are you still following or

#

need help

last willow
#

Oh most certainly still with ya on this. Currently doing graphing and its frustrating because when you are trying to find the points on a line and you have neither x or y, as long as the equation is satisfied it will work. However I keep getting everything wrong even when the math checks out so i sought this place out to see where i might be going wrong

icy nymph
#

why are you graphing this?

last willow
#

College lol

icy nymph
last willow
#

Graphing Linear equations in two variables

icy nymph
#

i'm kinda getting more confused 😭

but anyways

#

do u still need help

last willow
#

Thats exactly how i feel

#

Because if i do it the way the "Tutor" says to do it, i get the wrong answer and if i do it how you do it, its not negative, either way the math isnt mathing for this one lol

icy nymph
#

can you show me

#

the question

#

and how your tutor did it

last willow
#

Im using Hawkeslearning if that helps any

#

the equation that i need to find X and Y for is y=-2/-3x -2. Now i know that you can multiply the fraction by 0 to get y. then getting X is where i keep getting tripped up. The tutor explained to multiply the fraction on both sides being the fraction and the whole number to get -3

@last willow Has your question been resolved?

strange pendant
#

its the equation of a line, just find two points in the line and make a line that passes through them

#

find two points (x1,y1) and another point (x2,y2) and draw a straight line through them

#

just, pick two random Xs and find those Ys,

#

simplest scenario is when x = 0, thats the y-intercept, then second simplest is when x = 3

I did a problem just like this and i’m very confused. i understand the similarities between the triangles and understand someway along the problem i need to use special right triangle ratios but i don’t know where to start

terse gale
#

Not homework btw this is practice exercides

#

I know angle LJM~angle JMK~ angle LMK

area is 30

tulip spear
dusky kindle
#

use the area method

odd pine
#

The area method is much cleaner.

terse gale
#

what is area method??

dusky kindle
#

do you know the area of a triangle is 1/2 bh

terse gale
tulip spear
dusky kindle
#

exactly, we can express the areas in too different ways.

tulip spear
#

pythogora would me more rigorous

terse gale
#

i think pythagoras is better because this class is heavy on proofs and theron’s

dusky kindle
#

lets use LJ as the base. Now we can form an equation

terse gale
#

thereomz

terse gale
#

then the height is x

dusky kindle
#

yes, so 30 = 1/2 * 13 * x

terse gale
#

wait wait

#

ohh nevermind yeah

#

I think i have to solve using right triangle similarity and stuff

odd pine

@terse gale Has your question been resolved?

vale star
#

The ratio of sides opposite to thee equal angles r equal

#

Let's consider triangle JMK and JML
,here in JMK ,thee side opposite to 90° is 12 and in JML the side opposite to 90° is 13

#

So ere we get a ratio 12/13

#

Similarly in JMK the side opposite to <J is x and jn JML the side opposite to <J is 9

#

So we get another ratio, x/9

#

Since we know that the ratio of sides of similar triangles r equal so we can say that
$\frac{x}{9}=\frac{12}{13}$

Now i think u can determine x

#

Can someone help walk me through these questions? I had a really hard time understanding my teachers lesson 😭 I’m gonna go insane
(Just 1-4)

frigid kiln
tired rock
#

also a reminder that a root can be converted into an exponent

wheat badger
thorny urchin
#

do you know the link between roots and fractional exponents?

frigid kiln
#

Yes, recall that relation between them

wheat badger
#

Just an example

thorny urchin
#

wdym no exponent next to a number

wheat badger
#

To a number

#

Just the root 3

#

It would be 1/3

#

Exponent

thorny urchin
#

poor wording.
that would be described as cube root or 3rd root

#

$\sqrt[3]{x} = x^{\frac 13}$

boreal girderBOT
#

ℝαμOmeganato5

thorny urchin
#

root 3 means $\sqrt{3}$

boreal girderBOT
#

ℝαμOmeganato5

wheat badger
wheat badger
#

ok so I was just wording it wrong ok

#

So what would I do with that 2nd part in the equation

#

Distribute the 1/3?

