See if you can reach the desired result from here
Sorry my apologies you need to put the functions in absolute values
Since the young inequality only applies to non negative real numbers

why do we use inf, and sup, and not min and max for the general definition of the upper and lower riemann sum?
min and max might not exist

Not sure what I did wrong here.
but its telling me that is not right
I did P = 1000
r = 6%
n = 2 x 1 = 2 (per year)
(R, n) = 0.06 / 2 = 0.03
1600 = 1000 (1+0.3)^2t
divided both sides by 1000
then 2 LN (1+0.03)
got 9.67
anyone?

I had a question about proving greedy algorithms using an exchange proof
The problem that i'm working on is "Now let each job consist of two durations. A
job $i$ must be preprocessed for $p_i$ time on a supercomputer, and then finished for $f_i$ time on a
standard PC. There are enough PCs available to run all jobs at the same time, but there is only one
supercomputer (which can only run a single job at a time). The completion time of a schedule is
defined as the earliest time when all jobs are done running on both the supercomputer and the PCs."
The heuristic that I chose is decreasing finishing time (which i think is correct), but i'm unsure of how to go about actually proving that it's optimal
Mt_Vasuveus
Let $O = {i_1 \dots i_k}$ be the optimal schedule and $A = {j_1 \dots j_k}$ be the schedule found by the algorithm
Also let $g(S)$ be the total time it takes to run a given schedule $S$ \
Mt_Vasuveus
Would it be easier to prove this using a stay's ahead argument? I initially avoided it because isn't it possible that a subset of $A$ might be slower than a subset of $O$?
Mt_Vasuveus
<@&286206848099549185> Any ideas on how to tackle this?
@indigo summit Has your question been resolved?
I've realized that the finishing time for a subset of jobs would be $f_k + \sum_{i=1}^k p_i$

How would I found the range?
Find*
wdym?
How would I find the range of this rational function
whats the horiontal asympote
2/-8=-1/4
o wait
2/-8=-1/4
wrong proble
?
This is your question no?
Yes yes
Could you explain to me what you mean by range, english is not my first language? But they are asking for interception and asymptotes
so you need to study when it intercepts the x-axis, and explore the asymptotes no?
like domain in range
and range
The range of y values in the function
Why do you need that?
It asks
okay
I assume I will have to know it later on
I mean typically you just study the domain and range from the answers of interception and asymptotes
So first you'd have to identify interception, and all the asymptotes
And then you look at how the graph behaves
Have you searched for slanted asymptotes?
No
You find slanted asymptotes by dividing the numerator by the denominator
They don't necessarily exist, so if you know your questions are without slanted asymptotes, you don't need to do this
Secondly, you can also find other asymptotes at ''problem points'', points where the function is not determined
which in this case would be when the denominator is 0
Would the slanted asymptope be 3?
oh nvm you mean the whole numerator and denom
Yes
oh
Thats the horizontal asymptote
ohh
like this?
Yes
should I just
divide by x-3
and then divide that by x+1
or should I just divide by the polynomial
I would just divide by the whole polynomial
since you already have x^2 on the bottom
Unfortunately no, this will not cancel out
Your solution will be
but
I just remembered something
which is good for you to know
Which I didn't think about
But you won't have a slanted asymptote in this question
You will only have slanted asymptotes, when the degree of the numerator is exactly one more than the degree of the denominator
in this case, the degree is 2 for both
which means no slanted asymptote
My bad
its alr
To find the range, you just take the limit to the point of the aymptotes
And to find the domain, you just look at when is this function defined
Yes, so now you look, how does this function behave, when it approaches 3
I assumed
goes down
It should go to infinity
I thoguht so too
I thoguht
it would be (-infinity,infinity)
Exactly
Since you look at how it behaves approaching from 3+ or 3-
But it says its this
What was the horizontal asymptote?
3
So this is the correct answer?
Yes but how
Or is the homework website just dumb
which could be true
idk either
It says the same thing when I put it into an algebra calculator
I think I know what they're doing
one moment
I mean my issue is that I'm not getting the right answer when I'm using an algebra calculator
The idea is that you check how the graph behaves when you approach the asymptotes
and when you approach infinity or minus infinity
Plotting it, it does make sense
Because if you look at it, when it approaches infinity or minus infinity
Could you help me on an actual slant asymptote question?
Its fine if you only have time for 1 question
Sure
so on the top of the chair, you multiply by x
?
then -3(x^2?)
That becomes x^2-3x
wait
Yea
Rough long division
But your final answer is that
x+5+15/(x-3)
Is your slanted asymptote
you mean 15/ (x-3)
and then divide again
kk
it wants to me to write it as an equation
y = kx+m?
Yea
hmm, it saying wrong
we can rewrite it then
Does the quizz site say what it complains about?
type in x + 5
it sayed "write it as an equation
try this
do we not include the last part in the slant asymptote?
You can ignore it yes
How would I know which one it is?
besides the vert asymptote
how would I know the diff
between 1 and 4
ohh
The only one that does that, is the one to the right
Yes of course, it's a normal straight line
y = x + 5
the y intercept is at 5
When you calculate for slanted asymptote, now I forgot about this since I haven't done this in like 4 years. But you ignore the remainder of the equation because it becomes irrelevant when you approach infinity
oh yeah my teacher told me that now that I remember
so when we did long division and got x + 5 + (15/x-3)
you can ignore the remainder
So we got the line y = x + 5, and yea you get now how to analyse which graph it is
Exactly, because it intercepts at 5
Where
Yes
the difference is one is negative and one isnt
So 1?
No problem, hope I didn't make it complicated
Nah, very helpful
Good luck!

