#

on a right triangle, the side that goes diagonally from the other two is the hypotenuse

#

it's always the side opposite of the right angle

swift storm
#

alright thanks

#

btw

#

i didn't know that i had to use pythogoras

#

how would i know to use it?

keen grail
#

whenever you have two sides of a right triangle and you're asked to find the other you'd use the phythogoras theorem

swift storm
#

i mean i used the top triangle theorem to solve B)

#

and thought maybe i could do the same for a 😭

keen grail
#

did you get 9.818181 for part B

#

or something close to that

swift storm
#

yes

q 7 i have found alpha which is 2 but i cant find what beta is

velvet osprey
#

$\frac{2}{\beta} + 2 + 2\beta = \frac{21}{2}$

potent lotusBOT
weary bane
#

ye

#

i tried taking the 2 to the rhs and multiply by b

velvet osprey
#

by beta

#

but yes, so far so good.

weary bane
#

ye

#

i was supposed to, oh

#

so 2+2betasquared=8.5 Beta

velvet osprey
#

use ^ for exponents.

#

like this: beta^2

#

but yes, $2 \beta^2 - \frac{17}{2} \beta + 2 = 0$.

potent lotusBOT
weary bane
#

o i had to take it to the lhs

#

now quadratic or something

exotic hedge
#

I'm getting an irrational number

#

For that

velvet osprey
exotic hedge
#

b = (±(sqrt(13))/2

#

Is that correct

#

Or did I go wrong

#

Ob wait

#

I did go wrong

#

One sec

#

4b^2 - 17b + 4 = 0

#

I got this

weary bane
#

?

exotic hedge
#

It's factorable

#

beta = 1/4 or beta = 4

weary bane
#

ok lemme c

#

why did i get an eigth or 2

exotic hedge
#

wat

velvet osprey
exotic hedge
#

This my work

#

I took beta = x

weary bane
#

i didnt double does that change the result

exotic hedge
#

No

weary bane
#

but if i double my answer its right

#

ill send work

#

sorry if its messy

velvet osprey
#

8.5 * 2 is not 19

exotic hedge
#

I just noticed that too

#

8.5 x 2 is 17

weary bane
#

ye ik thats for another equation

#

from vieta formulas 2 equation

velvet osprey
#

??

exotic hedge
#

Wat

weary bane
#

-c/a

velvet osprey
#

dude you made an arithmetic error.

#

simple as.

exotic hedge
#

Yea

exotic hedge
weary bane
#

ye thats not part of the first equation

exotic hedge
#

there's only one equation

#

Wdym

weary bane
#

as you can see i still used the 8.5

exotic hedge
#

Ok wait

velvet osprey
exotic hedge
weary bane
#

last line

exotic hedge
#

This is supposed to be -17

weary bane
#

gimme a sec

velvet osprey
#

that and you for whatever reason transmogrified the 19 back into 8.5 somehow.

#

you're making a right mess of your arithmetic here

exotic hedge
#

bruh

weary bane
#

o shoot i c the problem

swift epoch
#

use split middle term method

weary bane
#

2*2 is not 8

velvet osprey
#

the denominator should be 2*2 aka 4. not 8

exotic hedge
#

Ye

swift epoch
#

it will make it more easy

# hybrid zephyr

im not sure how the hint is useful but this is my logic
we can we write it as (z^5-1)/z-1 = (z^2+az+1)(z^2+bz+1)
z^5-1/z-1=. (1+z+z^2+z^3+z^4)
now compare and find a,b values

yeah that's what I did but I figured it would be best to use the hint so idk

compact totem
#

i get its a formula but i dont understand how y got replaced with 10 or 20 replaced 270

inner zealot
compact totem
#

bless you kookie

#

so do i make assumptions ? im trying do this on my own and im so confused on where to start aside from pluging value you

#

so 80e^kt

#

then it be 80e^k1599

inner zealot
#

Once you find the k constant, you would then use 80 for the initial quantity with t equal to 9000 to find the remaining quantity after 9000 years.

compact totem
#

to cancel or resolve e it would be ln?

inner zealot
#

To find the remaining quantity or to find k?

compact totem
#

k

inner zealot
#

Yes, you would use ln() to get rid of the exponent.

compact totem
#

so it would be ln(80e^k(1599) ?

inner zealot
#

No.

compact totem
#

it has to be a value of something? cant it be y = 80 e^1599k and you divide both side by 80 and do the ln?

inner zealot
#

That should be 80 e^-1599k. The negative sign is necessary to indicate exponential decay.

compact totem
#

I’m assuming this isn’t possible

inner zealot
#

That's a valid result. If you are trying to calculate k though, y would be half of 80, or just 40, which results in 40/80 = 1/2.

compact totem
#

so for calculation like this, what ever we start with for example 80, set y as half ?

