same thing
alright
so we're trying to solve
$-2 = log_c (b)(-1-h))$
$-1 = log_2 b(x-h)$
for $b$
that is the original query, yes?
Mirror
are we solving for b or h?
i thought we were trying to solve for b
well we cant
u cant find b cause as we just tried
it gives these
unless we substitute but substituting 0,5/(0-h) is another monster
so we can find h then b
kk in which case we are now solving $\frac{-1}{2h} = \frac{1}{4(-1-h)}$
Mirror
great so now we set them equal to each other and solve
0,5(-1 -h) = 0,25(0-h)
solving yields $h=-2$

nop
or, rather, it is an infinite sum, but the answer to the question is not infinite
16 + ( 16(0.75)+16(0.75)^2...)
is the the sieries no?
yep alright
Is my Series correct tho?
yes. a better way to say that mathematically is that the ball bounces to a height of 16 + 2$\sum_{1}^{\infty} 16(0.75)^n$
is this taking into account the round trip?
it has to climb up to 75% of 16 meters and then fall the same distance
Mirror
Is there even a way to use the caculator to caculate the infinite Sigma?
OR you have to use the formula a / 1- r
i would strongly advise you use the formula yeah
Alrigth but i will assume just putting a really large number n the caculator would also work?
it might but it wouldn't be precise
using the formula would probably be faster than trying to get a calculator to compute a sum
make sure you set the formula up right with the a/(1-r)
because it assumes sum from 0 to n and we're summing from 1 to n
Alright but my textbook says if r < 1, Sn = a(1-r^n)/1-r is this true but for finite?
Sorry but I still dont understand the actual point for a(1-r^n) / 1- r
Bungo
and it's valid for any $r \neq 1$
Bungo
When do I use that formila

ahk
alright but another question is the Infitiy formula only for GP or Ap? Or is it able to work for both
no we're only talking about geometric series here
Can AP's have an infinite Sum?
nope
well not a convergent sum anyway
a series can't converge unless the terms go to zero, and that doesn't happen in an arithmetic progression unless it's the trivial one 0,0,0,0,...
So if a question gives you a series that is nto a GP and not AP rather a recursive ( i think that what its called) how would you solve that?
Meaning you need to break it up and make 2 different ones?
no i mean in general, series don't have a formula for the sum at all
do you have an example in mind?
I only have this really simple one
where you just Fidn the difference then you would see the difference is multiple of 3's
7-5 = 2
13 - 7 = 6
31 = 13 = 18
....
try subtracting 4 from every term
Then you just do 5 + Sn = 2 / 1 - 3
i don't understand your formula
obviously the infinite series won't converge, it's asking you to find a formula for the sum of the first n terms
Sorry
5 + (2(3^n-1) / (3-1) ) = 5 + (3^n-1) = 3^n - 4 no?
the formula doesn't work for n = 1, does it?
i found the answer to be $(8n + 3^n - 1)/2$
Bungo
How?
hmm wait let me double check that
That was the solution - i dont actually understand some parts first Why is it 3 ^n-1 and not jst 3^n
Oh is it because I left out the 5 so i would be double counting another digit in its place if i didnt?
i don't know, how did you compute it?
is the purple text screenshot your work or someone else's that you're comparing with?
lemme just derive the formula here
its the solutions
$A = 1 + r + r^2 + r^3 + \dots + r^{n-1}$
$rA = r + r^2 + r^3 + r^4 + \dots + r^n$
$(r-1)A = r^n - 1$
$A = \frac{r^n - 1}{r-1}$
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
detailed explanation why the sum works @sonic wedge
yeah thats the proof? i waas talking about my question
Also what happen to the A
infront ofthe r^n - 1
just wanted to resolve your confusion
subtract $rA$ with $A$
1 divided by 0 equals Infinity
the terms at each RHS cancels out
Yep so the other proof is just same thing but you add them / andnot times by r
Confused n this step how did we get from 4 to 4n
there are n terms, so you are adding 4 n times
thx
you are summing from k=0 to k=n-2, so you have n-1 terms here
when they are finding S_n, they are summing from k=1 to k=n, which is n terms

@kind viper tu parle français?
don't ping helpers specifically unless they asked you to, there's plenty of other french speakers that could help you out here
Si
my bad
Si la tangente est parallèle à L, alors la pente de la tangente doit être la même que la pente de L
Du coup c’est quoi la pente de L?