How could I solve A and C?
I found out A is 3 with chat GPT but it doesnt explain it properly
and I have no idea how to get C
they tell you to graph it
so presumably thats the way you find it
is there any way
to find it otherwise
you can take the derivative
but this is precalc
so maybe you don't know that yet?
its a different thing
Why? Why not 1 point? That's so weird
yecidk
im trying to think of how one would reason that this is the maximum without using calculus
you could use calculus reasoning
without actually take the derivative or anything
but idk how comprehensible that will be
@scenic olive the idea is like this
when the denominator is big, the fraction is small
and when the denominator is small, the fraction is big
all other things held the same
make sense so far?
👀
yes
alright
also, when x is small, then x^2 is really small
and if x is big, then x^2 is really big
we can draw a line between "small" and "big" here
it happens around x=1
because a number times a number thats less than 1 shrinks
but if you multiply something by a number bigger than 1, it grows
good to there?
Yes
so this tells us that a good place to look for our maximum is around t=1
because around here, t^2+1 will stop being small, and will start getting big
and, it will get bigger faster than 6t does
,w plot x^2 and x from x=0 to x=2
you can see this happen in a graph, too, x^2 starts out smaller, but eventually it catches up
and since the denominator starts getting bigger than the numerator around t=1, this is where hte function stops growing, and starts shrinking
hopefully that reasoning isnt too crazy
actually 0 is the horizontal asymptote
so im not sure how you mean
it has special names but they arent asymptote
yea
and since t^2+1 never stops growing faster than 6t, the function never stops going down
So we know that 1 is the highest it goes for t until C goes down
We know that at T=1
C is the highest
yea, you maybe stare at the fraction, and you reason that a good place to check would be at t=1
and then you would check the graph
or try the function at some other points
like you did
and say yea, this guess seems okay
jan Niku
ye
which, you can totally solve
yea
you may run into some problems or questions
but maybe a good first step is like
$0.2(t^2+1)=6t$
6/5/.2t^2+.2
jan Niku
oh tahts easier
this looks more familiar
you should get two answers
jan Niku
i dont know what happened here
how would we figure this one out
ye
how do we find the roots of a quadratic
Result:
0.16
,calc 36-.16
Result:
35.84
(i only vaguely followed all of that even though i know calculus but i think i do have an alternate actually-without-calculus way of solving it)
which one do you want
yea
i figured
wdym
you should share if you have something
i mean do you want the + or - or both
i think they might both be positive 
well you can figure C starts at 0
oh
because 6-sqr35.84 is also positive
it is 
,calc 6(30)/(30^2+1)
Result:
0.19977802441731
yea, seems about right
so, we start with $\frac{6t}{t^2+1} > x$, which is true at some $t$ iff $x$ is less than the maximum value
bee [it/its]
rearrange it a bit \ $6t > x(t^2 + 1)$ \ $xt^2 - 6t + x < 0$
bee [it/its]
I got the same answer
just wanted to make sure I understood what yall were saying
O mb again
(it* but yes)
yea sorry 
I am very sorry but idk if I should go into a whole nother thing
I gotta finish this last nit of homework and head to sleep
quiz tmmrw
now, the maximum is the x which is exactly on the boundary between this equation being solvable for some t, and it not being solvable for any t
yeah that's fair, i'm doing this more to show jan Niku
in other words it's the point where the minimum value is exactly 0, which occurs if $xt^2 - 6t + x$ is a perfect square
bee [it/its]
so it's $x(t-1)^2$ and that expands to $xt^2 - 2xt + x$, so $2x = 6$, and $x = 3$ is the maximum value
bee [it/its]
hrm i dont follow the leap
yeah tbf that is the sketchiest step here
xt^2-6t+x<0 if x is less than the maximum value
although once you've used it to identify that you should be looking at x = 3, the rest of the logic is still fine and gives you an actual proof that 3 is the maximum value, i think
well combined with finding the actual number that gives 3 as an output
ok well the minimum of a perfect square is exactly 0, and that's the only way this can happen - if the quadratic has 0 as a value at all, but isn't a perfect square, then values in between the two roots give negative results
why is that a problem
which part
negative results
well then the minimum isn't exactly 0, it's some negative number
why does it have to be exactly 0
i mean its the impulse right
i understand that
you stare at the set up and go yea that should be what we do
if we're allowed whatever tools we want, then, it's continuity
the minimum of the quadratic is continuous as a function of x, we have a region where it's positive, we have a region where it's negative, and the point we're trying to find is the boundary between those two regions, therefore it's going to be 0
ok actually i got it
im not really following
sorry
with x being the maximum value, this inequality, $xt^2 - 6t + x < 0$, shouldn't have any solutions
bee [it/its]
because those correspond to solutions of the original equation $\frac{6t}{t^2 + 1} > x$ which would imply that $x$ actually isn't the maximum
bee [it/its]
yea, but such an x producing that state doesnt need to be the maximum
or does that not matter
but, because it's exactly the maximum, and therefore is actually a value of the function somewhere, we can replace all of the < with =
because there is some solution to $\frac{6t}{t^2 + 1} = x$, \ there is some solution to $xt^2 - 6t + x = 0$
bee [it/its]
so the quadratic is 0 somewhere, but never negative, therefore its minimum value is 0
no offense but I'm going to throw in the towel
the fact that my bedtime was an hour ago is compounding the problems here
that i dont think are how you are explaining it
thank you for trying

