im back
hi
hi
are you Italian by chance
its fine
i still didn't understand the thing though
srry
hmmm
ok we left off at like
wish i could be
.
what you wrote is correct
you just have to cross multiply to solve for x
x is the answer that you require
i dont know how to cross multiply thats why i was so confused
what is cross multiplication
ok
il write it out
$\frac{d}{d}\cdot\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\cdot\frac{b}{b}$
yoboiqimmah
noooooooo
π
.
.
.............
lets start with basic problems
6x = 12
whats the value of x
12:6=2
15:7
yeah
well we gotta do 1:7 first
then when we get that we move 5
what's good about this equation there's a lot of ways to solve it
the right side is cross multiplication and the left side shows how multiplying by the denominators on both sides is the same thing as it
and you get the x
uhmm yea
5:3 = 6:x
solve for x
tell me what you get
brb
sure
My brain is fighting the thought of just dividing 5 because it wonβt be obvious lol
loll
so im supposed to make it equal
multiply them out and make them equal yea
for some cases it might in the form
ax=b just divide the a and you'll get x=b/a
yup
there are other ways to solve it too
which makes the calculation easier

6,66,666,6666, ...
Find the sum of nth term
i found the sum of the differences in terms but im not sure where to go after that
i thoguht of (the sum of differences in terms) +6n but it didnt work when i plugged it in
you can multiply by 3/2 and add one and subtract one for each term
basically it becomes 2/3(9+99+999+9999...nth term)
now you can write this as
2/3(10+100+1000+10000+... 10^n -n)
does that make sense?
and can you proceed from here?
will this work or is it lost?
It prolly won't as it is in gp (kinda)
what does gp mean
geometric progression
Geometric progression
Have you tried it out for the first few numbers?
wdym?
Did you test your conjecture out?
you mean my initial answer? yeah i subbed the number of terms but got it wrong
did n=2 but answer wasnt 6+66 basically
Okay.
i did this but ended up in a reepating loop so i realised it was wrong

found another way to represent it but its very impractical
is there anyway to make it more cohesive?
cohesive as in how the equation is structured
Factor out 60/9?

how do i calculate this "glass has 250g of water and salinity is 3%, how many grams of salt is in the glass"
do you know how percentages work in general?
yes
ok, so then would you be able to find 3% of 250?
0.30 x 250
thats 30
0.30 would be for 30%
0.03 * 250

I am trying to do this problem and I am a little bit stuck- again
y = 2? from the last block
lowkey i can't read that are those 7s or 1s
and what's going on in the first block
What have done in the second step, like multiplied it by (β2+1) or something? Cuz its wrong
I am trying to multiply the first and second equation with the conjugate so that I simplify things so that I get the form of (a+b)(a-b) = a^2 - b^2
(β2+1)^2 is not equal to ((β2)^2+1)
(β2+1)^2 = 3
$(a+b)^2= a^2 + b^2 +2ab$
Nika
yes but we are not doing (a+b)^2 we are doing (a+b)(a-b)
I am talking about the coefficient of y
first equation we multiply by β2 +1 so the coeficient of y is β2+1 => (β2+1)^2 no?
oh i see my mistake. I didn't multiply β2+1 on the right hand side lol
Yh that's right
But just so you know I don't think that's the easiest way to solve this
I know
but I am trying to see different difficulty methods of solving such a problem
Oh ok

