write the 6 permutations out. how many times do you count each one?
i count 213 and 132 twice
right
and 312 and 231 once
and 123 and 321 no times
ok letโs try 1234 now. but donโt write them all out
wait what? i thought 213 and 312 are the same
since the deck is inverted


i would not have thought these to be the same since we are talking about ascending orders
what did u mean by counting 213 twice
oh wait
sorry
my bad
im braindead
we move the 1 one time and the 2 one time
right
back to this, how many times will you count
1243?
how about 4123?
ding ding ding
yoooo
yes, those are the types of permutations you count twice
ones that just transpose 2 adjacent numbers
how many of those are there?
yep
so i just subtract 16?
yea
so i think the answer is either 16^2 or 16^2 + 1
there is one little detail unclear to me in the question though still
what is it?
can change, does that mean changing no cards is an option?
if so we should add one for the permutation that does nothing
no, i dont think it is
this question was given by my friend in casual language

maybe thereโs an easier explanation for why itโs 16^2
since that is a nice number
you too

can we put [x]=1 here directly
yea that works
yeah but if putting partial limits doesnt affect the overall function then you can
I don't think that would even count as putting a partial limit
what is [x]
floor fn
floor function
ok
you can use the product rule as long as it makes sense
hmm okayyy
Also, this is not even an indeterminate form
So why would it matter
hmm'

If $x_n$ is a sequence of positive numbers such that $$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{x_{n+1}}{x_n} = L > 1$$ show that $x_n$ diverges
letter x 
Why did that happen?
dunno you're the one that typed it

Fixed thx. So I was trying contradiction but I'm not sure what contradiction should I get
this is not your channel
He is ded
that will likely depend on the purported limit value of x_n
you could use X for the limit of x_n
and show that no matter what X is, that can't be the limit

I think this should be discussed in advanced math but I dont know which one. $\int_{0}^{1}\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\oint_{|z-\frac{\pi}{2}|=\frac{\pi}{2}}\frac{z\mathrm{d}z}{\sin(z)-z\cos(z)-\pi-2x\sqrt{1-x^2}+2\arccos(x)(2x^2-1)}}$

How do I work out question 4.3?
CT is a radius to point T and y=3x/4 is a tangent at point T
So they would be perpendicular to one another
There's one more bit of information you can use to form the line. Do you know any points that lie on CT?
No I only calculated the first 2 questions and they don't involve CT
use the formula for the distance of point to the line
On the memo it says CTm= -4/3
So I can use that to calculate the equation y=mx+c
But I'm not sure how they figured out the gradient(m)
I assume that if you've moved onto 4.3 you've gotten 4.2 right?
Yes
In that case, notice T is the intersection between the line and the circle
Through that, you can just calculate T, having two points you've got all you need to determine the straight line

I don't understand this problem
Idk how I solved for the cases all I remember is I need piecewise functions for problems like this?
I'm reviewing
that function is modulus or absolute value
basically how the abs value is opened based on the limit
first one is left hand limit and second one is a right hand one
for the first limit x is approaching from the left side, so (x<2) and you would get -(4-x^2)
second limit x is approaching from right side (x>2), so its just (4-x^2)
@junior jewel Has your question been resolved?
Ohh so I just flip it
Yeah cuz I got to (x<2 but didn't get the reasoning for flipping it
I don't think I still get the reason
I keep forgetting it
it's just Left and Right hand limits
also remember the property of abs value
how it opens when x>0 and x<0
What about the denominator?
I don't get how I got -4 and 4 tho cuz when I look at what you tell me I cuz think of getting 0 again
@junior jewel you can write |4-x^2| as |x^2 - 4| and then factor it and simplify
for the first limit take (-1) outside of the limit and then multiply with the final value

(question 17 only.) i don't understand how -52 dissapeared and became 72
where does -52 disappear and became 72?
in no. 17, i transposed 52, to the right side and put the other terms in the left so i can arrange them and i completed the square for both variables and the right side of the equation's result was 14, but when i checked the correct term was actually 72
you are talking about something which only you can see or only you do have. how should someone help you if you do not provide this?
provide your work pls
i think i did it even wrong this time
there is a 2 outside the bracket:
so you have 8 at the left side, but 4 on the right side.
and it should be +64 instead of -64 on the left, so again the right side changes.
but still i dont understand your question: "i don't understand how -52 dissapeared and became 72" ...