#

Or is there something else I should do

strange ermine
#

The root of a product is the product of the single roots, first of all

#

Then, for each of those three terms you can write ^⅓ instead of the ³√

wheat badger
strange ermine
wheat badger
#

Am I going on the right track here?

strange ermine
# wheat badger Yes 😭

Then I just meant what I wrote...
Hence, this:

$$\sqrt[3]{ABC} = \sqrt[3]{A}\cdot\sqrt[3]{B}\cdot\sqrt[3]{C}$$

boreal girderBOT
#

Alberto Z.

wheat badger
thorny urchin
#

cube root of 9 isn't 3

strange ermine
strange ermine
wheat badger
#

Yeah that’s wrong so just move that to the inside of the root

#

Not the outside

#

The 9

strange ermine
#

Yep

wheat badger
#

Got it alright

strange ermine
#

It has to stay under the root, unfortunately

wheat badger
#

Something with multiplying the 2 equations right

#

Apply what?

strange ermine
strange ermine
#

Wait wait

#

Where does that 2 come from?

wheat badger
#

I corrected the 3 btw

wheat badger
#

That’s also on the inside still

strange ermine
#

Oh ok

wheat badger
strange ermine
#

(the 6)

wheat badger
#

Here’s what it looks like doing that

strange ermine
#

y⁴ not y³

#

In the front

wheat badger
#

Alright

strange ermine
#

Because you have y•y³

wheat badger
#

1+3

#

Yep alright

#

Now the other part

#

Do I multiply those too?

strange ermine
#

Of course

wheat badger
#

Ignore the cube root for now

#

Right

strange ermine
#

$$\sqrt[3]{A}\cdot \sqrt[3]{B} = \sqrt[3]{A\cdot B}$$

boreal girderBOT
#

Alberto Z.

strange ermine
#

Just use this

wheat badger
strange ermine
#

You should have just one big cube root

strange ermine
wheat badger
#

?

strange ermine
#

Indeed!

wheat badger
#

Got it and then combine like terms right

strange ermine
strange ermine
wheat badger
#

Final answer I think

strange ermine
#

Very good job

#

Just s minor hint: you can write 54 as 2•27

#

So that you can simplify $\sqrt[3]{54}$

boreal girderBOT
#

Alberto Z.

wheat badger
#

Got it

wheat badger
#

Right?

strange ermine
#

Exactly

#

So that it becomes 3, since 3³ = 27

wheat badger
#

Lmk if that’s what you mean

strange ermine
#

You forgot the ⁷ on the z

wheat badger
#

OH oops okay thank you for noticing that

strange ermine
#

And also inside the root there should be 2xy, not 3xy

#

Because 54 was 2•3³

wheat badger
#

Alright

#

All good after that

#

?

strange ermine
#

Yes

wheat badger
#

So I started setting up the next one

#

I think I messed up with the 2nd part

strange ermine
#

So far everything is correct

wheat badger
#

Really okay

strange ermine
#

But I suggest you to write the second bit as $\sqrt[3]{{(9x^2y^4)}^2}$

boreal girderBOT
#

Alberto Z.

wheat badger
#

Should I tackle that ^2 first

wheat badger
#

Does that look correct?

strange ermine
#

(y⁴)² is y ⁸, not y⁶

strange ermine
wheat badger
#

Got it

#

Anything else

strange ermine
#

Correct that mistake, so then we can go on with correct things

wheat badger
wheat badger
strange ermine
#

Very well, you're almost done

#

You can still simplify something inside that cube root

#

Such as y⁴ = y•y³

#

And the x³

wheat badger
#

Btw I went on to setup the other 2 problems

strange ermine
#

I have to go afk for some time

#

Feel free to tag helpers

I have a question about percentages

compact pewterBOT
#

No need to ask “Can I ask…?” or “Does anyone know about…?”—it’s faster for everyone if you just ask your question! See https://dontasktoask.com/

grave sierra
#

Yes I’m forming the question have a moment

peak talon
#

It's alright, take your time

grave sierra
#

So I have 400€ at the start and my bank account rises up to 610€ after 3 years, how do I find out the interest rate of 3 years

peak talon
#

pinned

#

Simple or compund interest?

