do you understand this definition?

dapper moon
#

yes

remote mural
#

perfect

#

do you think this series converges or diverges? (and why?)

dapper moon
#

diverges, because ~ (n^2*n^(1/2))/(n*n^(3/2)) = 1

remote mural
#

good

#

what is a very VERY popular divergent series that is also EASY to work with?

#

it's probably one of the first ones you learned about in calculus 2

dapper moon
#

1/n

#

harmonic series

remote mural
#

yes

#

indeed

#

how can you use this definition then? @dapper moon

dapper moon
#

so I did lim n->∞ an/bn with bn being 1/n. it's ∞?

calm coralBOT
#

@dapper moon Has your question been resolved?

dapper moon
#

I'm still clueless I don't like series

imma help u

#

Lets assume the oppsite

#

let a(n) be a siries that approaches infinity when n approaches infitiy

#

let b(n) be a siries that approaches constant c , such that c is positive, finite and belongs to to the set of real numbers

#

t.f limit (an/bn) as n approcahes infinty approaches 0 meaning not possitve so we ruled out the first option

#

now the second option

#

let b(n) be a siries that approaches infinity when n approaches infitiy
let an) be a siries that approaches constant c , such that c is positive, finite and belongs to to the set of real numbers

#

t.f limit (an/bn) as n approcahes infinty approaches inifitiy meaning not possitve so we ruled out the second option

#

now lets assume minus

#

let a(n) be a siries that approaches infinity when n approaches -(infitiy)
let b(n) be a siries that approaches constant c , such that c is negative , finite and belongs to to the set of real numbers

#

notices the the negative cancels out because c must be possitve

#

let b(n) be a siries that approaches infinity when n approaches -(infitiy)
let a(n) be a siries that approaches constant c , such that c is negative , finite and belongs to to the set of real numbers

#

notices the the negative cancels out because c must be possitve

#

t.f both a(n) and b(n) must divrige or converge to cancel each other out (intuitivly)

#

From a deck of 52 playing cards, how many different 5-card hands
(a) are possible? (b) include only cards of the same suit? (c) include 3 black and 2 red cards? (d) include at least 1 heart?

remote mural
#

(A) C(52,5)

#

Now the rest I don’t know what to do

#

There are 4 suits for (b)

#

Clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades

#

So how can I choose a 5 card hand with the same suit

rustic osprey
#

Then ||multiply by 4||

remote mural
#

So job 1: choose a suit

#

That’s 4

#

Then job 2: choose 5 cards within the suit

#

How many cards r in a suit tho?

#

13?

#

So I get 4 x c(13,5)?

rustic osprey
#

Yeah

remote mural
#

Ok

#

So for (c) now

#

Let me try to solve it myself and you tell me if it is good

rustic osprey
#

I gotta dip but I’ll come back later if nobody else answers

#

For (c)

LA question:

P_2(R) has iner product: <p.q>= int_0^1(p(x)q(x))dx

v_1=1 and v_2=sqrt(12)(x-½) are orthagonal unitvektors.

Find a base for this innerproduct room.

gusty summit
#

So I assume the base is gonna need 3 vectors, two of them could be v_1 and v_2, so I need to find a third one.

#

This third vector let's call it v_3 should follow this

#

<1, v_3>=0
<sqrt(12)(x-½, v_3>=0
|v_3||=1

teal ridge
#

hi

gusty summit
#

So I thought I could do some equation system , so find v_3 but I got stuck

#

$0=\int_{1}^{0}1\cdot v_3 dx=\int_{1}^{0}\sqrt{12}(x-\frac{1}{2})\cdot v_3 dx$

potent lotusBOT
#

binnet

gusty summit
#

I tried simplifying this extression as:
$0=\int_{1}^{0} v_3 dx = \sqrt{12} \int_{1}^{0} (x-\frac{1}{2})\cdot v_3 dx$

potent lotusBOT
#

binnet

gusty summit
#

But it looks like that would be:

#

$ 0=\int_{1}^{0} v3 dx = \sqrt{12} [ \frac{1}{2}x^2- \frac{1}{2}x]{1}^{0} \int{1}^{0} v3 dx $

spare beacon
#

I don't want to puzzle out what you are trying to do here, but you are supposed to take any linearly independent vector and apply the gram schmidt process to it then normalize it.

gusty summit
#

oh, derp

#

so:

#

v_3 = v_1 - v2 - something like inner product...