Can anyone help me with ii)
I don't understand how do the long division part when there's unknowns
you dont need to do long division
Q(x) is some unknown polynomial of degree 3, so you can write it as Q(x) = tx^3 + ux^2 + vx^x + w and then substitute that into the equation you already have
so itll look something like x^5 + ax^3 + bx^3 - 3 = (x^2 - 1)(tx^3 + ux^2 + vx + w) - x - 2?
yeah like that
yeah you can expand it and notice that in order for both sides to be equal they have to have the same coefficients for each power of x
like if i had a different equation that looked like ax^2 + bx + c = 5x^2 + 4x + 3 then you can see that a=5, b=4, and c=3, yea ?
yea I can see that
alright I expanded it but now I got unknowns on both sides โ ๏ธ
yeah but some of them you can solve for
like when you expand that you'll find that the coefficient for x^5 will be equal to t which you can equate to the coefficient on the left side of the equation
for x^5 + ax^3 + bx^3 - 3 = (x^2 - 1)(tx^3 + ux^2 + vx + w) - x - 2
can I do -3 = -x - 2
which gives x = 1
but will that help me to find a and b
not really, the entire equation has to be true regardless of the value of x
i see
x^5 = tx^5
t is 1 yeah
yes
do you see the strategy yet ?
x^5 + ax^3 + bx^3 - 3 = (x^2 - 1)(tx^3 + ux^2 + vx + w) - x - 2?
can I compare the tx^3 in the above equation with ax^3?
or i cant
you have to expand it out first
alright
cause when you expand it out there will be another term with a power of x^3
yeah which are vx^3 and -tx^3
a = v-t
but I still don't understand how I can get the value of a
sorry for having to put up with me im not very good at polynomials ๐
x^5 + ax^3 + bx^2 -3 = tx^5 + ux^4 + vx^3 + wx^2 - tx^3 - ux^2 - vx - w - x - 2
is what i got
yeah
yeah
you gotta make more equations with the other degrees of x too so you can figure out what t,u,v,w are
if you make an equation for x^5, x^4, x^3, x^2, x^1, and x^0 youll be able to solve all of them
i see
x^5 + ax^3 + bx^2 -3 = t(x^5) + u(x^4) + v-t(x^3) + w-u(x^2)- v-1(x)- w - 2
t = 1
u = 0
v-1 = 0
v = 1
v-t = a
a = 0
is that correct so far?
because the marking scheme says a = -2 and b = 1 ๐ฅฒ
i have the answer but cant figure out the working
but it's alright
thank you for trying your best hahaha
appreciate it a lot stilll
the method should be right
i guess it just went wrong somewhere, i didnt check your work too closely

what symbol can i use to denote the answer of a problem?
i've been using Ans but i want something more elegant
imo it's more elegant to not designate a response as an answer. so you just use full sentences
if you're talking about an exam or otherwise hand-written response for someone to judge, just put a box around it or something
orrr
$\therefore x=1$
Flip
with a box, or two scratch marks
//
to indicate that it's the end of your response
so that one would intuit your answer is the last line
in a paper or something, you wouldn't want to say "answer" because it sounds juvenile
you would be using the three dots symbol if you're under the impression that the preceding work is a chain of logical statements that justify your conclusion
if a question were just like, "state the definition of continuity" you wouldn't preface your definition with "therefore" because it doesn't make sense to assert that you derived or proved a definition
the scratch marks or box would go generally in the bottom right, just after or on the same line as your last line of content
you don't want to write QED because it makes you look pretentious. like, you're in a pre-algebra class and suddenly you know latin? yeah right
@thorn lily Has your question been resolved?
I would write in full sentences for exams of course
i had to mention that it was for my notes ;-;
oops lmao
I like to use an arrow to indicate the start of a solution, and scratch marks to indicate the end of a solution if needed
actually no, I don't use an arrow, I think I write "sol" to preface it
let me quess this was 3d vectors?
${\rm Sol}^{\underline{{\rm ut}}}$
Flip
How can I use scratch marks?
let me find an example
I kinda just slap them onto the end vaguely to the right of the page
this was a response I gave for an undergraduate graph theory quiz
just above it, it's a proof of something, so I prefaced with "pf" and haphazardly wrote two scratch marks to the bottom right
I'm also realizing that I don't really put scratch marks at the end of an exercise if the original question wasn't written, and I rarely ever do that, often just calling the whole exercise an example

