LMAO
yeah so he has to work more than 6 hours to gain money
is he in debt to the person whose house he is renovating
lol
it's less than 6 hours btw, like 4 or 5
@compact ridge @warm copper are you still here i just finished part c and was wondering if you guys could check it
this is the last part btw
ok
what's part c?
i was following a vid again for this
like all this basically but somehow i got the same answer as them
isn't that wrong
wdyM?
should be $\frac{3(x+h)^2 - 75 - (3x^2 - 75)}{h}$
southlander!
yeah
hold up lemme fix it
southlander!
but like is it still (x+h)(x+H)
okay okay
okay fixed it
how does it look
is it h(3h + 6x) there
yes and then divide by h
so it would be 3h + 6x right
Difference quotient? Is that another way of writing dy/dx
nearly
it's the definition of the derivative without the limit $h \to 0$
southlander!
So like ∆y/∆x
so yeah if you take $h \to 0$
congrats you've just done calculus, you've shown that $\frac{d}{dx} (3x^2 - 75) = 6x$
southlander!
mhm
yes
finallyy thank you so much
super difficult but pushed through
couldnt have done it without u guys dude ❤️
no worries!

Anywone kindly help me with this graph
Why did the portion marked disappeared?
oh because |y| is never negative
so if sin x is negative, then the function doesn't exist cause of the |y|
Oh yeah thanks thanks
I was confused cz of that -sinx. Lmao now that I think -(-sinx) yeah got it

Alright what the sigma is going on for part c
Find r where a station value means dA/dr=0 right
And we solve for r
To find max/minimum we continue solving for d^2A/dR^2 by subbing in r
I don't get the last part what do they mean by find the stationary value of a
Isint it 0...
U mean to find r right?
But how do we find the stationary value of a
Find r using this
And then plug r in the original equation for A
Wait why plug into original eqn
So that area represents the rate of change of area is not changing when we use that r value?

3C b
write the problem in english pls
use the formula for area of triangle and parallelogram
both have the same heights
But how do i know i contructed a perpendicular line
PORS is a parallelogram, and we can see that triangles POS and RSO are congruent
so both have same area
can you figure what area of POS is then?

How to calculate
4^31 + 5^67?
not practical without a calculator
@split bridge Has your question been resolved?
Why can’t you add 31+67?
it's not very funny
what's up?
Wats the help ?
what's the problem?
How to add two powers?
Bruh , he gave funny problem
If there are in multiplication I guess
He is asking the normal one
I can't understand, the force has size and direction
Dude , he is not asking physics question , he is asking just basic exponents
That dude ask how to calculate 5^67 + 4^31
Exactly
It’s called powers
Yo dude , do you want the answer in terms of power ??
Or else, I better execute answer in python
adding two powers involve multiplication of two numbers with the same base
that is neither
So I can’t?
nope
either use a calculator or find some godly algorithm that allows you to do it by hand

does 0^infinity and infinity^0 indeterminate form?
yes
0^infinity is not indeterminate
something very small to the power of something very big will always be something very small

infinity^0 is basically infinity/infinity in this way

i need someone to explain this to me
i tried to think about it and worked with different sources but i somehow cant get my head around that concept
why can we just set it smaller than one half? Is it just because we get as close to the lim as we want to regsrding infinity? and why do we choose 1/2?
Follows from definition of limsup. Do you know it?
yes
wait wrong one but same principle lol
i thought of it as the lim of the supremums going towards infinity so the smallest upper bound when n grows infinitely large right?
Yea so this tells you that there's always an n1 for which the limsup is within a given error
|xk - limsup(xn)| < error
for all k>n1
so by this def i can just pick a series of "errors" which just converges to 0?
Yes

Pls more help with proofs
So i have to show that |A| =< |AuB|
So i know there must be injective function so that it will be correct
Because of cantor theory
so i defined f:A -> AuB
And i also fixed f(a)=a, where a is in A
used injection definiton such as a1,a2 in A so a_1 != a_2 => f(a_1) != f(a_2)
and i know that f(a)=a because i defined function
right