#

because of half life

inner zealot
#

Yes, for determining the k constant.

#

If you were to determine the third-life and were given a third-life time of t years, it would be ln(1/3)/t). Note how I changed 1/2 to 1/3.

#

But we generally only use half-life so it's always ln( 1/2)/t.

compact totem
#

im trying understand the general relationship of y and ce inregarding to the equation y = C e^kt because i know it can be used for more then just half life

I am trying to understand the proof from proofwiki of the inclusion exclusion principle but this step where they talk about the expansion...how did they come up with the formula for those intersections? Why are there only 2 sums (with interval indexes)..does anyone have a more in depth way of explaining this step?

dusky veldt
#

Could someone help me understand the du substitution here?

dusky veldt
#

I understand the -sinx disappears here? Because you sub du into it

swift dragon
#

$\dd x=\frac{\dd u}{-\sin(x)}$

potent lotusBOT
swift dragon
#

plugging that in cancels out the sin(x)

#

$\int\cos(x)^5\sin(x)\dd x=\int u^5\sin(x)\frac{\dd u}{-\sin(x)}=-\int u^5\dd u$

potent lotusBOT
dusky veldt
swift dragon
#

its literally given at the top of the screenshot you wrote

#

just rewritten

#

it depends on your choice of u of course

dusky veldt
#

Yeah I saw that

#

I'm just confused about u-sub

#

If I have 2 things multiplied

swift dragon
#

$\dv{u}{x}=-\sin(x)\\dd u=-\sin(x)\dd x\\dd x=\frac{\dd u}{-\sin(x)}$

potent lotusBOT
dusky veldt
#

I can just set du equal to one of them and they go away?

swift dragon
#

usually

#

it depends on your integral of course

#

it will not work for every integral

dusky veldt
#

Is there something I can read about when it is correct and isn't?

swift dragon
#

wdym?

dusky veldt
#

If I decided sin(x) was my U

#

and du = cos^5(x)

swift dragon
#

you choose u

#

and then you get a du/dx

#

if u=sin(x), then du=cos(x)dx

dusky veldt
#

ahhhh

#

I see now

#

I thought we arbitrarily chose du here

#

but we took the derivative of U

#

this is all makes sense now

thank you

coral moss
#

Can i use the derivative test to know if the series is decreasing for alternating series

coral moss
#

Idk if my question makes sense

#

Like the same way you would in an integral test

swift laurel
#

id you have a sequence a_n and a function f(x) such that f(n) = a_n for all n, then if you can show that f(x) is decreasing that would also show that a_n is decreasing

#

and you can show f(x) is decreasing with a derivative

coral moss
#

With a derivative that has opposite sign right

swift laurel
#

a function is decreasing if its derivative is negative

1/u^2 ?

#

what?

#

also you for some reason did not actually take any antiderivative

crisp minnow
#

i didnt?

velvet osprey

but more importantly how did 1/u^2 happen

#

you should have had $\frac23 \int_4^{23} u^2 \dd{u}$ yes?

potent lotusBOT
crisp minnow
velvet osprey
#

yes so

#

redo the integral

#

and do not forget to actually integrate

#

$\int_a^b f(x) \dd{x}$ generally does not equal $f(b)-f(a)$. a function is generally not the same as its own antiderivative, with a single exception

for any value of x, I get g(x) = 0, f(x) = x(x+1)(2x+1)(3x^2+3x-1)/30

so ax+b = 0 for any val of x

Integral Equation. Why is there extra y inside integral? How do I do this

calm coralBOT

@remote mural Has your question been resolved?

calm coralBOT
#

@remote mural Has your question been resolved?

potent smelt
#

I have no idea why there are two ys in that integral, seems weird, like it might be a typo

remote mural
#

I'm thinking the same

potent smelt
#

So this is a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The general form is

[
\phi(x) = f(x) + \lambda \int_a^b K(x, t) \phi(t) , \dd{t}
]

For this equation we have $f(x) = x^3 - x^2 + x \mathrm{e}^{x} + 1$, $\lambda = -1$, and $K(x, t) = \mathrm{e}^{t}$.

potent lotusBOT
#

OmnipotentEntity

potent smelt
#

Note, that if y is squared in the integrand, this method does not work, and probably does not have a solution.

Two persons, S and A, will arrive to some park at some random time between 1PM and 2PM, and will wait for 15 min. What is the Probability that S and A will meet each other, given that S will arrive before 1:30PM and A will arrive after 1:30PM?