Can someone show me how to solve this? (functions)
f(x) = 4x + 12
but i need to solve it like x is
f(x) = 0
?
imagine the question didn't have anything to do with functions, and you only had an equation to solve: 4x + 12 = 0
would you know what to do? yes or no.
how do u not get frustrated when people reply with a question mark π
yes
?? i was confused
i do.
ok, then go ahead and do that.
i dont know what this has to do with my question..
it states f(x) = 0
so u can replace f(x) with 0 for the top equation
now u have 0 = 4x + 12
try rearrange and solve for x
lmk what u get
your question literally asks you to do just this.
you're given the function f(x) = 4x+12 and asked to solve f(x) = 0.
try think f(x) as y
0 = 4 x 0 + 12
0 = 0 + 12
0 = 12?
^^
''Can someone show me how to solve this?''
kill me
ok let me say this again
ok wait
the question
"Here is a function: f(x) = 4x+12. Solve the equation f(x) = 0."
is the EXACT SAME QUESTION as
"Solve the equation 4x+12 = 0."
do you understand that these two questions are the same
No. "x" is a variable. You want to find the value of "x" which satisfies the equation when y = 0.
i am telling you those two questions are the same
yes i do but do you understand that i was confused when you began the convo with that? idk how to solve my question, like i dont know where to begin
so i am telling you where to begin
I see what you did. You mistook "x" as a multiplication operator. It is not.
yes i learn that
you begin by reframing it as i said.
it is just a "solve this equation" question.
you told me that you know how to do the reframed version. that is why i did not linger on it any more.
so y = 0?
alright
so it would be f(0) ?
oh
do u get what i mean
if f(x) = 4x + 12
when they state f(x) = 0
no. f(0) would mean you set x to 0.
that means 0 = 4x +12
but also i think all of this talk of y = f(x) is kind of irrelevant to this question in particular.
just stop pls, youre too confusing and its not helping
ok im out sorry
lmao
It's pretty irrelevant. But I suppose it makes it easier for those who do not understand what functions are to understand what f(x) means.
no ti isnt f(x) literally means y
i said that to make it easier for her
No worries. Just focus on the question at hand.
If you tell me what exactly you are stuck on, then I will be able to help you. What confuses you about this problem?
okay so, i would know how to solve the problem if the question was f(5) = 10x - 12
but the problem is with the current problem f(x) = 4x + 12 and decide that x is ** f(x) = 0 **
i dont know what they mean by that, nor how to solve it
$f(5) = 10x - 12$, you say?
if the question was
They essentially want you to find the values of x which make the function equal to zero, i.e., the points on the graph at which the function crosses the x-axis.
When a graph crosses the x-axis, what does that always mean for the y-coordinate at that point?
Percy
i dont know
if the question was $f(5) = 10x - 12$, you say?
Percy
stop?
It is equal to 0.
So you want to find the x-coordinates at which y = 0.
You can replace f(x) with "y" in this case, if the parentheses confuse you. In the equation 0 = 4x + 12, they are asking you what value you must multiply by 4, then add to 12 to get 0.
wait so
i think i get it
4 x -3 + 12 = 0?
so answer would be -3?
f(x) = -3?
Yes! Very nice!
thank god
Not f(x), however. x.
thank you man 
You're very welcome!

For these two circles constructed so that one passes through the center of the other. How do I show that the AB (chord at their intersection) and the chord made by the tangent line AC have equal magnitude/length?
Hi, so i got some hint for this
so i'm now working on first showing <NAB = <NAC
could someone help me w that
hmmmmmmmmmmmm
What is N?
something something inscribed angle maybe
N is the center of smaller triangle
yes it is indeed inscribed angle
but well i guess not yet?
Triangle?
i think this is first step probably
circle my b lol
N is the center of smaller circle and M is the center of bigger circle
Okay.
I have:
AMB = 180 - 2x
ABM is an isosceles triangle with measures (180 - 2x, x, x)
<BAC = 90 - x from alternate segment theorem
And A lies on both the large and small circle?
yes
I would say that the angle bisector of BAC divides ABC into 2 congruent triangles. Though, you will need to prove such.
well yeah that's what it looks like
but uh
the other helper suggested to invoke
inscribed angle tbh
so maybe that's the optimal route
So maybe extend a point on BC to A, and prove that. Particularly an altitude would be nice.
That also works.
Because of ||the sum of the two arcs||.
Hmm...well, it wouldnβt work out so well.
Anyways.
mmmm
mmmm7
this looks really fun
mmmm8
mmmm9
I see this as a default, though.
π i'm glad you think that
but yeah i have these so far (not much progress ig)
I think this is the first step to work towards
but yeah i kinda am not sure how to do progress w that

||Congruent triangles?||
but how?
it's just alternate segment theorem
^
triangle-inside-circle-theorem
π but like
didn't i use it
unless i used it wrong ig...
how are they equal
oh wait
you're right π
you're the genius
okay so we have <NAB = NAC from that cuz isosceles triangle
wait
we're kinda done now right?
yes
how do you state the conclusion tho? I'm thinking along the lines of
"from the law of cosines" we have that AB = AC
NAB and NAC are congruent
oh yeah okay
i'm super dumb these days
sorry
yeah SAS congruence
that was pretty simple π in hindsight
tysmm!!! 

