still a bit rusty on my mvc, im trying to understand what they did on both sides to get the result right above eq (4). im guessing there is some chain rule expansion involved but then idk how they got the RHS
@heavy onyx Has your question been resolved?
Differentiate U(lambda ...,...) = lambda U(...) with respect to lambda
The right hand side is lambda * constant (with respect to lambda)
So the derivative wrt lambda is that constant
Being U(S,V,...)
And then take lambda = 1 for the left hand side
oh that makes sense
was confused with what they were differentiating wrt
thanks man!

how to integrate (t^2+1)/(t^4+1)
very painfully
ohk then how about
(cosec x +sin x)/(cosec x sec x + tan x sin^2 x)
that was original q..i simplified it by convering to sin and cos and then i took sin x = t
ugh that looks even more ass
Just divide the numerator and denominator by t^2
And then think of a u-sub to simplify it
(1+1/t^2)/(t^2+1/t^2)
t-1/t?
Yes, and can you write the denominator in terms of it?
ye (t-1/t)^2 +2
Exactly

What test / method would you go with to check and prove this converges / diverges?
comparison
split it into two parts and then use boundedness of cos
Omg its layla
splitting into two parts seems a little sus
the one and only
Are you actually the layla
the one and only
try bounding it with a p-series
yep
How s it going
it’s going okay other than no bf

A bag contains 5 white balls, 7 red balls and 3 black balls, if three balls are drawn one by one without replacement, find the probability that none is red
yeah thats easier
yeah
yes
But ans is given as 8/65🥲
hm
12/13 is way too close to 1
these are dependent events
I can understand its not possible
so you cant multiply them
not (none is red) means at least one is red
Oh so what shud i do
like the second probability being 6/14 depends on whether you took one red or not
What
also yes this should be p(none red) = 1 - p(at least 1 red)
this doesn’t make sense
why are you using the complement for this?
Oh ye

how to tell this is not a bipartite graph
other than the fact that it is a complete graph
A complete graph with more than or equal to 3 points cannot be bipartite
and it obviously cannot be partitioned into two sets of vertices s.t. there are no edges connecting vertices from same set. Because literally every pair of vertices is connected by an edge
we could strengthen this to more than 2 vertices actually
Oh yea
only complete bipartite graphs are K1 and K2
you can always just try to start partitioning the vertices
say we start at a
we put that in one of the two sets
then we need to put all neighbors of a into the other set
but then we already see that those have edges between them
so we are fucked
Also a bipartite graph with n points can have at most n^2/4 lines
i dont get this
suppose i put a in the first set
then i put all the others in the second set
what now
The second set cant have connecting lines between its points
so b and c are in the second set
but b and c have an edge between them
thats not allowed in a bipartite graph
Yea
so we are done
so vertices in the same set must not be connected with each other?
yes
and if it is complete bipartite
then every node of first set should map with every nod of second set?
yes

ok so $\frac{y}{x-z} = \frac{y+x}{z} = \frac{x}{y}$
Ann
yea
most obvious beginning seems to be to let all this = k and try to express other stuff in terms of k
Any particular known standard approach
don't know of anything else sophisticated
Lol , I tried and failed miserably
maybe some of that "componendo dividendo" bullshit but i do not see how to apply it here productively
well another way would be to attempt to put one of the letters = 1 and try to solve for the others
a bit cheaty but it works ig
Hmmm now how does that work
basically if you put z = 1 then you will be finding x and y and the ratio will be x : y : 1
this assumes z is not 0
well ig that would be easier
lol u might be on to smth
I have found some usefu reults using ur trick
I got 2:4:3
well in ma book answer is given
x/4=y/2=z/3
I got smth similar so maybe I messed up some proess

Hello, I would like to know how are people coming up with reductions from 3 SAT to Independent Set
Like the way the proof is constructed I would have never guessed it
Show the proof you're reading
Just seems like a case of people spending a long time solving open problems and refined over time.
So I believe I will get a more "clear" reduction on my exam?
Since our instructor even does not understand how they did the proof

No idea I'm not your instructor

so
we can only construct the inverse if A, B, and C are invertible matrices?
i don't think we'd have much guarantee of invertibility otherwise
ok
you might be able to get away with B not being invertible