i mean the fact that it's 5 am for me is probably not helping my explanations
(it took me multiple attempts to actually TeX $\frac{6t}{t^2+1}$ correctly and not end up with $6t^2$ or something)
why cant we just assume that such an x exists
bee [it/its]
but it doesnt matter
brains not braining
clearly $t = \frac 1 x \qty[ 3 \pm 3 \sqrt{1 - \qty( \frac x 3 ) ^2 } ]$
jan Niku
annd this is good enough
...ok my brain is just failing to comprehend this question and i genuinely can't tell at this point if it's a problem with the question or just sleep deprivation
another time maybe 
thanks bee
we can sub in for x
$t = \frac{1+t^2}{2t} \qty[ 1 \pm \sqrt{1 - \qty( \frac{3t}{1+t^2} )^2 } ]$
jan Niku
actually bee i think i understand what you mean now
about the perfect square
like here, its not enough that 3t/(1+t^2) = \pm 1
we actually need the entire quantity to only have one solution
anyways
bedtime

Why is the answer (y-sqrt(y)) when the sqrt(y) is the outer function radius?
That doesn't look correct.
Which of these is right
are you sure because someone smart told me the first one. is it that that’s a different method?
Yes, I'm sure.
That's not how you use the Washer Method.
You are essentially finding the volume of the outer boundary and then subtracting the volume of the inner boundary.
Because of integral rules, you can combine the two integrals into one integral.