seems about right
i don't
maybe
u remember alternate segment theorem
oh
my aops book
didn't teach me that lol
π
maybe i derived it but they didn't name it
tragedy
okay so i guess it's normal
i'll just do more geo
anyway thanks again π
and bye

for b) idk why im inccorect
this should be the answer
thanks for any help
idk why im incorrect
because if we orient our head in the direction of the normal, the circles are always on our right
which means its got negative stokes orientation
<@&286206848099549185>
@unkempt lion the orientation instead depends on whether the surface is to our left as we travel the curve
as we travel A and B we see P on the left so they have + orientation. along C we see P on the right so it has - orientation
the head need to be point in the same directs as the normal of P right?
I pointed the head in the direction of the normal of the circles which is why I got the answer wrong
is this right?
the orientation instead depends on whether the surface is to our left as we travel the curve
that seems equivalent to this
hmm i dont think the head thing works very well in this problem
then how would we orient our "guy" travelling along the curve. He could then be upside down or head pointing left/right...
you know what it works
u just have to locally reshape the surface to look like this
then u can talk about matching heads or seeing the surface on the left
but in any case u do have to match the P normal
yea because in our textbook the teacher just said point the head in the direction of the normal and I though it to be the normal of the circle or smt
anyways thank you alot for this. I hope you have a great day

Idn't know how to solve it
u know that AB is 7
and since u can see 2 radii of the circle, OA and OB
would u agree that AOB form an isoceles triangle
even better here
a tangent of a circle to a radius should always be 90 degrees
my answer was a perimeter of 49cm.
no
27cm*
before i continue yapping what made u get to 27cm
i'd like to know ur thinking process
before i completely obliterate ur way of thinking 
(using translator)
found the angles of the triangle AOB, I thought that at the point where the radius touches the circle it does so perpendicularly, so I used that to find the missing angles in ACB, and determined that it was isocels with sides of 7 cm.
and ur angle in ACB was 60 correct?
yes
yes
but now hold on a second
wait
if all angles are the same, 60
all sides should be the same as well
so if AB is a given side, 7cm
sorry i donΒ΄t now the types of triangles
u were right the other sides were also 7cm
it is equilateral
if all the angles of a triangle are the same, all sides are the same
...
perimeter means ur adding up each side
was unfocused
at least now I know my thinking was good, thank you.

Hi I was trying to solve this, but I dont know what values the red and yelllow rope should take, I know theres other way that is just count the ropes and then divide the mass with that number, but ,how is solving it the analitycal way?
You solve these systems by noting the wire lengths are constant
Blue wire = constant
A + (A - B) = constant
Then the second derivative:
2accel(A) - accel(B) = 0
i joined a math server expecting this to help high school and middle school students but what is this π
@everyone
Is static
Sorry I didn't quite get that
I know the lengths are not important in this case, I just write T for tension

how can i prove that $\lim_{n\to\infty}\sin(\frac 1n)=0$ without using that $\sin(x)$ is a \continuous function
pirateking0723
I am not sure if i can use sin(1/n)=<1/n but i dont think that i can
well i know how to do this if i am allowed some more tools
but i am not sure what i am allowed to use lol
knief
yes ik
so just use comparison with 1/n
but this holds like this too
well the thing is that i dont know if i am allowed to do such a comparison or no
thats why i am asking for something else
why not?
youβve just said you canβt use continuity of sin x and donβt want to bound it by a convergent sequence..
no problem if i bound it with a convergent sequence
brother youβre tying your hands behind your back and legs together
1/n
then everything is fine
take N = 1/eps
ceiling if youβre being extra precise
then just use a chain of inequalities n > N β>β¦
this means that for all n>=N, 1/n<Ξ΅
but then what
how do i relate it to sin(1/n)
well what i am trying to do rn is prove that |sin(1/n)|<1/n
i can bound it by a convergent sequence to use squeeze theorem
but i think that i am not allowed to write this inequality directly
(i am not sure tbh)
but since i am not sure then i just have to prove this inequality
well you donβt even need to cite squeeze theorem here
this is sufficient
yea it is
but how do i do this
no
you donβt need taylor series here
just convergence of sequences and series
no
ππ
well if there is no way to prove it with these tools then ig i am allowed to use it after all
otherwise it wont be logical to have such a question lol
ask your professor
this is clear from mvt
yo aeooeoeo has been cooking for a minute
well i am sure that i cant use this
yea let him cook
you learned it in calculus
i will ask him tomorrow
yea but that doesnt mean that i can use it in analysis rn 
π€·πΌββοΈπ€·πΌββοΈ
but you havenβt even defined sin(x) either
ππ
did you ask him
i cant ask him rn it is 11:40 pm
he probably is letting you use the 1/n bound tbf
well i have him tomorrow so i am not rushing, i prefer not to disturb him rn ngl
but yea i think he is allowing this
given what i can use
Thought I was cooking only to cook myself in the end
Why would you not use that sin is a continuous function ?
I'm still curious if a geometrical proof with triangles is possible...
ah..
probably had to use epsilon N definition
Why not use the fact that it's decreasing and bouded ?
so i show that it decrasing and its inf is 0
sounds good
how to show that it is decreasing though
yea but have you proved this part of monotone convergence
yea
I have a feeling it might be circular though I don't remember the proof
do i use sum to product trig formula to transform sin(1/n)-sin(1/m) into a product ?
No you can just say that 1/n+1 < 1/n
for n > 2/pi . 0 <1/n < Pi/2 . Meaning sin(1/n) is decreasing
ohh i see
as for the infimum , i need to look at inf |sin(1/n)| right ?
because well idk if i am tripping or no but i dont think that inf sin(1/n)=0
for example if you take 1/(2Ο)<n<1/Ο then Ο<1/n<2Ο which means that sin(1/n)< 0
well i gtg sleep now tysm everyone for your help
have a great day/night

