work out this angle using either the sine law or the cosine law (you have enough data for either one; no preference on execution difficulty either)
then work out angle ACD as 52 minus that
then find the area of ACD as 1/2 * AC * AD * sin(ACD)
ah I see
So as a general tip for these sorts of questions
try to avoid assumptions?
i mean thats a good general tip for life in general
not merely for math problems
but in math it is especially strong
if you have to make an assumption, state it outright

The prompt is to solve for x.
6^2x + 10 = 88
8 already isolated 6^2x to get 6^2x = 78
I now am confused what to do after moving into logarithmic form.
Just to be absolutely clear, you want $6^2x = 78$, as is shown in the image?
or do you want $6^{2x} = 78$
This one.
Have you come up with log in the first place?
Yes.
well what happened when you did as you said
what's the result of "moving into logarithmic form"
This is what I got. I might have done it wrong.
Because I forgot how to work with logs.
no that's correct
Looks very decent
so $2x = \log_6 78$
Raphaelisius Maximus MMIII
So what do I do from here? I don’t remember how to get past this.
divide both sides by 2
Yes. That is what I got.
But how would I simplify that?
log_6(78) is just some number
solve the same way as you would something like
2p = 15
? I think I wrote it wrong. Looks unfamiliar.
by the properties of exponentiation
$6^{2x}=(6^x)^2$.
then we take the square root of both sides and get
$|6^x|=\sqrt{78}$.
obviously 6 to no power is negative, so we can take the absolute value away: $6^x=\sqrt{78}$.
from here using logarithms we get $x=\log_6(\sqrt{78})$.
@wispy knot
that's just the correct form
if you want to "simplify" log_6(78), just try to write 78 = 6^... * ...
That's all you need
that's the best you'll do
absolutely nothing wrong with writing it like this
and what are they?
\sqrt{78} unfortunately can’t be simplified any further, as it’s 2 times 3 times 13
plug it into your calculator
most likely
2.1784, 2.5286, 0.946, 1.2158
yep... calculator time or approx
,w log_6(sqrt(78))
How do I change the 10 to a 6? In my calculator the number next to the log is always a 10.
the last one
don't think so
use your change of base rule
there probably is a log_x(y) button somewhere
How did you get the result part?
nah some calculators only have ln or lg/log
Sorry typos
That is what I am worried about.
look at the given answers
Yes.
ohh
use your change of base rule (x2)
Huh?
$$
\log_a(b) = {\ln b \over \ln a}
$$
@wispy knot
$\log_{6}(\sqrt{78})=\frac{\log(\sqrt{78})}{\log(6)}$
$$
\log_6(\sqrt{78}) = {\ln \sqrt{78} \over \ln 6}
$$
How did I forget??
@wispy knot
anyway it’s 1.2158
I’m abismally slow on a phone
holy latex fail
\log not log
\sin not sin
\cot not cot

dw it’s alright
This was more of a comparison of latex on phone vs computer than a log question
How does natural log work?
I have to wrestle against autocorrect and the text selection placing me not where I want to be
Natural log is log in base e=2.71828…
if we have
$$\ln a = x$$
then
$$e^x = a$$
And e is roughly 2.71?
$
\ln a = \log_e \left(a\right)
$, where $e \approx 2.71$.
yup
@wispy knot
why is the e so small
looks perfectly sized to me imo
Cuz they used it as a subscript
how did you get this?
I took this number.
Ln(78)/ln(6)
I used the thing someone sent above to make it look like this.
That’s as far as you can go really unless you use powers, but then it’s a bit of a mess
${\ln a \over \ln b} \ne \ln {a \over b}$
@wispy knot
as much as we’d like it to
I know.
But if I take the natural log of 78 and divide that by the natural log of 6, that works, no?
yes
this is correct tho
i assume you got $2x=\ln 13$ by $2x = \ln {78 \over 6}$, which is wrong
@wispy knot
right, that’s equal to $\log_6 78$, not $\ln 13$
@wispy knot
Yeah. I figured.
But I took ln78 which is roughly 4.35.
And divided it by ln6 which is roughly 2.43.
Divided that by 2.
1.21
,w ln(78)/ln(6)
,w 2.4315/2
just plug this $\frac{\ln 78}{\ln 6} \div 2$ straight into your calculator, dont bother with rounding off
yeah, the answer is 1.2158
I rounded off for the sake of typing. lol not in my calculator. I promise.
I just took the raw answer for calculations.
ah sure okay
See?
dang bro your calculator got a screenshot function
Yeah. And SD card port to download and save data.

