the function changed
this is the double derivative
Just wanted it verified
the exponent here is xe^y
and here it's ye^x
which one is it?

coin w is tossed once and coin X is tossed twice. Assume both coins are fair the what is the probability that coin W returns heads and coin x returns tails twice
1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8
but this is the probability of one arrangement, no?
why don't we multiplying it by 3C2 = 3?
dumb question but like that pivots me to asking why we can't treat this as a binomial problem?
they're 3 independent events
hmm could you elaborate?
so okay let me get this straight
u can't merge 3 independent events into 1
and well a binomial only works on one single event at a time?
the probability values involved could be the exact same, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can generalize that entire system into one
because i think the way the question was phrased, coin w flip and coin X flip are two independent systems
maybe it can be written as P(w) & P(X)
by what logic are u saying *3c2?
so by product rule (if AND, multiply probabilities, if OR, add probabilities)
so (1/2) * (1/2*1/2) = (1/2) x (1/4)
yes the value is the exact same if you treated it as just flipping a coin three times, but if you look at it aside from the number only aspect
for example if you made coin X so that it's slightly more likely to return heads, then you can't treat the two systems as one anymore
@quick star Has your question been resolved?
okay but why?
i know how to get the right answer
it would just be 1/2 (1/4)
yes
but tbh i never really could justify why u shouldn't multiply by the number of arrangements
someone asked me this
idk the answer though lol
ohh
like, in general?
i mean mathematically that is true because of the general counting principle
but in real life of course there aren't perfectly fair coins or a 100% sure predictable outcome
when the coins are distinct from each other like this, this is the only arrangement that gives you a good outcome (any other arrangement of one head and two tails would mean coin W returned tails, which wasn’t what we wanted. so multiplying by 3 leaves us with two cases that we counted that have coin W on tails)
the probability of just getting one head out of three is actually 3/8 like you’d suspect.
i'm confused 😭
maybe i'm being dumb
like what’s the purpose of multiplying by the combinations of H/T in the binomial model?
it’s because we have not counted the other arrangements of coins, and those arrangements are ones that give us an outcome that we’re asking about
but in this case, there are no other arrangements of H/T that have one head in it that give us the outcome “head on coin W and tails on the other two”
hmm right but like how do we know that right off the bat?
(W_H)(X_T)(X_T)
we could just reason about it binomial style, like we ask if there are any other arrangements that work, and in trying to do so, we realize that we must first have exactly one head, and also that head must go on coin W, so we’re done.
mmmmm okay so
exactly one head and it's in the first position
H _ _
we don’t, if we require that one head and one tail be flipped among the X coins then we would multiply by 2
just like you’d expect
oh yeah it's
exactly one head: (1/2) (1/2)^2
but since H is fixed and TT has only one arrangement
then it's just 1 * 1/8 = 1/8
one could also think of it like: exactly one head gives us 3/8 from the binomial model and then correcting for counting arrangements that don’t work gives us (3/8)/3
if you don’t like that then dwai
wait where did you get the 3/8 again
😭
it comes from the following line of reasoning:
let’s say i have three coins, and i flip them and i get HTT. that had a 1/8 chance of occurring. but i also could have gotten THT and TTH and would have been just as happy to say i got exactly one head. since these are all disjoint outcomes all with probability 1/8, then the probability of flipping heads is 3/8
oh lol
the 3C1 in the binomial thing yeah
whoops i completely forgot about that
so in the new scenario you don’t have the last bit of reasoning because i would not be happy with the outcome THT
for example
i might have been wrong about this...
yeah so the answer to my main main question was actually just:
it can be treated as a binomial where you roll for exactly 1 head or exactly 2 tails
but then since the positions are fixed
you don't deal with the combinations/permutations bla bla
wow okay
the positions are not fixed among the last two coins
but that’s fine because 2C0 is 1
yeah but TT and TT are the same so i guess it all checks out
