someone help pls

minor starBOT
uneven vale
#

i have 2 exams algebra and geometry

dry locust
#

revise in class material

#

if you have a textbook use it

uneven vale
#

i have a worksheet can someone explain to me how to solve some of the questions

pine ridge
#

just post your question and people will help

molten whale
wanton oar
#

you still have time its a week !!!

uneven vale
uneven vale
#

ok im kinda bad with inequalities

#

one of my questions is 4(x+1) - 5x <= 3

#

so firstly i removed the brackets

#

4x + 4 - 5x <= 3

#

and i combined like terms

#

-x + 4 <= 3

pine ridge
#

and next?

uneven vale
#

but im not sure if i can just say that -x <= -1

pine ridge
#

as you know you cant

#

how would you solve this equation

#

-x = -4

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

well i want you to tell me the value of x

#

there is -x not x itself

#

can you guess the value of x from the equation?

uneven vale
#

4

pine ridge
#

yes!

#

and what if i tell

#

you

#

that its easy as that

#

just multiply both sides by "-"

#

by negative

#

what is negative times negative?

uneven vale
#

oh

#

wait

#

so

#

-x + 4 <= 3

#

x - 4 <= -3

#

right?

pine ridge
#

first isolate x

#

i mean

#

"-x"

uneven vale
#

wait

#

can we like do that with inequalities

pine ridge
#

the thing you did was right btw

#

but there is only one thing to remember

#

when it comes to inequality

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

yes!

#

exactly

uneven vale
#

i forgot when it switches πŸ’€

pine ridge
#

the sign just turns from < to >

#

or the oppostie

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

when you multiply by negative, the sign switches

#

i bolded it so if you wanna check you can see it easily

pine ridge
#

ok so waht would be your final answer

uneven vale
#

so we multiplied by a negative

#

and it became

#

x - 4 >= 3

#

right

pine ridge
#

no it became x-4 >= -3

uneven vale
#

oh right since 3 was positive

pine ridge
#

yez

uneven vale
#

alr thanks

#

one sec

pine ridge
#

ok so try to solve this one 6 - x >= 8

uneven vale
#

ok

#

so firstly

#

i would minus 6 from both sides

#

-x >= 2

#

and then

#

multiply both by -1

#

x <= -2

pine ridge
#

yep!

#

now try to solve this one

#

4(1-x) + x > -2

uneven vale
#

4 - 4x + x > -2

#

4 - 3x > -2

#

-3x > -6

#

-x > -2

#

x < 2

pine ridge
#

YEP!!

#

that is completely correct!

#

now lets say you somehow forgot if you are doing the right thing

#

and you wanna check if your answer is correct

#

choose a number from the interval you got

#

for example here you got x<2

uneven vale
#

what an interval πŸ’€

pine ridge
#

i mean the numbers

#

here you got x < 2

uneven vale
#

ah ok

pine ridge
#

it means that x should be less than 2

#

so pick a number for x from x < 2 and tell me if the x you picked satisfies the very first version of the inequality

uneven vale
#

oh u mean

#

wait what

pine ridge
#

you can pick any number less than 2

#

for x

uneven vale
#

Ohh ok

#

1.5

#

actually

#

1

#

for simplicity

pine ridge
#

ok great

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

ok

#

4(1-1) + 1 > -2

#

4(0) + 1 > -2

#

1 > -2

#

okok thats correct

#

i get it now

#

but can u help me

#

with square roots

#

i hate those

pine ridge
#

can you give me an example to know what type of question you are dealing with?

pine ridge
#

also its kinda rude that im helping you rn cuz two other people messaged this help forum

uneven vale
#

what symbol do i use for square roots

#

one sec let me find it on google

pine ridge
#

i mean @wanton oar and the other person that i cant ping

#

can you help him with the square root justnoor?

pine ridge
balmy timber
#

zrui7 ?

pine ridge
#

oh the legendary person is here!!

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

how is it going mate

balmy timber
uneven vale
#

so

#

for example

balmy timber
#

Alr, let’s focus on his question

uneven vale
#

(4√6 - √54 + √24) * √6

#

thats one of the questions

pine ridge
#

anyways

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

ok great can you tell me what you think about it?

uneven vale
#

im unsure kinda

pine ridge
#

tell me everything you know

uneven vale
#

like im not suppsoed to work with the product of the square root right

pine ridge
#

well first you gotta do some stuff inside of the square roots

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

and then multiply sqrt(6) to it

pine ridge
#

for example waht is the answer for sqrt(9)

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

yes!

