so im doing Part a for this question and this is all i have so far
just had a question
will be using the finite geometric series formula here
like this one?
<@&286206848099549185>
Yeah you have $\sum_{i = 0}^{n} a \cdot r^i = a \frac{1 - r^n}{1-r}$
Vaizex
okay i just did it does this look good
Ya
Are you typing this on notepad lol

pls help
g(x) = 3 / x - 2
what im doing is
x = 3 / x - 2
then i bring x - 2 to the LFH
but im kind of stuck
how do you bring x-2 to the left side?
subject of oformula?
multiplying both sides by (x-2)
ill try with quadtric tq
i was hoping OP would say that
oh
looks right
ok just gotta use quadtric formula?
now you can solve that pretty easily
try factoring before
alr just use the trinomials?
just try factoring the expression x^2 - 2x - 3
ur answer was right π

have you found the inverse of y = 7x - 4?
if i'm thinking about it correctly you don't need to find the inverse function at all
wait you are
so what is it
so how should i do it
think about the fundamental concept of an inverse function
if i inverse it its just gonna be well inverse
what switches?
y and x
yes
so i swithc it first?
oh wait
i think i might ve get t=it
if i switch it an change it to inverse
i might be able to find the answer?
well there is an easier way
Flipping x and y gets you an inverse function. So y=7x-4 become x=7y-4 so a function of y would be y=x/7+4/7 or (x+4)7
Yup
yep
you didnt have to do all that work tho
but whats the easier way
yeah it too kme a couple seconds
but if theres a better way
happyto learn
so for a function you know that there's a domain and a codomain right?
yeah
so is h in the domain or the codomain
if inverse is equal to 2, that means that it is the value where x = 2 for the normal function
(since it is where y = 2 for the inverse)
(also im sorry i interrupted above)
you were right the first time
ho can h be the codomain
then wouldnt that be he output
2 should be the codomain right
because g is the inverse function
the inverse function pulls from the codomain and outputs an element in the domain
so it basiclaly swithces?
domain?
ohhh
we want to find a corresponding element in the codomain
just plug in 2 to g(x) and you should get the right ansewr
i see
iget it
but
i still dont understand
how can h be the codomain
its inside gx
pay attention. it is inside of g^-1(x), not g(x)

Prove:
Let $a_n$ be a positive sequence, such that $\lim_{x\to\infty} a_n =0$ therefore $\lim_{x\to\infty} 1/a_n =\infty$
prograce
Can I get a hint?
I'm trying to prove by using this: if a sequence is unbounded and montonely increasing then it diverges(?) to infinity
First I tried to prove that it's unbounded using the definition of bounded but I'm stuck
bit confused on what the question is, "unbounded and monotonely increasing" seems to be at odds with lim x-> inf a_n = 0
I have to prove the $1/a_n$ diverges to infinity not $a_n$
prograce
well you already said 1/a_n -> inf here
Yes but I have to prove that
if you are given lim a_n x->inf = 0, it just follows directly from that
Yes, intuitively, but this questions asks me to prove that this is correct using theorems and such
using this:
you can argue something along the lines of: assume there's a least upper bound N, then come up with a value of n such that a_n > N. that shows there's no least upper bound
n = N + 1 works
or wait
=\
with delta epsilon since lim a_n approaches 0, there must be some P s.t. for every n > P, a_n < 1/N
with that you'd have 1/a_n > N
Ohhh right
This what I did:
Assume wrongly that $1/a_n$ is bounded from above therefore there exists M such that $|1/a_n| \leqq M
But we know that $\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n=0$ therefore by definition, choose \epsilon = 1/M such that there must be an N such that for every n>N, $|a_n| < \epsilon = 1/N$ therefore $1/a_n > M$
In conlusion 1/a is unbounded from above
prograce