Why is it that Dirac-delta function, which is:
[
\delta(t - t_0) = \lim_{\epsilon \to 0} \delta_{\epsilon}(t - t_0)
]
shows that
[
\int_{0}^{\infty} \delta(t - t_0), dt = 1?
]
Is that not weird?
e8
why not? each of the delta_epsilon's has that property
right, but if you graph it
you will see at t_0, it's infinity
With no thickness
Also would this not be even weirder because laplace of that function is 1, so is it not a property that lim s-> infinity F(s) = 0. Why is the laplace of this 1, because if you take the limit of 's' to infinity, it's still 1, and that contridicts that first property of functions in s-space which have been laplaced!
the dirac delta function is not actually a function in the usual sense
there are ways to make precise what it actually is but presumably those arent relevant in your course
What do you mean?
well there is no function in the usual sense which satisfies f(x)=0 everywhere except x=0 and int f(x) dx=1
That's not really a satisfying answer for my inital question
the way I interpreted your original question is that the delta function seems weird. frankly the answer is that it is weird because its not even really a function
its just something to get used to
unless you want to invest a few weeks into understanding what it actually is

Consider the $\sigma$-field $\sigma(X)\lor\mathcal{B}$ (the smallest containing $\sigma(X)\cup\mathcal{B}$), where $X$ is any random variable and $\mathcal{B}$ some $\sigma$-field. Is it true a nonnegative $\sigma(X)\lor\mathcal{B}$-measurable function can be written as $h(X)Z$ for some nonnegative $h$ and $Z$, where $Z$ is $\mathcal{B}$-measurable?\
I know if a function is $\sigma(X)$ measurable, we can write it as a function of $X$, so say $h(X)$. But I don't understand why a nonnegative $\sigma(X)\lor\mathcal{B}$-measurable function could be written as a product like that.
psie
give ur self a counterexample maybe?
Hmm, ok. Suppose we look at $\mathbf{1}_A$ where $A$ is $\sigma(X)\lor \mathcal{B}$-measurable. How is this set characterized? Can we write it in some special way, e.g. intersection of sets in $\sigma(X)$ and $\mathcal{B}$, respectively?

Due to an invention in the food industry that created a new flavor enhancer
has developed with gummy bears, we now want to test whether the proportion of children who
Gummy bears may have increased from the previous 70% (counter-hypothesis). For this purpose, 200
Children tested.
a) Specify the test size.
b) State the null and counter hypotheses and determine the
largest possible rejection range at a significance level of 2%.
Furthermore, decide and justify whether the null hypothesis is rejected,
if 151 children like the new gummy bears
can someone explain what my teacher did in b)
why c + 1
oh because its increased
but i dont understand the p(x .... part
[0, c] and [c+1, 200] covers the entire discrete sample
uhh
significance level of 2% means p<0.02 to reject the null hypothesis H_0
the x is the number of kids who liked the new gummy bears
oh so p(x>= c+1) is the general thing for alpha mistake?
-# forgot what an alpha mistake was
but in general you're looking for the lowest number C such that P(x≤c) = 0.02
the type I error
copy
actually correction
so basically your looking for the first number thats bigger or equal to c
ur good i confused myself, disregard
yes
but i dont understand
why are we looking for c
c is basically x right
we're trying to figure out if P(x≤151) is less than 0.02
wait on (b)?
State the null and counter hypotheses and determine the
largest possible rejection range at a significance level of 2%.
wait bro @sly garden where did the 1- come from
the fuck
P(x≥c+1) and P(x≤c) add to one
your professor has it wrong though because we can't reject the null H0 at 151 successes out of 200
yes, apologies. i'm still not sure what "the largest rejection range" means tho
oh yeah but
the 1 in the bracket where did that go
my guess is that it would have to be the largest range that we could reject a hypothesis at [0, c] or [c+1, 200] but i have NO idae
since $P(x \geq c+1) + P(x \leq c) = 1, 1-P(x \leq c) = P(x \geq c+1)$ by basic algebra
Mirror
but the c+1 inside the bracket yk they just dissapeared
but its alright
ill just memorize that
you're thinking of the internal inequality as a variable and you should not be
it's two cases: either x≤c OR x≥c+1
👍
right because it's wrong
how did the sign flip
the sign should flip because they subtracted one and multiplied by -1
but the probability calculations in (c) are just wrong
yes ik but
multiplied by -1
why
did he do that
OH WAIT
i see it
my bad
om gis ee it
because otherwise the equation would be $-P(x \leq c) = -0.98$
its from -p
Mirror
which while true is not helpful
sometimes m yhead doesnt work
allg
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
so
theres a function
in the calculator that lets u see the list of the kumulated chance
but im kind of confused on how to calculate this
you're looking for P(x≤151) GIVEN that p=0.7
if that number is less than 0.02, you can reject the null H0
i dont understand
so i can use a list thing
i can enter my n, 200
and my p 0,7
but then i can enter numbers for k
right, okay. what does entering 151 yield?
151 for k
yes
but heres the problem
we dont know before hand
that its 151
so how do we end up entering that
we can use 151 to check the null hypothesis
let's do that first
i get this
since P(X≤151) < 0.98, i cannot reject the null hypothesis
right
okay but
like
how do we end up with 151
it was 153 btw
the k
oh
wait
ur using the 151 from the already given
yes
then you don't have a hypothesis to test
wtf
man i wish my head would work like yours
i truly just wish i wasnt a stupid piece of sjit
knock it off, be nice, you're learning
can you talk to the prof?
so here's the situation
im gonna keep doing these exercises
its a 45 minute test about bernoulli and hypothesis
at 153 do you see how P(X≥153) is 2.49% > 2%?
but at 154 it's 1.69% < 2%?
i misspoke, and i'm sorry. you're looking for the lowest value X such that P(k<X) is less than your significance value (which is the jump from 153 to 154)
because it's the lowest number where you can't reject the null hypothesis
remember c is set up such that any value in [0, c] means we can't reject H0
at 154 we can, at 153 we can't
what about it?
but for x<= 153
the chance is 98,38%
OHH
so its the first value that comes after 98%
yep
the x=<c really confuses me
x is basically c right
thyre both just different variables for the kids who like gummy beats
this is why i don’t like that the prof used c
basically
ye basically
wait so i dont understand why the h0 is denied when significance is lower than 2%
basically: there's less than a 2% chance of a sample actually showing those results if the hypothesis were true
oh
im just overthinking it
significance is that u think that h0 is wrong even though its correct
yeah i dont understand i swear i just dont understand
yeah i overthinked it
so you still accept the h0 @sly garden
@daring bay Has your question been resolved?
@sly garden yo bro for the c)
Determine probability of type I error if the critical number (3)
c =149
i dont understand
why can you just calculate it like this now
i mean like
p(x>=150) is the significance?
you absolutely can
bro i dont understand please
what does the 0,93 even mean
it means the chance that 149 kids like gumym bears right
149 or fewer
okay so
1-0,93 is the significance
but it doesnt make sense
how
significance lkke how
what does it even mean