#

now what about sqrt(16)

uneven vale
#

4

pine ridge
#

what about sqrt(25)

uneven vale
#

i know this basic stuff

pine ridge
#

exactly!

uneven vale
#

but im kinda bad in like other stuff

pine ridge
#

ok now lets use these stuff

#

the very first thing you gotta know is that sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) * sqrt(b)

uneven vale
#

√45 = √4 * √5

#

?

#

oh wait

#

u mean

#

√20 = √4 * √5

#

?

pine ridge
#

no ab means a times b

#

ah yes

#

sqrt(20)

#

that’s exactly what we are gonna do

#

So remember this and let me give you some examples

uneven vale
#

yo sorry give me 10 mins

#

i gtg eat

#

sorry

pine ridge
#

When you wanna simplify a square root, you usually try to find a multiplication that is square number, so when it comes out like sqrt(4) it will turn into 2

#

Whenever you are here, try to simplify this

uneven vale
#

hi @pine ridge

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

hello

pine ridge
#

think once more

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

oops

#

so

#

√28 = √2 * √14

#

mb

#

or

pine ridge
#

yes but that’s not simplified!

uneven vale
#

√4 * √7

#

2√7

pine ridge
#

Exactlyyy!!

#

now another one

#

sqrt(48)

uneven vale
#

2√12

pine ridge
#

πŸ”₯

#

can you simplify it even more?

uneven vale
#

yea

#

√12 = √4 * √3

#

or 2√3

pine ridge
#

Sooo, what would be your final answer?

uneven vale
#

so √12 = 4√3

#

i think'

pine ridge
#

you probably mean sqrt(48) = 4sqrt(3) which is correct!

#

You have written sqrt(12)

#

which as you said is 2sqrt(3)

#

but combining it back with 2

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

gives us 4sqrt(3)

#

Another one

#

sqrt(75)

uneven vale
#

or √

pine ridge
#

both of them are correct, because idk how to put that sign here I write sqrt

pine ridge
#

in math we don’t use sqrt on paper

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Ok nice

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Oh for coding?

#

Here both of them are correct

#

but using sqrt here is correct

uneven vale
#

ok anyways so √75

#

equals to √5 * √15

#

nonon

#

actually

#

5√3

pine ridge
#

yes!!

#

you were also doing the correct thing at first

#

sqrt(5) * sqrt(15)

#

sqrt(5). Sqrt(5) . Sqrt(3)

#

5sqrt(3)

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Now let’s actually use these stuff

#

Try to simplify the stuff first and then multiply sqrt(2) inside

uneven vale
#

alr

#

√50 = 5√2

#

√72 = 2√18

#

uhm\

pine ridge
#

now try to simplify square root of 18

uneven vale
#

√18 = 3√2

pine ridge
#

So now replace the stuff and tell me the answer!

uneven vale
#

ok

#

√2(5√2 * 2 * 3 √2)

#

√2(30√2√2)

pine ridge
#

no no

#

there is plus sign

#

you can’t multiply 5sqrt(2) to 2*3sqrt(2)

uneven vale
#

oh

#

oops

#

√2(5√2 + 2 * 3 √2)

#

so this is what we have rn?

pine ridge
#

Yep

uneven vale
#

ok

#

√2(5√2 + 6√2)

#

idk

#

maybe

pine ridge
#

so you multiply sqrt(2) to the inside

#

you get 5sqrt(2) times sqrt(2)

#

6sqrt(2) times sqrt(2)

uneven vale
#

yeah

#

im unsure

pine ridge
#

Always remember if you multiply two equal numbers in square root, the square root will be removed

#

5sqrt(2) times sqrt(2) will become 5*2

uneven vale
#

i forgot abt that πŸ˜…

#

ok

#

so

#

10 + 12

#

22

pine ridge
#

yes!

#

I gotta go right now

#

I’m sending several examples for the thing we just studied right now

#

try to solve them till I’m back!