yes, exactly, I would just clarify in the 2nd to last sentence: therefore 1/a_n > M ** for n > N**
Ok
but that's it π
Haha now I prove it is increasing
that should be easier
Wait
Why switch the < sign here wheb you do 1/a_n
Shouldn't it still be 1/a_n<N
Then whay I did is not right
because when you take reciprocals of an inequality, if both signs are positive, you flip the sign
thats just algebra
think about it a bit \ come up with some simple examples in your head
2 < 5 => 1/2 > 1/5 etc.
Ahh yes yes
Okay! Will do the same by assuming it is decreasing then reach that it's wrong by doing ^
Like before, I assumed it's bounded and reached contradiction
from math import sqrt
this is just a simple inequality, no concepts of boundedness, decreasing etc. is happening here
just take reciprocals of both sides, what do you get
i mean that inequality holds for all n
so every successive term of your 2nd sequence is larger than the last
Yws I agree

hi, i am from india, i want to clear ISI exam for doing BSC in it. but i have lot of chapters backlog in maths, should i drop 1 year and then persue for its exam or should i continue my BSC with a normal college and cover my backlog parallely to clear the ISI exam.
It would be better if you ask this question in any indian discord server
This server is dedicated for math problems

I'm struggling to start this problem and the next. This is one of the questions I didn't do on my 3rd exam (I'm reviewing for finals).
I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to graph. The integrand? If so, why?
yes, you're supposed to graph the integrand
do you know what definite integrals represent
A definite integral is the area under a graph between the limits of integration.
yes
so graphing the integrand,
you can eval the definite integral by calculating the area

hi guys,
Hi
i know that
the limit of that
is 0 right
but
the question says theres an oblique asymptote
how do i
calculate it ?
hello ?
If you plug the f into the limit you get $-x+\frac{ln x}{2x}$

okay wait i accidentally clicked yes
one sec ill resend
can try .reopen
not sure what to do here
specifically the middle term
wait do I even need to multiply by x/x
wait is this literally just 4
the e^4x term
Why not use l'Hopital
again?
For the last limit
ok
The denominator would nicely simplify to 1 me thinks
16
Really
I did it in my head I got 12
Oh nvm
You're right
-1 is indeed a constant haha
LOL youre good
wait so im allowed to do lhopital, then trig manipulation, then lhopital again?
I mean it's all just manipulation
Essentially you're just making it easier for yourself to evaluate
Actually you could just have done l'Hopital repetitively from the start
Lol it's okay, maths is best learned the hard way

Why does the negative sign disappear when the top gets simplified to the bottom? Shouldn't it still be sqrt(30)/-2
suspicious crop
did they leave out the minus or did they just move it to the front
its already plus and minus
flipping that to minus and plus makes no difference
either way you are doing both
well yeah but it's 1 +- a negative number versus a postive, no?
not like it makes a difference
wait let me verify but you're prob right
yeah you're right, I feel dumb but thanks π

do you not just sub in x^n / n!
for e^x
sure, and then simplify the series
yes
yeah so you gotta show that that's the same as what they put
consider what that series looks like for even and odd n respectively

pls help I feel like I am banging my head against a wall
what have you tried
i tried finding the equation in terms of x
and then doing 2pi(integral from 10 to 12 (f(x)sqrt(1+f'(x)^2))dx
Integration
Eh around the y means the limits should be x , question wrong?
could you put this in mathematical notation? struggling to parce it rn
No, he just has to evaluate the x-coordinates
Hm? Can you explain?
That's not how it works
Is it not
???
that's not what's happening...
I am a lil rusty on volume integration
Can we wait for a more intelligent being to show up
The limits are given to indicate the lines between which we gonna measure the area
not volume
surface area
np
I wasn't paying attention π
could you write out what you originally said and take a pic or something? or write it in latex? so i can read it better?
? That's what he said tho
I am very rusty on SA calculations
he was talking about bounds of integration not lines in the coordinate plane
The bounds of integration are lines in geometric visualization
He would need ds/dy or ds/dx right
but you can change the bounds of integration
to different variables as appropriate
oh wait i see what you're saying
ignore
Probably op made a mistake or there is something we don't know
Yeah but about the y axis
idk if that works
oh
so When y=10, x=8
when y=12, x=64 like that guy said?
It shouldn't be tbh
I don't think it will be
The question is proper?
wdym proper?
oh yeah
isnt that what you mean?
x is actually y in that equation
??
tbh i'd just restart the problem i think the fundamentals are wrong
so, should I get the limits in terms of x or the equation in terms of y first?
or niether
i'd look back on your notes. what is the formula for rotating around the y axis?
for surface area of rotational solid its this
correct. so why do you need to solve for x in terms of y?
it tells us we want y in terms of x
so then we want the limits in terms of x?
yes
I think what you did there is the right one
bc here, f(x) is supposed to represent the radius right?
we're rotating around the y axis so we need it to be in terms of x
the radius will be x, so we need x=f(y)
so im on the right track now then
looks like you're on the right track just doing it myself to confirm we match π
we want the bottom integral
so ds in in terms of dy there
like here's a visualization
so x=h(y)
reading more it looks like we'll need a combination of our methods
we want the first part to be in terms of x but the second part to be in terms of y
see example 2 in that site
apparently i'm too tired to do math rn LMFAO
oh wait, so I'm wrong then
wait, lemme read it
i think you're right with example 2 solution 2
yea, I think so
but what's solution 1
so like that?
oh, you can use either one
we're both right
we killed it
so either make it in terms of x and the bounds be in x
or make it in terms of y and make the bounds be in y
so this works?
for that method, it should just be x outside the root
so x sqrt(1+(f'(x))^2)
what's the integrand that you're working with?
just realized that your dy/dx is also wrong
oh
well thats probably my problem then
I was wondering why I was so close to the answer
oooooooooooh
ok thanks so much