Alice tosses 3 coins; Bob tosses 2 coins. Alice wins if she has more heads than Bob. If it is a tie, then they flip one more coin to decide the winner. Find the probability that Alice wins. i think ive done it wrong, since im pretty sure probability alice wins should be higher than 1/2
what about if bob tosses 0 heads

for that matter what if they both toss 0 heads and Alice wins the tie break

There is a 0.5 probability that it will rain on a given day. What is the probability that during a week there will be consecutive rainy days? i did this with stars and bars method, (considering 1-P(no consecutive rainy days)) and got 94/128, i feel like this could be done with recursion, not 100% how tho
sure. let p_n denote the probability that it does not rain on any consecutive days in a timespan of n
then considering the last two days of such a timespan, we have that the condition of "no consecutive rainy days" is satisfied in exactly the following scenarios:
- day n is sunny, and the first n-1 days meet the condition
- day n is rainy, day n-1 is sunny, and the first n-2 days meet the condition
hence $p_n = \frac12p_{n-1} + \frac14p_{n-2}$
Ann
thanks makes plenty of sense, i suppose i will still need to find p_n for like 2 and 3 and work up
coldddd i got the same answer

hello why is this step wrong
where did the 28 come from?
multiplying by 2 on both side should remove the 2 on the denominator on the left
What you just did is like multiplying by 4 on the left and 2 on the right
i multiplied everything by2
Read what Mec sent
yh
when you "multiply everything by 2" that means all the terms on either side
(x+12)/2 times 14 is one term
not two different ones
so the effect is multiplying by an extra factor of two on the left-hadn side
i see
how can you tell if its the same factor or a diffrent factor?
factors are separated by addition and joined together by mutliplication
addition meaning 2 diffrent factors?
Yeah it would have worked if it was $\frac{x + 12}{2}$ + 14
multiplication meaning same factor?
doctorstrangejr
2+3 are two different terms, 2x3 is one
wow nice explnation thanks

advection-diffusion equation
i need to determine " How does angular mixing speed affect the time required to achieve a uniform concentration of chocolate powder in milk?'
not sure if i can help but is D a constant?
if yes then maybe you could solve it by separation of variables
@modest tulip Has your question been resolved?
yes