Is my proof good
So if AcB and BcC then thanks to transitivity i know that A c C and i know that |A| = |C|, so it means set A contains same amount of elements as C then i can say that A=C so now if A=C and AcBcC then i can write that CcBcC so that means that B=C and if sets are equal then we can write it as |B|=|C|
what if A = {2,4,..., 2n, ...} and C = {1,2,3,...}? then A c C and |A|=|C|, but A is not equal to C
Oh crap
So i use here equuivalence of sets definition such as there has to be bijection
and then continue the proof with it
I asked it incase that proof might work aswell
Thanks!

what is the volume of the largest cylinder that can fit inside a closed rectangular box measuring 12 inches by 10 inches by 8 inches?
What’s the justification for why the cylinder can’t be along the space diagonal of the rectangular box? is it just because it intuitively feels like it leaves empty space?
Like relative to keeping it horizontally or vertically
just think of putting a cylinder in a rectangular box
it would be very difficult to pack along the space diagonal
so horizontal or vertical is the most efficient way to pack
yeah but like idk
that doesn’t justify why that can’t be a case too?
i dont know a definitive proof, it just intuitively feels correct
if i want to write a solution, i have to say why im excluding a case right? i also did it horizontally and vertically
hmm
but like i don’t have any justification for the other cases i excluded
i would search it up ngl
okay but search what?
@quick star Has your question been resolved?
well, you might think to just compute what the dimensions of such a cylinder would be. it’s not immediately obvious from the definition of “cylinder” and “box”, but one might draw a picture and compute the dimensions of the cylinder in the case where it sits diagonally in the box so that it can’t get any bigger
one principle that might be useful here is that a cylinder has equal volume as a parallelepiped with the same cross-sectional area
which is much more easily justified than the conclusion you’re trying to make
and then use that principle somehow
not sure if it’s actually useful though. i’m not as sharp today but if i come up with some other easy or clever path to proving something like this
then i’ll share

pp
Are you familiar with the formula for a sum of numbers in a geometric series? (I am trying to guess where do you have a problem in this)
what is the prime factorization of 90 my brain is not braining
wasnt it
first value
is this channel open?
afraid not
..
2 × 3 × 3 × 5
😂
breh
😄 lol it wasn't yours
let me go back to that serieees
You understand here how the rate was calculated?
the rate is e^x right
yes. We divide 2 consecutive terms, after we notice dividing any 2 consecutive terms give same result (e^x)
alright
How about the formula for the sum of geometric series; know it?
so the rate is e^x
and the first thingy is e^x
which is u1
what was the equation again
for geometric
I'll apply the rules used here, so:
S_n=u_1 (1-r^{n+1})/(1-r)
I dont think it's too clear to understand like this, let me find it on google so it's written nicer
alright
The geometric sum formula is used to calculate the sum of the terms in the geometric sequence. Understand the geometric sum formula with Derivations, Examples, and FAQs.
here, a=u_1, in your exercise
on the site, you should look at "geometric sum formula for finite terms"
The font is quite small; tell me if you found it
yes, and now we're supposed to apply this to our exercise
by switching a and r with what we have in the exercise
although your exercise looks quite strange; I might have to research this a bit, as it seems there's 2 unknowns in it: you don't know neither x, nor n
e^x(1-e^x^n+1)/1-e^x
If we check the link I sent earlier again, https://www.cuemath.com/geometric-sum-formula/,
there's also a formula for infinite series (2nd formula)
we need that one; the sum you have here is not finite (there is no n, or "n is infinite")
true, now I see why you had that solution before
Yes. But we should also note that x =/= 0, for the fraction to make sense
ohhh now i get it
yea
even for log and ln right?
True, ln and log (I suspect log is the base 10 logarithm, here) are only defined for numbers > 0.
do you have any idea if the equations are given in a levels?
I am not sure what you mean. Could you explain?
a levels are external exams from cambridge
oh, I cannot help you with that, I am afraid. No idea 😦
oh yea thats the easy part
i just didnt know where the equation came from
alright 🙂 apparently, it was a formula