#

Compounded how often

#

Also fuck it

compact pewterBOT
#

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.

grave sierra
#

Let me pull out my remarkable, one moment

#

So first I have to find out the interest

#

And then the amount risen in %

cursive harbor
#

Like I said, unless you answer my questions I can't exactly help here

#

Is it simple or compound interest

#

If the latter, how often is it compounded

grave sierra
#

Calculated the interest

#

Oh oops instead of 400€ = 100% it should be 406€ = 100%

glad geode
#

it will be 407 and 204 becase there is an add so 765

grave sierra
#

I rounded down the number of 1.502…

glad geode
#

765 ans

grave sierra
#

How did you come up with 765 as an answer

grave sierra
#

Ok did a reverse calculation aka set the 610€ as 100%

lofty mountain
#

i can't create the equation

compact pewterBOT
vale star
#

Let the fraction be x/y

#

What would be its reciprocal?

lofty mountain
#

y/x

vale star
lofty mountain
#

7x/16y

vale star
#

Yes

#

So it said that the reciprocal is the value u get when u reduce x/y by 175/4 % of x/y

vale star
vale star
lofty mountain
#

(16xy - 7xy)/16y?

vale star
#

Not xy

vale star
lofty mountain
#

wait

vale star
#

It should be something like this

vale star
# lofty mountain

When u do the subtraction u need to divide the denominator of each fraction by the common denominator and then multiply the result with its numerator

#

Here 16y is common denominator

#

And for 1st fraction 16y/y=16
And the 16×x=16x

lofty mountain
#

👍 ok

vale star
#

Similarly for 2nd fraction 16y/16y=1 so 7x ×1=7x

vale star
lofty mountain
#

yes

#

but not the next step

#

i mean the upcoming one

#

what to do now

vale star
#

So here u get 9x/16y

#

Am i right?

lofty mountain
#

yes

vale star
#

And according to question y/x=9x/16y

lofty mountain
#

Yes

If info A implies info B and info B implies info A, does that mean info A is equivalent in info to B?
For example, if someone says that the roots of x^2 + ax + b are c and d and the roots of x^2 + cx + d are a and b, is this statement equivalent to saying that:
-a = c+d
b = cd
-c = a + b
d = ab

Well

#

They both share CO, but CFA has it twice as long

#

and both have a right angle

#

Oh their angles ACF and OCN should be equal too

mild sky
#

all the angles are the same!

copper sandal
#

and thus the last 2 angles are equal by default, making the difference in the triangles size only and judgjing by the fact OCN shares CF, it means OCN has sides 2x smaller.....

mild sky
#

not 2x

copper sandal
#

Why not

#

CAF has CF which is CO*2

mild sky
#

because OC is the hypothenus for CNO

#

but its part of a side in cFA

copper sandal
#

Ohh

#

The hypothenus in cfa is 12

#

and i think we can use that to find it for cno but im not sure

#

the hypothenus for cno is 2x smaller than cfa's side

mild sky
#

I think there is not enough information

#

you can't really find the ratio

#

I put this setup in geogebra and its seems like MN can be between 5 and 8.5

#

and its perfectly valid

copper sandal
#

huh thats weird

#

i can send the original image but its in another language and im pretty sure i translated it near accurately, with diagram of same accuracy

mild sky
#

am I missing something?

copper sandal
#

pretty sure no

mild sky
#

yeah I can't read that

copper sandal
#

CO=OF btw

#

thats not helpful though right

mild sky
#

yeah its true in the diagram

#

you are probably missing something like what is the angle ACB or something

#

or maybe what is AF

copper sandal
#

AF isnt anything said

#

but because AC = BC and CF - height, AF = FB

mild sky
#

yeah I was talking about numerical values

#

I still think we need more info

copper sandal
#

nothing else included

#

would it be solvable if we knew AB = 12 but didnt know AC and CB's lenght??

mild sky
#

probably not

copper sandal
#

What should i do now?