L c’est une ligne là
ouais
x+y-2=0
!noping
Please do not ping individual helpers unprompted.
i got it covered ann
ok
yeah we get it amigo
Donc avec l’équation de L la pente de la droite ça te dit rien?
Ou taux de variation
En gros si t’écris l’équation de la droite comme y=ax+b, a c’est la pente de b c’est l’ordonnée à l’origine
Du coup là si tu réécris l’équation t’as y = -x+2
ah ouais
La pente c’est donc -1, et n’importe quelle droite parallèle à celle-ci aura aussi une pente de -1
Et justement ta dérivée te donne expressément la pente de la droite tangente à un abscisse donné de la fonction
Du coup tu recherches les abscisses où la dérivée vaut …
comment
je peu ecrire que pente de L est -1 alors sachant que c est sur L
alors f’(c) est -1?
Oui. Pourvu que la pente de la tangente à un point est -1, elle sera parallèle à L. Donc ces points sont exactement ceux d’abscisse où la dérivée vaut -1.
Trouve x d’abord en résolvant f’(x) = -1
Après pour ces solutions tu peux leur appliquer f pour avoir l’ordonnée correspondant

I didn't understand last two
there are a lot less rational numbers than real/complex numbers
Yeah the how did they mention it infinity?@hushed magnet
if you have a finite dim vector space over Q then its still just countable
but R and C are not countable

Renato
which part
@strange pendant Has your question been resolved?
to prove that it's an equivalence relation, show that it's reflexive, symmetric, and transitive
reflexive: a ~ a
symmetric: a ~ b implies b ~ a
transitive: (a ~ b and b ~ c) implies a ~ c
i don't even know how to explain it
for reflexivity
a)
what you wrote is correct
well, you can just write x = x, no need for x = x iff x = x
okay then because of the equality relation is an equivalence relation then the other properties follow
yes
no no no no you dont understand. obviously you need to write a minimum of
```
x = x iff x = x iff x = x iff x = x iff x = x iff x = x
(sarcasm)
i mean it is a general fact that if a relation is defined by x ~ y iff f(x) = f(y) for a function f then ~ is an equivalence relation
here f happens to be the base ten digit sum function
how can i justify in short for a)
a ~ a means ds(a) = ds(a), which is true either obviously or by reflexivity of =
a ~ b means ds(a)=ds(b), which means ds(b)=ds(a) [by symmetry of =], which means b ~ a
a R b , b R c => a R c because of transitivity of =
what about b) how many numbers between 1 and 10000 have digits which sum to 2
b) 11000, 10100, 10010, 10001, 01001, 01010, 01100, 00101, 00110, 00011, that's 10
c) 1,2,3,4...,27
@reef bronze
i don't have the answers can someone check my stuff
11000 is too big
There's also numbers like 200
b) 2000, 00200, 00020, 0002, 01001, 01010, 01100, 00101, 00110, 00011
You still have some numbers that are too big
no
Oh sorry
Seems right
2000, 200, 20, 2, 1001, 1010, 1100, 101, 110, 11
what about c)?
Yeah 27 seems right
wait but it's 27 or 28
@reef bronze
between 1 and 27 there's 27 or 28 numbers?
27
ok

so thats the answer right
thats what i have, 2 is the det(A)
how did the just delete the second vector
i understand how they got -2
it goes -, -, so its positive and then i take the minus one out
and it goes
-1 * |A|
but why is the second det = 0?
wait
do i just need to calculate it myself?
or is there like a property i can use on it?