thanks!!
wait @solid pier
my question doesn't suggest that coin W is tossed first
and then coin X
or the other way around
so wouldn't 😭 it actually be 3/8
i could flip X first then W then X again
or X twice then W
or W first then X twice
so, this is one nuance where you have to have a model for what you’re doing. one way is to flip them in order, the other is to just pretend you have three coins and they’re labeled 1-3 and then not care about the labels in the last two once you flip them. but HTT refers to coin W getting heads, coin X1 getting tails, and coin X2 getting tails.
but isn't it the question's responsibility to establish the model?
😭
so would you say the question is ambiguous?
cuz like from our point of view, we're suggesting that the probability of W returning head and X returning tail twice depends on the order these coins are tossed
which is maybe not an unfounded assumption?
btw really sorry for the delay
no because they’re all the same
we aren’t doing that
we’re assigning outcomes supposing that we toss them in some specific order. if we choose a different order we would shift the outcomes and events to reflect it in a way
like if we flipped the W coin last then the new “good” outcome is TTH
but like that’s only a change in perspective and doesn’t affect the numbers
and even if you had a model where you had three coins and flipped them all at the same time
hmmm right
i think this whole thing is messing with my brain a bit 😭
and even better it doesn’t affect the reasoning (up to some permutation of the symbols on the page)
it feels like philosophy at this point 😭
some of this is philosophy, some people really despised probability back in the day
omgg
loll yeah i think i can see why
but actually it has solid foundations now and when you start talking about how to model something like coin tosses you now have unobjectionable ways to talk about it
like if you don’t want to do any philosophy
but then you’d talk about sigma-algebras and probability spaces in the abstract and then you’d translate it to that language
but it’s easier in this case just to use our words
wait so if i'm flipping three different coins then philosophically getting tails on the first coin (the rest are tails) is the same as getting coins on the second coin (the rest are tails)
ughhh
tbh this doesn't make sense to me because like let's give some values to flipping heads and tails:
heads = 2 points and tails = 1 point
in this case, we'd consider 2 + 1 + 2 different from 1 + 2 + 2, no? Like this is a different case, no?
they are different, but requiring one of them to occur is indistinguishable from requiring the other to occur in some sense
it’s very feels-based for when one is different from the other
sort of like saying “speed is relative”
😭
like no you’re still gonna get a speeding ticket if you go 70mph in a residential zone
true true but hmm okay
with this you'd eliminate the philosophical bit?
uhhh i’m not super sure. when you try to apply math to real-world scenarios there’s always going to be some mental gymnastics that you have to do
but doing probability nowadays it’s common to use this language, and when you have something in that language of probability spaces then it’s easier to do math, because you don’t have a lot of ambiguous terms
or like, not even that
but like you don’t have to use your physical intuition of “i’m flipping coins, but wait how am i doing that? and does the answer to this question matter?”
hmmmmmm
so i'm just supposed to intuitively know when the
permutation doesn't matter and when it does, i guess?
that's what i'm gathering from this
i'm sorry if i'm bothering you with this philsoophical argument though 😭
i genuinely didn't know there was that aspect to it
it doesn’t bother me, i’m a bit distracted with other things atm though so i’m gonna be slow to respond
in a sense yeah
you’ll build this skill over time
one might turn to a combinatorics book
instead of a probability one
because that’s actually the problem, not the actual probability that comes after the combinatorics
but i don’t really know any good references unfortunately
i just use my gears that i polished over a long time :P
@quick star Has your question been resolved?
ohhh no worries
okay makes sense 😭 this is a bit mind bending
but i get the gist
thank you for the help
yeah i think the combinatorics part is fine
it's just the philosophy part
but okay i think i understand it now
the philosophy is part of the combinatorics of flipping coins
i would argue
i enjoy answering your questions
they are very insightful.
aww thank you 😭
right okay
thanks again