#

do i just close this

mild sky
#

is this homework?

copper sandal
#

yes ig

mild sky
#

is it just practice or you are going to get a grade on this

#

if its for a grade try to talk to classmates

copper sandal
#

honestly im not sure, its summer vacation homework

mild sky
#

you can leave for later and do everything else but this

#

and if you don't do this just write that you are missing information

copper sandal
#

Welp okay

#

Ty for explaining to me everything

Is this supposed to be rationalisable

Not sure about the question, could you elaborate?

weak glade

But when rationalising arent u supposed to remove radicals from denominator

stark marsh

rationalise and simplify

boreal dawn

#

no

stark marsh

i'd suppose the square root on the numerator is the only thing that can be rationalized here

A company specializing in lawn fertilizer offers a spring fertilizer and a summer fertilizer.
The fertilizers are made up of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. There is a maximum of 4650 kg of nitrogen,
3000 kg of potassium, and 3100 kg of phosphorus available to prepare the fertilizers.

Contents per bag of fertilizer

Spring Fertilizer Summer Fertilizer
Amount of nitrogen (kg) 10
Amount of potassium (kg) 8
Amount of phosphorus (kg) 4
Production cost ($) 6

Given that the company wants to produce at least 490 bags of fertilizer, how many bags of each type should it produce to minimize its production cost?

ornate cipher
#

Hey guys. I'm writing my IB math IA right now, and I wanted to compare three different attempts to model caffeine in the body using the Akaike information criterion. Namely, the michaelis menten equation (given by v = (Vmax*[s]) / (Km +[s]) where Vmax and Km remain constant), a first-order one-compartment model ( given by C(t) = (D*Ka) / (Vd(Ka-Ke)) * e^(−ke​(t))−e^(−ka(​t)). Where every parameter(?) is a constant ) and finally a polynomial regression model ( as y=β0​+β1​x+β2​x2+β3​x3+⋯+βn​xn+ε ). I'm learning stats and modelling basics for the very first time so please forgive me if im forgetting important information or giving unimportant ones. However, I read on the math stack exchange that if I'm comparing non-nested models like these, I shouldn't be using the AIC in Ripley's school of thought. Is he right in stating that, or for my purposes am I safe to use the AIC to determine the best fitting model?

somber rivet
#

can someone explain how to solve part d for me

compact pewterBOT
somber rivet
#

if part c the total energy is 12.25j

#

because i think my answer key is wrong but ai multiple ai have been giving me different answers

peak talon
#

Could you show your work?

wooden crag
#

Ok nvm

#

I approximately got it

somber rivet
#

uh my phones charging

#

but for part c is just a + b combined

#

A) Is 0.5x0.005x12^2
B) is 250x0.005x9.8
C) is A+B

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

but what is my gpe value to find the h

kind gate
#

Yo yo 🤟

wooden crag
#

Wait let me do the question myself

somber rivet
#

okay

wooden crag
#

If kinetic energy is 6 J in the last one

kind gate
wooden crag
#

Given

kind gate
#

Bro mgh is 6J

wooden crag
somber rivet
wooden crag
#

I can't explain everything in one sentence

somber rivet
#

isnt ke 6j why is that mgh

kind gate
#

Listen

somber rivet
#

yes

wooden crag
#

Delta K.E = 6 - 0.36 j = 5.64J

somber rivet
#

where did u get delta from what

kind gate
#

When the bird dropped it
The worm had the same v as the bird
So worm had both U AND KE
And now you can find h from U