#

maybe after 30-45mins I will be back

uneven vale
#

ok thank you for helping me

#

bye!

pine ridge
#

definitely solve them and tell me the answers

uneven vale
#

√7(2√28 - √175)

#

√7(4√7 - 5√7)

#

4 * 7 - 5 * 7

#

28 - 35

#

-7

#

then

#

√3(√27 + √12)

#

√3(3√3 + 2√3)

#

9 + 6

#

15

#

C)

#

√5(√125 - √20)

#

√5(5√5 - √20)

#

√5(5√5 - 2√5)

#

25 - 10

#

15

#

D)

#

√13(4√52 + √117)

#

√13(8√13 + 3√13)

#

104 + 39

#

143

pine ridge
#

All of them are completely correct!!

uneven vale
#

btw

#

i was a bit unsure if i had to multiply both of the multiples by the number outside the brackets

pine ridge
#

Well

#

the thing you did was correct

#

for example when you have 2x3x5 you don’t multiply 2 to each 3 and 5

#

you just do 2x3x5=6x5=30

uneven vale
#

sorry i was away

#

can u help me with a bit more complex problem ?

pine ridge
#

Gimme a hard question from your book so I can get what type of question I should give you

uneven vale
#

(4x - 3 / x + 1) - (6x - 5 / 2x + 1) = 1

#

i put fractions in brackets

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

it was a bit different

pine ridge
#

the thing you sent is almost the same as I have given here

#

isn’t it?

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

a = 1

#

b = -3

#

c = 2

#

D = b^2 - 4ac

#

-3^2 - 4(1)(2)

#

9 - 8

#

1

#

x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / 2ac

#

x1 = (3 + 1) / 4

#

x1 = 1

#

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / 2ac

#

x2 = 0.5

#

idk if this is correct

pine ridge
#

what about this one πŸ€”

uneven vale
uneven vale
#

D = 1 - 4(-6)

#

D = 1 + 24

#

D = 25

#

x1 = -1 + 5 / -12

#

x1 = 4 / -12

#

wait what

#

i dont think i did this right

#

i got -0.33333 repeating

pine ridge
#

yes

#

The denominator is 2a

pine ridge
#

The denominator is 2a and a=1 so the denominator is 2, not 12!!

uneven vale
#

isnt it 2ac

#

OHH

#

WAIT

#

nvm i mixed it up πŸ’€

#

ok

#

so then yeah its 2 ig

#

x1 = 2

pine ridge
#

Yes and the other one?

uneven vale
#

x2 = (-1 - 5) / 2

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

yep!

#

ok now let’s do this one

uneven vale
#

D = b^2 - 4ac

#

i keep forgetting that the b is positive

#

anyways

#

-2^2 - 4

#

-8

#

then

pine ridge
#

No

uneven vale
#

?

pine ridge
#

(-2)^2 = 4

#

not -4

#

b^2 = 4

uneven vale
#

oh right i forgot that sorry 😭

#

wait so D = 0

#

hows that possible

#

never seen that before

#

wait whats the square root of 0

pine ridge
#

ok look

#

if the delta is positive

#

there are two roots

#

if delta is 0, there is only one root

uneven vale
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

if delta is less than 0, there is no root

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

then I’m wrong

#

that’s probably what it is called

#

I’m not native speaker so don’t take my words seriously πŸ’€

uneven vale
#

wait one sec let me check

pine ridge
#

yes you are right that is called discriminant

uneven vale
#

i heard other people call it delta

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

I think both are correct

uneven vale
#

oh

#

well i heard one of my teachers say delta

pine ridge
#

anyways solve the question!

uneven vale
#

once

uneven vale
#

oh right so D = 0

#

x = (-b + sqrt(D)) / 2a

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Yes!

#

what if I tell you

#

+0 = -0 = 0

#

that’s why there is only one root!!

uneven vale
#

waittt thats so cool

#

😭

#

so i can write

pine ridge
#

Ikr

uneven vale
#

x = (-b + sqrt(D)) / 2a

#

or

#

x = (-b - sqrt(D)) / 2a

#

thats cool

#

anyways

#

the answer is

#

x = 1

pine ridge
#

Yep!!

#

now let’s solve harder questions!!

uneven vale
#

alr

pine ridge
#

Find the roots of the following equation

uneven vale
#

so firstly

#

i would do

#

x^2 - 4x + 3

#

like this

#

so it equals to 0

pine ridge
#

YES!

uneven vale
#

also btw discriminants only work when theres a zero right?

pine ridge
#

Yep

uneven vale
#

also

#

btw

#

when i subtract 4x from both sides

#

where do i place the negative 4x on the other part of the equation

#

like this

#

-4x + x^2 + 3

#

or like this

#

x^2 - 4x + 3

#

or this

#

x^2 + 3 - 4x

pine ridge
#

what if I tell you, all of them are correct?!1!

uneven vale
#

sorry im kinda stupid πŸ’€

pine ridge
#

1 + 2 + 3 = 6

#

2 + 1 + 3 = 6

#

3 + 2 + 1 = 6

#

see?