Am i messing something up?
so with quadratic inequalities
the easiest way to solve it is to factor the quadratic
are you able to do that?
looks good so far
Hmm
now factor
is this the answer?
Yep
ok this is good
so answer is x<=-3 and x>=1/2
and they obtained the x values from the factored form
do you understand their table of sign method?
-5x = -6x+x might work
your factored form looks different
This is from a different question

in this triangle problem, when we solve for z, why do we do 12^2 = z^2 + 6^2, and not 9^2 + x^2 = z^2, i have a test today please anyone help!
and how will i know when to add the entire side and not just one part
12^2 = z^2 + 6^2 refers to the right triangle GHK
so why do we use the entire triangle to find z?
I suppose y is given and x is not?
yeah its not given
where does it say y is given 6 diretly
But both ways are correct, it's just you don't know what's x is as opposed to y
Well you can get z and by that x
How exactly? If you managed to find y I don't understand how you didn't also find x and z at the same time
first i found x by doing this
then i found y because it was a hyoptenuse of the smaller triangle
Oh then you can find z the same way
With 9^2 + x^2 = z^2 like you said, except you know x
when my teacher did it in class she used z^2 + x^2 = 12^2 , so i was wondering why she did that bc thats what i was thinking too
As long as you get the same answer...
wait ill check rn if its the same
I would have just solved a system of equations because I don't have that h=sqrt(nm) formula in mind
yes i got the same answer!

Back at it again ( i got help to derivate this), but he told me that the a is a constant, but can you assume that really?
In the excercise the x is “about 0”, is it fair to assume that the a is a constant then if it does not say anything about it ?
Okay, now I'm really confused why you thought a may not be constant
a = e, and e is a constant
Well that is the “next question” if so to say
The first is to compute the Taylor polynomial
From that first sentence, can we assume that the a is constant?
I mean, you are told to assume a = e, and e is a constant, so yes
a can be anything but it doesn't depend on x so you treat it as a constant
Anything other than an x term yeah

I have to get this final answer (i.e. 3623) into the form x ≡ a_k(mod m_k). So I know that I need to get it into mod330
In my textbook I have this but not sure how they got it
Where the first formula equation is
@hallow gull Has your question been resolved?
wait nvm ! I got it
Just as I started typing 
I still have one question though just for clarification! So we essentially are doing this? 3623 ≡ rmod330.
Pretty much, as before, you can add/subtract any multiple of 330 and you’ll have something equivalent, so, say, 323, or -7 are both “good” choices (the first one as it’s between 0 and 329, the second as it’s a number that’s smaller in absolute value so easier to do arithmetic with)
Okay great thank you : )
Also, I used the method of back substitution for a question. I always get confused by the inverse step. Do I need to do the whole extended euclidean algorithm to find it or is there a quicker way?
There is a quicker way (this was something I wanted to comment on before, but thought better of it)
Remember how I said that you can add/subtract numbers, and how I alluded to previously that -7 is smaller in absolute value?
yeah
Here, you know that 6 is equivalent to -1, so then you're reduced to thinking about what to multiply -1 with, such that mod 7, you get 1, but then, of course, -1 would be a good choice to use 
You could try the whole Euclidean algorithm, and find that 6's inverse mod7 is 6, cause of course 6* 6 = 36 = 7(5) + 1, but that saves a bit of time
In your working too, using that same idea, 165 is equivalent to 1 mod 2, so its own inverse, 110 is -1 mod 3, 66 is 1 mod 5, 30 is -3 mod 11...
The first three, it's pretty immediate to see their inverses in the new form 
Hmm yeah see idk why but my mind has trouble seeing this all in my head. Maybe you can help explain with this example that my prof showed? I am not really sure where the conclusion that we needed to find the inverse of 3mod7 came from in this
but it is a similar question
I just feel like seeing it already completed will help me
Sorry if I am basically ask you to repeat the saem thing again T_T . I am a bit slow
In this one, you're dealing with quite small numbers already, so for 3's inverse, you wanna find some number such that when you multiply it by 3, you get 1 more than some multiple of 7
Of course, 3 * 5 is 15, and that's 1 more than 14, a multiple of 7 (times tables
)
So you know that 3's inverse mod 7 is 5 (or any integer equivalent to 5 mod 7)
For your case, finding some integer such that if you multiply 110 by it, you get 1 more than a multiple of 3 is a bit pain, but finding a number such that if you multiply -1 by it, you get 1 more than a multiple of 3 is nicer to deal with (also remembering all the modular arithmetic properties) 
"ah, if i multiply -1 by -1, I clearly get 1, so -1's inverse must be -1 mod 3(!)"
Okay that makes sense, I think I get most of, I just don't know how I know that I want "1 more than some multiple of 7". Is that just by the theorem of an inverse that it a times a^-1 is equivalent to 1(modn)?
Yep, that's it, a * a^{-1} = 1 mod(n) is saying e.g. that a * a^{-1} = 1 + kn for some integer k, i.e. "the product is 1 more than some multiple of n"
Okay so then going back to this one. On the side there am I showing it correctly?
hmm I do't think so
It could be a bit clearer: taking from here, you know $6 \equiv -1 \mod(7)$, so your equation is now $(-1)s = 1 \mod(7)$ (from where, it should be instant that -1's inverse mod 7 is -1)
As for why 6 is -1 mod(7), if you really need to demonstrate it, you could of course say that 6 = 6 - 7 = -1 mod(7)