ok, so what did i do wrong here?
to be honest it seems like it would be easier to do an integral with respect to x here
but I thought it had to be with respect to y since it's being rotated around the x-axis
you can do it for either
oh ok ill try that then
Basically chain rule
If $y=f(x)$, then $\int g(y)\dd y=\int g(f(x))\frac{\dd y}{\dd x}\dd x$

think 4 points on a complex plane a b c d, lines ab and cd are paralel to eachother if they ensure
(a - b)(\bar{c} - \bar{d}) = (\bar{a} - \bar{b})(c - d)
how can we show that
@slim briar Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
What have you tried so far?
firstly i can do that for line start from the origin
because i assume that they are all on the same line
but i wonder how is it going if for example ab line passes the x=5
One way to go about this is to express these lines using a real parameter, say t in the reals
Are you aware of how to express a line in the complex plane using a parameter?
not at all i only know the point^s line equation z(alpha_bar)+zbar(alpha)=beta
also my instructer has said that you do not have to use line equation
If youβre comfortable with learning how to express a line using a parameter, this result will sort of fall out
I can go through the process of showing u how to express a line using a parameter
If youβve ever had linear algebra, this is basically just the same idea
determinant from linear algebra solves this with relation between determinant and area i think
now i am sending my solution
i hope it will have uploaded my connection is so bad
mathematically it is the solution i think but i can not imagine on complex plane

@split sail Has your question been resolved?
let the number of books read by reece be y and the number of weeks passed by is x
now we know reece has read 3 books already and reads one more every week
so we can write the equation for number of books read as y=3+x
if 1 week has passed then y=3+1=4 books
similarly for nicole the equation is y=1+2x
since she reads 2 books per week

