Hey, I've been on this problem for hours and I'm just not coming onto the right answer
The angle of elevation from a point on the ground to the top of a pyramid is 38°20'. The angle of elevation from a point 160 feet farther back to the top of the pyramid is 25°40'. Find the height of the pyramid.
It's in the context of a trig class. There's a visual as well. I was wondering if someone could walk me through it?

Alternatively you could possibly define it using polynomials of the form $[P(x) = (x-r_1)(x-r_2)…(x-r_n)]$

Like is this a more set theoretic question or algebra question? What level of algebraic rigor does it want, or is it more towards set theoretic rigor?
If it’s set theory you could probably just take all polynomials in Pn with coefficients that satisfy the quadratic equation for x=1 and exclude them from Pn
If it’s algebra you could say for instance all polynomials (x-r1)(x-r2)•••(x-rn) such that rn ≠ 0 and all complex roots are present in conjugate pairs
But without context it’s hard to tell what the question is asking
Especially since it appears to be part of a larger problem

How do I find the domain and co domain in 2(d)?
is it just not the opposite of (c)?
what ???????
@teal moss Has your question been resolved?
the domain of (d) is the codomain of (c) and codomain of (c) is domain of (d)?
Yes
but when I tried graphing the inverse function, the domain seems to be different, it is not between 0 and sqrt(3/2)

John got these scores in his 4 seatworks. On the first one he got 76% the second he got 80% the third he got 82% and for fourth he got 90%, the seatworks are 20% of his final mark. If he gets 80% on his final exam which weighs 50% what will be his final average?
Need help with this problem
Solution and answrr
answer is 5
Oh ok how did u get?
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
huh
uh what
Not sure might be wrong but I think you first find average of the seat works then find it's 1/5th 20% then make the 80% of the final score 1/2(50%) and add them
I think yeah but before you add them you need to put them on the correct analogy of the final score given
Alright
Also the final exam and the seatworks add up to 70% not 100% of the final average
Ohh

x-2y+k=0 intersects circle x^2+y^2+2x-6y-30=0 at A and B, where AB = sqrt(80), what is k?
its more of a geometery question if you ask me
You must be a bot manager to use this command!
oof
i tried
subbing
the straightline equation into circle equation
then we have a quadratic equation in terms of y
it would get hellish 🙂
no i mean what have you tried ?
but anyways im interested in the geometry method
wait ill just send a picture
nvm dont have phone with me
basically since the distance between roots is sqrt(discriminant)/a
i subbed the straight line equation into circle equation
then find sqrt(D)/a
but discriminant is negative
yeh because that distance is in a 2D plane
you are trying to find abs(x2 -x1)
but in 2D plane its sqrt((x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)
you could only use that if and only if your line was y= k
or x= k
you have R

I keep getting negative values when I apply the SA of revolution integral to a function
This is the function if yall need reference
pi * Integral from 5.94 to 3.336 of ((0.0821515 x^3 + 0.859522x^2 - 2.93095x + 7.55275)* (1+ (-0.2464545 x^2 +1.719044x-2.93095)^2)^1/2 dx
Yeah its a pain in the ass, I solved it using a GDC
But I'm getting a negative value
Am I supposed to just use a modulus sign or is there smthn more to it

Need help understanding P{X = n}. The experiment ends after n flips, but I still don't get why we don't include the *p.
I guess that would account for the (t,t,...,t,h)
but the (t,t,...,t,t) would be (1-p)^n
This is really the geometric distribution
Well sheldon ross doesn't do geom distribution until 4.8.1
what they did is this:
$(1-p)^n + (1-p)^{n-1}p = (1-p)^{n-1}(1-p+p)$
doaby
they really should've shown more steps but they're adding the probability of each of those 2 possible events
oh wow, Thanks! So then I must ask, what resources did you use to learn probability?
I really don't remember lol, I think I started off by watching khan academy since they give an intuition instead of focusing on memorization. Harvard lectures are good too but much more high level
I'm not much on books usually, but also practicing a lot helps
Ah, okay. I'll try khan academy too. Yeah I guess practicing on many problems is always gonna be the determining factor.
have a good one.

and no your derivatives are wrong if thats what u are asking
v' is fine, u' is not
sinx is not equal to cosx?

