Although not quite fully math (but taken from a discrete math textbook), I want to see if I am understanding the propositional logic properly.
My approach was forming the propositional statement:
The path on the left leads to the ruins if and only if you are a liar.
If the villager only tells the truth:
- T <-> F = F, will say no, implying it is the correct path
- F <-> F = T, will say yes, implying it is the wrong path
If the villager lies: - not(T <-> T) = F, will say no, implying it is the correct path
- not (T <-> F) = T, will say yes, implying it is the wrong path
To make this a question, would it simply work to say:
Would you say yes to the statement: "The path on the left leads to the ruins" if and only if you are a liar?

let <P(N), ⊆> be poset, does there exists A subset of P(N), s.t A doesnt have infimum?
Message #proofs-and-logic
this might help
posts the solution
well half of the problem is finding out whether its true or false in the first place
kinda but I really had no other hint I could think of
like "try to find a formula for inf(A) if it does exist" also gives too much
"play with some examples"
@hoary acorn Has your question been resolved?
guys
im sorry, for some reason i didnt get ping for your answers
@glass heart @mortal orbit
well we didnt ping you
Boyjee raised a concern to think about property
i thinked about generalizted intersection
which proved this :PPP
i proved that there is infinum for every A subset which is not empty
👍
This approach is correct? using the unary intersection of A?
yes

let A be subset of Z, non empty, proof there exists a in A s.t for all b in A, a<=b, it's kinda trivial, but is there any math tools to show that?
is it a drinker paradox?
Let A = Z 
except this isn't true, suppose A is the negative integers
are you given that A must be bounded?

anyone know how to solve this?
that is just math nonsense
although actually it might be integrable
it's just written in an exceedingly obnoxious way and is clearlyt intended as a joke
yeah there's an awful loto f cancellation going on in there
you just substitute e_e = x
the bounds are clearly just 0 to 1
i'm not motivated enough to try to sort out al the other tweakery
it took me 5 lines to solve xd
yeah its not actually hard i think

How many numbere are there below 200 which are not divisible by 3 or more prime numbers?
what do you mean by more prime numbers?
Options are 168, 122,197,65
isn’t 168 divisible by 3?
how is the question considering multiplicity
168 means the number of numbers that is the statement true for
The question is in Hindi, even i am not understanding it properly
Correct answer given is 168
e.g. for 8, is the factor of 2 only counted once (or three times)?
your translation is fine here
Ok, i understood the question
Please explain it to me. I wm still having headache what the problem is
3×5
yes, note that there are only 2 different primes there
(less than 3) which will count towards what you want
compare that to
210
210 is out of our sample
whoops , ok. 182
which satisfies divisiblity by 3 or more primes, so this doesn't count towards what you want
I see
So i will count numbers which doesn't have 3 prime numbers divisible
3 or more
one or two
from the expected answer, only seems to be 32
yes
oh wait
i was thinking about counting the complement
products involving 3 or more different primes
and there should be 32 of those
distinct primes?
Yes i count it is 168 lol
I guess no
If we substrate these numbers we get 168 answer
@dull wagon
If I substrate 199-31=168
How to count these 31 numbers
Is there any pattern?
@crimson cliff
I tried to count but too much difficult

I need help solving C
<@&286206848099549185>
could you solve the 3rd part of b)? you underlined that too
I don't need b anymore just c
I have no idea how t solve c
anyways if you did, you just have to subtitute the mileage for x into that equation
so y=-0.263 times 52,500 +38.435?
y=-0.263x+38.435 is the equation so I plug in 52,500 for x?
that feels wrong...
so, what did you plug for x?
I plug in 52,500 given to me in C
look at the table for the format of the miles
ok
you just have to convert the 52500 miles, and it should be good then
convert the 52500 miles to what?
the table doensn't simply contain milage but mileage * 1000, so what you plug in for x should be in a same format
well, how would you read the first entry of mileage out loud? (the 28) what is it?
i read it with a Mileage of 280000, and Price of $30000
yes
not sure how to help without outright telling the answer :\, ill try explaning the equation. y = -0263x+38.435 means -> price(in thousand dollars) = -0.263(deprecation rate) * x(in thousand miles) + 38.435 thousand dollars for a brand new car
oh shoot...I need to do more...
Can you tell me step by step plz?
Step 1:y=-0.263x+38.435 replace x with 52500000 right?
then x would mean 525000000000 miles
but you have to make it so the value you plug in for x mean 52.5 thousand miles.