stuck on part a, not too sure what to do, anyone have any tips?
i only have dS/dt = (salt enter rate) - (salt leave rate)
dS/dt = (0.25 lbs/min) - (salt leave rate)
not too sure how to find the salt leave rate, if it only tells me how much water leaves per minute
sir
of course
you're right, it does only tell you how much water leaves per minute
if you knew the concentration at time t
then you'd know how much salt leaves per minute
yep
so concentration at time t
that is amount of salt/amount of water at time t
amount of salt at time t is just S?
S(t)
yea
yes
ok then amount of water hmm
but it says pure water is added to keep it full
yes
assuming S(t) is amount of salt in pounds
yea, and so amount of salt at t = amount of water * concentration at t
amount of water = -1/2 gal/min
but wait its added back
but the salt isn't
you're finding the rate of salt leaving the tank
it will be 1/2 gal of fluid per minute, but its your job to find out how much salt is in that 1/2 gal
amnt salt leave / amnt water leave = concentration salt leave
amnt salt leave = amnt water leave * concentration salt leave
amnt salt leave = 1/2 gal/min leave * concentration salt leave
amnt salt leave = 1/2 gal/min leave * (amnt salt/amnt water) leave
amnt salt leave = 1/2 gal/min leave * (S lbs/5 gal) leave
amnt salt leave = 0.5 gal/min * 0.2S lbs * gal^-1 leave
amnt salt leave = 0.1S * lbs/min leave
oh wait
S is in lbs
salt tanks go brr
is this more accurate now
sure
ok yea thank you, this stuff is totally new to me lol
np
if you have diffeq doubt
send it to me
dont post here where lustful eyes watch

why dont I evaluate the ln -(lnx) and ln (lnx) in this , like i would for any other absolute value
but for this its just ln(2)
like for example if I was integrating |x^2-1| with bounds -2,0 I would have to split it apart to -(x^2-1) and x^2-1 respectively
and put their respective bounds for each

helloo
isosceles triangle ahh core
huh
yes, also the 45 degrees is outwards but that has given me an idea of where to start, Since its a triangle we can do 45-60 right?
since all triangles = 180 degrees
great
whAt
oh yea
im kinda slow ig
so two 45 degree angles and a90 degree
and we know the side of the triangle is 5 ft since 3-8 is 5
thank you for making me realize i could just make it a rectangle cuz its just a right triangle
right
alg
So just to make sure im mathing correctly since A=1/2 x base x height
yes
A=1/2(5ft)(5ft)=12.5 ft
area of a triangle is 1/2bh
then the volume would just be 12.5*10
yes
thank god
man i genuinely could not remember how to solve that and started panicking
thank u so much
i would do 17*8 = 136ft and subtract the square and triangle on the outside
npp
so then the full area of this shape would be 98.5ft i think squared yes
x10 = 985 ft so then 7368.31 gallons
x0.02 = 147.3662 dollars to fill the pool
125+280+300 = 705 cu ft?
and then 2(3x5x10)
dont we need to include the part above the triangle
woahh where's the 280 from
yes
so that's 3x5 again
oh yea
hence 2(3x5x10)
ah your right
so 560
idk im tripping i was using calculator i think i put the wrong numb in
lemme check again
idk im in freshman college
o
(7x8x10)+(2(3x5x10))+(12.5x10)
and this is ur hw or smth
is this correct?
practice exam
ye
yes so 560+300+125
985 cub ft
yup
then i need to find how many gallons per cub ft?
yea
thats what i got too
phew
thanks for your help
ik the next step is just multiple the gallon by 0.02 cents

Why does y=2z?
who's saying that? (because that isn't true)
no~x=41ยบ y=131ยบ and "ยบ" attach
because 41ยบ+90ยบ= 131ยบ so z=49ยบ
why
whywhy
ใ กใ ก
i'm Korea
you seem to be randomly bringing in 90ยฐ with no justification
y=2z only if z was
Assuming it is a right triangle, it must be 90ยบ
However, if you say it is an isosceles triangle, things may be different
you shouldn't be assuming things like that, the calculations don't make sense regardless
Only thing you should 'assume' here is y is the angle at the centre of the circle
So do you know the answer?
Then, we need to know that the correct answer is that the angle of y is the center and calculate it
according to the incribed angle theorem
am I mistaken or is the triangle on the left an isosceles triangle
are those two lines of equal length
looks equilateral
The center is called an isosceles triangle
in that case you would have z=82 given by the inscribed angle theorem given you have angles 49 and 49
If you draw a vertical line with y as the center, it can be considered a vertical isosceles triangle
it's definitely not equilateral if we consider the inscribed angle theorem because the interior angles cannot add up to 180
two of the sides are radius of the circle and the third one is marked equal to one of the radius
in the case that two sides of the triangle are of equal length the triangle should be an isosceles
yes, and equilateral is a very specific case of isosceles triangles
if these two sides are equal
for a triangle to be equilateral then z = 60 but based on information that isn't the case
No, even if the lengths are the same, if the opposite sides are the same and the angles are the same, it can be an isosceles triangle. In other words, it is ASA congruent
and what information is saying z cant be 60?
I rescind my earlier statement because inscribed angle theorem doesn't apply
nvm
i asked my sister and she said (so sorry i had to go do something)
ok
so how would we do it?
m...
People have different opinions, so let's do the math and make a decision with one majority vote
to find Z we know that 2 of the sides are equal to the radius and the third side is equal to the same length so all sides of the triangle are of equal length
apply properties of radii / special triangles
note that x,y are irrelevant when finding z
making it an equilateral triangle of all angles 60 degrees
yep