question is asking for the volume of the shape that forms when the highlighted area rotates around the x axis.
what I did; got the equation of the line, being y=3-x, and when y=1 then x = the radius of the cone that will form aka 2. and the height of the cone is just 3-1 = 2.
so the volume should be 1/3 * pi * (2)^2 * 2
and the volume i calculated is 8/3 pi
so, waht went wrong?
wait-
okay the way I imagiend it had it be rotated around y-axis

Can anybody explain this?
which line exactly
Its essentially splitting it into circular discs
The radius of any disc is just the current value of the function
So the equation should be that squared times pi
And that needs to be integrated to get the volume of the sphere
it explains (the integrand is even)

false? bro we have to prove lhs=rhs
tanx+cotx=2 cant be proven
bruh
why
yess
because it is not true for all values of x
instead we might just might have to find the value of x
which would be 45?
but we can still prove it
hasnt the question given you a condition?
no
a proof must be correct for all cases
the question is ass
no?
yes
no
we can turn cotx into 1/tanx and form a quadratic equation
indeed
yes and from that we will get all values of x for which this is true
not prove it
you cant just say that every value of tanx+cotx=2 just because it was correct for x=45
like say for example, x=60

okk i get ...to solve it the way im saying we need the given to be Equal to zero..right.?
no
you have to find x for this
actually same thing
but not making it equal 0 is easier
okk
$\frac{sinx}{cosx} + \frac{cosx}{sinx} = 2$
noonebtw
noonebtw
you should be able to find x on your own now
1/cosx sinx =2?
uh huh
so ...
i dont get it
Ok Imma walk you through it
brb amma get a pen and paper
multiply both sides by cosxsinx
2cosxsinx =1
now
$sin2A=2sinAcosA$
considering cosxsinx is not equal to 0
noonebtw
so replace 2cosxsinx with sin2x
noonebtw
therefore, $2A=90$
noonebtw
A = x
I am just using A because I am used to it
so how can we say 2A=90.
i get it
$A=45^\circ$
I am getting used to it 😅
noonebtw
how did we get 1?
oh no i mean
wait😭
what happened to 2sinxcosx
$2sinxcosx=sin2x$
noonebtw
bro 😭😭😭😭
what
i dont get it
son
daughter*
have you learned the formula for 2sinAcosB
no?
bro
what is your teacher doing
genuinely
✌️
bro i just got introduced to this chapter man
do you have your book
yes
what is it
find the formula for 2sinAcosB
in your book
expand this yourself
Its a good time to learn
you tell me bro😭
If I told you you'd probably forget it
is it sixcosx=1
no
naah naah tell me
fine
$2sinxcosx=sin(x+x)+sin(x-x)$
noonebtw
btw, general formula:
$2sinAcosB = sin(A+B) + sin(A-B)$
noonebtw
$2sinxcosx=sin(2x)+sin(0)$
noonebtw
therefore, $2sinxcosx=sin(2x)$
noonebtw
hmm
just know for now that ts = sin2x
no need to cry :)
ok
thnx
mhm
so, $sin2x=1$
noonebtw
noonebtw
now just imagine that we're cancelling sin from both sides
yeah i got it from here
bruh
we are comparing right?
yeah you can do both
ok
at the end, $2x=90^\circ$
noonebtw
well, 2x = 90° + k*360°, but that's it
so x = 45° + k*180°, so on [0°,360°) you have two solutions
If the question was to solve for all values of x, it's kinda needed
this works as principal solution
x != 0?
guys..i js realised in the question it was already given tanx+cotx=2 to prove smt else
🫠🫡
cool
When did I say x = 0
oh wait sorry
bruhhh
That's why we have !xy

we had to find the value of secx+tanx

Firstly you have to eliminate the parameter t from the equations to get the real curve
I see
Have you tried anything further?
Now for finding the volume of a curve which is being revolved around the x axis we can integrate πy^2 dx between the limits of intersection of the curve with the x axis
Yes

why are you supposed equate real and complex derivatives to get riemann cauchy equations? why must real derivative equal complex derivative?
if a complex limit exists, it must be the same along all possible paths
similar to how in the real case the sided limits must be the same
i see
thanks for the analogy
so you understand the first 3 steps?
ur just equating 2 complex numbers so they must have the same real and imaginary parts

how would i solve this by pure angle chasing and extension of lines?
i was thinking to drop a height from E to AC but idk
First find angle AED
i did
Then you can find angle AEC and after that angle ACE

i have no clue how to solve this
how do i find the period of a composite function
the period of sinnx is 2pi/n
the period of tanx/n is npi
should be n=6
i think like cos(sin(nx)) is negligible
or just think when the whole thing evaluates to 0
i know but i wanna know how to find for composite functions
you know the definition of periodic function right ?