Pretty sure you’re just supposed to inspect these antiderivatives
take cosx as t for the first one
oh numerator and denominator separately?
Yes
oh ok let me try that
how do i integrate
(xsinx-1)e^cos x dx
oh wait i see something
oh ok
yes i got it now
Damn I think I see the answer, it's pretty neat unless I'm messing something (doing it in my head so that's probable)
thank u
yeah no i got it..its just i thought we had to make the numerator in a way
such that the integral from the denominator cancels
from here the left handside part is easily integrable
the right hand side
(xsinx-1)e^cos x
xe^cos x sin x - e^cos x
Yes
Yoooo, I saw IBP for -e^cosx, that works too ig

Can anyone help me with calculating this limite
,rotate
Start by making a substitution, i.e. u = x - 5
yeah?
Try it, see what you get
you can first put the sin function outside the limit
It isn't mandatory, but it will clear everything out, and possibly letting you see what to do next
Yeah sure
so I replace the x with u + 5 right?
You can do this but there are reasons not to unless you’re skilled with extended reals
I tried now replacing x with u+5 and I'll see how it goes
I got stuck here
I was thinking we were going to do substitution at the first step
^
It’s usually better to keep sqrt out of denominator
i study maths in french so I might have didnt understood it correctly
can I do the limite of whats inside the sin alone then if i got a real number i just calculate its sin
?
Yup
yeah yeah it makes more sense like tht
And also, $x\sqrt{x - 1} \neq u+5\sqrt{u+4}$
Alberto Z.
its should be, $(u+5)/sqrt{u+5}$
AymanRhz
AymanRhz
Rather, $x\sqrt{x - 1} = ( u+5) \sqrt{u+4}$
Alberto Z.
oh yeaah, thankss
should I multiply then divide by $(((u + 5)\sqrt{u+4}) + 2\pi)$
actual
AymanRhz
they told me to calculate the limite not to proov it equals something
Because I get indeterminate
its sin (infinity)
Yeah sure but have you been given the result?
Yeah exactly
yeah thats where i got stuck
nope
But that's something weird (not per se) but because it's very rare in the school problems
You cannot go further, because $\nexists \lim_{t\to \infty} \sin t$
Alberto Z.
just to let you know what its exactly, we were studying that two functions f and g, I is the intervalle of f and J the intervalle of g
if f(I) C g and lim x -> x0 f(x) = l , then we'll have lim g(f(x)) when x approaches x0 = g(l)
I'm sorry my english isnt the best but its just the propriety we were given and this exercice should be an application for this

How do I do this? Been on this question for 30 minutes, tops.
Were you given any introduction as to how you would solve these types of questions?
Dude, anybody can recognize that this is an unsolved problem In mathematics. This is like trying to solve the Riemann hypothesis.
Apologies, but I've turned to this discord as my last hope and planned on completeing my homework that my teacher gave.
No, absolutely not.

in what ways could i write this to a proposition?
rn im thinking of V(x) and T(y)
where V is x is a valid argument and T is y has true conclusion
but uh im not too sure what to do from now on
What’s the difference between an argument and a conclusion
uh
idk how to answer that sry
Then how do you know what you answer with
this feels awfully vague whats the full question (like the general discription before the part a,b,c) and what class is this?
You don’t even know what kind of answer you’re supposed to give
Oh actually I don’t think that’s too important
Yeah I think so, do show the first few parts and also what you might try
its completely unrelated im just asking this to understand more of how to translate english to like logical propositions
Actually nvm
It would be better if you asked all of these questions in the same channel
That way we don’t have to get back up to where we were
😭 its not the same question
But they are related to the previous
there is this thing from first order logic that says "provable implies consistent" Ie, if a set of axioms T gives a proof of a statement phi, then T along with phi will not run into contradictions, and any universe for which T is satisfied will satisfy phi.
but this is a rather involved theorem in logic
I don't think that's the right context here
from V(x) and T(x),where V is x is a valid argument and T is y has true conclusion, for all x (V(x) --> T(x))
This is just basic translation of sentences into propositions
thats what i have rn
honestly i have no idea what the context is, mb
Well, that's all you need
sorry 😭
just translate it to logical propositions is all i was asking
ah okay tyty
Why do you think there is more to it?
sorry for being unclear i need to work on my math language lol
it uh
i felt like
i couldve added like
2 variables etc