#

there is no difference

uneven vale
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

but writing it -4x + x^2 + 3 might make you to make mistakes

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

isnt it the same

pine ridge
#

that is the same

#

but like you might place -4 as β€œa”

#

but in fact a is the coefficient of x^2

#

not anything in the equation

#

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

#

is the general form

#

but you can write it bx + ax^2 + c = 0 as well

#

but the formula would stay the same!

uneven vale
#

ohh nonono i place the "a" as the number raised to the highest power

#

also

#

btw

pine ridge
#

Great!!

uneven vale
#

how do i use

#

like 4 numbers

#

if that makes sense

pine ridge
#

I didn’t get sorry

#

give an example

uneven vale
#

why was my message deleted

#

weird

pine ridge
#

maybe I will get it

uneven vale
#

for example

#

x^3 - 3 = 0

pine ridge
#

there is no formula!

#

You solve these types of questions with algebra

#

in fact, quadratic equations are solved with algebra as well

uneven vale
#

wdym

pine ridge
#

For example take a look this example that you solved not long ago

#

this expression on the left

#

Will turn into (x-2)(x+3)

#

then we know that if one of them is 0, then everything would become zero! (Why?)

#

x-2 = 0. x=2

#

x+3=0. X=-3

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

the same roots you found earlier

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

You firstly write x as -2x + 3x

uneven vale
#

oh

#

nvm

#

i get what u mean now

pine ridge
#

Then you factor out x and 3 as shown below

uneven vale
#

why would u do that tho πŸ’€

pine ridge
pine ridge
#

I mean

#

for expressions like x^3 -2x^2 +5x -4 = 0

#

you have to factor out

#

there is no formula (there are some methods like finding one root and dividing by x-root but you don’t have to know that now!)

#

ok you were solving this problem

uneven vale
#

ok i will take that into account

pine ridge
#

what are the roots

uneven vale
#

one sec

#

let me do it again

pine ridge
#

oh did you find the roots?

#

no you didn’t

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

find the roots and we will solve even harder problems after this one!!

uneven vale
#

x^2 - 4x + 3 = 0

#

a = 1

#

b = -4

#

c = 3

#

D = 16 - 12

#

D = 4

#

x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / 2a

#

x1 = 3

#

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) /2a

#

4 - 2 / 2

#

x2 = 1

#

also

#

btw

pine ridge
#

Yep!!

uneven vale
#

can i use ur pictures

pine ridge
#

yes ofc

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

feel free to use them

uneven vale
#

so i can like send it to my teacher in case he asks what im studying rn

uneven vale
uneven vale
#

btw @pine ridge can we solve smt else

#

other than the discriminants

#

right now

#

because

#

my exam is on saturday

#

and i havent really studied the other topics

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

i think theres even a bit of geometry in it

pine ridge
#

this last one is an amazing problem

pine ridge
#

I want you to take a deep breath and think about this problem

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

find the value of m, such that the equation below only has one root!

uneven vale
#

what the flip

pine ridge
#

you know what’s funny about this problem

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

you gotta use the quadratic formula twice lol

#

anyways

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

what is the rule of having only 1 root?

uneven vale
#

i was thinking its that or u just ignore m completely

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

ok now write D based on m

uneven vale
#

uhm

#

but wait

#

there's no exponents

#

how can u do

#

the quadratic discriminant formula

pine ridge
#

There is x^2

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

And also there is x with coefficient-2m

uneven vale
#

ok let me think ig

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

wait no

#

fistly

#

u assign the a b c

#

no?

pine ridge
#

what is a here?

uneven vale
#

b = -2

pine ridge
#

Ok what about b

uneven vale
#

c = 2

pine ridge
#

what is multiplied to x

uneven vale
#

waitttt

pine ridge
#

Now what is c?

uneven vale
#

we are gonna have variables in the formula itself? 😭

pine ridge
#

Yeah lol

uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

D = (-2m)^2 - 4(1)(2m)

#

D = 4m - 8m

#

i think

pine ridge
#

4m^2

#

but yeah that’s correct

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

(-2m)^2 = 4m^2

#

-2m * -2m = 4m^2

uneven vale
#

ohhh

#

wait nvm

#

πŸ’€

#

im dumb

#

bro

#

for some reason

pine ridge
#

Nah it’s just a mistake

uneven vale
#

i thought the 4 was also to the power of 2

#

i hate using the ^ sign

pine ridge
#

lol

uneven vale
#

so i got confused

pine ridge
#

got it

uneven vale
#

ok so 4m^2 - 8m

pine ridge
#

and what does that equal to?

uneven vale
pine ridge
pine ridge
#

well

#

not simplifying

#

but factoring

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Yes

uneven vale
#

oohh

pine ridge
#

so D should equal 0

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Yes!

