vec{PO} \cdot \vec{PQ}}{|\vec{PO}| |\vec{PQ}|}
]
Edmund Cloudsley (Hello CHAT)
Is this corrrect?
and then [
\cos \angle OPQ = \frac{\langle -7, -3 \rangle \cdot \langle 3, 2 \rangle}{\sqrt{(-7)^2 + (-3)^2} \cdot \sqrt{3^2 + 2^2}}
]
Edmund Cloudsley (Hello CHAT)
Edmund Cloudsley (Hello CHAT)
,w evaluate -7 * 3 + -3 * 2
however this doesn't become -15
it evaluates to -27
Would really appreciate if someone can tell me where I am going wrong
btw feel free to ping me
<@&286206848099549185>
double check your components for PQ
Oh I see my error now
vector PQ should be <10 - 7, 1 - 3> = <3, -2>

Hi !
I wanted to know how to find the square time 6 of -27 ?
I did this for now but i'm super confused ,-,
should I convert -27 to 27e^(ipi) ?
since r is a positive number ?
?
@rough forge So it's it ?
i am having a hard time reading, what's your question
My question is finding the solution of w⁶ = -27
achso
(complexe number inclued)

hello how do you do part c
AHHHH
scared me
ok
lets do it
you can simplify the expression by factoring 2 from cos(2pi/5) and cos(pi/5)
hm? like turn the expression into 2(cos2pi/5-cospi/5+1/2)=0?
yeah you can do that
okk where do i go from there
it looks somewhat similar to part b but idk what to do with that information :/

;-;
Brev
See that 2cos (2pi/5)
U can use that thing idk it's name in english so it becomes 2(2cos^2 (pi/5) - 1)
how does that turn it into exact values though?
Can you use a calculator ?
But idk to be honest
That's the only thing that got in my mind
nope the calculator don't give me exact values
rip it's ok
I'll ask my teacher
alright thanks
once you have deduced that 2cos2pi/5 - 2cospi/5 + 1 = 0
u can use the double angle formula for cos pi/5
and turn the equation into a quadratic in terms of cos pi/5
so if u find the roots
u can find the exact value of cos pi/5 and cos 2pi/5
@junior vapor Has your question been resolved?
i havent touched 4U in 3 years but if i remember correctly you have to expand part b but selecctively expand the terms that result in z^3
then u match the z^3 term on the LHS with the z^3 term on the RHS

how many possible cases is there for black to move the king from a4 to h4? is it possible to solve this one using combinatorics or binomial theorem?
what moves are you allowed to do
if you are allowed to go backwards then clearly there are infinitely many options
something like this should work
We can have 3 possibilities per move for the first 3 moves.
Then if we are at the d7, then 2 possibilities for that position, if we go to e7 then again 2 cases, similarly 2 cases for f6 and g5.
tldr for any tile on the chessboard, there are (the number) on the tile ways to get thers, for example to get to d3 there are 6 ways to go there
it looks like the pascal triangle not gonna lie
its simmilar but each one goes to 3 instead of 2
what do you mean by this?
pascals triangle would be something like this
our case would be something like this
oh i get it, so we have 3 choices to go after every move, while in pascal we can have 2
how can I proceed after this?
@unreal thistle Has your question been resolved?
Yes, this is the correct idea. The idea that they use here is called dynamic programming, where you write the number of ways to reach a square in terms of previous squares. You can do this because you are only allowed 7 moves, so they all must be forward, hence you can write the number of ways for each square within the red boundary as illustrated
and do the summation of them in the end to get the answer? is there an alternative approach other than counting each case?
also you proceed after this by just filling in the rest of the squares using the previous squares and then finding the number of ways of reaching the other side
The number you write for H4 should be your answer
oh okay. is there any other idea which we can use to solve this problem?
Not that I’m aware of
can anyone help me this (x^2+4x+3)^2+(x+3)^2 find x to this expression has a perfect squares number
I recommend you first open your own help channel for this problem, but what I’ll say first is that you can factorise the x^2+4x+3
First open another channel
Because someone else was here already
From there I can help you
Try any open one like #help-25
ok
Sorry for the inconvenience. If you have any doubts, let me know in dms or express them here, otherwise what we have said should be enough to solve the problem
it's fine. I was just thinking if it's feasible enough or not. appreciate the help!