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

whats U

wooden crag
#

So I use it anywhere

kind gate
#

Potential energy

somber rivet
#

okay so im learning quit simple physics rn

#

i though that u would subtract the total energy from the ke which is 6j

wicked osprey
kind gate
#

Hehe ayush

wicked osprey
#

lol epxlain the ques first

kind gate
wooden crag
#

P.E = 5.64
0.005 × 9.8 × h(drop) = 5.64

somber rivet
#

wait so my thinking for this was likee form part c the answer is 12.61J so i subtract that from 6J of the worm's KE to find the remaining GPE right

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

look at my key rq wait lemme find it

somber rivet
kind gate
#

Bro just use circle to search

somber rivet
#

circle

kind gate
#

Or Google scan

somber rivet
#

ai is giving me all different answers

kind gate
wooden crag
#

Bruh

peak talon
somber rivet
somber rivet
#

wait what is the relationship between k.e and p.e

wooden crag
#

With respect to gravitational potential energy

somber rivet
#

what is p.e and gpe not hte same

#

in this case

#

bruh what can u jst explain it from the very start

wooden crag
#

Height probably in what chapter you are in has the formula

somber rivet
#

ive learnt basically all the simple formulas

#

and like gpe=mgh or ke=1/2mv^2

wooden crag
#

h = mgh/mg

somber rivet
#

ye

wooden crag
#

So by using that we get the answer

somber rivet
#

i havent seen that formula but i can get how u rearange it

#

wait isnt that just gpe formula?

somber rivet
#

i dont get where do i start

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

ye

wooden crag
#

Ye

somber rivet
#

wait so ik the ke is 6J

#

what do i do from there

#

jst tell me like a simply way on how to solve it

wooden crag
#

Subtract the initial K.E when the bird drops it from 6 J

#

You get 5.64

somber rivet
#

ye rq why do we subtract it from the initial

wooden crag
#

Increase in k.e

somber rivet
#

and so basically this answer is wrong

somber rivet
wooden crag
#

So complex to understand

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

idk bruh

wooden crag
#

Therefore we get mgh(drop) as 5.64

somber rivet
#

yes

wooden crag
#

h=mgh/mg

#

h=5.64/0.005×9.8

somber rivet
#

wait does gpe not equal to ke cuz of like total mechanical energy?

#

cuz like pe turns into ke as it falls right so that would mean the pe is 6J?

wooden crag
#

Nah

somber rivet
#

so we subtract from the start

#

bruhh ts is so confusing

wooden crag
#

P.e and k.e are different

wooden crag
somber rivet
#

but doesnt potential at start equal to kenetic at end because like

#

when an object falls

#

its being converted no?

wooden crag
#

Bruh i just said k.e and p.e are different concepts

somber rivet
#

ye but when an object is falling

#

does it not convert

#

cuz thats what we;ve been learning at school

wooden crag
#

Why are you making it complicated for yourself?

somber rivet
#

cuz i dont get it

#

im tryna understand it

wooden crag
#

Also why are you discussing physics in the math server

#

🗣️

somber rivet
#

cuz its a math kinda question

#

idk where else to ask

wooden crag
#

There's a particular physics server like this one

somber rivet
#

can u send me the link

wooden crag
#

I came over to solve cuz this is basic physics

somber rivet
#

i dont get this bruh

kind viper
#

which one(s) do you need help with? if more than one, which one do you want to start with? what's your progress on the problem(s)?

true lava
#

i need a couple help here

#

mainly the top section then the limit notation stuff

#

but like question 2 would be a good start

kind viper
#

ok

#

have you learned about holes and vertical asymptotes in class yet?

true lava
#

yes

#

but i dont remember everything

hot parrot
#

When does it happen?

true lava
#

wdym when does it happen?

hot parrot
#

Like when does f(x)/g(x) has a hole or a asymptote when f(x) and g(x) does not.

kind viper
# true lava but i dont remember everything

This algebra 2 / precalculus video tutorial explains how to graph rational functions with asymptotes and holes. It shows you how to identify the vertical asymptotes by setting the denominator equal to zero and solving for x. It shows you how to find the equation of the horizontal asymptote by comparing the degree of the numerator with that of ...