im really stuck on this bruh
conjugate axis on the line y=1
one vertex at (-2,5)
asymptotes with equations 4x-5y+13=0 and 4x+5y+13=0
i managed to find the center using the interescting point of the asymptotes which should be at (-13/4,0)
but the given vertex is at (-2,5)
shouldn't atleast one of their values be common (center and vertex) so that we can tell if its either horizontally-aligned or vertically-aligned?
i also tried plotting the given in desmos and i got this. WHICH DOESNT MAKE SENSE AT ALL 😭
1.) the conjugate axis passes through the center right? so based on this, the center would somewhere at (?,1)
2.) the intersection point of the asymptotes is where the center is, based on this, the center should be at (-13/4,0) or (-3.25,0) in decimal form, which already contradicts with my first point 😭
3.) shouldnt the center be alligned with one of the points of the vertex? so if the vertex is at (-2,5) then the center would be at (-2,?) or (?,5) right? WHICH ALSO CONTRADICTS MY FIRST TWO POINTS
WHERE IS THE CENTER BRAHH

Good evening, how are you?
I have a question about Fermat's theorem.
Fermat's theorem says that if a function f has a relative extrema at x=a and f is differentiable at x=a, then f'(a)=0.
To apply Fermat's theorem, do I need to ensure that the point where f has a local extremum is a right and left accumulation point of the domain? Or is it enough that it is a relative extreme?
As I understand it, if there is a relative extreme in a, by definition, there must exist a neighborhood with center a and radius delta such that every x that is in this neighborhood has an image greater than/equal to f(a) (as appropriate, if relative minimum or maximum). With this, that point a must be inside the domain and therefore it is an accumulation point to the right and left, without the need to clarify that.
Furthermore, for f to be differentiable at x=a, that is, for f'(a) to exist, point a must belong to the domain and also be an accumulation point; and if the lateral derivatives are not clarified, it should be understood that it is the derivative at that point and that it is the point of accumulation to the left and to the right.

Do you see the 2-
Nope, F- is fluoride
If they meant F- they would have said so
So it isn’t the first?
.
Badass
Lol
Second second
Almost done couple more questions
I hope you are not cheating on a test
This is a assignment
Who has a test at 8pm 😭😭😭
It's 8 in the morning for me lol
It’s 7:50PM
What’s this asking
8:20 am
If you have Na+ and SO4 2-
And someone asks you to write the compound
Then you write Na2SO4
Does this ring a bell?
NH4+ is ammonium
Shouldn’t it be the first
Cause of the 3
Since PO^3
So there needs to be a 3
@inland pulsar
$\ce{PO_4^{3-}}$
Kex
Potassium is 19
Chloride is 17
So should ie be the last one
Cl2-
Which period is chlorine?
Yes
Yeah first is correct
They suck
2 more questions and I’m out ur hair
Hw due tonight
So for this one
X Must be greater by 3
Since Y needs 3 to make it even
Yes, so?
So it should be the second
Why can’t It be the 4th
1 to 1/3
Check the signs
Ahhh both positive
not really our problem. to everyone else, if you want to help him with this, join that server as well

Can anyone help me pleasee
I've found the sides but I cant seem to find the height of the pyramid thats in the cylinder
Right triangle no?
My visualization skills aren't good enough for this holy
Top one is equilateral, others are right
Can't you find height if yk sides + equilateral?
$V=\frac{1}{3}Ah$
Kex
With A being the area of the equilateral triangle and h the height of the tetrahedron. I would start with the easier part, which is the area of the equilateral triangle that inscribes the circle.