Closed by @unreal thistle
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
if it's okay can I dm about how the idea used here is related to dynamic programming? isn't it about breaking the problems into subproblems?
Sure you can dm me, and idk what you mean by that. It’s just like finding the number of ways to reach a square in terms of other so called adjacent squares
so it's more related to the pascal triangle right. but 3 choices instead of 2, and 2 instead of 1 on the edges
Yeah it is, all the way up to the middle of the board. Then you kinda work backwards if you get what I mean
Yes, you are correct in this instance
i get it. I got confused because I thought dynamic programming is about breaking the problems into subproblems
nvm thanks for the help!

how am I supposed to do this
without guessing?
or you just have to show it has 3 solutions 
or disprove 
prove or disprove
ok so
you can see it has one for x=2
so
consider two subintervals
and try to apply ivt
for that you consider
f(x) = x²-2^x = 0
i highly doubt that
Are you a constructivist or sth?
hi sorry to disturb, im new to this server and i wanna ask for help, can i just do that in any of these "help-##" channels?
I'm a formalist'
yes, as long as They haven't bee claimed
you need to know that there are 3 real sols, nobody wants you to find them
I see
okay, then IVT works
What is that
similar to intuionistic logic, idk how exactly it works. They basically dont like any indirect proofs

Does this use of double arrows <=> mean iff, in this context, or something else?
I think that I intuitevly understand what the author mean, but I just wondered if that use of double arrow is standard use.
I dont like that use
it looks like it just stands for a hyphen here
it literally just matches the function to its inverse
yeah, I think maybe its just a like a graphics for arrows pointing both ways, without the "iff" implication.