#

then normalize it

#

Okay will be a pointer in the right direction, closeing for now

lol, where do i find the 3rd ortho vector to use though?

#

v_3 = (some vector) - <(some vector),v_1>/<v_1,v_1> - <(some vector),v_2>/<v_2,v_2>

#

is this correct?

#

anyone?

#

$v_3 = ?? - \frac{<??,v_1>}{<v_1,v_1>} - \frac{<??,v_2>}{<v_2,v_2>} $

#

$$ v_3 = ?? - \frac{<??,v_1>}{<v_1,v_1>} - \frac{<??,v_2>}{<v_2,v_2>} $$

minor gust
#

Can someone explain to why it must be a

#

And why c isn’t necessarily true

crystal forge
#

what do you know about odd functions?

unreal viper
#

yeah can you write the definition of an odd function

minor gust
#

Diffirent end behaviors

#

-f(x)= f(-x)

unreal viper
#

that isnt right

#

that is right

minor gust
#

?

#

I thought odds have diffirent end behaviors

unreal viper
#

yeah but they are symmetric in some sense

#

its not just the end

crystal forge
# minor gust -f(x)= f(-x)

yeah, so what is a geometric interpretation of that, if you look at the graph of an odd function? (hint: what kind of symmetry doesx that imply?)

minor gust
#

Symmetric over the x axis

unreal viper
#

yes

crystal forge
#

no

minor gust
#

Even is y axis and odd is x axis

unreal viper
#

yeah so if you have a maximum at f(3) then what is going on at f(-3)

#

if the function is odd

crystal forge
#

odd isn't symmetric over the x axis, it's symmetric over the line y = x, or you might hear it referred to as symmetric over the origin

#

^ example

unreal viper
#

thats just pedantic lmao

minor gust
#

Oh origin

unreal viper
#

of course he doesnt mean literally a mirror

minor gust
#

Oops it’s Oregon

#

Origin

unreal viper
#

because then it wouldnt be afunction

#

i get what you meant propus

minor gust
#

Ye mb

crystal forge
minor gust
#

Oh I get it now

unreal viper
#

yes but i understood what he meant

#

i guess you didnt Soosh

#

he drew picture

minor gust
#

Bc of the symmetry

unreal viper
#

its clear he knew what he meant

#

when he said symmetric on the x axis he meant its vertically symmetric when odd and horizontally symmetric when even

#

which is a good way to remember the difference

crystal forge
#

so what it is good teaching to tell someone theyre correct when they say the wrong thing? im confused why are arguing over this

#

i didnt see the picture they wrote on the original question paper

unreal viper
#

i think propus understands now

minor gust
#

Ye I got it

#

Thanks

#

I wasn’t thinking about symmetry

crystal forge
#

@minor gust anyway so if there is a local max at x = 3, what would be happening at x = -3?

minor gust
#

Min

#

Minimum

crystal forge
#

yeah and which one of the answer options?

minor gust
#

A

crystal forge
#

yeah you got it

dense lion
#

essentially how do i turn the x^2/3 into a u so i can do trig sub

unreal viper
#

well isnt the derivative of y actually x^{-1/3}

#

but regardless of that

dense lion
#

yes it is

#

but i have to square the derivative right

#

for arc length

unreal viper
#

yeah but that should give you x^{-2/3}

dense lion
#

my friend told me it becomes positive

unreal viper
#

the exponent doesnt

dense lion
#

BREUH

unreal viper
#

think about exponent laws

#

you multiply -1/3 to 2

#

thats -2/3

dense lion
#

yeah

#

that makes sense

unreal viper
#

anways

dense lion
#

i got 63

unreal viper
#

you could maybe try x^{-1/3} = tan(theta)?