#

so what is the value of m according to 4m^2 - 8m = 0

pine ridge
#

You can use quadratic formula or you can factor out

uneven vale
#

omg

#

i just realizxed

uneven vale
#

(btw what does factor out mean)

pine ridge
#

Factoring is like this:

#

2x + 4 you factor out 2 so you get 2(x+2)

uneven vale
#

oh

#

4m^2 - 8m = 0

#

a = 4

#

b = -8

#

c = 0

#

D = b^2 - 4ac

#

D = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(0)

#

D = 64 - 0

#

i think

#

oh ok thats nice that i didnt forget the zero

#

anyways

#

D = 64

#

so sqrt(D) = 8

#

since D > 0

#

there are 2 roots

#

x1 = (-b + 8) / 2a

#

x1 = (16) / 8

#

x1 = 2

pine ridge
#

Not x ofc, we are finding β€œm”

#

we are using formula on β€œm”

uneven vale
#

i forgot 😭

pine ridge
#

No worries

uneven vale
#

ok well m1 = 2 i guess

#

m2 = (-b - 8) / 2a

#

m2 = 0

pine ridge
#

Exactly!!

uneven vale
#

because 0 divided by anything is zero

pine ridge
#

this is the hardest question you can face in the stuff related to quadratic formula

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

yes!

#

it’s good to know hard problems

#

I’m sure you agree with!

#

ok now what’s the next topic we gonna be practicing

uneven vale
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

xD

#

not defined

uneven vale
#

anyways

#

i got my sheets

pine ridge
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

so question #1 on my worksheet is pretty loong

#

let me actually draw it

pine ridge
#

ah man I hate long questions πŸ’€

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

ok before you do it

uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

bro math people are goofy 😭

pine ridge
#

lol

uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

that’s so nice

#

alright anyways what’s the problem you wanted to send?

#

I suggest β€œibis paint” if you wanna draw this kinda stuff

#

it’s free

uneven vale
uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

also nowadays u can get paid apps for free

It’s not a good thing to do but yes you can

pine ridge

πŸ’€

pine ridge
#

great πŸ’€

#

ok the first thing is to know how simplifying works

#

before solving that problem

#

solve this one:

uneven vale
#

bro is cookin in procreate πŸ”₯

pine ridge
#

How would you simplify this fraction

uneven vale
#

well

#

i guess we can remove x + 3

pine ridge
#

Correct!

uneven vale
#

lets gooo πŸ—£οΈπŸ”₯

#

btw

#

@pine ridge

pine ridge
#

And then what other stuff you can simplify?

uneven vale
#

do u code

pine ridge
#

don’t mind that β€œgame dev” thing in my bio

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

I just installing β€œunreal engine” and then did nothing xD

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

ok one sec let me just show u smt cool

uneven vale
#

or college idk

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

πŸ€“

pine ridge
#

Nice!!

#

alright man

#

I’m sorry I gotta go

#

my battery is low

uneven vale
#

oh

#

alr

#

will u come back?

pine ridge
#

search β€œsimplifying fractions” on the internet and watch some videos

uneven vale
#

check this out i made a snake game with accelaration and other cool stuff

pine ridge
#

WOW

pine ridge
#

THATS AWESOME

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Probably we will study tomorrow

uneven vale
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

That’s actually very nice to see you have made that thing

#

I always wanted to learn coding

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

ok I gotta go

#

last question

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Do u know coding?

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

And what language (I mean c++ or c# etc)

#

Oh ok!

uneven vale
#

i tried C++ before

pine ridge
#

c++

uneven vale
#

i like it but im more focuesed on python rn

pine ridge
#

πŸ’€

#

c++ is very hard compared to other ones

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

anyways cya later mate!

uneven vale
#

bro what are these emojis πŸ’€

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

How is it going

uneven vale
#

i finished some of my subjects

pine ridge
#

Great to hear!

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

but i didnt watch any math vids today

pine ridge
#

Oh

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

Oh nice

uneven vale
#

anyways

#

remember how we did discriminants yesterday?

pine ridge
#

Yes

#

?

uneven vale
#

can we solve some examples

#

on my worksheet

#

with discriminants

pine ridge
#

Ofc!