@spark adder Has your question been resolved?

fickle wigeon
#

You can try drawing a graph

tough prism
#

^

fickle wigeon
#

Something like this

spark adder
#

So the square is that one hour that I understand but the 2 lines

#

The each persons 15 mins?

fickle wigeon
#

so anywhere in between they can meet

spark adder
#

Thanks

fickle wigeon
#

Your question is a subset of what I’ve previously done, it had no requirements for them to come after/before a certain time

#

which is just the area between the two lines I’ve drawn

spark adder
#

Yes so i will have to restrict that area further as i understand

white edge
#

here is my problem (Calculus II)

calm coralBOT
white edge
#

I found an answer I believe to be true based on an integration table provided by my professor, but does not match wolfram alpha's answer. I will send screenshots shortly.

#

this is my work (everything in the square is related to the problem)

#

this is the integration identity I used to reach my answer

#

where u=9x^2, u=3x, du=3, a^2=2, a=sqrt(2)

#

this is the answer WolframAlpha got (the difference is the three in my answer is missing)

#

in the right side of my work, I try to show why I have a three outside of my integral

#

please ask me questions and let me know where I went wrong, thank you

#

holy smokes I just figured it out

stone root
#

The problem is you are not integrating with respect to d(9u)

white edge
#

d(9u)?

stone root
#

But with respect to u. It's okay to multiply and divide by 9 to get 9x² both inside and outside the root but in your formula the integration is with respect to the variable u

stone root
# white edge d(9u)?

The formula is u² and du

You have used 9x² and dx. It's not matching because it is not d(9x).

white edge
#

you're saying I am using dx as the du for 9x^2? Am I understanding that right?

#

considering u, u=sqrt(9x^2) which equals 3x

#

derivative (or du) of 3x = 3dx, which I apply to my problem

#

checking my new answer, and it appears to match WolframAlpha's work

stone root
#

u=3x → du/dx = 3 → dx/du=⅓ mmm

white edge
#

I'm not sure what mmm stands for

#

to get my du in the integral, I multiply 1/3 outside of the integral and put a 3 inside (technically this is 3 x 1/3 which equals my original equation)

stone root
#

Mmm stands for thinking

white edge
#

ah ok xd

stone root
#

I did what you did

white edge
#

did you get the right answer?

fickle musk
#

Did you also express x² in terms of u

stone root
#

I got your answer

white edge
#

where I went wrong was I forgot to apply 3x in the denominator instead of x - this cancels out the 3 in the numerator, hence leaving you with WolframAlpha's answer

white edge
stone root
#

That's it

white edge
#

9x^2 in terms of u^2

white edge
#

though with all this in mind, this problem does appear to certify that the variable u in these integration formulas can represent a coefficient with x that isn't 1 without error

stone root
#

9x² in terms of u² is u² innit?

fickle musk
white edge
#

in this circumstance, yes

#

although I did manage to figure out the mistake on my own, I nonetheless appreciate the assistance 👍

could someone tell me where i went wrong in my process?

untold compass
zenith spear
#

ohh i see

untold compass
#

so skip that part and take r as a constant, h as a variable to derive

zenith spear
#

in that case would i just plug r in then derive with respect to t?

untold compass
#

yea that works

zenith spear
#

sorry this is a silly question but how would i derive it? is it just product rule? i know dr/dt is 0 but when i derived i still had r
would i get the right answer by just plugging values in or did i do something horribly wrong

well you can complete the square ig but i don't think it'll help you that much

well it would give you the same result i wrote

yeah i got no clue what to do from here ngl

well

work out the y coord of P and then use the fact P lies on the graph of g

contradiction probably

thats the same way that we prove there are infinitely many primes

I'm not sure I could use dancing numbers to create new dancing numbers

A nondancing number is precisely a number n where n^2+1 is prime

Personally, I would do the Euclidean division of f(x) by (x-i)

#

Because is f(i)=0, f(x) can be rewritten as f(x)=(x-i) *P(x) with P(x) a grade 3 polynomial

#

And with the euclidean division of f(x) by (x-i) you can find the polynomial P(x)

wait i'll send a better pic

just do I_(n+1) - I_n

rough blade
#

but gotta calculate I_(n+1) first

#

and to do that i need to integrate

#

the function i sent earlier

sweet stag

do integration by part for I_(n+1) to write it in terms of I_n & then see what might happen

rough blade
#

and v = 1/(e^x+1)^n

#

@sweet stag

sweet stag
#

mhmmm, ok dont do that yet

#

use f'(x) = f²(x) - f(x)

multiply it by $f^{n-1}(x)$ on both sides to get what you need first then apply IBP

pseudo cedar
#

Hi everyone, I need help finding ways to disprove some theory I'm working on. My reasoning is explained as best as I can in the images, if something isn't clear please ask and I'll answer best way possible.