Help me sole this system of ODEs please
$$(D-1)x +(D^2+1)y = 1$$ $$(D^2-1)x + (D+1)y = 2$$
Nathan
please
Using elimination methods
$$(D-1)(D-1)x + (D-1)(D^2 + 1)y = -1$$
$$-(D^2-1)x - (D+1)y = -2$$
Cancelling:
$$(D-1)(D^2+1)y = -1$$
$$-(D+1)y = -2$$
Adding:
$$y'''+y'-y''-y-y'-y=-3$$
Simplifying:
$$y'''-y''-2y=-3$$
Auxillary:
$$m^3-m^2-2$$
Solutions:
$$\frac{1+\sqrt{7}i}{2}$$

$$\frac{1-\sqrt{7}i}{2}$$

i think i got the right answer here but i only have 1 attempt left so id like someone to check my work. 2nd pic is greens theorem that im using. the problem gives the curl of Z which is equal to whats used in the greens theorem. the problem also gives the circulation of C1, the outer circulation. so basically i need to find total_circulation - C1 = C2. total is 4 over the area of D which is 18 from the diamond - 1 from the square = 17. so 17 * 4 = 68 is the total circulation. 68 - 240 = -172. the question doesnt say its positively oriented so im not 100% sure on the sign but i think -172 should be the answer
curl of Z which is equal to what's used in greens theorem
What?nvm i see what you are saying
@robust cedar this looks perfectly correct as far as i Can tell
240 is the outer circulation, C1
and total circulation is 17*4
,calc 68-(-172)
Result:
240
Yeah jeff i think you are good
Hmm that doesnt feel right. The orientations are all right

Oh dammit nvm C2 is also counterclockwise
Yeah i think it should have been positive
if its positively oriented then the region should be to the left of the curve right?
Let's see. C1=240, and it should be C1-C2=68 from what i Can see
the picture makes me think its negative but the math makes sense to be positive
Yeah the hollowing of the inner square made me think it was negatively oeiented, but nope. Counterclockwise
can you tell which way its oriented based on the picture? if the question had explicitely said its positively oriented would the answer have been negative
Both curves are positively oriented in the picture
Counter clockwise is positive
in this article https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/CalcIII/GreensTheorem.aspx it says that "Another way to think of a positive orientation is that as we traverse the path following the positive orientation the region D must always be on the left."
if you follow the arrows of the inner square then region D is on the right which would be negative i think
Yeah. The region of the inner path is the inner square
@robust cedar Has your question been resolved?
it says D is inside the bigger square but outside the inner square, so the shaded region in the picture
@robust cedar Has your question been resolved?
ill close this but if anyone has a good explanation for how to figure out the direction feel free to dm me

Not really sure how to do the approximation for this one
I was thinking of doing some solutions for smaller n
such as 2 and 3
and a thing i noticed was that the sum of first (n-1) numbers to the power of 4 is a small proportion compared to the value of n^4 itself,
and thus n^4 itself is an approximation
however then again the proportion of sum of first (n-1) numbers to the power of 4 is gonna increase
so not really a good approximation
and it seems likely that the sum will overtake
n^4 value
this should be the recursive formula
so you will have f(n) - f(n-1) = n^4
so I'd just find a 5th degree polynomial, such that the difference between f(n) and f(n-1) is approximately n^4
if you just try n^5 - (n-1)^5, you get this:
,w expand n^5 - (n-1)^5
so here it's approximately 5n^4
Yep, indeed
so we can say that it's approximately 5n^4
how do you get it to be approximately n^4?
and then just divide by 5?
yep
that makes so much sense
so n^5 / 5 is a decent approximation
you could get finer approximations by ignoring less terms
and if you ignored none, you would get the exact formual