#

for your sub

#

im not sure if itll work

dense lion
#

cant i do u sub?

unreal viper
#

im not sure

#

but try the trig sub maybe

#

although it may be icky

orchid palm
#

am I missing something here?

#

what is wrong about this, it seems like I just take the provided identity and subtract cos^2(theta) from 1

swift laurel
#

with trig identities you have to match the angle on the inside/the input

#

so $\sin^2 (\theta) + \cos^2(4\theta) \ne 1$ because the inputs don't match

thorny sorrel

#

oh, you're asking how did someone find the vector in pink?

thorny sorrel
#

i thought we just row reduce

#

but its weird answer after calculating

pallid halo
#

you have a lot of freedom, there are infinitely many valid answers
one way is to say ok, this is two equations with five variables, so i can set three of them freely, like this:

#

[x y 0 0 0] for example

#

then take the dot product of [1 0 1 -1 0] with [x y 0 0 0], set it equal to 2

#

take the dot product of [1 1 0 0 -1] with [x y 0 0 0], set it equal to 1

#

two equations, two unknowns

#

solve for x and y

thorny sorrel
#

OH shiii

#

so i can row reduce

#

and then just put randoms for the frees

pallid halo
#

yep

#

correct!

5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
lunar token
#

not sure what its asking

trail ingot
#

it wants you to, for each k between 0 and n, count how many subsets there are of S with size k that don't contain {1,2}

lunar token
#

isnt it 1 to n

trail ingot
#

i dunno, it's not clear

lunar token
#

and without containing that set wouldnt it just be 2^n - 1

trail ingot
#

no

#

{1,2,3,4} has {1,2} as a subset for example

lunar token
#

oh

trail ingot
#

and you're supposed to count them for each k

#

not just total subsets of S

lunar token
#

what does each k mean

trail ingot
#

count subsets with size 0, with size 1, with size 2, with size 3 and so on separately

lunar token
#

is it 2^n-2

trail ingot
#

what is?

lunar token
#

the subsets that dont contain the elements 1,2

trail ingot
#

no

#

wait do you mean 2^(n-2)? still no though

lunar token
#

ye

trail ingot
#

i'm guessing you were thinking of subsets of {3,4,5,...,n} but that wouldn't count example {1,3}

#

which doesn't have {1,2} as a subset

lunar token
#

yeah

trail ingot
#

and still you seem to be just trying to count total subsets

#

but you need to count them for each size

lunar token
#

is it not what its asking

lunar token
#

what dsoe taht mean

#

like how do you k its asking this

trail ingot
#

it says
How many subsets of S have size k and do not have {1,2} as a subset?
but you are treating it like
How many subsets of S do not have {1,2} as a subset?

#

it wants you to count the subsets of an arbitrary size k

lunar token
#

oh

#

n - 2 choose k-2

#

how many ways to choose n as a subset of size k excluding 1 and 2

lunar token
#

so n choose k - (n -2 choose k-2)

trail ingot
#

yea i think so

#

well just gotta be careful with k < 2 or n < 2 ig

#

but otherwise yea

trail ingot
#

what is (n -2 choose k-2) when k < 2 or n < 2?

#

it's probably not even a detail you're expected to deal with

#

and i think it's ok anyway for any n and k if you define choose the right way with negative numbers and 0s and stuff

#

i would just ignore me

lunar token
#

idek what that means

trail ingot
#

lol just ignore me

99.99% (99% * 101)
99.96% (98% * 102)
99% (90% * 110)
96% (80% * 120)
98% (70% * 140)
105% (50% * 210)
105% (35% * 300)

I may misunderstand the formula as I'm not a stats student

#

Second Query: How much of your capital would you invest at any give time?

For example, the venture enterprise bond you're getting 2.1x return. So you could start with 10% of your portfolio and invest that 10 times, which I believe is better than 100% 1 time. Is that true?

In probability theory, the Kelly criterion (or Kelly strategy or Kelly bet) is a formula for sizing a bet. The Kelly bet size is found by maximizing the expected value of the logarithm of wealth, which is equivalent to maximizing the expected geometric growth rate. Assuming that the expected returns are known, the Kelly criterion leads to higher...