;like a third predicate
Let's rephrase the statement
Any valid argument has a true conclusion
how is V(x) defined?
This is like "any [ argument that is valid ] is an [argument that has a true conclusion ]"
You could technically bother with a "conclusion" predicate, but there is really no need at all since it's only used once
so in the op's context, x is "arguments" and V(x) is the verification for validity of arguments, and T(x) outputs the conclusion of argument?
The "any" is just a "for all", and the "is an" is just an implication
ah okay okay
More like T(x) is whether the argument has a true conclusion
(I guess you could say "whether the argument's conclusion is true", since presumably all arguments have a conclusion)
yeah i think i got it
but ngl i need to learn latex this is so
yeah
hard to write LMAO
well the conclusion of ops question assumes all correct argument has a conclusion so
$\forall x (V(x) \implies T(x))$
Nel

Need help solving this limit
first we have to check if the limit is of any of the 7 indeterminate forms by substitution of the limit value
by substitution it yields that it does NOT correlate to any of the indeterminate forms
so we have to evaluate the limit as it is tending to 3 FROM THE LEFT and as it is tending to 3 FROM THE RIGHT
try doing that rq and send what you get
got this, I don't know if it's right or not
sweet
now as x gets closer and closer to "3" from both ends,
approaching from the left will yield a VERY LARGE positive value
which is +inf
approaching from the right will yield a VERY LARGE negative value
which is -inf
for the limit to exist at that point, both the left hand and right hand limits must exist, and must be equal to each other
which in this case they're not
so clearly, the limit doesnt exist
alrighty

How do I find the value of x in x^3 - 3x^2 + 6= 0 without graphing
algebraically
U know anything about the log with base e which is ln
yh
Ouch sorry not sure why I saw e (just solved em I'm sorry my brain 😭)
No no I'll tell u somehow else to solve that
We got x power 3
yh
So the method we used that apparently fails here
Is u check for which x = 0
Since it's power 3 u got 3 solutions
And we literally just try -2 -1 0 1 -2
If = 0
The uhm let's call it f can be divided by x - (the number)
Our or my main issue here is to find that number
I'll get up and try
Do you know how to use Cardano's formula? Or can you use it?
what is that
it is the formula for the solutions of cubic polynomials
yea this root is nasty idk how else you get it
if RRT doesnt find it i dont think random guessing is gonna help
probably overkill for this. you can try maybe depressing the cubic?
elaborate pls
Unfortunately I checked all the 3 solutions are not natural numbers that's why
I'll check up Kitsu's method
alr!
pls check it

tf c go
oh its because its the complimentary solution so it adds nothing i think
is that it?
Let's say you included them
You'd get:
$- e^t (\frac{1}{2} \ln(1 + t^2) + c_{3}) + t e^t (\tan^{-1}(t) + c_{4})$
💪 Greenie The Power Queenie 💪
Which if we expand it out, we get:
$- \frac{1}{2} e^t \ln(1 + t^2) - c_{3} e^t + t e^t \tan^{-1}(t) + c_{4} t e^t$
💪 Greenie The Power Queenie 💪
yea ok its the complimentary solution
More like it can be absorbed into it, but yeah
how can it be absorbed
c3 e^t is a function not a constant
You have a complimentary function of the form c1 e^t + c2 t e^t
yea ok
c1 is just an arbitary constant
but how do we know it doesnt affect it
like that it would still be a solution without the complimentary one
Wdym?
why can it be removed
c1 is an arbitary constant
Which means it can take any value
c1 - c3 is also an arbitrary constant
We could give the new arbitary constant a new name, like c5
Look here
no no that wasnt the question
c1 there isnt from the solution
its from the complimentary solution
which there is a theorem for
my question was in Yp(t)
where the c of the integrals go
why if Yp(t) + c1y1+ c2y2 is a solution then Yp(t) is one basically is what im asking
Because the c1y1 + c2y2 gives 0 when you put it into the differential equation
it doesnt?
Why doesn't it?
complementary solution is the general solution to the homogeneous ode
b(t) y
What this means is that if we put y1 into this differential equation, we get 0
And the same for y2
in the homogeneous version yes
that is true
whats that gotta do with the non homogeneous
So let's say the non-homogeneous equation has a solution yp
we call it Yp(t)
p as in particular
yes and we find that Yp(t) = f(t) + yc(t) is a particular solution
now the page here proceeds to say this means also Yp(t) = f(t) is a solution
If we have y1 + y2 + yp, and we put them in, we get:
d^2/dt^2(y1 + y2 + yp) + a(t) d/dt(y1 + y2 + yp) + b(t) (y1 + y2 + yp) = f(t)
d^2/dt^2(y1) + a(t) d/dt(y1) + b(t) y1 + d^2/dt^2(y2) + a(t) d/dt(y2) + b(t) y2 + d^2/dt^2(yp) + a(t) d/dt(yp) + b(t) yp = f(t)
0 + 0 + d^2/dt^2(yp) + a(t) d/dt(yp) + b(t) yp = f(t)
d^2/dt^2(yp) + a(t) d/dt(yp) + b(t) yp = f(t)
So adding on c y1 + c y2 onto our function makes no difference