So I know that dy/dt = dx/dt * dy/dx
dy/dx = -4xsin4x + cos4x
The multiply by 3 and sub in x
But I did not get the same answer
what did you get
Well I got 3.45 to 2dp
The answer was given in exact value
sin(5pi/4)=-1/sqrt(2)=cos(5pi/4)
try working with that
I'm not sure what this is for
Is it dy/dx
?
no
im saying its useful for you to evaluate dy/dt
you have -12xsin(4x)+3cos(4x)
and x=5pi/16
i am saying that
Yeah I got the same thing
I couldn't get it alll they way down to the answer form but it didn't ask for it in exact form in the question
So I got the equivalent to the answer
Thanks

helloo
Im having some trouble changing from f_x(x,y) to f(x,y)
idk man its confusiing
just this one question my brain is kinda fried cause im integrating, and then differentiating, and then differentiating with respect to some variable
idk man
wdym changing
q5
not sure how they got f(x,y)=ye^xy + g(y)
😭idkkk the other examples made sense my brain is just not working for this one??
the book integrated with respect to x
so just the same way the derivative of derivative of a constant is 0
the derivative of g(y) with respect to x is 0 since g(y) is a constant in terms of x
suppose g(y) = y^2 + siny
what is the partial derivative of g(y) with respect to x ?
e^x
ok
suppose now you started from fx = e^x
then you know f = e^x + something that didnt depend on x
aka
f = e^x + g(y)
ok
check by differentiating both sides by x
h(y) is a constant with respect to x
just like in single variable as c was the constant
a constant with respect to x could be anything that doesn't depend on x

Hi, can anyone help me with this question. I have to use multivariable calculus. I tried to use partial derivaties on S, but it didn't work. Any other ideas?
Lagrange multipliers https://math.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Calculus/Vector_Calculus_(Corral)/02%3A_Functions_of_Several_Variables/2.07%3A_Constrained_Optimization_-_Lagrange_Multipliers
So basically the function ur tryna maximize is V(l, w, h) = lwh
And the constraint is (lw + wh +hl) = S/2
S is a constant
yeah
we havent been told about lagrange multipliers though
hmm
only other way I can think of is intuition 
mainly that a cube would maximize the volume for a given surface area
Cus symmetry shenanigans
If it were a rectangle u could use single var calc hmmm
Wait
Maybe AM-GM?
I don't know what that is

Given the information $\sec(\theta)=\frac{-3}{2}$ find the exact value of the five remaining trigonometric functions
guy
im pretty sure one of them is $cos(\theta)=\frac{-2}{3}$ but im not sure ohw to find the rest
guy
also its probably importantt to mention pi < theta < 3pi/2
this is true because sec is the reciprocal of cos
use pythagoras to find the value of sintheta
yes thats what i was thinking
but im not quite sure
which quadrant this is in
so idk which number is negative
do you know that sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1?
yes
now find tantheta by pluggin sin/cos

hi
sin
Finally
What can I substitute for u here?
I tried u = 9-x² but im still ending up with
Dx = du/-2x
It's a trigonometric substitution
Your integral is of the form $\sqrt{a^2-x^2}$
TayBee
So you can make the substution $x=a \sin(\theta)$
TayBee
Same steps as standard integration by substitution, what do you get if you differentiate x=asin(theta)?
You should end up with $dx = 3\cos(\theta)d\theta$
TayBee
Substitute in and the rest is trig identities, so see how far you can get
Bit harsh of them to give you that integral if you haven't done trig substitutions yet lol
More simplistically, if the coefficeint of x^2 is 1:
Well first time for everything XD Once you've made that subtitution in your question, your first target after some simplifying is to end up with:
mhm
a sin theota would js be
a cos theta?
wait
would u use product rule
$\int 9\cos^2(\theta)d\theta$
no u wouldn't
TayBee
That's what you should aim for
(I've removed the limits as one problem at a time lol
So after you've substituted x=asin(theta) and substituted for dx, you have $\int \sqrt{9-[3\sin(\theta)]^2}\cdot 3\cos(\theta)d\theta$
TayBee
Do a little expanding and that's $\int \sqrt{9-9\sin^2(\theta)} \cdot 3\cos(\theta)d\theta$
TayBee
Now you can use your understanding of trig to simplify that square root
Ohhh
and a couple of lines later you should end up at this
Let me know once you've got that far (or if you've got completely stuck) then we'll see what to do next haha

Hi, can anyone help me with this one? The answer should be 0.085
how did you get 0.064
@leaden sandal Has your question been resolved?
what they mean is
70% of the phones are never submitted for repair, maybe they work forever or something
12% of the phones are replaced
18% are repaired
nothing happens with probability 0.4
Wait, where did 12% and 18% come from?
that's what happens when you separate 30 into 4:6
Answer is 0.085
you did it right otherwise, on your second attempt
yes
How^*
you just use the probability of the phone beng replaced
instead of 0.4 which corresponds to nothing

i don't know how to explain it
"that's what happens when you separate 30 into 4:6"
this isn't magic, you don't have to derive anything, it's common sense and multiplying numbers
The only reason I can think of on that is p(returned&replaced) = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12
if 7/90 of the cars in a town are white and 1/4 of white cars are trucks, then 7/360 of the cars are white trucks
we don't have a name for this