its given fxn is periodic with period 6π
so f (x + 6π) = f(x)
try using this @robust flicker
is there a way to work from the inside
i didn't get you
this idea should solve your problem
bro its given in question that fxn is periodic with period 6π
you find f(x+6π) and equate it to f(x)
to find f(x+6π) put x = x +6π in f(x)

How did it get x=28mod 20
From 3x' - 20y' = 4 you can mod 20 to get 3x' = 4(mod 20)
they want a linear expression to find all the solutions easily
same way you solve the diophantine earlier
yes
Yea but this didn't want anything, just the integers
But now they want an expression which idk whr the mod20 comes from
if there is a single solution to a diophantine , then there must be infinite
the solutions of x in
9x = 60y + 12 is your answer
Can I assume that whenever I get the value of x, then I just use the modn in formula ax= b(modn) to get x expression ?
yeah
How u get this
we know that 12 i remainder after dividing 9x by 60 right
Oh nvm jus yea
that is definition of mod
But the answer is 28mod20 tho, not the converting it into algebraic expression
same thing
they js converted the linear expression to mod
by taking mod of the coefficient of the parameter we will use
although doing it by modulo is easier
i forgor how we used to do thay
So ur saying 9x =12 mod 60 is equivalent to 9x-12 =60y which also equals to x=28mod20
not exactly equal
the solutions of x in the equation
are of the form
x = 28 mod 20
Ok so whwt does the mod20 means
no
god damn it diophantine is a fancy way of saying ts is an equation that wants you to find the integer solutions
🥀
the formula that is used to calculate any arbitary solution of a diophantine gives this

x = x' + (coeff of y)/gcd of coefficients* t

t is the arbitary constant
that gives different values of x
its like a parameter
Ohhh
Like vectors
Is it like a point , den when u add lambda, it becomes a line
yep
So 28 is like the point and mod20 is the lambda so it won't exceed and within that range
it does not become a line
it gives out all the points on the line
it is still a point
Yeayea
but defines the line
lambda would be t here
mod is just a shorter way of represeting this
Whennit says x=8mod20, it is saying x=8 right which is also the remainder
Correct?
That's your final expression for the solutions of the equation.
Any x which 8 more than a multiple of 20, i.e . x = 8+20k is a solution.
Ayo this is clear now
The main things to keep in mind are that
- you can divide through your equation by the gcd, so 9x = 12 (mod 60) becomes 3x = 4 (mod 20)
- once you have that you can use the euclidean algorithm to figure out what x value works
- any such value of x you get mod 20 will be a solution
where did you learn your number theory from broski @thick comet
Oh yea, dumahh teacher tell me to Euclidean algorithm first then extended Euclidean algorithm
Yeah extended would be more appropriate to get the coefficients back
I did maths and compsci, so algebra and cryptography
It becomes pretty much the same in any similar exercises, so you should get comfortable quickly!

what are p adic numbers essentially about , how to get an intuitive idea of them
In number theory, given a prime number p, the p-adic numbers form an extension of the rational numbers that is distinct from the real numbers, though with some similar properties; p-adic numbers can be written in a form similar to (possibly infinite) decimals, but with digits based on a prime number p rather than ten, and extending to the left r...

Where’d I go wrong?
Any context?