not sure how to start
inclusion-exclusion tbh.
let S_1 = {f : A -> A s.t. f(1)=1}, S_2 = {f : A -> A s.t. f(2)=2} and so on.
apply incl-excl on these 5 sets
but that would take a long time wouldnt it
is there an easier way?
not that long a time
Isn't this problem something you've already gone over with Renato? Or at least very similar
@kind viper
if you realize theres a lot of symmetry in the problem
I guess we can apply derrangement
tfw selfping
oh
uhhhhhh i dont remember if i went over it with renato
probably not
thats like the !n thing right
Yes
We can find the ones where none are at the right place
That will save some time
so thats !5 ?
5! - !5
so 5! is the total number of permutations and the !5 is the number of permutations where none stay at the same place but why do we subtract?
I havent seen this notation
you want the ones where something stays in place.

this is what i got so far
you already solved it
this is trivially true
but how do i express it mathematically
x+y positive, x-y)^2 positive and (xy)^2 positive ?
each term that's multiplied and divided are all positive
and that's it ?
squares of real numbers are always positive, yes
alright
yes
thank you very much
if you don't have any more questions abt this problem, you can .close

i need help i dunno how to start
or what to do
what notation is this
Coords
wym by notation
notation is a system of how you write stuff
so this is a 3d space and those are x y z coords?
u mean first x then y then z
howd you check diagonals so fast without d wth
visually, see the difference between A and B, and apply a negative value of that exact change onto C, it should land on a new point D
so, if B is 1left, 1up from A, D is 1right, 1down from C
formally idk
this had a standard result too for the remaining coordinate, but the basic idea behind it was that bisection occurs at the intersection point of the diagonal
how do i know if i needa do a+c/2 = b+d/2 or a+b/2 = c+d/2 ...
when a parallelogram is named abcd, the vertices are joined from a to b to c to d
that means a is at the opposite of c
sure thats one way to do it, the vectors on lhs and rhs will be the same vector that points to the center of the parallelogram
but thats not what others meant when they say diagonals bisect each other
actually this is indeed related to diagonals bisecting each other but it doesnt appear in an intuitive and visual way so
i would see that AB = CD, so i let vectorAB = -vectorCD
😭
what else do you need?
ykw
solving this doesnt necessarily require the use of vectors
negative sign in front of a vector means that this vector that points to the opposite direction
vectorOC and vectorOD can both contain just positive numbers really
vectorAB is not made from adding the coordinates of A and B
i prefer you use this method if youre that confused
how much did you learn about vectors
not much
this is the task we did the last time in schoon before the homework
its translated with chatgpt so idk if its accurate
and this
thats mostly it with vectors
oh wait now i know whats wrong
im so dumb
holy
now its correct right ?
vectorCD points in the opposite direction of AB, your vectorCD should be (-6, -2, -6)
if this is wrong now ill just quit this stupid hw
looks correct
what does the 0 means in 0A or 0B
origin, the point O, at (0,0)
since ur working with vectors i thought id do it the traditional way
i followed up on this method
if you just do A+C, youre better off treating it as a coordinates question, with (A+C)/2 being the midpoint of AC
if you do it like me, then (vectorOA + vectorOC)/2 would be a vector pointing from O to the midpoint of AC

.reopen
✅
wait 1 last question how do i check now if its an rhombus
does lineAB have the same length as lineBC?
no, so it isnt an rhombus?
right, its not a rhombus, because a rhombus needs all 4 sides equal…
yeah
oh perfect
but since you are given c, just use c why not
what i just did, did not involve vectors, no need to overthink stuff
oh ye i got an question about this, where did the 1/2 go on both sides ?
like u jsut vanished them
and u did that because if u would did /2 it just would be the half of the diagonal and not the full length
more like, if i did /2, then lhs is 2,2,2, and rhs is some ugly abomination that slows me down
i need x,y,z, i dont need x/2, y/2, z/2
but then why did u wrote a+c/2 = b+d/2 and not just a+c=b+d
because thats how you wrote it, and it also shows that the thought behind it was about bisecting diagonals