Hi guys can someone tell me where it went wrong
the ratio of the sides is not exactly the ratio of the volumes
How can I find the ratio to the volumes tho
try a simpler case: imagine a cube with side length s and a cube with side length s/2, what's the ratio of these volumes?
and the ratio would be the same for those pyramids, or any 3D shape

find the remainder when 1⁰+ 2¹+3²+4³+...+1001¹⁰⁰⁰ is divided by 3
I would suggest splitting it into (1+4^3+7^6+…)+(2^1+5^4+8^7+…)+(3^2+6^5+9^8+…) before taking mod 3
Can you like guess the answer?
wait so basically this is what you have
if the terms repeat as 1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,...
then the partial sums will be 1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,...
so work out where you are in that partial sum sequence
$$(\sum_{n = 1}^{1001} n^{n-1}) \text{mod 3}$$

Say you have that a_1b_1+a_2b_2=n where a_i and b_i are integers between 0 and 9. (How many/What are the) subsets of (a_1,a_2) exist such that we can choose certain b_i that produce all possible n within the bound of 0 and 9(a_1+a_2)? I was wondering about this, and sorry if this lacks mathematical clarity. I am never great at expressing myself
0<=n<=9(a_1+a_2)
so we pick certain b_i that can produce all the values of n within this range given the a_i we select
the b_i’s are confusing me still
let me write a possible interpretation of the problem and you tell me if it’s right
sure
fix a positive integer n. how many pairs (a_1,a_2) of integers are there with the following properties:
- 0 <= a_1, a_2 <= 9
- 0<=n<=9(a_1+a_2)
- there exist integers b_1, b_2 with 0 <= b_1, b_2 <= 9 and a_1b_1 + a_2b_2 = n
for example (2,1) works
produce all values of n?
i thought we were fixing n and counting the pairs (a_1,a_2)
sorry, what do u mean by this
i want to find all (a_1,a_2) pairs such that there exist b_i's which are integers between 0-9 that produce all values of n between 0 and 9(a_1+a_2)
so i want to fix (a_1, a_2) and see if it produces all values of n within the range by selecting b_i each time
oh ok i might get it now
that’s different than this
oh ok
let me try again
sorry .-.
lol dw
yep, sure
which pairs of integers (a_1,a_2) with 0 <= a_1, a_2 <= 9 have the following property?
for all integers n with 0<=n<=9(a_1+a_2), there exist integers b_1, b_2 with 0 <= b_1, b_2 <= 9 and a_1b_1 + a_2b_2 = n
yes, thats it

thank you
ok so for the problem…
if a_1 and a_2 are both even and greater than 0, they don’t have the property
see why?
yep
(0,1) and (1,0) have the property but if one of them is 0 and the other is greater than 1 then they don’t right?
(0,0) has it
yes
ok anything with 0 taken care of
this also taken care of
still lots left
yeah
well actually if a_1 and a_2 aren’t small it shouldn’t be possible to get small n’s right?
i was thinking that if a_1 divides a_2 or the other way round, it wouldnt work as well, right?
yes, i think so
yea if they are both 2 or greater you can’t get n = 1
ok that’s much stronger than this lol
yes, thats true
that covers a lot then
what’s left?
one of a_1,a_2 are 1 and the other is at least 1?
i think we got everything else
yes, i think so
hmmm, could we check
kinda like that other problem
yeah
say a_1 = 1 and a_2 is whatever. we can get 0, a_2, 2*a_2, 3*a_2, …, 9*a_2 by setting b_1 = 0 and ranging b_2 over 0 through 9
and we can fill in the gaps with 1*b_1
yes this should make sense
so i think my answer is:
(a_1,a_2) has the property if and only if [[a_1 = 1 or a_2 = 1] or [a_1 = a_2 = 0]]
yes, that should be the answer i think too
i also have a similar question
which pairs of integers (a_1,a_2,a_3) with 0 <= a_1, a_2,a_3 <= 9 have the following property?
for all integers n with 0<=n<=9(a_1+a_2+a_3), there exist integers b_1, b_2 with 0 <= b_1, b_2, b_3 <= 9 and a_1b_1 + a_2b_2 +a_3b_3 = n