#

And yes, your EVs seem to be correct

verbal lava
#

Is that correct?

,w 0.35 - 0.65/2

potent lotusBOT
potent smelt
#

Looks good to me @verbal lava

#

You'll want to read the section labeled proof to find the expectation value to choose between the two scenarios, also if you can make multiple investments simultaneously, this can change which one is better

verbal lava
potent smelt
#

So if you can make simultaneous bets (betting 40 times on the risky investment, for instance) this might be both safer, and faster than betting just once

#

You'll need to work out the expectation value

verbal lava
#

Sorry I meant you can invest in both of the last two options

potent smelt
#

Oh, then yeah, you'll want to calculate the expectation of doing both.

#

Simultaneously

#

And find the correct proportion, this would be an optimization in two variables.

#

let the speed be x km/h

#

the fast speed in the first half

#

so carlos cycles for 2 hours at x

#

then for 3 hours at x-10

mortal spindle
#

yes

fringe reef
#

awesome

mortal spindle
#

would we make a equatoin then subsitiute

fringe reef
#

yes

#

what's the formula for distance

mortal spindle
#

d=s*t

fringe reef
#

yep

fringe reef
#

so you can just add them together

#

makes sense?

mortal spindle
#

so 2x*3(x-10)=90??

fringe reef
#

replace the * with +

#

then yes

mortal spindle
#

then just solve for x?

fringe reef
#

yes

#

that will be your answer

mortal spindle
#

why would we add

fringe reef
#

2x+3(x-10)=90

#

2x is the distance travelled in the first part

#

3(x-10) is the distance travelled after speed changed

#

the total distance is 90

#

so we can just add them

mortal spindle
#

oh ty

#

bcs the overall distance of the trip is 90 and we have already stated that x is the speed

fringe reef
#

yes

#

so solve $2x+3(x-10)=90$

potent lotusBOT

oof

#

i don't know shares/dividend problems

#

mortal spindle
#

wt abt this

fringe reef
#

let a be the number of students in class A

#

then the number of student in class B is 40-a

mortal spindle
#

yep

fringe reef
#

cordial per student in class A is thus 6/a

#

and cordial per student in class B is thus 5/(40-a)

#

now we know that each person in class A got twice the amount each person got in B

fringe reef
mortal spindle
fringe reef
#

you need the number of students in class A

#

which is the variable a

mortal spindle
fringe reef
#

no

#

$\frac{6}{a} = 2\cdot \frac{5}{40-a}$

potent lotusBOT
#

artemetra

fringe reef
#

this is the equation

#

cordiol per person in class A is twice as much as cordiol per person in class B

#

@mortal spindle does that make sense?

mortal spindle
#

yes

fringe reef
#

great

mortal spindle
#

do u have any tips on worded problems

#

its my weakest area in maths

fringe reef
#

practice tbh

fringe reef
#

no one likes thinking lol

fringe reef
#

oh and thinking what would make more sense within the context of the problem

#

so if you get that Billy had -42,000 apples then something's gotta be wrong

#

we have three informations given

#

from each, we can set up an equation

mortal spindle
#

i have done that but it doenst work

#

when i substitute

compact drum
#

can you show your work?

mortal spindle
#

i did sa=50-f

#

Su=80-sa

#

i rearranged it

#

but didnt work

compact drum
#

50 more people attended on saturday than on friday

#

so let's say we know that 100 people went there on friday, how many went on saturday?

mortal spindle
#

150

compact drum
#

yes

#

you did: Fr + 50

#

so Sa=Fr+50

#

not with the minus

#

same goes for the other equation

#

Su=Sa+80

#

and the third equation is just that the sum of all three is 540

mortal spindle
#

wont there be two unknowns/

compact drum
#

well

#

we have three unknowns

#

Fr, Sa, Su

#

but also three equations

mortal spindle
compact drum
#

yep

#

what you could do here is rewrite the first one to Fr=Sa-50

#

that way we can input the two equations into the third

#

which will then only depend on Sa

mortal spindle
#

so we finding Sa?