anyone can help me w (a)?
idk if i started correctly.
the last step is prob wrong
<@&286206848099549185>
First off, the information given is not sufficient to draw a unique diagram. As you can see, there are two options, red and blue, that would have the exact same measurements as the information provided, and are totally different (its not to the scale, but it should convey the point)
so the question has problem?
imo, yes
alr thanks
but, from what you have calculated, you have the area of BCD
yea i was planning to use it to solve
but i found out that i cant
:0
And if you and whoever put those answers did the calculations right, one of the answers should match with theirs
so, in step one, you have sin(CDB), so it can have an acute angle as well as an obtuse angle as the solution. You have used acute solutions, so I'll use it for further stuff. The other would ffollow the same logic, just different numbers
From that you get CD (again, 2 possible solutions here), use it to calculate AC. And, use the area of BCD to calculate the height of BCD from C (height to be used for EDC)
To get AB:
Use cosine rule on ABD, with angle D and the sides AB, 10 and 4 (angle D is known from the previous calculations)
To get EDC area:
Use cosine rule again, to get EB on angle B (known from your work), and get EC = BE - BD. Use area = 0.5*base(ED)*height(from first sentence of this message)

AM-GM apparently
@chilly jackal Has your question been resolved?
yea I think so
I would brin 1/a + 1/b + 1/c together as one fraction
Then in the numerator you might apply AM-GM
hmm lemme try
what how does that help 
i get $\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} \geq (abc)^{\frac{-1}{3}}$
rakยณen
,, \frac{bc+ac+ab}{abc} \leq \frac{\left ( \frac{b+c}{2} \right )^2 + \left ( \frac{a+c}{2} \right )^2 + \left ( \frac{a+b}{2} \right )^2}{abc}
bacc
am-gm applied on bc, ac, ab 3 times
yeah i got it
err...its still not making sense to me
after this
we get
i am also trying to figure it out currently...

i actually did subtraction
u add and subtract 2(cyclic sum ab)
then split
and ur done
can you show
from here u basically get
$$ \sum_{cyc}^{} \frac{1}{a} \leq \frac{a^2+b^2+c^2 - ab - bc - ca + 2ab + 2bc + 2ac}{2abc} $$
yea i got that
$$ \sum_{cyc}^{} \frac{2}{a} \leq \frac{a^3+b^3+c^3+ 2ab + 2bc + 2ac}{abc} $$
oh
from where does this come a^3+b^3+c^3?
its an identity
a^3 + b^3 + c^3-
OH
SHIT
NEVERMIND
AM STUPIDDDD
thanks
Wolfram Alpha doesn't understand your query!
Perhaps try rephrasing your question?
Click here to refine your query online
me either
i missed a -3abc
thats what happened
a^3+b^3+c^3-3abc = (a+b+c)(a^2+b^2+c^2-ab-bc-ca)
that was your plan
yes
you can estimate up anyway by leaving out the -3abc term since it'S negative
o send the son pls

wat
hows the inequality true?
I noticed a little nuance
in my solution
I have gotten to $$ 2 \cdot \frac{(a^3+b^3+c^3)}{abc} + \frac{1}{2} \left ( \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} \right )$$
bacc
for real this time?
AM-GM is so crazy..
bacc
I hope it works ๐