How many triplets (x, y, z) (natural numbers) verify the equation:
It's not like this is hard, but I think it's maybe a combinatorics approach I'm not seeing well
I assume by natural numbers they also mean 0
so it includes 0
Yep
have you seen stars and bars?
Stars and bars...I'm afraid no
All I know is permutations, arrangements and combinations as we call them in romanian
As far as I can see it on google, it kind of makes sense what it is, I also thought of breaking it down to (10, 0, 0), (9, 1, 0)
Wait, so basically a sum of possibilities
sum of possibilities is tedious
when you can have an easy formula
ok, suppose x,y,z had to be positive integers
so > 0
natural in the >= 0 sense?
right now I'm supposing > 0 just to show you an example
Oh, I see
so
think of x y z as bags
and you have to fill those bags with 10 undistinguishable elements
Yes
to do that
the 10 undistinguishable elements can be placed from left to right
and we have to place 2 "bars"
to delimit:
on the left of the first bar: the elements that go to x
in between the bars: the elements that go to y
and on the right: those that go to z
Sure, makes sense
so
if we need every bag to have at least 1 element
since the elements look like this:
- - - - - - - - - -
oops
Yeah, discord is shit at this
something like that
Okay so I have elements
yep
That look like sticks
and we have to place 2 bars
to delimit the number of elements x,y and z get
for example we may do
- - - | - - - | - - - -
meaning x has 3 elements, y has 3, z has 4
Yup
but we can't do
| - - - - | - - - - - -
as we need for now every bag to have at least 1 element
So what is asking me is in how many ways we can place two bars between 10 elements without them on the edge
9
9*8?
Well I thought if I were to overlap bars then y would be 0
yes you can't overlap bars
but also
when you do 9 * 8
you're basically saying "9 spots possible for the first bar and 8 spots possible for the second bar"
Yes, that
but the bars are undistinguishable
Ohhh
had I switched the order in which I place the bars
So it's 298?
nothing changes
2 times 9 times 8
2 times?
Well since the bars are undistinguishable
this is computation done when the bars are distinguishable
but the bars are undistinguishable
so when you count 9 * 8
any configuration 'bar 1 bar 2'
is counted twice
because "bar 2 bar 1" is also there
so when you do 9 * 8, you overcount
Alright, I think it's 9*8/2?
yes
Since it'd remove half
aka 9C2
Which is implicitly yea
9C2
That's how to note it online? Always had issues with that
9!/7!2!
Which is 36
Coming back to our problems, now that we know they can overlap and they can be on edges
so
there's a way to go around that
but remember
if you have n elements (indistinguishable) to distribute into k bags
and give at least 1 to each back
we have (n-1)C(k-1) possibilities
so now
going back to x+y+z = 10 with x,y,z natural integers
(so >= 0)
what happens when you view this instead as (x+1)+(y+1)+(z+1) = 13?
Then I can't do the edges nor overlap as previously?
Because now we have a condition of existence
That suggests that x+1 will always be higher than 0
Given that x is a natural number
So, 13C2
?
13*12/2 issss...78
Wait
You literally just told me above
Oh wait no
x+1 > 0 yes
so yes
Of course π
Ohh, 12?
Because now we'd have 13 elements
From 0 to 12
12C2
12!/2!10!
12*11/2, 66
13 elements so 12 in betweens
for future refs
In combinatorics, stars and bars (also called "sticks and stones", "balls and bars", and "dots and dividers") is a graphical aid for deriving certain combinatorial theorems. It can be used to solve many simple counting problems, such as how many ways there are to put n indistinguishable balls into k distinguishable bins.

,, \frac{dy}{dx} = x e^y \ y(0) = 0
smeagol
yea sounds good
smeagol
I don't know what to do from here though
Integrate both sides
,, \int e^{-y} dy = \int x dx
\ -e^{-y} + C = \frac{x^2}{2} + C
\ y = - \ln( - ( \frac{x^2}{2} + C) )
smeagol
That's where C comes in
oh ln(1) = 0
& you mean x can never be 0
0 = - ln ( - 0 - C)
0 = - ln ( - C)
0 = ln ( - C)
e^0 = - C
- 1 = C
,, y = - \ln ( - (\frac{x^2}{2} -1 ))
smeagol

I know how to simplifily, I just don't understand what goes where the ... are
It's not a pattern of addition or multiplication, also not squares or cubes
I think the dots mean there is a pattern there
Answer key btw
12=2^2*3, 27=3^2*3, 48=4^2*3.... 18=3^2*2, 32=4^2*2 etc
i.e. 12-192 is square roots of [square number]*3, and 18-162 is square roots of [square number]*2

can someone walk me through the steps and explain how we integrated this
Which line did you get lost first
line 2 after the arrow
They did chain rule or substitution
u = 3-x for the first one and u=1-x for the second integral
Yea forgot to say they split the integral of a sum as a sum of two integrals

what does it mean graphically to take the integral of a linear function. what physical systems does it describe?
Area of a triangle
why do i get a y-value of 8 on the parabola and a y value of 4 on the linear function
what does it mean?
like how can i apply this in real life
where is that from
wdym
the blue graph is the area of the green line?
the area of the triangle is 8
you estimated the area under the curve from 0 to 4