Elliot Pixel
Damn 😂
wait
I asked chatgpt and I think the problem was that I wrote this:
$o^2p^2=15x^{-2i-2j-1}$
$o^3p=-\frac{15}{4}x^{4-3i-j}$
$o^4=x^{10-4i}$
Eq 2 yields $p=-\frac{15}{4}o^{-3}x^{4-3i-j}$
Eq 3 yields $o=\pm(x^{10-4i})^{\frac{1}{4}}$
$o=\pm x^{\frac{5}{2}-i}$
$p=-\frac{15}{4}(\pm x^{\frac{5}{2}-i})^{-3} \cdot x^{4-3i-j}$
4p=\pm \frac{15}{4}x^{-\frac{7}{2}-j}$
Elliot Pixel
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
I can't do latex
$o^2 p^2 = 15 x^{-2i - 2j - 1}$ \
$o^3 p = -\frac{15}{4} x^{4 - 3i - j}$ \
$o^4 = x^{10 - 4i}$ \
\text{Eq 2 yields } p = -\frac{15}{4} , \bigl(o^{-3} , x^{4 - 3i - j}\bigr)$ \
\text{Eq 3 yields } o = \pm (x^{10 - 4i})^{\frac{1}{4}}$ \
$o = \pm x^{\frac{5}{2} - i}$ \
$p = -\frac{15}{4} (\pm x^{\frac{5}{2} - i})^{-3} \cdot x^{4 - 3i - j}$ \
$p = \pm \frac{15}{4} x^{-\frac{7}{2} - j}$

You're squaring both of them, so if anything the the sign you get for p doesn't matter

✅ Original question: #help-43 message
It's $^{-3}$
Elliot Pixel
I mean that after in the end when you check equation 2, it shouldn't matter whether you chose plus or minus, so that's not where it went wrong
Since o has no coefficients, all the coefficient comes from p, which has coefficient -15/4.
But that squared is 225/16 != 15.
Yeah I wrote 225/16
Yeah and that's correct
My point is that the first equation can't be satisfied
So if you're looking for functions o(x) and p(x), there aren't any.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say sorry
I'm just not sure exactly what you're solving for
That's just a very weird problem
In any case
My point above is that o is pure x.
The only coefficients out the front of o^2 p ^2 are from powers of p.
Yeah ik I'm just playing around to get intuitive
If those are equations you came up with I'm afraid you're losing your time with this. I guess the algebraic practice is good
You have 3 equations in 5 unknowns
I mean even if you fix x you'd still be solving in terms of it so you'd get an answer in terms of x and some other variable
And as you can see from your last line they're not compatible equations
I think my last line might've been wrong
It's not.
As I said the only way coefficients pop out the front of o^2 p^2 is for (-15/4)^2 to be the same as 15, and it's not
Could you elaborate on "coefficients popping out"?
If you take powers of o
You'll never get coefficients in front of it
Since its coefficient is 1
Right
So if o^2 p^2 has a coefficient (i.e. 15), it has to have come from coefficients of p
And there's no constants
But p has coefficient +-15/4, so p^2 can't possible have coefficent 15
Right
Let me show you the actual problem
This came from
Honestly I figured it out atp
Thanks for your help

Can you pin this ?
bot pinned something else
yes, I do also know about null hypothesis and h1
so to construct the EFT you need to figure out what your particular null hypothesis is
and then assume your testing data would fit the same distribution as the other data
Okay.. so how do I particularly do that
For the first question on your second picture
you suppose that the individual data have the same distribution as the sum data
So in particular the ratios stay the same across men as they are across females

Could you please do it so I can see, like work some question out step by step and send here..
im currently heading to school and do not have time to work them out
Consider the first box, it has value $\frac{46}{80} * 44 = 25.3$
WeAreIngram
So the proportion (46/80) is applied to the row's population (44)
continue that across the table
then for the chi squared tests you simply use your created values (expected) with the given (observed) and perform the necessary calculations

is this here true ?
V is the set of all recurrent sequences of order 2
a and b are parameters
i dont know but i am just afraid this point here makes me a problem
i showed that if r exists as a double root then it must sutisfy the two equations in terms of a and b
a=2r
b=-r^2
then i used this to show that the sequence satisfies the reccurence relation
so is it true?

Can I please get some help with this question?
This is my work so far, I don't know if this helps me. I don't know how to solve for x or d here or what to do.
Maybe I'm just overthinking it and I'm supposed to solve for d through inspection?
You could plug in x=-3 and solve for d
if x = -3 is an extraneous solution to your new equation
then 
Oh thank you. I misunderstood what the question was
Thanks
Can I plug -3 here for all x?
Or do I have to do that before squaring?
safer to do it in original eqn

also you don't need to square
The thing is, for x=-3 to be extraneous, you want also d+2x<0, so to cause a contradiction. Hence, after squaring both sides you should solve for d, I was a bit vague
10 because LHS=4 and RHS=16?