▶ Play video
#

heres a big ass video to remind you of various things here

true lava
#

oki doki

wooden crag
kind viper
#

organic chemistry tutor has a LOT of videos specifically about math

true lava
#

ik what a hole is on a function but does number 2 even have any holes? because none of the factors are the same so no canceling for a hole

wooden crag
#

Unless it's something very complicated

kind viper
#

so indeed there are no holes.

hot parrot
true lava
#

but for 4 there is a hole at x=-2?

kind viper
#

yup

wooden crag
#

Math*

kind viper
true lava
#

now number 5 is where im getting a lil stuck idk how to factor the bottom part

kind viper
#

biggest thing is do not feed answers

#

@true lava this one, yeah?

true lava
#

yuh

kind viper
#

theres one factor you can pull out easily from x^3 - 4x

hot parrot
true lava
#

but i cant do it without the factor

kind viper
#

ok let's be a bit more direct

#

these terms, x^3 and -4x, have a common factor that you can pull out

#

what is this common factor

true lava
#

x

kind viper
#

right

#

so do it

hot parrot
#

Yes.

kind viper
#

x^3 - 4x = x(???)

true lava
#

so x(x^2-4)?

kind viper
#

yes

#

do you see how to factor further?

hot parrot
#

For x^2 - 4

kind viper
hot parrot
#

Ok

true lava
#

huh

kind viper
#

you've factorized x^3 - 4x so far as x(x^2 - 4). this is correct but you're not done yet.

#

do you see how to factorize it further?

true lava
#

x(x-2)(x+2)?

kind viper
#

wonderful

true lava
#

so hole at x=2

kind viper
#

so it seems, yes.

true lava
#

number 6 is also where i get stuck

kind viper
#

kinda blurry, this one

#

does it say $p(x) = \frac{x^2-1}{x^2+1}$?

boreal girderBOT
true lava
#

yes

kind viper
#

right

#

what's troubling you about this one?

true lava
#

im not sure where to start

kind viper
#

where would you normally start

hot parrot
#

Again when does it happen?

kind viper
#

the running theme so far has been looking at where the denominator equals 0, yes?

#

(and in service of that, we factorized the denominator)

true lava
#

yeah?

hot parrot
#

Can it be 0? And where?

kind viper
#

yes, so what happens when you try to do it in this one?

true lava
#

i dont know

kind viper
#

can you at least write down the equation x^2 + 1 = 0 and stare at it

true lava
#

move 1 over then root?

#

which is 1?

kind viper
#

careful there.

hot parrot
#

First move it yes. But...

true lava
#

what

kind viper
#

i will recommend against using words like "move" until you're grown up enough to be fully fluent in algebra.

kind viper
#

what happens?

true lava
#

you get x^2=-1

hot parrot
#

Now when does x^2 = -1?

true lava
#

it cant

#

its imaginary

hot parrot
#

Yes.

kind viper
#

that's right

#

this also means x^2 + 1 is unfactorable

#

(and it never equals 0)

#

what can you conclude about this function's holes and VAs?

hot parrot
#

For the reals at least.

kind viper
true lava
#

there isnt any

kind viper
#

correct.

true lava
#

oki for number 7 i know hown to write the notation

kind viper
#

so do you know how to calculate limits in general

#

and what your first line of attack should be for a function like this

true lava
kind viper
#

solve. find. work out. whichever other word you wanna use.

true lava
#

oh ok you made it sound like i had to do some calculations

kind viper
#

i mean you would have had to do some calculations anyway. this is math homework.

hot parrot
kind viper
#

calculations are going to happen regardless.

true lava
#

yeah

hot parrot
#

I recommend trying to find how does the function behave around 3.

kind viper
#

think about what happens to each factor as x -> 3

true lava
#

i dont need to graph this do i ?

kind viper
#

x-3 will approach 0, so for that one it'll be important whether it's positive or negative

#

no, no graph needed.

hot parrot
#

See where it goes.