omg, so sorry .-.
lol
so if i’m understanding you’ve been wanting to generalize your problem from earlier this whole time 
yeah, that was what i was trying to get at lol
having a 1 might be the key thing no matter how many terms
i thought that by doing smaller cases, it would be easy to generalise through intuition
yea that’s good
yes, that was what i was thinking
you need a 1 to get the = n condition when n = 1
and if you have a 1, you can “fill in the gaps”
that was the key to why this is an if and only if here
and i thiiiiiink it generalizes
i see how
i was wondering if we could always fill in the gaps
i could see how it would generalise
should be able to, you can build up to 9(a_2 + a_3 + … + a_k) by increasing the b_i’s one by one and and the gaps will be no bigger than 9
with a_1 = 1 ig i should say
hmmm, thats interesting
now finally could we count the number of pairs that do exist
so if there are k terms, we want the number of k-tuples (a_1, a_2, …, a_k) that have at least one 1
yes, and do we include the (0,0) case
plus an extra one for all 0s case
ok
we could also just count with no 0s though
0s basically just make it so that there are fewer terms
might be best to assume all coordinates are nonzero
so that we actually have k terms
yea i think it’s better this way and doesn’t change any results found earlier
ok
b_i’s can be 0 but make the a_i’s nonzero
so there are 9^k possible tuples
first coordinate has 9 options (1 through 9), second has 9 etc
yes
wait, is it fine if you could list all the tuples that work for k=2
im still a bit confused
how about (0,0)?
yeah
and (0,1) is like having only 1 term
hmmm true
so for k=2 it would be 20 possible tuples i think
so this should be 10^k - 9^k + 1 now i think
the + 1 being the all 0 tuple
agrees with our answer for k = 2
wait, could u list the number of tuples for k=3
,calc 10^3 - 9^3 + 1
Result:
272

what condition?
was it that all a_i=0 or one of a_i=1 and the others could be anything
a tuple has the property iff at least one coordinate is 1, or they are all 0
so yes
oh my bad, sorry .-.
they get hard to list nicely because you can have various amounts of 1s
yeah, i should have known
for k = 3 they take the forms
0 0 0
1 _ _
_ 1 _
_ _ 1
1 1 _
_ 1 1
1 _ 1
1 1 1
with the empty slots being not 1
darn
for k=3, i was thinking of (0,0,0), then the number of (1,blank,blank) tuples which in total is 3*100+1 minus the number of repeats
this is about as nicely as i can list them
yes, thank you so much. i very much appreciate your help and the time u have taken to help me
yes, im amazed by it too
so here the number would be 1+81+81+81+9+9+9+1=243+27+2=272
yep!
same as what my formula proposed
oh ok i think i get it now
yes, very much so
your formula should be correct
and if you want to describe them explicitly rather than just give the number this is a good way to do so
just gets a little messy with all the ways to have 1s with larger k
yes, i see
thank you so much for your help!

how do i do this
1,2,3,3
1,1,2,3
what have you tried
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
that should be the main columns
that is not a solution
i tried putting the numbers on 1 side n amount if times on the other
then put them in
and idk how that is helping
ig we could do it using basic combinatorics
try using this, put it in the form of a multiplication table. but add the entries
Like this?
one would be horizontal and the other vertical
move the column to the left
ohk
you should have a 4 by 4 table to put in stuff
no, add them
ohk
basically try adding each of the numbers from the corressponding columns
alrr
you want to see what proportion of those are 4 or more
oooo
since 16 is the total number of sums
thanks bros
and 11 is the total number of sums more than 3
yeah

how do i find the domain and range of a circle
do you see that 9 is a perfect square root
hint: the domain and range for any circle is always becomes the same
in x^2+y^2=9, as x^2 and y^2 both are positive and hence cannot take values beyond 9
so what do you think the domain and range will be for this function
correct

how do i find the domain and range
ive tried already and got it wrong (i got solution)
my answer was
domain: $(-\infty, 0]$
pixel
range: $[2, \infty)$
pixel
try using derivatives to find range

Hello
I am confused as too why you can use the upper bound when proving that a function is an little of another function
this is what i am in particular talking about
here they are showing that the limit of the upper bound approaches 0
and that somehow shows that the original must also be 0
?
i tried showing that this works with the epsilon definition of the little o definition
but so far, it doesn't make much sense
any help would be great