so i know its convergent because srqt2/2 is less than 1 but how do i find the sum?
A/1 -r? right? but whats A in this
GP formula
the constant factor, but it doesn't have one in this case
That's bassically it
the A*r^n
Yeah a is 1
also be careful
Because there's a hidden *1
the n start at 1, not 0
1
And like rbit said, don't forget it starts at 1 and not 0
You need to do another step... I'll let you figure it out
hmmm, so 1/1-sqrt(2)/2 isnt ok as a solution?
nope because it starts at 1 and not 0
You need to subtract something...
take the conjugate?? honestly im not sure haha, im probably missing something simple
if you start at 1 and not 0
That means you're not using the value of n=0
so you find n=0 and subtract it away from your GP
think of the series like this:
a+ar+ar²+ar³...arⁿ
the r exponent is the nth term
therefore a is the 0th term
but you don't want all of that, you only want ar+ar²+ar³...arⁿ
So you use the formula for this, then subtract a

lim x->a f(x)/g(x) = lim x->a f'(x)/g'(x) = lim x->a f''(x)/g''(x)........?
this is l'hôpitals rule
it is correct only if you have 0/0 or inf/inf case
otherwise you can't use it

So the derivative of y=3x is 3, because for every value of x y increases by 3
Why is the derivative of y=xx not x, since y increases by x for every value of x
nah
that is not how you justify the dervative
But it does increase by x the same way 3x increases by 3
do you know about the slope formula
Isnt this the slope formula
Because x is not a constant
I know that
three is a constant
x(x) = ax
a = x not constant
the value of y=x^2 actually increases by roughly 2x*h, where h is the amount you "step forward" on the x-axis
this approximation gets better the smaller h is
where did you get the h from
meaning f(x+h)-f(x) is approximately 2x*h for suitably small values of h
Or 2xh + h^2
it's a common variable name for this sort of thing
what does it represent in e.g. y = xx
it means that the slope at any point on the curve is twice the x value
not just the x value as you thought

The given binomial distribution is B(100, 0.6)
a) Calculate the expected value and the standard deviation.
b) Determine the number of successes within the interval [E(X) - \sigma; E(X) + \sigma]
c) Calculate the percentage of all outcomes within this interval.
The standard deviation gives the interval [55.101; 64.899] .
The number of successes is 56 and 64
Why is 55.101 rounded up to 56 , while 64.899 is rounded down to 64 ?
55 and 65 are not in the interval [mu-sigma, mu+sigma] if you don't round and you want to keep it that way when you round
@sweet oxide Has your question been resolved?
mu - sigma = 55.101 and mu+sigma = 64.899
Why is 55 rounded to 56 and 64.899 to 64 when you want to calculate c) for example
for c) youd need to do smth like P(56 <= X <= 64), when you want to calculate it or not?
The interval doesnt seem to be allowed to get bigger

SAT math can someone pls help?
How are the anglex x and y? (let's remember, any 2 angles on that image are either equal, or have the sum 180 degrees)
yes angle x and y sum up to 180\
I am afraid not. 😦
oh
They're called opposite angles.
okay
And they're equal 😦
For example, 2 angles that are next to each other sum up to 180. A way to visualize it easier is:
You can see on the image there's 4 angles bigger than 90, and 4 smaller than 90
yes
x and y were smaller or bigger than 90, in the image?
bigger
https://www.cuemath.com/geometry/parallel-lines-cut-by-transversal/
Here's an article, if you want to read more about their names etc (I suspect you might have their names in the notebook too)
When any two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, many pairs of angles are formed. The various pairs of angles that are formed on this intersection are Corresponding angles, Alternate Interior Angles, Alternate Exterior Angles and Consecutive Interior Angles.
alright thanks
Yes, so they couldn't sum up to 180, since they're both bigger than 90, right?
🙂 this would be a way to understand them easier
Okay
equal?
do they seem equal in the graphic?
no, they are not
or is one bigger than 90, and 1 smaller
Yes. so they add up to 180
It's alright. I wasn't trying to rush you, was just trying to teach you how to figure it out.
Giving a bit of intuition 🙂
You're welcome. I am glad to help 🙂
For school, it's a good idea to also remember the names of the pairs of angles, assuming the teacher gave them names.
Yes true
I haven't done geometry in a while, since right now I'm currently doing calculus