Why does variance even matter in statistics
it measures how spread-out a given data set is from its mean
In probability theory and statistics, variance is the expected value of the squared deviation from the mean of a random variable. The standard deviation (SD) is obtained as the square root of the variance. Variance is a measure of dispersion, meaning it is a measure of how far a set of numbers is spread out from their average value. It is the se...
say, someone uses statistics to investigate an aging population
city A and B have the same mean, at 40, but the var of A is low, meaning most people are around that age, few teens and kids and elderly; while the var of B is high, theres more teens.
youd know that city A is gonna face a crisis in 25 years where they cant retire
And does the interpretation of the value of the variance depend on the mean
Well yeah but I mean you would interpret something with a mean of 16 and a variance of 8 differently from something like a mean of 250 and a variance of 8
uh that depends on context ofc
if its lifetime of a product, ofc id trust the ones with mean lifetime of 250 months over 16 months
if its lies spoken per person, then id trust the community with 16 avg lies than 250 lies
Okay fair enough
I'm just not entirely sure how to interpret a value of variance though
Is there any reason to use it over standard deviation ?
high variance of product quality ratings, youd have to replace your factory belt
uh
with var, you can do some math on it and analyse ur dataset further
Oh okay so SD is kinda just an application of variance then?
yeah
what i told you about interpreting var, they all apply to sd, and usually sd is given
var is just convenient in formulas
you gotta convert sd to var to do that
Okay I'm just doing AP Statistics so I'm not really sure how much I'll use it
Oh well I'm in high school lol
AP is like taking a college class in high school and you take a test at the end of the year on everything to determine whether you get credit for it or not
i just didnt study stats in high school, i have courses starting from uni which doesnt have a complete syllabus for the entire subject

Hiiii
Can someone help me? with my math?😭🙏
what is it?
Percentage
Hi, you can just post your question! Someone will help you
Sureeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee tysm>_<
im so bad at that sorry i cant help
oh
dw
Xavier is still here:D
In 2012 there was an election for the president of France. The two candidates were Monsieur Hollande and Monsieur Sarkozy. These are the numbers of votes cast in two regions of France. In the paragraph- Candidate | M Hollande | M Sarkozy Paris | 60459 | 447499 Corsica | 70148 | 88799 Find the percentage of the regional vote for M Hollande in: a. Paris b. Corsica.
It's gonna be ez for you
Here
Oki
There are 100 candies in total
You take 20 of them
What percentage of the candies did you take
80%?
Why do you think so
U need percentage right?
Yes
so 20/100 x 100%?
Good, and how much is that
Good
20/100 x 100**%**
Now let's do the same in the problem
Sure:D
Yea
And then do the same calculation
It says just 60459
OMG wrong
M Hollande
Paris 560459
Now what's the total in Paris
Ah gonna trust you on this
SOO
Percentage for Hollande?
right?
560459/ the total
560459 + 447499
the total
it's
560459/1007858
Result:
0.55603408078511
,calc 560459+447499
Result:
1.007958e+6
You've added them wrong
Just use a calculator are you not allowed to
it is allow
Just use it then
Well it's the same calculation just with different numbers
Ok
the answer is = 44.13% right?
,calc 70148/(70148+88799)
Result:
0.44132949977036
Yeah
Sure, feel free to post another question
really?
Yes
it's 35.94% right?:D
,calc 23/64
Result:
0.359375
Yup
No it's still tennis
67.53%
Read the table properly
It's okay
41/64 x 100
Yes
,calc 41/64
Result:
0.640625
hehe:D

Lord help me
Question 5
Cant do this for the life of me
How tf do u simplify factorials man
,rotate
whatd you try and get
never cross product when dealing with factorials lol
Oops
?
no like what does the notation of factorial mean for (r+1)!
n!=n(n-1)(n-2)...
Well yeah r is contained in it
r!
I just dont know hwo to express that
(r+1)r!
(Aside, do you need to express the sum in terms of f(r) or just find a general closed form?)
Uhhhhhhhh
Just general i think?? But obv u gotta use f(r) bc what other way is there
I have arrived here
Idk how id get to the general term of the series with this tho
you want to make it look similar to the expression in the sum, so you may write it in the form of f(r)
firstly its negative which isnt ideal
how would you change it?
@turbid canopy Has your question been resolved?
Multiply by -1 no?
How do u get to that n+2 in the denom
f(r)-f(r+1)=...
r=...?
Dunno..
you want to plug in a number into r such that it resembles the expression
("a number" which contains n)
r = n - 1 ?
r=n+1
Wait why
(r+1)r!=(r+1)(r)(r-1)...
AkitoLite
it very much resembles $$\frac{n+1}{(n+2)!}$$
AkitoLite
i mean just from looking youll see the substitution
to make it look like the summ expression
I thought u could only do that by multiplying or dividing
its similar to having 3 eqn with 3 variables
Like with integrals
i mean
You cant add anything but you can multiply outside