im confused for all parts of this question. I had a look at the mark scheme but i dont understand where the answers value come from?
so what does f'(x) < 0 mean to you as a statement?
that the solutions need to be less than 0
what are the "solutions" though
the roots
do u know what a derivitive is
nope, havent been taught that yet
erm
it's not the roots of the function f; it is the derivative of it
that's what f'(x) means
well thats a derivitive like aero said
oh- so basically i cant do this question?
no
well
it's not like f'(x) < 0 is particularly crazy of a statement
in other words, it's saying where is the function decreasing?
here?
derivitive is just the rate of change
icl my initial interpretation of this question was that i would need to see where the x values/roots are below the x axis which is the type of questions ive been used to seeing but in this case, only one part of the function is below the x axis so i was confused
you're confusing f(x) < 0 with f'(x) < 0 which is why
ahh i seee I'll keep that in mind for when im taught it
exactly, ive never seen f'(x) used in any of the questions ive been given but yea thanks anyways!

I'm trying to use conservation of energy to solve this problem. would that work? and also how would I find the moment of inertia?
How would you conserve energy?
the angular accelereation is askedd initially, no w will be developed
would torque work?
yep!
And since these are point objects, their moment of intertia will just be md^2

how is x = 70?
FE and CD are parallel
angles ECD and EDC are equals
since triangle cde is an isoceles, the two angles missing in triangle cde have to be the same
( 180 - 40 ) / 2
so 40, 40, and 100?
40 70 70
since cd and fe are parallel as Precalc hater said, therefore angles ecd, edc, and therefore fec are equal like sapoperro said

I'm trying to use the chain rule to differentiate this ( This chapter is on multivar calc)
I'm confused, can't I just sub in what x and y are
If not it would be something like
$2x \frac{dx}{dt} + 2y \frac{dy}{dt} + y \frac{dx}{dt} + x \frac{dy}{dt}$

isnt this set empty?
from my understanding, the union of integers with a interval thats only 1 wide, would only at most net 2 integers
or is it saying that the resulting integer from this union needs to = 3 itself
this might just be me failing to understand this notation
I think it's saying the cardinality of the set is 3
so what i said first?
meaning it would be an empty set?
i said union but i meant intersection
mb
Well yes, but can you prove it
i can attempt, I just wanted to confirm im understanding this notation even
proving its an empty set

just wanted to know a convention but are all prisms assumed "right" unless stated otherwise?
if i say triangular prism then it's not assumed to have rectangular faces?
Like here i googled "surface area of triangular prism" and it shows assumes right thus giving square faces
i think my question is how we know that the edges connecting bases are perpendicular to the bases
<@&286206848099549185>
I wouldn't assume a right triangle from "triangular prism"
hmm okay but then how can you infer that the above faces are rectangular? 😭
That comes from the definition of prism itself
In this image
the definition of prism allows for faces to be parallelograms
the right makes it known that the parallelogram is a rectangle
All have rectangular sides
isn't this the defintiion?
and this too
I believe this is called an oblique prism
but in this book, if you look at the part of "right prism"
and then now see this part
(btw that's a super uncommon name, I don't think you'll be expected to memorize it)
"infer from the problem that the prism is indeed a right prism"
and the book is in accordance to wikipedia
wiki says the same thing
correct. Most of the time, when you read "prism", a right prism is assumed
They wrote "infer" here, which is basically "assume"
infer means logically conclude, no?
sorry i'm not trying to troll 😭
i'm genuinely confused
it sounds like i'm trolling
close
infer = deduce without explicit or complete information
so here's another question (i don't need help with solving it)
we assume all the faces are rectangular?
the book said they will leave out the "right" part bc they want you to infer it
I would, yes.
correct
So you infer that it would be a right rectangular prism
which means there's no justification for this other than just assuming?
justification for what?
why all the faces must be rectangles
yeah okay fair enough
but this book makes it seem like
😭 they've "solved" something
bc the answer starts with "all of the faces are rectangles"
I believe it says this as a start for the remainder of the solution
like "we are going to use the fact that <blah blah blah>"
hmm okay i guess
when will i know when it's not right?
From what your book is telling me, if you read only "prism", then assume right prism. Therefore, if it is not a right prism, you will be told explicitly.
hmmm 😭 okay i can live with this i guess
I understand and respect your preference to have certain definitions be very explicit, and to be as wrote and comprehensive as possible. However, relying on inference to reduce reading is a handy tool, and something mathematicians like to do.
yeah fair enough but like 😭 idk to me it feels a bit like guessing
because we didn't even need the pictorial
we didn't even need the question
to make this "inference"
It is some mindfulness required on your end.
Gotta not let yourself forget it, which can be easy to do at times
okay fair enough, thanks