#

Ok then.

#

Continue.

kind viper
#

it's only going to be positive for x -> 3+

#

for x -> 3-, x-3 will instead be negative

true lava
#

yeah ok

#

so its postivie infitity and negative infitity

kind viper
#

for stuff approaching a nonzero number, sign matters a bit less.

kind viper
true lava
#

when its approching 3 from the right its going to f(x)=+infinity

kind viper
#

you sure?

true lava
#

is it now?

#

is it not*

kind viper
#

i think you may have skimped out on doing what i said

#

do you want me to take you through this step by step to ensure you didnt miss anything?

true lava
#

yeah i think that would help alot

kind viper
#

ok

#

$f(x) = \frac{(x+2)(x-6)}{x-3}$

boreal girderBOT
true lava
#

ok

kind viper
#

we will be examining the behavior of f(x) as x → 3+, i.e. x approaches 3 from the right.

#

we do this by examining what happens to each factor in f(x) separately.

kind viper
#

i will name the factors one by one, and you will have to tell me what the factor approaches, and if it approaches zero, from what side it does so.

#

this means that i will not accept just "0" as an answer; it will have to be "0 from above" or "0 from below".

hot parrot
#

We want the sign.

kind viper
#

(nonzero limits, such as "6", can be stated without a "from above/below" qualifier)

#

are we clear? @true lava

true lava
#

yeah

kind viper
#

cool

#

first, x + 2.

#

as x → 3+, what does x+2 approach?

#

$\lim_{x \to 3^+} (x+2)$

boreal girderBOT
kind viper
#

@hot parrot i think i'd like to continue this myself btw.

true lava
#

well its approaching x=2

kind viper
#

bad wording and also wrong answer anyway

true lava
#

oh well

hot parrot
true lava
#

is this based off the end behavior

#

if so

#

i think i know what to do

kind viper
#

no, not end behavior

true lava
#

ok then im lost

kind viper
#

have you done problems about limits before?

#

like, not necessarily limits at infinity but also at a finite point

true lava
kind viper
#

hm.

#

ig give this a watch cause its gonna get quite long if i try to explain it over discord char

#

chat*

true lava
#

ok

#

wait is this a the sign chart thing?

kind viper
#

no, not really.

#

for this particular problem, here is what i expected you to produce (with my guidance):

true lava
#

ok

kind viper
#

as x -> 3+,

  • x+2 approaches 5
  • x-6 approaches -3
  • x-3 approaches 0 from above.
#

so the whole thing ``becomes'' $\frac{5 \cdot (-3)}{0^+} = \frac{-15}{0^+} = -\infty$ actually.

boreal girderBOT
true lava
#

ok

#

is it helpfull to have a calculator for this to sub in values close to 3?

kind viper
#

i would say no, it's only distracting.

#

the whole idea of looking at each factor is to break your function down into pieces where you don't have to use a calculator to figure out the behavior near your point.

true lava
#

oh ok

#

ok

#

so i watched the video

#

wait do i just plug in 3

true lava
#

but how is that negative infinity

kind viper
#

numerator comes out to -15

#

denominator comes out to what you should think of as a small but POSITIVE number.

#

-15 (negative) divided by a small number (positive) gives a huge number (negative)

true lava
#

oh ok

true lava
kind viper
#

again,

#

i broke it down factor by factor

true lava
#

oh so you plugged in the values from the factors into the equation

kind viper
#

thats not how i would've phrased it but i guess i'll take it.

true lava
#

so you subbed in x=-2 x=6 and just x=3

kind viper
#

no

#

no, i did not.

true lava
#

oh

kind viper
#

the value i subbed in at each stage has been the value that x approaches, which is 3.