proof of sigma n^4 with the use of x^5 - (x-1)^5
I am sending my work
deja vu
π€£
have you not posted this same thing before
also uh... factorisation?
Yes
Nope never
How did we reach to 2nd step from 1st step??
some kind of factorization trickery. rational root theorem to pluck out those linear factors ig
Yeah you can just kinda see that 0 and -1 are roots
then do some poly long divides with factor theorem
Can u pls write the steps
Idk these terms
In my country , I have never heard rational root theorem

well then explain how
first i got to e^2x(dy)=6xy^1/3)(dx)
which i eventually got down to 1/6(y^-1/3)dy=x(e^-2x)dx
so far so good?
so basically the first the first line except i had 1/6 on the LHS instead of 6 RHS
i then integrated left side to get 1/4y^2/3, and integrated RHS (integration by parts) to get -1/2xe^-2x-1/4e^-2x
and then once i add my + c on the RHS and subbed in the cords i got 1/2 for c
It's still correct
but why does mark scheme show c=3 and no recognitinon for 1/2
And also how would I do this q
?
if you sub back in the c, what do you get?
sub back in the c into where?
after the integration
you have 1/4 y^2/3 = ... + c right?
sub the c there, then solve for y^2 like they did
yep
ah i see
okay
lemme try
got it
thanks
@barren horizon
Do you mind helping me out with another q?
you should get the same thing as they did right?
nice
you could rewrite it as $y=\pm \sqrt{g(x)}$
then take the limit
Sepdron
i don't really understand
is it still that question?
Yeah
i tried this question but idk why i still don't understand how to do this. can someone help me out?
then you have y^2 = (...)^3
take the sqrt on both sides, and you get
y = Β±sqrt((...)^3)
yeah and what can i do with this after?
take $\lim_{x \to \infty} y$ then also as $x \to -\infty$
Sepdron
all parts for this question
idk how to explain that one, sorry

Three workersβA, B, and Cβare assigned a job. They work in pairs at different rates:
When A and B work together, they complete the job in 6 hours.
When A and C work together, they complete the job in 8 hours.
When B and C work together, they complete the job in 12 hours.
Assuming each worker's work rate is constant, determine the time it would take for each worker to complete the job individually.
Delete your message also
The trick to these questions is to recognise:
If a is the hours A will take to complete a job, then 1/a is the rate at which A works, in jobs/hour.
And the rates can just be added together. 1/a + 1/b is the rate at which A and B work together

How do i factor this?
sum of cubes/ difference of cubes
That's a^2 +2ab +b^2 right?
aΒ² - bΒ² = (a+b)(a-b)
You have to simplify ?
eh ?
Im asking what you have to do
Yes
Yw
Maybe there is some kind of rule idk
sin x tan x = sin^2 x / cos x
is that a rule?
What do you mean by rule?
Ah
like the pythagorean identities
i dont know what rules you have i'm just turning tan into sin/cos...
oh ok
im just confused on how you got to this
So the numerator tanx gets converted to sinx/cosx
distribute the denominator maybe it will help
numerator*
1/sinx +1/tanx
Cosec x +cot x
@somber shale that's easy
yeah idk what theyre tryna do
ok...
they're complicating it further
Sorry
dont worry I didn't say that for you
do you need explanation ?or you understood?
please explain !! tysm
okay
we have tanx+sinx/(sinx tanx)
now distribute the numerator
like a+c/bd is a/bd+c/bd
okay?
tanx/tanxβ’sinx +sinx/tanxβ’sinx
tanx will be cancelled in 1st and sinx in 2nd as they're same in numerator and denominator
you will get 1/sinx +1/tanx
1/sinx =cosec x
1/tanx= cot x
cosec x+cotx
any doubt?
yhhh
Your que is solved now
so close the channel if you don't need any more help π