hi i just wanna know if chat is correct, chat says only the highlighted option is wrong? but i thought the ones with the linear combinations are also not a basis like specifically the second and third span
what does “wrong” mean here
i don’t think the highlighted one should be ticked
i would tick 3 and 5 only
I meant right oops
what is your reasoning for 2?
because
we have a linear combination of b2 and b3
Wait is it because
B2 is not in the set
So it works?
Okay I agree
Can yiu help me with this quesiton too pls
I swear no one helps with linear algebra now:(
:(
i need to go eat my food
@steady wolf Has your question been resolved?
a rotation matrix (that doesn't rotate by any multiple of 2pi) has no (real) eigenvalues (nothing gets stretched or squished, only rotated), so its characteristic polynomial should have no (real) roots
also, since the matrix is a map from R^2 to R^2, the characteristic polynomial must have a degree of 2
you can write (0, 1, 1)^T as e_2 + e_3 and use the linearity of T to deduce what T(e_3) is
spoiler: ||your answer is right||

Im having throuble understanding this notation. Why are elements in R^k sequences?
the elements of R^k aren't sequences
they're k-tuples
the lemma is considering a sequence of k-tuples
x^(n) is the nth element of the sequence in the same way x_n is the nth element of a sequence of real numbers (x_n)
What does it mean when it says $x_j^{(n)}$ converges then?
BOSS
it means that the jth component of the sequence x^(n) converges
which is a sequence?
the sequence looks like $(x_1^{(1)}, x_2^{(1)}, \dots, x_k^{(1)}), (x_1^{(2)}, x_2^{(2)}, \dots, x_k^{(2)}), \dots$
I made the same mistake lmao
dang it 
mhm, look at the first component for instance
ok
higher!
Ok wait so lets say
by considering each component
and the lemma says that the sequence of k-tuples converges iff each of the k component sequences converges
I define $\mathbb{R}^2 = {(x,y) \mid x,y \in \mathbb{R}}$
you have a sequence of vectors and then you consider the sequence in R given by the jth coordinate in each of those vectors in your sequence
BOSS
ok so
x would just be R
or lke any of those elements would just be R
or the sequence that constructs R
for the sequence of vectors to converge to some vector they're saying it needs to converge coordinate wise
Ok so for the notation lets say i define my sequence as X = (1,2),(3,4),(5,6)...
Then $x^{(n)}_1$ is just 1,3,5.....
here its like having a sequence of pairs (x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2), ..., (x_n, y_n) and saying that both the sequence x_1, x_2, ..., x_n and the sequence y_1, y_2, ..., y_n converge to some limits in R
BOSS
sure, then the sequences the lemma is talking about are {1, 3, 5, ...} and {2, 4, 6, ...}
ok cool
ngl that was some confusing notation lol
so each elemet is just the sequence of elements in that coordinate
they had to double up on the indices because there's a coordinate index and a sequence index
Yeah I read the note I just feel like one sentence on what it is could be better
smth like this
ty tho my tired brain appreciates the explanation
Oh and the lemma is just saying each indivisual coordinate also has to converge for the entire tuple to
that makes sense