What do I do now
<@&286206848099549185>
I think something went wrong. where does the n on the denominator come from?
wdym
i did the ratio test and got this
the denominator you got is 2nln(n+1)
I think it should be 2ln(n+1) instead
oh i wrote it wrong by accident i meant 2^n ln(n+1)
actually it should jsut be 2
yes
so what do i do afterwards
okay, so if we agree that it should be
$\frac{(x-2)\ln(n)}{2\ln(n+1)}$
what does the ratio test tell you?
LayneTheAndroid
yes, you should check what the limit of the above is as n goes to infinity
yeah im confuse on that
so it becomes (x-2) times inf/ inf?
not quite. have you seen this situation before where you see inf/inf when taking a limit?
okay, so you'll need to use other methods to figure out what the limit actually
let's just focus on working out the limit $\lim_{n\rightarrow{\infty}}\frac{ln(n)}{ln(n+1)}$ for now
LayneTheAndroid
could you use log rules to make this expression simpler?
LayneTheAndroid
how
because $n=(n+1)\frac{n}{n+1}$
LayneTheAndroid
i just multiplied and divided by the same number
so what am i suppose to do with that
use log rules to simplify $\frac{ln(n)}{ln(n+1)}=\frac{ln((n+1)\frac{n}{n+1})}{ln(n+1)}$
LayneTheAndroid
i.e i've done the first step, you need to do the rest
idk ive never even seen this
you know log rules, though. If you've never seen limits of the form inf/inf then I'm not sure how else to do it other than by manipulating the expression to be easier to work with
well, have you maybe seen limits of the form $\frac{0}{0}$?
LayneTheAndroid
yeah i know to solve that with l hopital
ah okay so inf/inf is the same
the reason is that you can rewrite a inf/inf limit to be a 0/0 limit.
either way you can use L'Hopital
yes, that's fine; that's a constant anyway
Doesn’t x-2 become 1 and 2 become 0
what variable are you differentiating with respect to when using L'Hopital?
Ok so it becomes n+1/ n?
Also does the n=2 in the sigma matter. Cus the ones I did before were n=0
if you're just talking about $\lim_{n\rightarrow{\infty}}\frac{ln(n)}{ln(n+1)}$ then yes, doing L'Hoptials would mean this is the same as $\lim_{n\rightarrow{\infty}}\frac{n+1}{n}$
LayneTheAndroid
Wasn’t that what I was supposed to do
That’s what I did
when it comes to the radius of convergence it doesn't matter
well you started talking about the "whole thing including (x-2)/2" so I wasn't sure which you were talking about in the end
well $\frac{n+1}{n}$ doesn't tend to $\infty$.
LayneTheAndroid
remember the $n$ becomes $\infty$ too
LayneTheAndroid
yes. you can get that either by simplifying the fraction or doing L'Hopital again
yes
Ok so the IOC is (0,4) I got 0<x<4) and ROC is Is x-2<1 which makes it 3?
Ioc =(0,4) and ROC=3
@hallow ice
I agree with the interval of convergence (although did you check if it is the closed or open interval). Radius I'm not sure is correct
where did you get $x-2<1$ from?
LayneTheAndroid
Well i remember YouTube video said whatever is being raised to n power make it <1 and that’s radius
And (x-2)^n x-2 is raised to n
two things:
- there's something else being raised to the power of 2
- if you were just going off that, what was the point in doing the ratio test? in fact the ratio test gave you the quantity you need to bound above by 1
here (although you'd need to take the absolute value of this)
Idk that’s just what I saw
So how do I find the radius
let's just go off the working we've actually done
what does the ratio test tell you?
If less than 1 it converge
yes. if what is less than 1?
which is what in this case?
X-2/ 2
yes (but remember the ratio test asks for absolute values)
Ok but it is positive so it doesn’t need it
is it positive? what if x=0?
Ok so |x-2/2|
yes (also better to use parantheses). That needs to <1.
$\frac{|x-2|}{2}<1$
can you use that equation to find the radius of convergence?
LayneTheAndroid
X<4
how did you get that?
recall the definition of the radius of convergence:
for a series
$\sum_{n} a_n(x-a)^n$
The radius of convergence $r$ is the number such that the series converges for
$|x-a|<r$
and diverges for
$|x-a|>r$
LayneTheAndroid
I got x alone by times 2 both sides and then adding 2
Am I not suppose to get x by itself
nope, the definition of radius of convergence is what I gave above, so it's in terms of |x-a|
(also you can't do that, you ignored the absolute value, but that's besides the point right now)
https://youtu.be/TGD-TP1c7i4?si=C7I458MeeVFoJ-Le at 1:20:53 he says that ROC is whatever is under the n power
Calculus 2 Lecture 9.7: Power Series, Calculus of Power Series, Using Ratio Test to Find Interval of Convergence
So does that not work for all problems or what
it looks like he's pointing to the 1 when he says "whatever that number is, that's the radius of convergence",
so he's saying
you're looking for the thing being raised to the power of n in the series (in his case x, in yours x-2)
and the radius of convergence is the thing that bounds |thing being raised to the n| above after doing the ratio test
So x-2<1?
... no, the inequality we found from the ratio test was
$\frac{|x-2|}{2}<1$
LayneTheAndroid
LayneTheAndroid
Ok so ROC IS 2 and IOC IS (0,4) not checked yet
yes, although double check if 0 and 4 are included in the interval or not
What does it have to do = to for brackets again
And parenthesis
$[a,b]$ means all numbers including all $a$ and $b$
$(a,b)$ means all numbers greater than $a$ and less than $b$
$[a,b)$ all numbers greater than $a$, and $a$ itself, and all numbers less than $b$
to check $0$ and $4$ are included, trying inserting $x=0$ or $x=4$ and checking if the resulting series converges or not
if it converges, then that means that number is part of the IOC
LayneTheAndroid
So if I plug those numbers in the answer has to be less than 1?
no, the ratio test doesn't work for the end points of the IOC, you need to check the series yourself using other methods