can someone tell me what the real name of the "golden cycle" of a trig function is called, everywhere i search i cant find it and im struggling to find a video to walk me through it
is it a fundamental period?
and how would i be able to make it for a graph like y=2csc(4x-pi)-5
@lone fox Has your question been resolved?
@lone fox Has your question been resolved?
U mean "period" of a function?
i dont think its just the regular period of it
ive never heard of that term, i dont think its in standard usage
use of the word cycle does make me think its related to the period
it says to graph the full golden cycle of the trig function
this is what i've done so far
but im just not sure what to do from here
or is that it
idk if i graphed this even right since hte period is 2pi but idk what to do

I need to understand Radius of Convergence for my Exam; support requested Calculus 2

series. Combine, integrate, and differentiate power series"
@hollow drum Has your question been resolved?
@hollow drum Has your question been resolved?
okay so do you understand the radius of convergence?
it is the point at which the taylor series approximation stops equaling the actual function
so specifically, here we are given the taylor series approximation
locally, this is modeling some smooth function
however, this summation isn't equivalent to that function after x is big enough
this will happen when the terms start to diverge
and go to infinity
so when will $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^n\frac{x^n}{n^25^n}$ converge?
Arnavutköy
if $|x|$ is less than or equal to $|5|$, then all of the terms are $\le\frac{1}{n^2}$ right?

How to do this?
u can start by finding what only one square area is equal to
yeah
what's that?
Idk
my guess is that it's looking for the area of the 3x3 grid based on only the 2x2 grid's area
that equals 5 x 4
the "pattern" could be anything
how do we know it's area?
true
Yes
but
its impossible to know without context :')
exactly
exactly
if there is nothing else written there, this question is completely meaningless
am just guessing that if its solvable one square is equaled to 1.25
or maybe one edge = 5/12, who knows 
sooo the answer is 1.25 x 9
yeah
or maybe the 5 is just number of squares + 1
is there any other context for this perhaps ? 
noo i dont think soo
noo.
she said no
ohh it says on the question / instruction ?
ohhh
then what
wait
if theres no instructions then its 9 x 1.25
and 9 x 1.25=11.25
sooo thats the answer am guessing
does any one agree?
i got to go byeee
@quasi moon Has your question been resolved?
I don't know if this has been stated before but couldn't it also be the points where 2 lines intersect?
Discounting the corners
i'm a bit late
but my guess is the amount of total squares in the figure
like there are 4 1x1 squares in the first figure and 1 2x2 square
so in the second figure it would be 9 1x1 squares + 4 2x2 squares + 1 3x3 square = 14 total squares

Hi
Hello! I have this integral and I need to rewrite it to make it look like the other image. I really don't know where to start, except that I already know that the derivative of sin(x) is cos(x).... Thanks.
Easy
Not for me xdd
(also assumedly you/"they" meant f'(g(x)) * g'(x) for that second picture?)
Well, that wouldn't be very helpful (as you should know that f'(g(x)) * g'(x) is the derivative of f(g(x)), which is what you want to recognise to do the integral)
Unless you wanna introduce another letter for the antiderivative of f, but then, like, why 
I don't know my friend, that's bc i'm asking : ) They only give me these hints
And I think that I must not introduce another extra letter
Try substituting cos(3x), see what happens, and then try sin(3x) and see what happens.
I don't think I understand, should I try a change of variable with those two functions?
Yes.
@broken quarry Has your question been resolved?