compact drum
#

we are finding all of them

#

oh wait

#

yeah we only need Fr, but might as well get them all

#

you know? gotta catch'em all

#

to get Fr, we need Sa, and Sa is pretty straight forward to get

#

you could also rewrite them to:
Fr=540-Sa-Su
Fr=540-(Fr+50)-(Sa+80)
Fr=540-Fr-50-(Fr+50+80)
...

sudden nebula
#

Why is this wrong? I was helping someone and I thought this was fine..

carmine sorrel
#

the numerator is indeterminant the way you factored it, you get 0*(infinity) inside the root

calm coralBOT
#

@sudden nebula Has your question been resolved?

sudden nebula
#

Does that mean 0/0 or infin / infin

carmine sorrel
#

those are common indeterminant forms, yeah.

sudden nebula
#

So what's the problem rn

carmine sorrel
#

0 * (infinity) is also indeterminant. It isn't 0

sudden nebula
#

No way

#

I thought infin * 0 was 0

carmine sorrel
#

nope.

sudden nebula
#

Dang

#

Well that fixes that ty

#

What would have been a more appropriate way to factor

carmine sorrel
#

you don't need to factor, but if you want to, factor the x out.

#

so you get x(9 + 1/x^2) inside the root

sudden nebula
#

Hmmm

#

Oh that just gives you infinity

#

So the limit is infinitiy

#

hey guys, i'm trying to figure out how to integrate this but i'm just lost

blazing coyote
#

Hint:- The derivative of sin(x) is cos(x)

#

It's also a variable separable DE

ebon harbor
#

i'm still confused(not your fault) after my teacher explained it

#

she kinda just gave us the answer key and said "yeah"

blazing coyote
#

Are you familiar with variable seperable DEs

ebon harbor
#

yeah

blazing coyote
#

Can you re-write this after seperating variables then?

ebon harbor
#

cos/cosy * e^sinx/cosy

#

no

#

cause then cosy would be squared

#

cosy dy = cosxe^(sinx)

#

damn im stupid

blazing coyote
#

$\cos\left(x\right)e^{\sin\left(x\right)}dx=\cos\left(y\right)dy$

potent lotusBOT

Why am. I here

blazing coyote
#

yeah

#

can you do it from here?

ebon harbor
#

yup 😂

#

thank you so much!

blazing coyote

np

it's either A or B

how do we know which one it is?

plain moss
#

for this derivative

drifting seal
#

yes

plain moss
#

Would I do it like this? I’m thinking

#

Hard

drifting seal
#

what am i looking at?

plain moss
#

Just guide me pls

drifting seal
#

what’s f(x)

plain moss
#

Oh nothing

drifting seal
#

what’s the derivative of 3h(x)

plain moss
#

sorry wrong questions posted above

#

finsihed that one

drifting seal
#

oh

plain moss
#

sorry

drifting seal
#

ok

#

no worries

#

so product rule with 3 functions

#

do u know how to do that

plain moss
drifting seal
#

essentially take the derivative of one and multiply the regular functions for the other two

#

and add up all the ways

#

with each function being differentiated

#

yea or that

#

if we have

#

f g and h

#

then it’s ghf’+fgh’+fhg’

plain moss
#

if i do this way

#

then multiply the first one as is

#

Much worse way then u explained tbh

#

going to do it ur way

#

correct?

drifting seal
#

it works still

drifting seal
plain moss
#

gotcha appreciate it

plain moss
calm coralBOT
plain moss
#

is the top function like 2x^3*k(x)

#

because i was taking it like that

#

but book takes it as one function

#

is the outcome the same? or is book method better (probably it is)?

drifting seal
#

what was their method?

plain moss
pallid halo
#

that's true as far as it goes

drifting seal
#

they’d still do product rule

pallid halo
#

but they'll need to use the product formula again on that first factor

drifting seal
#

doesn’t matter

plain moss
#

Tbf I’m confused on this here’s my work

#

i started foiling

#

but then realized thats hella wrong

#

since they are being added

#

i cant foil it

drifting seal
#

hmmm y did u get /(3x+2)^2

#

y did u rewrite it like that

plain moss
#

quotient rule

drifting seal
#

before differentiating

plain moss
#

no?