But that wouldn't be extraneous, would it?
What is d+2x?
Your right side
Ah
They want you to find such d, for which x=-3 would work on your squared equation, but not on the original
sqrt(3x+25)-2x?
I don't understand
sorry
When you square both sides of this, you assume d+2x >= 0
Otherwise there'd be a contradiction?
like 5=4?
But if d+2x < 0 you can't do that, else you derive false solutions, or here extraneous solutions possibly
How do I figure out what value of d satisfies this contradiction?
Does the transitive property of equality fail here because of squaring?
You would square both sides and keep in mind that you want d+2x < 0
yes
misinterpreted what it means for x to be extraneous I apologize
all good
Like this?
Oh I see, tysm! 
Yes!
Can I plug -3 here?
yes and you should
I think I did something wrong
There is a mistake
The right sides becomes -9+25=16, so you end up with 20 on the left
Oh I thought 9x4 was 45
i'm sorry
Thanks! 
Then you should get nice solutions, and one that you already know
I did it!!!

Tysm
Yes
Now the important question you should ask is, which causes x=-3 to be extraneous, so you need to pick the one, that causes a contradiction
Which means right side must become negative, since square roots yield non-negative results
So the answer is then d=2 indeed
The answer must be 2, because inputting it into the original equation makes LHS=4 and RHS=-4 so 4=-4 which is a contradiction! 
Thanks everyone

Hey guys how would I get started in deriving the formula for the corrective tilt angle to level out a turret to the horizon (or any other angle really) if the entire platform is not on level ground?
what does it mean?
@spark wigeon
The error between the tilt of the turret and the horizon changes as the turret sweeps through its local azimuth angle
azimuth here referring to the vertical Z axis' axis of rotation, left to right, right to left, etc
90 - the ground angle, probably
Depends on where exactly you're taking your angle from. Try it and see if that gives you what you want
1 sec
Wait I assumed you wanted tilt angle as a function of ground angle, but now I am re-reading and am less sure
Why might there be error values?
$E_{c}(\alpha)$, alpha being the azimuth, is what im after
$when E_{c}(\alpha) = 90 - \beta (the angle of the base relative to the ground)$

kinda a dumb question but does necessity imply possibility in modal logic?
like uh consider the statement "you are looking at a screen"
is "it is a possibility that you are looking at a screen" a true/false statement
Axiom T tells you that if P is necessary then P is possible
but grice's maxim probably would say that this is false
which model is the more conventional one..?
why would grice's maxim (which one?) say that's false
I suppose you mean the maxim of quantity. but I would highly caution mixing a pragmatic concept (a Gricean maxim) with a logical one (modal logic).
maxim of quantity
if you know smth is 100% a fact then saying it is a possibility kinda goes against 1), no?
um yeah exactly, since it's implied
"i went to the store.... and i might have gone to the store" sounds like i'm being tricky or trying to communicate some hidden information
like i imagine saying it with a 
😭 lol
but hmm okay so 1) takes precedence over athelic logic (axiom T) in a "day-to-day" regular context, right?
wdym
these support each other
the fact that i didn't mention it means it must have been implied
i mean in formal logic doesn't the necessity of P also say that P is possible
sure
so this is a true statement
but in the linguistic context
yeah it's just
to say
aka the maxim one we would say it's a false statement or the conclusion doesn't really from the premise
so now i'm curious which one is the more conventional one to fall back on
no we wouldn't
what?
we would just not mention it out loud
because why tf would i tell you something i already know you kno
wait you're right 😭
Gricean reasoning would tell you that the "possible" statement would be misleading, but I don't think it would be outright false.
okay in hindsight idk why my teacher said it was a false statement
it agrees philosophically/linguistically and mathematically
wait is there any modal framework where "necessity implies possibility" is actually false?
yeah i think it'd still be true
i was thinkinga bout smth else oops
I believe system K (Kripke) does not include axiom T by default.
yeah okay fair
i'm guesisng it doesn't involve both axiom T and axiom D
just looked it up
okay hmm i think i can live with smth like this
thank you both!