Finally f(x)= 1/x g(x)=sin(3x) g'(x)=3cos(3x). I had doubts with f(x)=1/x. But I see that works.
Thanks for your help @merry carbon @leaden wadi

in the equation V = kQ/r
where V is voltage
If we get a negative answer as V, what does that mean?
and what is the differnece compared to when we get a positive answer
voltage can be either positive or negative
generally positive charges will move from areas of positive voltage toward areas of negative voltage, and negative charges will do the opposite
and generally positive charge creates positive voltage, whereas negative charge creates negative voltage
@river lodge Has your question been resolved?
but when u get an answer for V using the equation V = kQ/r, if V is negative, what does that indicate?
that would indicate Q is negative
my teacher said it has to do with if the charges are opposite, in that case V would be negative as the field does work, but if they are two similar charges then V would be positive
Is that true?
V only depends on the source charge
so if the source is negative, then u would get negative V but if source is positive you would get +V?
yes
the potential energy U on a charge q is given by U = qV, and U is positive when they have the same charge and negative when they have opposite charge
which might be where you're getting it from
but what does that negative actually indicate in terms potential difference
like what does a negative value as the potential difference indicate
generally we consider that the voltage is 0 infinitely far away, so a positive voltage will be higher than that and a negative voltage will be lower than that
and generally charges will go to wherever their potential energy will be lowest
so the overall effect is that opposite charges attract and like charges repel, as you already know
right, i understand that, but im trying to understand what the signifcance of a - vs + is for V, like for example an object's displacement can either be negative or positive and that indicates whether the object is moving in the positive direction or negative direction. In the case for potential difference, is there any signficance like this?
the sign of the electric potential/voltage reflects the sign of the charge that created it
for the displacement case, the sign indicates a direction, because displacement is a vector quantity. but voltage is a scalar quantity, so it doesn't have a direction in the same sense

How can we find the critical points and ashmptote
Is it asking for vertex?
Critical points are where the derivative is equal to 0 or undefined
What is a derivative
So y is at -3
I got some like this
now how do we find the critical points @plush moss
Well critical points in graphically is where the function has a horizontal or vertical tangent
What’s a tangent
Actually nevermind I think I'm not going to be able to teach this to you
have you not been taught derivatives?
no my teacher never mentioed it
Anyway I don't think this function has any critical points
Unless their school defines critical points differently
based on the function, I'd guess they are looking for the y and x intercepts
so you want to find the points where the function intersects the y axis and the x axis
Bruh
?
neither, but they said they have to plug in values and the extreme points are both infinity
so I can't imagine it's anything else
I guess you're right
i think critical points might be like the "important" or easy points
like in a quadratic its 0,0 1,1 2,4
then u can just put the transofmraotions after to graph it
definitely not

Three consecutive prime numbers, each less than $100$, have a sum that is a multiple of $5$. What is the greatest possible sum?
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
there's a conjecture that says except for 2 and 3 all primes are of the type 6k±1
well find all possible sums of these three primes and then find a k such that it is divisible ny 5
a,b,c is our three consecutive primes
primes except 2,3, can be found from 6k ± 1
with k a positive integer
(a+b+c) mod 5 = 0
but is a lot of possibilities still? correct?
how, exactly?
consider a<b<c
let b=6k-1, this fixes a must be 6(k-1)+1 and c must be 6k+1
similar for b=6k+1
note that you must check individually that for a certain k a,b,c are primes since all primes are of the form 6k±1 but the vice versa is not true
why a is 6(k-1)+1
because we want the greatest sum possible or?
no
consider b=6k+1=37
what would be the greatest number less than 37 of the form 6k±1
6(5)+1 = 31
or wait, I think this won't work so good
since for a=6(4)-1=23 b would be 6(4)+1=25
I don't know if there is a analytical solution to this
anyways the first thing that struck my mind was just summing group of primes from the right end
,calc 6*17+1
Result:
103
and start summing them from the rught end
I checked it , won't take so long
also you only need to sum their units place
if the sum of units place ends in 0 or 5 the sum is divisible by 5
may be tagged as a rule but it's just common sense
wait
not like that
you left a better sum
83+89+97
79+89+97
79+83+97
79+83+89
and so on
but you said sum of the units place ends in 0 or 5
unit is the right most digit right?
this
is not consecutive primes
79 + 89 + 97 is not a sum of three consecutive prime numbers
or maybe I am tripping hard
what does consecutive even mean
?????????
,w define consecutive
ok good im not crazy I think
3 + 9 + 3 = 15
(73 + 79 + 83) mod 5 = 0?
,calc 73 + 79 + 83
Result:
235