i have an exam tomorrow, and ive missed almost all my classes recently bc of lung infections and dengue, almost died, but im having trouble completely understanding binomial expansions. We only have three formulas, which are the nCr formula, the factorial expansion formula, same expansion with nCr formula, and the (1+x)^n formula. can someone give me a breakdown and teach me to do them with examples? thanks
i can send the formulas if you want
the first two contain the formulas and the last page has the sums im confused about
oh
i need one or two examples if possible
and he also gave us a different fprmula for nCr, one sec
sec* lmao
i do get how the factorial formula turns into an nCr expansion but the problem is mostly in how we do the problems and how to work it out, and also how to find the range of values of x for which an expansion is valid
p sure theres a formula for that right
x mod is less than the root of the term/coefficient of x inside the bracket right?
i dont have time to explain all this rn bc itll take a hottt minute but i wish u the best of luck and there are always lectures online too
can someone else help me?

I need some help with this question. How can i tell from a derivative of a graph, where the original graph is inc/dec?
well
the derivative of the function at a point gives the slope of that function at that point
so between -1 and 0, the value of the derivative is positive, which means if the slope is positive, the function is increasing?
yes
there are also 2 more intervals on which the derivative is positive so include that in your final answer
so (-inf, -3) U (-1, 0) U (3, inf)?
yes
wait the wording of this question is really weird. is the graph f or f'?
the graph is f`
so im trying this but that doesn't seem to work
my initial thought is that im using ( ) where [ or ] is needed
its decreasing on (0,3) not (0,2)
ah shit i keep confusing it with mins/max
okay thanks! i was wildly overcomplicating this

Can someone tell me how I know if this graph is planar or not. I have been trying to shift the edges and vertexs but I cant figure it out.
@frail oxide Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
topic ?
Keep trying 
hint: there are two vertices here with two neighbors, those neighbors are also connected directly
You can basically ignore those and add them back at the end
So I can just treat it like this?
here's a cool website where you can make a graph and move it around https://graphonline.top/en/
Create graph online and use big amount of algorithms: find the shortest path, find adjacency matrix, find minimum spanning tree and others
But is their a way to move the edges?
but I thought to find if something is planar the vertexs have to context without the edges crossing
correct
so how does just moving the vertexs help
uhm
Never mind
this graph is planar

guys
are you ready for my questions
just ask them
No need to ask “Can I ask…?” or “Does anyone know about…?”—it’s faster for everyone if you just ask your question! See https://dontasktoask.com/
Insane that you still haven't posted your question
I will be closing the channel in 5 mins
As you have occupied this channel for half an hour without posting a question
I'm sorry
yeah, the question here is to derivate this.
Do you wanna see my method?
yes, you should always show your work
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
the word is differentiate
logarithm method, as you can see.
Well, the thing is that I got that monstrosity there at the end.
and, well, I don't think that's the answer. =(
what do you guys think about this.
jesus this handwriting
highkey i leave it as it is
if u try to simplify it, ur gonna put urself thru even more torture
Do you mean that's correct
lemme work on it rq
Okay, thank you very much.
okay yeah its correct
Why tho
wdym why
why is it correct
u were left with f'(t)/f(t) right?? after finding the derivative of everything on the right side of the equation
Yeah.
so what did u do with the f(t) to isolate f'(t) by itself?
Multiply everything by f(t)
yeah
and in this case
f(t) is just original equation
@timid sable you still have a doubt?
Yeah, with the next exercise

I am not sure what is wrong here
the step where you subtract 1.5x from both sides
just a tip for next time: you should expect the answer to be wrong if you get a fractional amount of people and you should check your work before submitting
hehe, got it.
alright thanks.
you simply need to combine like terms for the x part
2.5
-2.5x on the left