Result:

,calc 16/81
Result:
0.19753086419753
wdym?
it implies an equation right
h(x)=y=ab^x
9=a(b)^-1
jan Niku
pretty useful!
how?
it means we can write 9b=a
you get this?
yup
why?
to get 9b=a
because this is very useful
it means if we have another equation we can replace all the a with b
so write the other equation implied here
you have one more point
16/9=a(b)^3
except, dont use a
y
instead of a
9b
16/9=9b(b)^3
sure
,calc 16/9 / 9
Result:
0.19753086419753
solve for b
how?
$b^4 = \frac{16}{27}$
jan Niku
nvrm i got it
its +- 2/3
which one do i use?
- 2/3?
wait no -2/3
since its decaying
wait my teacher used 2/3
err wait
+2/3
how?
sorry thought it was the exponent
(-a)^x is actually not super well defined
wdym
only positive numbers to the x are nice
always use the positive?
negative numbers to the x are an advanced topic
for a base to the x, yes
huh?
i couldve done this
16/9 / 9
which is 16/81
and since -1 to 3 is four spaces, right?
i could do square root 16/81
which is 2/3
so i know from each whole number there is 2/3 change
right?
so y=a(2/3)^x
does it work?
lol no pains no gains

I want to show that this algorithm sorts all arrays correctly
I want to use induction
Not sure what the function for this would look like tbh
The base case is simple enough, as an array of [1] is already sorted
@latent zinc Has your question been resolved?
@latent zinc Has your question been resolved?
the induction is baked into the statement
assume the left and right halves are sorted by the mergesort call
then the merge operation will guarantee that the entire array is sorted
how would you write it for a paper?
Mergesort(A,i,i+1) is the base case
Mergesort(A,i,j) calls Mergesort(A,i,m) and Mergesort(A,m+1,j)
by the inductive hypothesis, both Mergesort(A,i,m) and Mergesort(A,m+1,j) are sorted
then show that using the merge algorithm, the array on [i:j] is also sorted
@latent zinc Has your question been resolved?
not sure how to proceed
because they are previous iterations?
basically since we know that Mergesort(A,i,m) and Mergesort(A,m+1,j) are sorted, we can know that Mergesort(A,i,m), which returns a A[i,j] also will be sorted

If an assignment is worth 6.25%, the midterm is 25%. A student gets 108% on the assignment and 82% on the midterm. If the bonus mark from the assignment gets shifted to the midterm, what is the students score out of the 25% for the midterm?
what ahve you tried
is the answer 22.5%
how are you getting that
is it right?
i haven't done the calculations yet
so for the assigment the bonus is 8% you agree?
show me how you're getting it and i'll be able to check whether its valid
8% of the assignment marks, yes
ok, and the mark for the midterm is 82% so 82% + 8% = 90% for the midterm
good so far?
no
whats wrong
can't add percentages like that due to the different weighting of marks for each task
how else would i do it
for an intuitive way, consider having the whole course out of 100 points
with the assignment worth 6.25 points
and the midterm worth 25 points
how many bonus points do they have from the assignment
8?
not sure
8% of the assignment marks
100% would get you the full 6.25 points
of is akin to multiplication
what is 8% of 6.25
i.e. what is 8% * 6.25
0.5
yes
now similarly how many points do they currently have for the midpoint (out of 25) before shifting?
what is 82% of 25points
yes
21 out of 25
yes

i dont get the proof for iii)
how is <gog'(v), v> = <g'(v), g'(v)>?
How do you have g* defined?
But how do you get g*? As in, if I give you g, how do you describe g*?
i dont know the english word is it self adjungated?
Sure
generally you have that (g(v), w) = (v, g*(w)) at least
(g(v), v) = (v, g*(v))which theorem is that or where can i find that info .o
so self adjungated would be <v,F(w)> = <F(v), w> thats it isnt it?
Yea, adjoint is the F*, if you're self adjoint then F = F*
ah okay so <gog'(v), v> is logical but i dont get how he gets this <g'(v), g'(v)>
where does the g'(v) on the right side come from and where did g go on the left side i dont get it rn @upper sparrow
Because as per before for the adjoint you have (g(u), w) = (u, g*(w)) for any g
So set u = g*(v), w = v

how do i do this?
what's your working definition of "continuous at a point"?
if a limit from both sides go to it ?
what's "it"
the point
you'll need to be much more specific
oh ok what is your definition
that would give away the answer
what is "the point"?
😿
The point ur trying to prove is continuous
The x value i mean ?
lol I tried
you're indeed looking at a limit, and specifically the limit at that point
the definition of continuous at x=3 is $\lim_{x\to3} f(x) = ???$
Steakanator
Oh yes
you need to identify what goes in place of the ???
So the y value the function meets at x =3 ?
f(3) would be a more ideal answer
no
Oh wth
your original definition of f has (x-3) in the denominator
it also has (x-3) in the numerator
so f(3) = 0/0
yes
Closed by @onyx quiver