#

oh idk i just write it

#

shouldnt do it?

#

leave it till the last step?

drifting seal
#

u did 2x^3k(x)(3x+2)/(3x+2)^2

#

u didn’t differentiate yet

#

u essentially added an extra 3x+2

#

that only makes it more complicated

plain moss
#

oh really?

#

how should i begin then?

drifting seal
#

yea u square the denominator when doing the quotient rule

#

not before differentiating

#

u just manipulated the expression

drifting seal
#

then use product rule

plain moss
#

i just cant see the difference each time

#

i just get stuck to being used one

drifting seal
#

wdym

plain moss
#

like for this they used it as different

#

each to their own right

drifting seal
#

for quotient rule

#

it’s (low d high - high d low)/low^2

#

low is the denominator

#

high is the numerator

plain moss
#

cuz u see, 2x^3 is being multiplied to k(x)

drifting seal
#

which is 2x^3 k(x)

#

low is 3x+2

#

the denominator

plain moss
#

ok so i got a question here ok

drifting seal
#

ok

plain moss
#

so is thing wrong?

#

yes it is right

#

i think i see what i am doing it wrong

drifting seal
#

ur all over the place

plain moss
#

i got the funcdamentals all worng for quotient rule

drifting seal
#

u always treat the numerator and denominator as one function

#

respectively

drifting seal
#

if we have f(x)=x/y

plain moss
drifting seal
#

then f’(x)=(yx’-xy’)/y^2

drifting seal
#

they each have their own

plain moss
#

gotcha

drifting seal
#

function

plain moss
#

okok

#

okok i see

#

so it can never be that it is like

#

h(x) = f(x) * j(x) / g(x) right... since the quotient rules is only this

#

three different functions

drifting seal
#

think of it like f’(x)=(denominator)(derivative of numerator)-(numerator)(derivative of denominator)/(denominator squared)

plain moss
#

so it can never be that it is like

h(x) = f(x) * j(x) / g(x) right...

drifting seal
#

wdym

#

whats h

plain moss
#

just gave it a different name

drifting seal
plain moss
#

sorry mate im just getting rid of all my mathematical brain damage, that gets in the way of my thinking while doing these questions

drifting seal
#

lol no worries

plain moss
#

my question is, it cant be like that right

drifting seal
plain moss
drifting seal
#

wdym

#

sure it can

#

it can be fgh*k…/j

#

u just take the derivative of the numerator

#

and denominator

#

and use quotient rule

plain moss
#

no matter how big it is, its one function

#

the numerator?

#

it can be like

drifting seal
#

anything

#

it can be arctan(x^3)(ln(3x)(x^5/2)

#

doesn’t matter

plain moss
#

the top is always one function? yes?

#

DAMN. i overthink.

drifting seal
#

yea but the derivative may need product rule

plain moss
#

gotcha

#

damn. man.

#

but then inside for example f(x) then?

#

whats f(x) and whats g(x)

#

given that

#

since we also have the denominator to bring it upwards

drifting seal
#

wdym

#

there’s no denominator here

#

this is product rule

plain moss
#

but when we implement it on the f(x) what...

#

oh....

#

this is wrong ehhhhhhhh

#

clearly stated that bottom is g(x)

drifting seal
#

where’s the lnx

#

from

plain moss
#

now on the above function how do we do the product rule

plain moss
#

i jsut made it by example

#

cuz it could be as big as possible right

drifting seal
#

oh ok so product rule

#

the same rule holds

#

with 2,3,4 doesn’t matter

#

how many functions

#

derivative of one

#

multiply by all other functions

#

and add up all iterations

#

with each function getting differentiated

plain moss
#

so in this case for example

[6x^2 * ..... ] + [k'(x) * .... ] + [j'(x) * ......] +

#

bro i aint gonna lie all this u did for me is gonna acc help me soo much

#

thank you for reall holy

#

helped me open one side of my brain hopefully i can acc get this shit through my head