π€¨
what r u having a problem with?
how far r u in the question
Not really
Hey huzz
hello?
Ok
Okay
whereas a big number like 3 means it's increacing very fast
Ohh okay thank you
Pick those two points and use the formula
(Y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
this number measures how much the y changes for each x change
a slope of 3 means that for every 1 unit you move in the positive x direction (right)
you move 3 units in the positive y direction (up)
Okay thank you so much!!
have you got it from there?
I think so
also for "downhill" slopes it's negative
so if you move to the right and end up doing down the slope is negative
Alright thanks

Hello
I'm trying to solve this system using the normal equation:
Using A^T * Ax = A^T * b
and then trying to find the error vector
I've found this vector for the x_hat:
but it seems to be giving me the wrong error vector
and I'm not sure why my solution doesn't work
I plugged in A and b into the normal equation, and got this
which I believe is correct
and this is the x_hat I got, which seems to be giving me an incorrect error vector, and I'm not sure why
if its solving Ax=b then im relatively sure theres no solution
it would demand x=-1
then -2+2y=8 so y=5
and also -1-y=3 so y=-4
As for the method youre using im not too familar
what do you get as your error vector and how do you know it's incorrect?
i might have just figured out
my x_hat is wrong i think
the error vector is [6 2 -1]
and the one i got was crazy, like 44/9, -7/9, and -29/9
wow, im sorry guys
complete typo on my part lol
i was solving b = [5 13] instead of [15 13]
now im getting the correct x_hat of [1 2]
appreciate the help nonetheless

What is the adjoint of a matrix? Concretely and abstractly.
The word adjoint has a number of related meanings. In linear algebra, it refers to the conjugate transpose and is most commonly denoted A^(H). The analogous concept applied to an operator instead of a matrix, sometimes also known as the Hermitian conjugate (Griffiths 1987, p. 22), is most commonly denoted using dagger notation A^| (Arfken 1985)....
Can also be https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjugate_matrix
In linear algebra, the adjugate or classical adjoint of a square matrix A, adj(A), is the transpose of its cofactor matrix. It is occasionally known as adjunct matrix, or "adjoint", though that normally refers to a different concept, the adjoint operator which for a matrix is the conjugate transpose.
The product of a matrix with its adjugate giv...

@modern torrent Has your question been resolved?
Proposition: Let $R_0 = {\alpha \in R: \alpha$ is integral over $S}$.
Then $R_0$ is a subring of $R$, i.e. closed under addition and multiplication.
utop!a
I guess, why specifically choose adjoint? I'm curious it if has any abstract properties similar to properties of diagonalization.
Depends on what's being proved
Looks like it's this one

I feel like I still don't have a grasp on change of basis. I kind of know the basics and what they represent from the 3b1b video. I could do change of basis problems that just involve tuples of numbers but I'm stuck on this question.
Consider the following equation 2x^2-2xy+5y^2=1 where the (x y) coordinates of vectors are relative to basis e1, e2.
consider another basis:
e'1 = (1/3)e1 - (1/3)e2
e'2 = (2/3)e1 + (1/3)e2
Write the equation relative to e'1, e'2.
I've basically just written the matrix
( 1/3 2/3 )
( -1/3 1/3)
but thats it

how do I simplify this:
(n/3) * ((n-1)/3) * ((n-2)/3)
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
multiply n x n-2 x n-2
and 3^3 (denominator)
huh
can I write 3! / 3Β²?
um no
3! is 3 factorial which is 1 x 2 x 3
is that what youre asking?
oh youre saying if it continues
so like ............... *(n-x)/3
then yes and it would be 3^x
youre welcome π
I am trying to simplify this:
1 / (0.5 * (3/3)) +
1 / (0.5 * (2/3)) +
1 / (0.5 * (1/3))
Instead of writing every time the next part like here.
E.g. if there are three parts I need to write three lines:
One with 3/3, one with 2/3 and one with 1/3
i dont understand where youre getting your numbers from
are you talking about writing a summation?
ok so like i described before you are right about the numerator being a factorial
but the denominator isnt

p sure its just 6/k
just happy i got here before diamond π
And we too many helpers
from n=1 to whatever it goes to
no
assuming this is what u wanted in summation
its a factorial of n
wheres the factorial
that was an example
omg
they literally said they are trying to simplify that
just because im female diamond doesnt mean idk math
are you sure its an example