Please help someone
so far, i have manage to simplify the congruence down to 11n≡33 (mod 52)
i also realize that 33 is a multiple of 11
so n=3 is a possible choice
but the question asks for the largest three-digit integer
and that's where i'm stuck
<@&286206848099549185>
<@&286206848099549185>
You know that n has to be a three digit number, so replace n with 100a+10b+c where a,b,c are the numbers 0 through 9, then reduce further
i would do that and then guess and check large digits, thats how I got it at least
11n=52k+33 for some k
as the left side is divisible by 11, the right side has also to be divisible by 11, so k = 11m
is m an integer
if you understand my argumentation you know the answer.
what exactly is not clear? its the same "way of solution" as in the other channel - some minutes ago.

wait im confused on the horizontal translation of k units
cuz for example
when y = (x + 2)^2 the x intercept is -2
and not 2
or am i tripping and misunderstanding this?
i think im just confusing myself ;-;
If you want to find where y = 0, you want where (x + 2)^2 = 0, so where x + 2 = 0 and x = -2 
ohh ok
but like it says when h is greater than 0 it goes right
wont that make it 2?
But here h is negative, h = -2
so it goes left instead 
(x - (-2))^2 
OH EM GEE
Then here

In A level maths we do something called linear coding, which enables us to talk about means and standard deviations whenever each data point is changed by the same linear expression
What if that expression is non-linear, what can we say about the new SD and Mean
For example, if i have 10 data points, with a mean of 5 and SD of 2, what is the new mean and SD if I square each data point
you can work out the new mean
but you won't be able to work out the SD
Why not?
as in u can cook up 2 sets of 10 data points with mean 5 and SD 2 that have different SD if u square each data point
no
in general, if i give you the mean of 10 data points
and then i square those 10 data points
u wouldn't be able to work out the mean
here if u think abt what the SD^2 is
it's the mean of the squares - square of the means
so it'd be SD^2 + mean^2
if ur asking really really generally, like if i have some data points and i transform them all by some function f
I don't quite understand this
in general, knowing the S.D and the mean does not tell u anything about ur new sets of data points
like actually, SD and mean tells u very little information
Okay
i tried to find a nice picture but i can't find a picture rn
have u not come across that in A level?
I have but we've not done much on it
oh right
I just understand it to be a measure of the average variance of a data point from its mean
Oh yeah we were
yeah if u just expand brackets
stuff cancels and you end up with
mean of the squares - square of the means
that's the formula u'll use for most qs on the exam and like that's the mantra to remember it
Ohh right of course
So you're saying non-linear transformations to data points don't tell us anything about means or SDs without being given the actual data?
yh
Ohh okay cool
standard deviation and mean compresses a lot of our data into 2 values
but u have to remember that bcus we've 'compressed' all our data into just these 2 values, we've lost a lot of information
Yeah that makes sense, can i ask just one last thing
ok this was the best i could find
The lower quartile Q1 is just n/4, but if that number is an int, we add 0.5, if it is a decimal, we round up. why is that?
ngl i don't really remember all the rules for that
Oh okay no problem
i don't do stats and like i don't think it matters that much anyway
cus like in the real world, u have like way more than 10 data points lol
So it's pretty much negligble
so who cares if it's the 10000th or the 10000.5th data point

i was thinking that they could means 2 possible things
what is the center of the range
and what is the median
actually they cant even as for median
Wdym
Assume the 90 miles away person is at some random point 90 miles away. This is WLOG since all points they could be at will be the same average distance. Now, where is the average location for the 60 miles person?
since you cant take the average of a inifinite set without defining a probability measure on it
Which is why I went to iterating first
integrating you mean right?
Yeah mb 😭
its fine
anyway
integration isnt defined here
since you dont know what to integrate with respect to