✅
Ok nvm imconfused
Wouldnt it be lim x>3 f(x) = 5
So if the limit equals 5 then what is all that bs I said about to prove a point is continuous you look at if the limit exists
it's not enough for the limit to exist
it has to exist and equal the value of the function at that point
So if a limit has a hole then its not a limit
what
Since thers a hole at (3,5) is that the reason why lim x>3 f(x) does not exist
who said the limit doesn't exist?
this is precisely why I specified "removable discontinuity"
this type of discontinuity is present when the limit exists but the function is undefined
Oh ok
The reason why F(3) doesnt exist is because x cant equal 3
Im a genius

im trying to understand when to determine it is best to use the Formula of distributing n identical objects in r distinct boxes (n + (r-1) / n) , or some other counting formula
came across this problem, i could draw it out mayb
but id rather do it mathematicaly
The formula for permutations of n distinct objects taken r at a time is this i think
@unkempt kite Has your question been resolved?
personally I'd find the total number of possible exercises, then subtract off the amount where you do exactly 2 in a row, then subtract off the amount where you do exactly 3 in a row
and that would be pretty easy I think
that makes sense
so there isnt a distinct formula i should be using
total number of possib exericses is just 7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x3x2x1 = 5040
Exactly 2 in a row= 6! × 2!
then xactly 3 in a row= 6! × 3!
5040 - 1440 - 4320
wait no
somethings off none of the options have that sum
Well you see when you remove exactly two in a row you are also removing 3 in a row
Because out of those combinations there is also a combination where the three line up
ah ok so i can just omitt the subtraction of the 3rd row
5040 - 1440 = 3600
hmm doesnt seem like its an option
Don't you need to minus two together 3 times?
Also i think it minuses all three together 3 times but we need only once so we add 2 times
sorry wym minuses 3 times and add 2 times
that's why I said exactly lol, that usually implies not more or less than
so do the cases where there are only 2 in a row, not 3, then do the cases where there are 3 in a row
then subtract from the total number of possible exercise routines
was that not this here?
1440
subtracting from the total number of exericse routines
which is 5040
wouldnt that be 5040 - (1440+720)?
it is, I was reiterating lol
i just did what I said and one of the answers is what I got so
i tried doing what you said here, but the options aren't one of them, perhaps i misdid smth?
how did you get those numbers in the parentheses
okay sure, walk me through what you did for this
a helpful tip is to first assume everything is indistinguishable, then make it distinguishable
it's much less confusing that way
okay, how many possible ways did you get for exactly 2 units to be in a row
that's the first question
okay I see what you were doing I think
but this actually includes scenarios where there are 3 in a row
and it also doesn't account for order
lemme give a picture to help visualize
these are the possible layouts for 2 exercises in a row, and the number on the right represents the number of possible orderings with EXACTLY 2 in a row, not including 3
do you see where I got 4 for the first row?
each blue circle represents a leg exercise, in no particular order
so in the first row/layout, there are only 4 possible places to put the third exercise
otherwise there are 3 in a row
ohhh ok
I did the same thing for each row
hopefully you see where I'm going with this
if we focus on the first row, there are 4 places you can put leg exercises. after that, you need to make everything distinguishable, so multiply 4 by 3!*4!
you can do something similar for the other case
is it the arrangement with the remaining exercises after placing the leg ones
like the number of ways to arrange the exercises within the leftover slots after placing the leg exercises
you might be right and I'm not understanding, but what this does is determine where the leg exercises can go, it doesn't determine which ones are where. so right now, all leg exercises are indistinguishable, and so are the leftover ones. so to make the leg exercises dist, we have 3! ways, and to make the others dist, we have 4! ways
oh ok
we had some formulas for these types of qs
in our labs
like here for example
i was thinking of trying to to do something similar
for the problem now
here the hall must have 2 walls
rn, 2 leg exercises cant go back to back
so ( n choose n - k) formula is what i was thinking could work
but then again the n and k value is what im trying to determine too, if i were to proceed with this
this isn't the same situation tho since a non-leg exercise can be between 2 leg exercises
so you can't use that formula sadly
the argument I made is essentially that same argument actually
just a little different bc of this
ohhh
so we pretty much need to make these leg exercises distuingshable
3! ways, and 4! ways
yep pretty much