"A series $\sum_{}^{} a_n$ converges if its sequence ${a_n}$ converges. "
Why is this the case? Taking $a_n = 2 - (1/n^2)$ as example, doesn't this sequence converge because its terms approach 2 as n approaches infinity? But the series are definitely divergent right?
seinng
it's moreso
series converges only if sequence converges to 0
ohh, so it's if and only if the sequence converges to 0, not any other number?
not iff
if the sequence doesn't converge to 0, the series doesn't converge
oh oops, not the other way around
for convergence of the series, the sequence must go to 0
But it is not a sufficient condition

@celest flower your image is different from the question. I'm going to answer the question rather than the image.
Also there does not seem to actually be a sought value.
Please clarify
Yes
And we have two angles, so we can make two right triangles
But if we want to know, for instance, how high up the balcony is, we would need to also know how far away Romeo is from the wall
yes alpha is 33,7degree and beta is 46,8 degree
Well, hmmm
So actually thinking about it you might be able to figure it out
So your first triangle is the 33.7 degree one.
and we dont know how far away he is we just know this two angles, his height, and that the like balcony thing is 1.2m high
Let the base of the triangle be b
This base is shared between both triangles
Let the height of the shorter triangle be h.
This means the height of the higher triangle is h + 1.2
yes
So we have
tan 33.7 = h/b
tan 46.8 = (h+1.2)/b
yes
You can solve these two equations simultaneously for h and b
And your answer is h + 1.75, the height of the bottom of the balcony, plus the offset from Romeo's eyes
you mean equaation system
Yes
ok i'll try it brb
$tan(33,7) = h/b \ b = \frac{h}{tan(33,7)} \ tan(46,8) = \frac{h + 1,2}{\frac{h}{tan(33,79)}}$
like this?
Kraut
@potent smelt
Ok, you should be able to solve that for h.
$tan(46,8) = \frac{(h + 1,2) \cdot tan(33,79}{h} \ 1,06h = 0,669h + 0.803 \ 0,395h = 0,803 \2,02 = h$
Kraut
but sadly this is false
oh wait
the man
i come to 3,78m the solution book says 3,760m
@potent smelt is this correct
This is close enough, the errors are in the second decimal place and likely due to rounding

How can i find sin and cos of alpha
Alpha is the opposite angle of 6 meters btw
!original
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
Its in portuguese
Ill translate
In an ABC triangle, which AC is 8m, BC is 6m, opposite angle of 8m is alpha, opposite angle of 6m is beta, and beta equals 60°, find senalpha and cosalpha
opposite angle of 6m is beta
in ur diagram, opposite angle of 8m is beta
$sen\alpha = \sin\alpha$?
never heard the term sen before
JustToPro
Sen is sin
ah ok
In portuguese its seno so it turns into sen
so ig we first need to find alpha , what do u think we can do to find alpha?
seems good
Then sen is 4.sqrt3/6
yes
Yes but usually i do it by seeing like sin is 60 degress cos is 30 degrees
But with this i dont know the angle
u only need to find sin alpha
Sin30=cos60
not the angle
if they wanted to find angle then they would have said to find alpha
u can find cos 2 ways
- taking sin inverse to get alpha then then finding cos alpha
- sin^2alpha + cos^2 alpha = 1
OR cosalpha = sqrt{1 - sin^2 alpha)
We actually learned the second way
Sinx squared + cosx squared= 1
But i actually didnt think about it
both ways give same answer
4/3
So 4/3. cosalpha squared=1
But it is already over 1
4/3
So how do i do i do it
Oh
this means that the angle lies in quadrant number 2 (if u learnt about those)
But wait
How does cos alpha squared turn into negative 1/3
We dont even know imaginary numbers rn
wait
,w arcsin ((2 sqrt3) / 3)
If we used the other triangle
Cos alpha would be 0.592014313
I think its the right answer
the other triangle isnt correct tho
It is i think
not according to the question
A opposite b c
What is wrong about it (not trying to be mean i just didnt see something wrong)
what u translated said
beta is opposite to 6m
The -- Abovee the letters is a line
The ^ on the letter means opposite of the side
So alpha is in opposite angle of side a
ok this triangle is correct
u translated it wrong
what u said was opposite angle of 6m is beta
Yes
my bad also for not reading the question
btw i gtg

Oh so they factored out the 2? And e^sin2x?
here u can factor out 2 , e^(sin2x) and ln(cos2x) from the numerator which cancels with 1 of the ln(cos2x) in denominator
usually just factor out the common stuff and leave it be

So It is 2^n(14•2)
Can I rewrite that as 14 •2(n+n)?
no
Do you know a good factoring video I can check?
idk about a good video man maybe ask someone else here or consult your teacher
Can you write on you note book and show me yourself doing the factoring?