✅ Original question: #help-39 message
back to the notation thin if ur still here @versed mica
@prime bramble
Is there anything specifying every combination exists/
what do you mean?
like for example if you look at this proof
Its just saying we replace every coordinate with its convergent subsequence
what guarantees that a combination of those exists
like in my example of X = (1,2),(3,4),(5,6).
(1,4) isnt in there
if that makes sence
so it cant be part of a subsequence
...B-W in one dimension? 
I'm not exactly sure what the concern is 
Like, for a tuple order matters right
since x^(n) is bounded, each coordinate sequence is bounded, so you can use B-W on each component
Yes, but if you look at the proof it does it individually for each sub sequence right
yeah, sure
you've got it backwards
X = (1,2),(3,4),(5,6).... wont have (1,4)
even though the coordinates do have those elements seperately
we start with (x^n), a bounded sequence in R^k
ok
we are not constructing x^(n)
the proof uses bad notation imo
they shouldn't have called the final subsequence the same thing
should've called it y^(n) or smth
im still confused lmao
ok just to make sure
for this example X = (1,2),(3,4),(5,6)....
A sub sequence would not be (1,4), (3,8)....
even through if we pick and choose for each coordinate sequence they do have those elements
no, elements of a subsequence must be elements of the sequence
(1, 4) isn't in the sequence
ok good
hmm
what is the proof doing then
Oh is it like
building on the last one
its doing x_1 first
which is why it works/
?
it's starting with a bounded sequence of vectors and then zoning in on each component sequence
then it's applying B-W to each component sequence to get a convergent component subsequence
then attaching all those subsequences together into a vector sequence
ok so its just doing them one by one so that the points exist
not speratly and putting them all together
that makes sense lmao
what do you mean one by one?
it's most certainly doing all of them at once, it's just not saying it that way
then after those remaining elements its doing x_2
whether you do them all at once or one at a time isn't really relevant here anyhow 
the point is that we can do it to all of the components
If u do them all at once
You would get combinations that dont match
why not?
ok so what I thought was going on was they took every coordinate sequence
you aren't picking a sequence of vectors
then took its convergent subsequence
you're looking at all the components at once
and replaced it
and picking a convergent subsequence of each component
ah, I think I see the confusion 
I didn't read their proof closely enough
Yeah i just read the proof wildly incorrectly lmao
Im trying to see what allows us to gaurentee enough elements for the second coordinate to converge after removing all the vectors while changing the first
the author's going component by component, first throwing out vectors in the sequence until x_1^(n) converges, then throwing out vectors in the new sequence till x_2^(n) converges, etc
in the end, the sequence of vectors converges
what I thought they did was: consider each component separately, replace each component with a convergent component subsequence, and then attach those all together
nvm i was thinking of some abstract example but that would not converge even for the toople
see this is what i thought would not work
tsk tsk, I need to work on my reading comprehension 
because then you get combinations that are not in the original sequence right
like the (1,4) example
oh huh, I just realized what you were getting at, and you're right 
that's totally my bad, I'm not sure what I was thinking
whoops, I guess I need to work on my thinking too 
thank you for correcting my silly mistake, I appreciate it c:
hopefully I didn't end up instilling some misconceptions 
no your ok this was helpful lmao
Ok wait
I do have like
something im lost by then
in the same proof, what if they are bounded but never line up
like suppose one is osolating from 0-5, and another is osilating from 6-7 (real numbers), but they reach their peaks at different times
so then when we throw away the coordinates from the first bounded sequence,
oh
monotonic
nvm
ok well
that answers it lmao

you can probably use the CLT here (by the word "approximation" I think they intend for you to use it)
The distribution in the question itself is a binomial distribution
The mean of a binomial distribution is np which is this
You should approximate the binomial distribution to a normal distribution
Which is generally valid if np > 5
So basically you need to appeoximate $X\sim B(110, 0.25)$ with a normal random variable $Y \sim N(\mu, \sigma^2)$

Is it possible to simplify this
Yes
$$\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}$$
Matcha
If I divide 9a^-4 with a^8 then I need to divide b^6 and a^8 too which is impossible
I swear I saw this exact question yesterday
All you have is multiplication
If it's easier you can just split the fraction
How
$\frac{x \cdot y}{m} = x \cdot \frac{y}{m}$
USS-Enterprise
Or rather
$\frac{x \cdot y \cdot z}{m \cdot n} = x \cdot \frac{y}{m} \cdot \frac{z}{n}$
USS-Enterprise
That's not how things work 
So it’s 9a^4 + b^4
Where did I ever type a plus?
Cause it is?

So this but with multiplication
9a^-4/a^8 * b^6/b^-2
Yes
Now use this

Yeah I know. I am a lazy individual though
Lmao fair
Yes
Answer say it’s
u dont have to divide b by a
if you have 3*4/2
do you divide both 3 and 4 by 2
or js 4?(3 if you are a psychopath)
Idk
js divide a by a and b by b
I did
so a^(-2-4)
9a^-4 : a^8
b^3+1
You don’t understand it
:?
What the heck are you talking about
minus power can be made positive
to do that
take the term in denominator
i should reverse its position from up to down
or down to up if needed
So it’a
1/9a^12?
Fucking why
Maybe because what you've done is wrong or even nonsense, you know?
Alberto Z.
$$A^{-1}=\frac{1}{A}$$
$$A=\frac{1}{A^{-1}}$$
fysch
this is also true
wherever the powers are negative switch the position from down to up (here) or up to down

I have two identical packs of cards. I take each pack and shuffle it separately, placing them both face down in the table. I then proceed to play a game of snap with myself (being a mathematician I have no friends). I compare the top card from each pile, and then compare the second card from each pile, and so on. What is the probability that I continue in this way all the way down the piles, and never find an exact match in the 52 pairs of cards? hi can someone show the probabilistic and combinatorial way of doing this?
Uh
i was thinking abt fixing one pack of cards, and then working out the the probability that the second deck perfectly doesnt match the first, but im not entirely sure abt this
so when you take the third card you discard the first card?
do it work like that?
ohh
ok I understand
like we have two decks side by side and we take the top from each and hope they match i think yh
what’s an exact match, both the designation and the sign?
yeah so 7 of hearts and 7 of hearts