🫡 Relearning linear algebra after forgetting everything
What equation must be satisfied for the augmented matrix to correspond to a consistent system? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
k+2g + h = ???
I have no idea how to figure this out 
wait
i misread the matrix 
Am i doing this right or naw
No R3 + 2R2 doesn't equal that
Even with R1 that math is wrong

What's 2 * R1?
What
Then you should review elimination
This precalculus video tutorial provides a basic introduction into the gaussian elimination - a process that involves elementary row operations with 3x3 matrices which allows you to solve a system of linear equations with 3 variables. You need to convert the system of equations into an augmented matrix and use matrix row operations to write it ...
I know what elimination is, i dont need to review
just addition and subtraction mistakes

Where can I go from here for this inductive proof?
yeah everything you written so far its correct
Thanks. I always kinda get stuck at this point with these inequality proofs that have a summation
try factoring out a 1/2 out of the last k+1 terms in the summation
I wouldn't directly write that the sum is smaller than 2. (I'll define a:=sum 2^(k+1) and b:=sum 2^k ), now you can calculate that 1/a + 1/b < (here you use the assumption) 2 + 1/b.
Then you simply calculate both sides with -1/b and you get what had to be shown
@tulip basin Has your question been resolved?
I still dont understand. Are these sums right? And i don't know how you can directly use the assumption to say 1/a < 2
The idea is, that if a < b,
then a + c < b + c
and if you subtract the c, you get a < b
It's so easy that people overthink it, but you are actually done,
so for you case sum(1/2^i) + sum(1/2^(k+1) < 2 + 1/sum(1/2^(k+1), if you subtract the last part for the right inequality, you get your assumption and that's the proof

I found the slope of the tangent line to be 3
which lines up
but what you do from there is what I don't get
Do you know the point-slope formula for a line?
Y - Y2 = m ( X - X2 )
Sorry?
how do you get this formula
$$y_1 = mx_1 + b$$
$$y_2 = mx_2 + b$$
casework
You subtract those 2
like in a literal sense?
You differentiate the given equation to find the slope
Now do you know a point where the tangent goes through?
What do you mean?
Subtract one from the other
how would the substraction process go
You get the formula
ok I get y1-y2
$$(y_2) - (y_1) = (mx_2 + b) - (mx_1 + b)$$
where does the b go
casework
B cancels out as you can see
No
it doesn't
m is factored
x2-x1
You take the m as a common factor
$$y_2 - y_1 = mx_2 - mx_1 $$
wyldinwilliam
oh i see
dy/dx = 2x - 3
So f'(3) = 6 - 3 = 3 = m
$$y_2 - y_1 = m(x_2 - x_1 )$$
wyldinwilliam
Now just plug x_1 and y_1
$$y_2 - 3 = 3(x_2 - 1)$$
wyldinwilliam
There you go
but why x1 y1
is that because that is the initial
x and y
$$y_2 - 3 = 3x_2 - 3$$
wyldinwilliam
wyldinwilliam
Hold on you plugged in x and y backwards
It doesnt matter
If you plug it for x_1 , y_1 or x_2 , y_2
No they used (1,3) instead of (3,1)
No i mean the point (1, 3) was plugged instead of (3, 1)
Yes that
Oh i see
wyldinwilliam
Yea sorry didnt see that
$$y_2 - 1 = 3(x_2 - 3 )$$
wyldinwilliam
$$y_2 - 1 = 3x_2 - 9 $$
wyldinwilliam
$$y_2 = 3x_2 - 8 $$
wyldinwilliam
$$0 = 3x_2 -y_2 - 8 $$

im not sure what im doing wrong unless the equations i used were wrong so ill attach those and my work
and i know sin and cos are negative in quadrant 3, and tan is positive
the answers i uploaded also evaluate to the same value as what i get when directly plugging the value of cos theta into the formulas so i dont think theres an error in my work. idk what the issue is
This is correct
However, we are not finding them for theta, we are finding them for theta/2
We know that pi < theta < 3pi/2, so pi/2 < theta/2 < 3pi/4
this range is entirely in quadrant 2
so sin is positive, cosine is negative, and tan is negative
that should help
hmm ok! i'll see what i can do with that, thank you.
great! i just changed the signs and it was able to accept the answers. I appreciate the help and wasn't even thinking about applying the division by 2 to the given domain
this discord server is honestly so much more helpful than trying to ask chatgpt and getting some made up explanation