i was almost there eh
now this
I dont get it too LMAO
and this
๐ญ
I always disliked such tasks
felt too dumb
but i tried it now lol
with your help
?
Maybe we can use this $$\sqrt{x \cdot x} \leq \frac{x+x}{2} = x$$
bacc
no
use a + b + c = 1 to simplify this to
$$3abc = a^3+b^3+c^3-(a^2+b^2+c^2-ab-bc-ca)$$
also multiply both sides of the given inequality by abc to get rid of the denominator
vin100
,, m^2+n^2+p^2+3+3+3 \geq \sqrt[3]{12}\sqrt[6]{m} \cdot \sqrt[3]{12}\sqrt[6]{n} \cdot \sqrt[3]{12}\sqrt[6]{p} \Rightarrow x^2 + 3 \geq \sqrt[3]{12}\sqrt[6]{x}
got this thx
bacc
oh bruh
the given ineq shld b equiv to
bc + ca + ab โค 3abc + 2(aยณ + bยณ + cยณ)
mhm i got we need tp
a^2+b^2+c^2
<=
3(a^3+b^3+c^3)
wat?
on a โค b โค c and aยฒ โค bยฒ โค cยฒ
after multiplying a + b + c = 1 on LHS
โบ (a + b + c)(aยฒ + bยฒ + cยฒ) = โฏ โค 3aยณ + 3bยณ + 3cยณ
cancel out aยณ + bยณ + cยณ on both sides
,,\iff \sum_{\textrm{cyc}} (ab^2 + a^2b) \le 2\sum_{\textrm{cyc}} a^3

how to calculate average with negatives in php ? let's say i have -5, -2, -3, 2 and i wanna get -3 in php hmm
but i get -2 as result
,calc -5-2-3+2
Result:
-8
I kinda feel like you should get -2
when i do -5 + -2 + -3 + 2 / 4
why do you think you should get -3?
Just add and divide them like normally, but with integers
because 5 + 2 + 3 + 2 / 4 is 3
Answer is -2
okay... but that's not what you have
you have -5, -2, -3, and +2
with different signs
so average with theese numbers are -2 ?
yes
the same as an average of -2 and +2 would be 0
thats crazy i was thinking needs to be -3 ๐
i have no idea why you thought that 
ok i'm brainless thx
And then divide them by four like normal. PS you're actually smarter than most.
Then divide them by 100
does it matter which i count as first ?
should i count from highest number to lowest ?
or it does not matter how i count them together ?
i have lot of negatives and positives
mixed
Just add all the numbers then divide them by 100
A positive and a negative added to each other equals less
Just add them like normally
ok
1 ?
Correct
ok thx bro

sorry for tagging but the above AM-GM is wrong somewhere in the middle. Consider the equality case when a = b = c = 1/3
sum of reciprocals is 9
in the target/given inequality, a = b = c gives equality
but in your 1st paragraph and at the end of the second paragraph, it's clear that you're not getting equality
at which step?
,w 1/(1/3)+1/(1/3)+1/(1/3) <= 3+2*((1/3)^3+(1/3)^3+(1/3)^3)/(1/31/31/3)
i looked at it for a while and found that the 2nd '=' is wrong
can you circle it?
when an inequality has to be proved, a complete solution should contains the equality case
wdym?
A line saying "equality holds if and only if ..."
it's an inequality here
your solution is based on AM-GM, so the equality case should be a = b = c
That's part of a complete solution
they can be arbitrary
which means both cases are involved
Also you didnt show me where a=b=c=1/3 gives a wrong solution
For your question, that's the end of the 1st paragraph
be a bit more specific
Try substituting the values for the equality case
it's not equal and greater
It's already very specific
it's equal or greater
bacc
less or equal or both
Try input the values into the end of your 1st paragraph
You are reading this step wrong
Normal MO inequalities problem's solution shld contain a line "equality holds iff ..."
,, \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} +\frac{1}{c} \leq \frac{(a^3+b^3+c^3)}{abc} + \frac{1}{2} \left ( \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} + \frac{1}{c} \right )
bacc
substitute the equality case into this
And you'll see that the LHS gives 9
RHS gives 3 + 9/2 = 7.5
,w 1/(1/3) + 1/(1/3) + 1/(1/3) <= ((1/(1/3))^3+(1/(1/3))^3+(1/(1/3))^3)/((1/3)(1/3)(1/3)) + 1/2(1/(1/3) + 1/(1/3) + 1/(1/3))
I see I forgot the 4
This explains (perhaps) why there's a gap "+3" in the last paragraph
That's a common practice in MO inequalities
It's also a way for error detection
Sometimes even though not explicitly rewritten, the equal case should be very clear (from the classic inequality applied in the solution)
Please feel free to ask if you've any questions.
Sorry for tagging. You may see the above discussion (around the equality case) to see what's wrong