pseudo cedar
#

Someone adviced me to translate what is explained there to Lean language which is meant to check consistency on math theorems. I started learning it but it'll take me a great while to get used to it, so in the mean time I figured I could keep asking out for help

desert nymph
#

from the second paragraph you have never explained what TI_n is

#

doesn't make sense either

pseudo cedar
#

Its any number > 0

#

I use two instances of it in the equation to keep track of it, is the number you multiply 6 with to check for potential twin prime location, Twin Index that would be

#

I'm very sorry for the notations, I'm a programmer and it's the first time I do this

desert nymph
#

two instances of what? just two instances of any integer?

pseudo cedar
#

Yeah

#

Greater than 0 ofc

#

On the right side of the equation, for TIx > 0, you can find solution for all composite numbers which aren't divisible by 2 or 3, that is, numbers which are of the form 6n± 1

desert nymph
#

"6 TI_2 +/- 1" is not necessarily a prime

pseudo cedar
#

It doesn't need to be

desert nymph
#

there is no justification for, even if those two are prime, that they can compose any other number

#

this is just idek what

pseudo cedar
#

If you try to find product of any primes greater than 3 you will only get 6n± 1 by definition. All other residues of division by 6 imply that the number is either divisible by 2 or 3

desert nymph
#

they are not, though

pseudo cedar
#

At the end of the paragraph it says " (6*TI1 ± 1) can also be any product of primes greater than 3. This will guarantee that all cases of potential TI’s are covered by the equation"

#

Even so, is it wrong to constrain an equation so that only certain values are stored in the variable?

#

As in, it would be very helpful if there was a way to constrain TI_2 only to valid TI's which have been proven by the equation. We should be talking about a function here then i suppose. The invalid TI's are those of the form TI mod(p)=p//6 where p is a prime greater than 3. How could I write this?

Like I said before, take a look at where it is shaded in the photo I sent, and place it in that exact same spot in your question. You can also reorient the photo, if it confuses you that much. Most supply and demand curves are graphed horizontally, but that's not the case in your problem, so just flip the photo I sent.

how did they get to this factorisation

Think of it like $4x^2-6xy+2y^2=0$

Well you typed it way faster than me

Hi, I don't get how the teacher went from the first to second step

pearl iron
#

after you let u = -x^2 + 3x - 2, du = -2x + 3

it turns into integral of -1/2sqrt(u) du
which is -sqrt(u)

#

and it's also a definite integral

#

so that is just not right at all

prime topaz
#

Okay that makes sense

#

Thanks!

i have no idea how to do problem 2.11

calm coralBOT
remote mural
#

i looked at the answer and it made some sense

#

still doesn’t make much sense tho

junior hamlet
#

volume 1?

pearl iron
#

what book is this

junior hamlet
remote mural
#

preparing for amc after i flopped at mathcounts

pearl iron
#

nvm

junior hamlet
remote mural
#

i dont understand the proof tho

#

z1 and z2 are different numbers

junior hamlet
#

which part

remote mural
#

how tf do we take it as one

junior hamlet
#

we arent adding z1 and z2

#

we're adding z1 and w1

#

which are both real numbers

remote mural
#

they are two different numbers tho - how can we treat that as one?

junior hamlet
#

wdym

#

by treat as one

#

oh you mean

#

let z=z1+z2i?

#

they're expressing it in complex form a+bi

#

like z1 is real part and z2 is the coefficient of the imaginary part

remote mural
#

and i dont understand that part

junior hamlet
#

like say

#

c=x+y

remote mural
junior hamlet
#

and if we see

#

(x+y)(x+y)

#

we can define it

#

as

#

c^2

#

right

pearl iron
#

z = a + bi
w = c + di
where a, b, c, d ∈ℝ

z + w = (a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i
conj(z + w) = (a + c) - (b + d)i
= a - bi + c - di
= conj(z) + conj(w)

remote mural
remote mural
#

so say z = 4 + 5i and w = 3 + 6i

#

Wait

#

oh

#

i get it now

z1 and z2 is not equal to z

#

they're completely different variables

#

but the naming just relates them to z conceptually

remote mural
junior hamlet
#

oh

#

thats

#

yea no

#

z1 and z2 are like a and b

remote mural
#

they fucking jumped steps

junior hamlet
#

wdym

remote mural
#

I really cant explain it

junior hamlet
#

they're js saying z=a+bi

remote mural
junior hamlet
#

and w=c+di

remote mural
#

yes i get that

junior hamlet
#

yeah

remote mural
#

I understood it in the first place

junior hamlet
#

alright

remote mural
#

that symbol means

#

a b c and d are rational

pearl iron
#

ℝis real numbers

remote mural
#

oh

#

that makes sense

pearl iron
#

it includes ℚ (irrational) and ℤ (rational)