#

i think this prlly jsut the last thing knief

remote mural
calm coralBOT
remote mural
#

can anyone explain why there is a k

tepid anvil
remote mural
#

what

#

how do u know that

tepid anvil
#

We know that the density at any point is proportional to its distance from the axis of the cylinder $r$.

potent lotusBOT
#

thedude365

remote mural
#

ye

tepid anvil
#

Since it's proportional, we can introduce a proportionality constant to make an equation for the density at a given point $\rho = kr$

potent lotusBOT
#

thedude365

remote mural
#

how were u able to a decipher that we need that constant

#

cuz when we do center of mass and stuff like there where they give us the density function

#

we don't need k

tepid anvil
#

Whenever you're given that some variable is proportional to another, this means there's a proportionality constant. For example, if you're told that $ Q \propto T^2$, that's the same as saying $Q = cT^2$, where $c$ is some constant

potent lotusBOT
#

thedude365

remote mural
#

so for example when we have a problem involving mass

#

and they say constant density

#

then we can just use k/p

tepid anvil
#

Yes, where $k$ or $\rho$ is constant

potent lotusBOT

serene bloom

ok, so let's start with theoretical probability

subtle turtle
#

okayyy

serene bloom
#

theoretically, since all 6 sides have an equal chance of getting rolled, what's the probability of each one getting rolled?

subtle turtle
#

1 out 6?

serene bloom
#

yeah

#

good

subtle turtle
#

so i write 1 over 6?

serene bloom
#

mhm

subtle turtle
#

okay

and then experimental probability is the actual probability you got in the experiment

#

lets use the first one as an example

subtle turtle

wait so for

#

2

serene bloom
#

mhm

subtle turtle
#

is 2 over 6

serene bloom
#

no it's also 1/6

subtle turtle
#

and 3 over 6 and so on?

serene bloom

think of it like this

#

the chances of getting a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 are equal

right?

cause it's a fair die

for probabilitry?

#

if you said that the probability of rolling 2 was 2/6, but 1 was 1/6, that would imply that it's more probable to get a 2, right? but we know that's not true

subtle turtle
#

ohhh okay

#

so what would 2 be?

#

1 over 6

serene bloom
#

right

subtle turtle
#

for all of them?

serene bloom
#

they should all be 1/6 mhm

subtle turtle
#

since its fair for all

serene bloom
#

yep

subtle turtle
#

ohhh okayyyy

#

got it

#

now for experimental?

#

how would that work?

serene bloom
#

yeah ok so

#

experimental probability uses the data you actually collected in the experiment

#

so it should roughly line up with your theoretical, but since there is random chance and error, it might not be exactly the same

subtle turtle
#

so 6,4,3,6,7,4

serene bloom
#

thats how much times you rolled each one, yes

subtle turtle
serene bloom
#

to calculate probability what do you do?

subtle turtle
#

since we rolled the dice 30 times

serene bloom
#

mhm

#

so what would be the experimental probability?

subtle turtle
#

thats what im stuck on

serene bloom
#

you can think of probability as asking the question "if i do something this many times, how much times will i get this result?" and then write it as a fraction

#

so

#

using the first one as an example

#

you rolled the die 30 times

subtle turtle
#

yes

serene bloom
#

and got the number 1 6 times

subtle turtle
#

yeah

#

so 16 over 30?

serene bloom
#

you mean 6 right

subtle turtle
#
  1. sorry
serene bloom
#

yeah yeah exactly

#

and that would just simplify to 1/5

#

in general experimental probability is [how many times you got the desired result]/[how many times you conducted the experiment]

subtle turtle
#

so the experiimental would be 6 over 30

#

and 4 over 30

serene bloom
#

mhm

subtle turtle
#

and so on?

serene bloom
#

now try for the second collumn

subtle turtle
#

wait so

serene bloom
#

mhm?

subtle turtle
#

kinda not getting it

#

so for the frist experimental question it would be

#

6 over 30 right?