#

not -2, not 6, not 69, not 420, not 0.

true lava
kind viper
#

but 3, because the question says to find the limit as x approaches 3.

true lava
#

yeah i understood that you sub that in where ever x is

kind viper
#

i think i have to go now, sorry.

true lava
#

oh ok.

i also tried to make an example..
can we take easier example than this

low bramble

I'm sure you'll be able to understand this. Can you tell me the general compound interest formula, assuming annual comounding?

lofty mountain
#

A = P(1 + r/100)^t

low bramble
#

exactly

#

so here what they're telling you is that after t=n years, your money doubled

#

can you try incorporating this information in the formula?

lofty mountain
#

2A= P(1+R/100)^n

low bramble
#

thats exactly right!

lofty mountain
#

oh

#

get it now

#

if we wanna double the A ,just square the t

#

for triple

#

multiply n by 3

#

right?

low bramble
#

no that's not right

#

look

#

each year, your money gets multiplied by (1 + r/100) right? that's why when you keep your money for n years, your money is getting multiplied by (1 + r/100)^n. first tell me if this makes sense to you

lofty mountain
#

ok

#

yes

low bramble
#

so they've told you that after n years your money doubled, meaning your money got multiplied by 2. meaning (1 + r/100)^n = 2

#

because (1 + r/100)^n is the money multipler (we just discussed this)

lofty mountain
#

ok

low bramble
#

so you have (1 + r/100)^n = 2, this is just saying that your money doubles after n years. so if you want your money to quadruple, what will change? you need to get 4 on the RHS.

#

so what do you do

Problem Statement: Design an algorithm to serialize and deserialize a binary tree. There is no restriction on how your serialization/deserialization algorithm should work. You just need to ensure that a binary tree can be serialized to a string and this string can be deserialized to the original tree structure. how do i start with this?

cursive harbor
#

Well are you familiar with DFS

#

@wintry knot

wintry knot
#

yeah

cursive harbor
#

Well that's basically the idea

#

You'd need a way to indicate when there's no more children

#

And you can just do DFS and separate by commas

wintry knot
#

so we can just check if lc and rc are null? for each parent node

cursive harbor
#

And if they're null you use a special character to indicate that

wintry knot
#

how does that help?

cursive harbor
#

Cuz you want a way to indicate when you're done with the left and are going to the right

wintry knot
#

makes sense

#

i get what i have to do but it is a little complicated for me to code it

#

i will try to do that now

cursive harbor
#

Good luck

#

It is essentially DFS

wintry knot
#

yeah, i get it now; thank you!

#

figured it out

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
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

Did u try rationalizing?

undone topaz
#

no because it's that big square root over 4

Fr

#

Very chonky expression

undone topaz
#

i really don't know how i should start

chrome harness
#

or try taking a trigonometric substitution

tulip spear
#

$E(x)=x \sqrt2 \frac{\sqrt{16-x^{2}}+8}{\sqrt{\sqrt{16-x^{2}}+4}}-(x+4)^{\frac{3}{2}}+(4-x)^{\frac{3}{2}}, \forall x\in [-4,4]$

#

oh well yeah i guess a trig substitution will work

#

let me try it rq

undone topaz
#

that 3/2 is something i haven't learned

#

it's for fresh 9th grade

#

im concerned

chrome harness
#

and then substitute x = 4costheta

#

or 4 sintheta

#

since by observation we can see that x ranges from -4,4 and cos, sin range from -1,1

#

this shud make the entire equation much easier to solve as you can use trig identities instead of brute force algebra

undone topaz
#

im going to go pray

#

let me process for a sec

chrome harness
#

alright, let me know if u need further help

undone topaz
#

i got the thing with 3/2, but i have to look further into the trig identities

chrome harness
undone topaz
#

basic

chrome harness
#

like?

#

have u gotten till half angle identities? you'll need them for this

undone topaz
#

no, no