I need help with these types of problems. The only part I know is f(1) the other derivatives I do not understand.
How do I determine whether f'(1) and f''(1) are Positive, negative or Zero?
like i know this is sloping up towards the right and would be positive but I am not sure
if its sloping upwards, its positive
if you were to write it as an equation mx+b, the tangent line to the function at that point, then m would be the slope (f'(x))
ok, thank you I get f'(x) now but what about f''(1)
f''(1) is the derivative of the derivative
would you be able to sketch the graph of f'(x)?
for this would it be
thats not quite right
notice how at these 3 points
are 3 different slopes
first one is steep, second one is not as steep, third one is steep again

Prove or give a counter example.
Let $(a_n) \to a$
If every $a_n$ is an upper bound for a set $B$, then $a$ is also an upper bound for $B$
What a wonderful world !
I suspect this is false
how
I thought I could consider the set ( 0, \sqrt{2}) and come up with a decreasing seqeunce converging to \sqrt{2}
that's still an upper bound though
but then a would be an upper bound?
yeah, just realised
my analysis brain is sounding alarms at this
i cant vocalize it because bad at math
Hmm, I could try proving it in that case
i swear theres some theorem
i mean this is a fundamental idea that you cant suddenly have jumps
i just cant have a word to it
cant remember

Let $a$ not be an upper bound for $B$, it thus follows there exists an element in $B$, such that $bβ₯a$.
\
As $a_n$ is convergent, $\forall \varepsilon >0$there's an $N$, such if $nβ₯N$, $\abs{a_n-a}β€ \varepsilon$
\
We thus have that $\forall nβ₯$, $a_n - a β₯ a_n -bβ₯ \varepsilon$.
\
It thus follows that $a_n. \to b$ and $a_n \to a$
\
Thus $b=a$.
\
This would mean $a$ is an in upper bound
its true
its less a thing about jumps and more like
What a wonderful world !
squeeze theorem
sort of a general principle that limits preserve inequalities (nonstrictly)
yes
does this work
oh yeah, do you have the squeeze theorem
its sloppy but sure
instead of "not an upper bound and b\geq a"
do b>a
and get that a_n is eventually b > a_n
OR
yea
directly show that sup B \leq a
if we can use this fact
limits preserve nonstrict inequalities
then the proof is very fast
do you have that a_n \leq b_n implies lim a \leq lim b
yes
oh right
lim a_n
big pun
a small one eventually
u cant keep getting away with this
This is kind of easy to disprove
\
If every $(a_n)$ is rational, so is $a$
\
$a_n= \left( 1+ \frac{1}{n} \right)^{n}$ works, but haven't defined $e$ so a bad example
What a wonderful world !
a_n=nth truncation of pi
very easy to disprove yes
or: any irrational
for that I would have to define $Ο$ and prove stuff about it, right
What a wonderful world !
limits were invented to fill in irrational gaps
yea, but Ο is a different beast
no just take anything irrational
literally any of them
sqrt2 is also famous
okay, $\sqrt{2}$'s digits, I suppose then
What a wonderful world !
okie, thanks
truly

i do not understand this problem at all am I even doing this right?
To find x and y I added and substracted the initial set of equations with the hope I can form a new set of equations
i just don't get these problems or how to solve them
not really
in this problem though you can notice two things: that the only two denominators involved are 2x-3y+2 and and 3x-2y+3
which lets you do a certain trick that im about to show on paper
oh ok
and when we find u and v those are howevere not the values of x and y
right?
u and v is just 1/...
of course they aren't.
but once you find u and v, you can reduce easily to a linear system in x and y
like this? but if we first said u and v is = to something now we say it's equal to something else? and how does it help me find x and y now
ok hold on let me reproduce
alr
so i know you got the arithmetic right
ok you did
now
1/(2x-3y+2) = 1/3
1/(3x-2y+3) = 1/2
thus
2x - 3y + 2 = 3
3x - 2y + 3 = 2
and so you have another linear system
this part i understood very well. the next part not so much. Where did we get those new values from
wym
i took the reciprocal of both sides
in each one
you understand that if 1/a = 1/8 then a=8, yes?
if you want, i guess...
yes, it's literally what i wrote
i understand better now i think
ok so 2x-3y = 1
3x-2y = -1
@kind viper i did it!!!
Thank you so so so so much for teaching me this method i had no idea you can even do that it was so much easier
and i actually understood it
substitution is a powerful tool
I know I just got used using the reduction method like adding ... the equations method
i just had no idea you can literally introduce new variables yourself
because doing that helped me alot
This is however factorizing no?
no, there's no factorization involved here