This look correct to you guys?
for both tests we require ln n / n to be decreasing, so you should establish that somewhere
Does that mean i have to find the derivative
And if its negative in the numerator its decreasing
that's a way of establishing it, yes
Generally speakin at least
Ok
Well thats inconvenient
Shoulda just ratio tested that bitch
the other way would be to directly prove a_(n+1) < a_n
which one is easier depends on context
That way sounds confusing to me
Wait so
For both AST and direct comparison
I have to show that ln/n is decreasing?
i misremembered, we only have to show that for alternating series
sure
Sick
Aw man that AST thing is kind of a bummer
Seems like i did my entire hw wrong for that section
Im not gonna go back n change it but still
Lemme check my notes
So, youre right it says so in my notes
I didnt doubt u, but it was more like a uh, "maybe my professor is lazy"
Cuz for some reason, in the examples, he doesnt prove that b_n is decreasing
Or a_n, my notes calls the expression b_n
well we often consider a_n to be our original series, and a_n = (-1)^n b_n
if your professor does not establish that the series is nonincreasing in examples then it may be that you are allowed to as well. in any case it should not be too difficult to establish that it is decreasing for this particular function using calculus
@young zinc Has your question been resolved?
Yeah imma just do it from now on
Just in case
Its just a small derivative
And for an exam, i got time to crank out a quotient rule if need be
Ty for your help though cloud
Actually one more thing if ur here
For this one, i shouldve done the alternating series part where i check that the expression 1/n³ is decreasing right
And then find the lim of 1/n³ as n-> infinity
Then if it equals 0 (which it does) then it converges by AST
And that 2nd part i did was the check for absolute convergence
Right?
Cuz i think i initially fucked up there
Cuz i dont think direct comparison shows abs convergence
direct comparison doesn't show absolute convergence, but you can establish absolute convergence by computing the convergence of the absolute value
(which would involve essentially the same arguments)
i don't see where you are using the alternating series test, though
Yeah thats why i mentioned i shouldve
I didnt check that b_n was decreasing and then didnt even find the limit of 1/n³
I messed up. I just noticed lookin back at my hw
how would the AST apply? where is the alternating series?
2sin(n) or at the very least sin(n)
As n approaches infinity
Sin(n) fluctuates between 1 n -1
The 2 may change that fluctuation

In other words, C is the set of all (x, 0, z) such that x^2 + z^2 = 1 (oriented counterclockwise), so essentially a unit circle in the xz-plane
A famous parametrization of a unit circle is (sin(t), 0, cos(t)), which follows from the main trig identity
sin(t)^2 + cos(t)^2 = 1

Normally, the basis of logarithm is $10$. Logarithm with basis $e$ is written $ln$. Logarithm with basis $2$ is usually only used in computer science context, especially when discussing entropy.

I just started learning about inner products and I am a little confused by the definition of the length or norm ||v|| = sqrt(<v,v>)
Consider the weighted euclidean inner product: <u, v> = sum(ui * vi * wi)
Now in R2 consider w1 = 1 and w2 = 10, then the norm of v = (2, 1) becomes ||v|| = sqrt(<v, v>) = sqrt(2*2*1 + 1*1*10) = sqrt(14)
But my intuition tells me that the length of the vector v = (2, 1,) should be sqrt(5)? What am I not understanding?
Weighted norms are not the same lengths as you learned before
It is if all the weights are 1. But your weights of (1,10) make the "length" different