junior hamlet
#

∈=belongs to

remote mural
#

Thanks

#

Oh wait

pearl iron
#

and it's a subset of ℂ (complex)

junior hamlet
#

so their coefficients have to be the same

remote mural
#

Ok

junior hamlet
#

i mean

#

real

#

not same

pastel heart
#

its wrronngggg

#

supposed to be 15

velvet osprey
#

try just the 3rd or 1st quartile?

pastel heart
#

cuz the third quartile is 25 and first quartile is 10

#

alr

velvet osprey
#

hm.

#

wonder why it is giving you 23.5 for the upper quartile.

exotic cosmos
#

has to do with the quantile definition that’s being used right

pastel heart
#

i guess

#

let me check so more examples that quantiles have been used

#

here is another example, where racetimes is the data set

#

clearly first quartile is 21 and third quartile is 35

#

no

#

its correct like that

exotic cosmos
#

yeah then what i told is right

#

it’s not using the nearest rank algorithm

#

it’s something like this:

(k-1)/(n-1) = 0.75

#

n = 11

#

so k = 7.5

#

so they take the average of the 7th and 8th element to get 23.5

pastel heart
#

k = 8.5

#

then we get 23.5

#

cool

exotic cosmos
#

yeah lol sorry

but yes

one more question

this time on product path

I would first want to re-parametrize g so that it's domain is either [a,0] or [1,b]

#

$f(t)= (2-t, (2-t)^2)$. where $f:[1,2] \to \R^2$

[
h(t) =
\begin{cases}
(-t, t^2) & 0 \leq t \leq 1 \
((2-t), (2-t)^2) & 1 \leq t \leq 2
\end{cases}

magic zodiac

I'm creating a polynomial java method that has multiple functions, but primarily the one I'm having trouble with understanding is the polynomial multiplication method in which two inputs are given in ascending order (constants first), and returned in the same format but the result being the expanded and simplified array. Below is my code:

magic zodiac
#

The strategy im using to create the aforementioned multiplication method is firstly, creating an ArrayList that appends all the expanded values (the raw multiplied values without adding like terms), and then recognizing the pattern of the two polynomials. I've determined that when you multiply certain polynomial lengths you end up getting a pretty predictable sequence of numbers which represent the occurrence of similar powered variables

#

both of these methods are correct upon testing, but the main issue I'm having is applying the logic. for the arrays {1,2,3} and {1,5,3} I'm getting the output [1,7,16,8,1] which is almost correct aside from the second last and last integers

#

I've determined that this is because the function does not recognize when it has already counted an integer and instead sequentially processes each integer 1 by 1, leaving room for the same variable integers to be counted multiple times. This isn't a problem early on with the 1,7,16 but it becomes a problem when values are not as organized as the program accounts for

#

I'm trying to figure out a way around this, is there a way to even tell java to backtrack if a number has already been processed?

#

I apologize in advance to anyone who takes a look at my code as it is not the neatest 😅

Help is needed!

If a circle exists inside a bigger circle as shown such that the inner circle passes through the centre of the larger one and the inner circle (smaller circle) is tangent to the larger circle at B, prove that DE = EB where D is a point on the outer circle and E the point of intersection of the line segment which contains both the points D and B and the smaller/inner circle.

velvet osprey
#

won't this then just make the small circle exactly half as big as the bigger one

deep violet
#

In terms of radius, yes.

velvet osprey
#

a circle's size is specified by nothing but its radius

deep violet
#

Ye

velvet osprey
#

what i mean is that AB will be the small circle's diameter

deep violet
#

But that can also mean area.

velvet osprey
#

like the circles are internally tangent at B so BA and BC are both perp to their common tangent at B

#

and thus BA and BC coincide as straight lines

deep violet
#

Yes.

#

But the question is to prove that DE = EB.

velvet osprey
#

wdym, "nahh"

deep violet
#

Nah = no

velvet osprey
#

no shit sherlock

#

do you mean like
A) "You are wrong outright."
B) "I agree with your assertion but not your proof thereof."
C) "I agree with your assertion and proof thereof, but you have violated an unstated restriction on proof methods."
D) "My disagreement does not fit into any of the above categories."

deep violet
velvet osprey
#

should i trust your probably-deliberately-shoddy diagram?

also i will assume your disagreement with me falls under option A unless you say otherwise