serene bloom
#

yes

subtle turtle
#

and then it would be 4 over 30

serene bloom
#

yes

subtle turtle
#

then 3 over 30?

serene bloom
#

yes

subtle turtle
#

and then 6 over 30?

serene bloom
#

mhm

subtle turtle
#

and then 7 over 30

serene bloom
#

yep

subtle turtle
#

and 4 over 30

serene bloom
#

just remember to simplify your fractions

subtle turtle
#

ohhhhh okay

#

and how much would i need to simplify?

serene bloom
#

down to its simplest form

#

so that you cant simplify it any more

subtle turtle
#

so for 6 over 30 i can do 1 over 5?

serene bloom
#

yes

subtle turtle
#

and for 4 over 30 it would be 2 over 15?

serene bloom
#

mhm

subtle turtle
#

okay

#

i got it

serene bloom
#

great

subtle turtle
#

but for 7 over 30

#

you cant?

#

right

serene bloom
#

exactly

#

cause there are no common factors between 7 and 30

subtle turtle
#

okayyy bro

#

im done i can go to sleep stress freeee

#

thankkk youu so muchhhh

#

brooooo

serene bloom
#

no problem man

subtle turtle
#

wait what grade are yoou in?

serene bloom
#

im in 8th, but ive been learning some calculus and trying to do linalg

subtle turtle
#

thankksss bro

#

i gotta go to bed tho

#

but thanks alottt bro

serene bloom

Does this imply that the matrix is linearally independent?

spark stratus
remote mural
spark stratus
#

you mean the only solution to Ax = 0

remote mural
#

yeah

spark stratus
#

but the usual way is "the matrix is invertible" instead of "the matrix is linearly independent"

lyric ice
#

hello

calm coralBOT
lyric ice
#

so for (a)

#

i have

#

x = (2,0)
y = (0,0)

#

what exactly do i test for symmetry

remote mural
#

Graph your equations first

lyric ice
#

or how

#

uh

#

how would i do that

remote mural
#

Do you have a graphing calculator?

lyric ice
#

yes

remote mural
#

Pull it out, is it ti-84 plus?

lyric ice
#

yeah

#

84 plus ce

#

do i just put the intercepts into the equation

remote mural
#

Don't graph any of your equations yet

#

solve for x on the second equation(b)

lyric ice
#

-5

#

x = -5 for second equation

remote mural
#

if u can send pictures, that would be helpful, since i cant rn bc im on my laptop

lyric ice
#

0^2 = 0

#

-5 = x

#

im on pc i cant either

#

lol

remote mural
#

Also,

lyric ice
#

my brain is fried

#

man

remote mural
#

You solved the seconf equation wrong

#

its okay

#

im here to help

lyric ice
#

wdym second equation

remote mural
#

equation b?

lyric ice
#

so its 4am now

#

and im tryna learn all this shit

lyric ice
#

for equation b

#

if i am solving for x int

#

set y = 0

#

x = (0)^2 - 5
x = -5

#

am i dumb

remote mural
#

No you're not solving for the intercepts yet

#

You're just solving for the equation first

lyric ice
#

wat

remote mural
#

You identify intercepts once you've graphed both equations.

lyric ice
#

okay so can we just scrap everything and start from scratch

remote mural
#

Yes

lyric ice
#

so lets look at (a)

remote mural
#

Don't freak out

#

Yes,

lyric ice
#

im freaking out

remote mural
#

That is an upside down parabola

lyric ice
#

i have like 3 hrs before i need to leave

remote mural
#

Equation a is an upside down parabola

#

Relax

lyric ice
#

yes

remote mural
#

You're not gonna learn anything if u panic

lyric ice
#

okay

remote mural
#

Okay, solve for y on equation b, it's because if you try to graph equation b on a calculator, there won't be an option for that. Solve for y on equation b

#

mb

#

its 1 am rn💀

lyric ice
#

wait i thought we were looking at a

#

ur good bro its 4am here

#

lol

remote mural
#

we don't need to look at a rn

lyric ice
#

okay

#

so