Can someone help me with this
I don’t remember how to do step functions
Well let's just say someone asked you to calculate the cost of 2 days
How would you do it
I would think that it's just 38(2)+15 but it's a fixed rate for 1 day. So like if I rent it for 2 days and a half it's not gonna be 38(2.5)
Well that's a good concern I guess
Technically if x is only ever an integer 38x+15 works too
answer key is C(x)=-38⌊-x⌋+15
is that because - goes down, so ⌊-2⌋=-3
it rounds to the nearest day
and then the -38 cancels out that negative
Yea i guess so

So What I would do is :
\
$2x+y^2 = 2z \pdv{z}{x} \implies \pdv{z}{x} =\frac{1}{2z} (2x+y^2)$
\
$x^2+2y = 2z \pdv{z}{y} \implies \pdv{z}{y} = \frac{1}{2z}(x^2+2y)$

or do I consider an arbitrary tangent plane and work with that
Yes
$(z-z_0)=. \pdv{z}{x} \cdot (x-x_0) + \pdv{z}{y} \cdot (y-y_0)$
$(z-z_0)=. \pdv{z}{x} \cdot (x-x_0) + \pdv{z}{y} \cdot (y-y_0)$
Use the symmetry to reduce calculations
Wlog you can assume x=y i.e you only need to check tangent planes of pts on y=x
how can I assume what WLOG
Because of the symmetry
so $\pdv{z}{x} = \frac{1}{2z} (2x+x^2)$
ƒ( wai ina teacup)= I don't know
and $\pdv{y}{z} = \frac{1}{2z} (x^2+2x)$
ƒ( wai ina teacup)= I don't know
this is wrong
some terms disappear in the partial differentials
the x^2 and y^2
$\pdv{z}{x} = \frac{x}{z}$; $\pdv{z}{y} =\frac{y}{z}$
ƒ( wai ina teacup)= I don't know
well, then it's pretty straightfoward
$\frac{x_0^2+y_0^2}{z_0} =\frac{-z_0^2}{z_0} = -z_0$

how do I do this?
what
Here's the question
So I had to make a graph and graph it on desmos
It's about a car model
From the years 2015-2024
And how the prices changed over time
I used a trigonometric function
And got this
y=13793.8241sin(0.585195(x-1.28605))+51317.0035
ok..
Now I need to find the price of the car in 2030
How do I do that?
That's the graph
imma write it
Ok
yeah
To estimate the price of the car in 2030 using your equation:
[
y = 13793.8241 \sin(0.585195(x - 1.28605)) + 51317.0035
]
we need to calculate (x), the years since 2015:
[
x = 2030 - 2015 = 15
]
Now substitute (x = 15) into the equation:
[
y = 13793.8241 \sin(0.585195(15 - 1.28605)) + 51317.0035
]
Step-by-Step Calculation:
-
Calculate (x - d):
[
15 - 1.28605 = 13.71395
] -
Multiply by (k = 0.585195):
[
0.585195 \times 13.71395 \approx 8.025
] -
Find (\sin(8.025)):
[
\sin(8.025) \approx 0.989
] -
Multiply by (a = 13793.8241):
[
13793.8241 \times 0.989 \approx 13641.96
] -
Add (c = 51317.0035):
[
13641.96 + 51317.0035 = 64958.96
]
Final Answer:
The estimated price of the car in 2030 is approximately $64,959.
This estimate assumes the trigonometric model is a reasonable approximation for the data. If the model doesn't fit well, this value might not be accurate.