....
As for the height, you could start determining the sides of the other triangles. They are isosceles and rectangular.
at this point you need to get a new help channel. yours timed out due to lack of timely response and has been claimed by someone else
I opened this channel to ask help so I can get my story based questions answers and solve buy someone else.
Oh...
👋
no, it's not a regular tetrahedron
the top triangle is equilateral, but the other three are only isosceles.
Okay
keep in mind that the tip that points to the bottom of the barrel has right angles, since it's a cube.
Okay i found it
The area of the top is 12 sqrt 3 and the sides are 12
Now what?
Sides of the equilateral triangle or the other equal sides of the isosceles triangles?
You need the equal sides of the isosceles triangles.
Since those form a rectangular triangle, with the other sides being the radius of the barrel and the height of your tetrahedron, which is what you ultimately want.
They should be equal one side of the equilateral triangle divided by sqrt(2)
Yes, essentially the relation between the side and diagonal of a square
Yeah, 4 sqrt 3 divided by sqrt 2 would be 2 sqrt 6
$4\sqrt{3}/\sqrt{2}=2\sqrt{6}$
Oh wait
I meant 4 sqrt 3
My bad
Reefus
Better
And now the height
How
I still dont get it ;-;
Ohhh
Oh right I completely forgot the corner to the centre of the triangle is the same as the radius of the circle
Well, I did say inscribe earlier 😄
Sorry I dont quite get the words from earlier
Not so good with words
So uhh

Hey guys
Can I get help with math ?
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
just ask brotha
Card game
A deck contains 52 cards, 13 of each of the four suits hearts, spades, clubs and clubs. The cards are numbered by denomination in descending order, Ace, King, Queen, King, 10, 9, 2, so Ace is the most valuable, but can count as 1 in straights
Ida and Matte play a variant of poker where at the beginning they have two hidden cards in each hand and three cards are face up on the table. The best poker hand that can be formed from the two cards on the hand and the three on the table is of interest for further play and betting. The most valuable poker hand is straight (five cards in a row and of the same suit). Next, in descending order, fours, house (three and pair), suit (all of the same suit), straight (five cards in a row), three, two pair, one pair, and highest card. If two players have the same type of hand, the one with the highest number on the trick wins if both have a house, on the highest pair if both have two different pairs, on the second highest pair if both have the same highest pair, or on the highest card if both have the same two pairs If they also have the same denominations (eg two pairs with the same two pairs and the same other cards) it is a tie and no one wins. No color is worth more than any other
Task 1: Assume that there are hearts Ace, hearts King and spades Queen on the table and that Ida has diamonds Ace and clubs Queen in her hand. Ida thus has two pairs.
(a) How many different pairs of cards can Matt have in his hand? (Note that the expression "pair of cards" in this and the following questions refers to two cards and not to "pair" in the sense of two cards of the same denomination.)
(b) How many different pairs of cards can Matt have that gives a better poker hand than Ida's?
I solved a
Now it’s b
We have 6 different ways
Three of same
5 in order
5 Same colour
Thee of same kind and pair
4 of same kind
5 Same colour and in order

Can this integral be solved?
Context?
if I had to guess, I'm pretty sure there's some exponential integral in there
e^x/x has Ei(x) as its primitive
and it's not pretty
What could I do?
$\iint_D \frac{xe^{2y}}{y+2} dxdy$
alee
where D is the plane domain between the unit circle with center at the origin and the ellipse with semi-axes a = 4 and b = 2 and contained in the first quadrant
what should be the result?
$\int_0^{\pi/2} \int^{\frac{4}{\sqrt{\cos^2\theta + 4 \sin^2 \theta}}}_1 \frac{r^2 \cos(\theta) \cdot e^{2r\cos(\theta)}}{r\sin(\theta) + 2} dr d\theta$

@cunning birch
Where did you get this exercise from?
So taking the cos outside since I will have to integrate in dr I get this
interesting
Maybe do a substitution to get rid of the y+2
y = rsin(theta)-2
then it basically becomes a xe^x problem
bacc the sigma😔🤞
I am just afraid if the 2nd integral with theta will give something neat