The great mathematician Countalot discovered the Incredible numbers: he does not know yet if they are finite or infinite, but he made the following conjecture:
If they are infaite, then at least one of them hes 8 distinct prime factors.
One of his students, Countagain, showed that Conntalot's conjecture is false.
Therefore he proved that:
A. if Incredible numbers are finite, then none of them has 8 distinct prime factors
B. if Incredible numbers are finite, then all of them have 8 distinct prime factors
C. Incredible numbers are infinite and all of them have 8 distinct prime factors
D. Incredible numbers are infinite and none of them has 8 distinct prime factors
E. Incredible numbers are infinite
yea D is right

hi, i was wondering if there is any way of factorising x^3+x+1 over complex numbers
since x^3+x+1 has 3 root in C,
if you can find the 3 roots,e.g. a,b,c
then you can write it like
(x-a)(x-b)(x-c)
so it's more like a cubic question

median
intuitively speaking, why is the formula for the median = (n + 1) / 2 ?
What's n here?
number of values in the dataset
that's not true for all data sets... where did you see this formula?
well it's true for datasets w/odd number of inputs
it's not that deep, just a highschool formula
i tend to sometimes forget it and would like to know the reason behind the +1 to the n in there
it's not true, though. the median of a data set is just the middle value when you sort the data points by size. if there are two middle points you take the mean of the two of them

well u use that formula to find that position

oops
hey, @swift laurel , any opinion would be nice. Don't hesitate, even if it's not too accurate or smth
there's a sort of disconnect between when we mean "halfway through a dataset", and "half of a number". take a 7-point set. The "halfway mark", if we start counting from 1, is really halfway between 1 and 7, but half of 7 is really halfway between 0 and 7
we can compensate for that by adding an extra 1/2, since the difference between those notions of "halfway" are only different by 1/2

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \left( \frac{n}{n^2+1} - \sqrt{\frac{n^2}{n^4+1}} \right)$
alee
how can I understand if after a certain index "n" this difference becomes positive, I thought of making the limit of n-> +infinity of this thing, but I don't know if it's correct
What's your goal with the series in the end?
Do you want to show first term > second term for sufficiently large n?
if you can show that the individual terms are (past some point) positive and increasing then the series necessarily diverges
because if the sequence is positive and increasing then the limit of the sequence is not 0, and thus the related series divergees by the divergence test
see if the series converges or diverges
ok
lim(n to inf), etc.
so if it is 0, then you'll need a diff test
but shouldn't I first see if the series is on positive terms?
Can I see what the series is asymptotic to?
I don't think it's really asymptotic to anything
What is -1 / n^3
if yiou can squeeze it with 1/n^3 then you can show it converges because sum of 1/n^3 obviously converges
what the series is asymptotic to
-1/n^3
if it is asymptotic at -1/n^3 then the series converges
but the question was whether before doing these things, I had to and how to see if the series was on positive terms????
just use the absolute value. if sum |a_n| converges, so does sum a_n
yes, help channels have no embed restrictions
I did both the asymptotic comparison and the limit in the same steps
Is correct ?
i won't guarantee it but let me point out that if you can show that |a_n| < 1/n^2 for sufficiently large n, then that gives you convergence, and i think you have that
so what should I add in my exercise?
my question was: "how can I understand if after a certain index "n" this difference becomes positive, I thought of making the limit of n-> +infinity of this thing, but I don't know if it's correct"
i don't think that is a legitimate test of whether a series converges
how can I do

i drew the coordinate system at O (the blue lines) so that the x-axis is parallel to AC to have alternate interior angles, the question is find the coordinates of A,B and C the work is easy but i feel that i have something wrong idk
let the origin be O, what i did is that i found the angles OAC and OCA using law of cosines then i used the fact that each of these angles are alternate interior angles with the angles on the x-axis respectively
so A(7.3cos(OAC),7.3sin(OAC)) and C(5.1cos(OCA),5.1sin(OCA))( i have angle and radius so i can use these to convert to rectangular coordinates as above)
is this work correct
or am i missing something