#

Send those bad boys

uneven vale
#

alr

#

question 2

#

7 - 1/2x^2 = 0

pine ridge
#

Alright

uneven vale
#

a = 1/2

#

b = 0

pine ridge
#

Yes!

uneven vale
#

c = 7

uneven vale
#

-1/2

#

i used to make mistakes with forgetting negatives before a lot πŸ˜‚

pine ridge
#

Lol

uneven vale
#

alr so D = b^2 - 4ac

#

D = 0^2 - 4(1/2)(7)

#

D = -2(7)

#

D = -14

#

wait what

pine ridge
#

No

uneven vale
#

no roots?

pine ridge
#

You said a=-1/2

#

So -4ac

uneven vale
#

oh right

#

i forgot that one more negative

#

πŸ’€

#

-4(-1/2)(7)

#

2(7)

#

so 14

pine ridge
#

These negatives be ruining every thing πŸ’€

uneven vale
#

fr πŸ’€

#

x1 = -b + sqrt(D)

#

x1 = sqrt(D)

#

is that even a thing

#

square root of 14

pine ridge
#

Yes!

#

Just write sqrt(14)

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

It's a number close to 4

uneven vale
#

x1 = sqrt(14)

#

x2 = -b - sqrt(D)

#

so basically the same thing but negative

#

one sec

pine ridge
#

Bro's one second is way longer than our one second πŸ’€

uneven vale
#

sorry i had to go eat

uneven vale
#

i might go again now tho

pine ridge
#

no problem

uneven vale
#

i got school tmmrw

#

also idk where u live but for me its like the evening time but i like to sleep early if i can

#

anyways so my math exam is in 3 days i think

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

bro uses random file names

#

vencord user

pine ridge
#

you don’t have to solve every quadratic equation with the discriminant formula, for some equations there are easier ways

uneven vale
#

like i might forget that its positive and negative at the end

pine ridge
#

For example, take a look at this

uneven vale
#

it looks really easy

pine ridge
#

Which one?

uneven vale
#

but idk what it even wants me to do

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

the one you were solving?

uneven vale
#

y = 15/x

pine ridge
#

Ok and then?

uneven vale
#

thats kinda clever

uneven vale
#

its not in english

#

(i dont understand it myself πŸ’€)

pine ridge
#

does I say intersect or something like that?

#

yeah translate it

uneven vale
#

wtf does that mean bleakkekw

pine ridge
#

what the heck is that πŸ’€

uneven vale
#

so like

#

x equals to y something

pine ridge
#

I think it wants you to write y based on x right?

#

that’s what generally inverse stuff mean

#

I gotta go sorry

#

I will be back in like 30-45 mins

uneven vale
uneven vale
#

alr see u tmmrw ig

pine ridge
#

try to isolate x

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

if you wanna watch some videos on that

#

search β€œfinding the inverse function”

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

you might see some stuff like f(x) but don’t care about them

uneven vale
#

last year

#

in grade 7

#

(i didnt understand anything)

#

but i later understood it from python

#

im a pro coder opji3rngjhetjhsetj😎

pine ridge
#

what did you find for the inverse thing

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

its in fact very simple

uneven vale
pine ridge
uneven vale
#

find the f or x idk how it works

#

well

pine ridge
#

you cant believe how useful they are until you use them

uneven vale
#

i mean i do

#

but only in programming

uneven vale
#

alright

#

i have one problem

pine ridge
uneven vale
#

with functions

pine ridge
#

yes?

uneven vale
#

look at this

pine ridge
#

uhm

uneven vale
#

i dont get it

pine ridge
#

ok

#

f as you probably have guessed

#

means function

uneven vale
#

i used to understand functions kinda in math when i actually had to do it a bit bc i had to study it after my exams last year

#

but i forgot

#

πŸ’€

pine ridge
#

lol no worries

uneven vale
#

like i mean in math

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

f(x)=3x-4 means that you give a value for x as an input and function makes some changes to it (which here it is 3x-4) and then the function gives you the output or f(x), for example when you put x as 2, the function would say:

#

ok!

#

take 2 and multiply it by 3 and then subtract it by 4

#

you got 2!, thats the output so show:

#

f(2) = 2

#

you gave 2 to the function "f" and you got f(2) as your answer(which is 2)

uneven vale
pine ridge
#

exactly!

pine ridge
#

for example look at this

#

f(x) = 2x + 1

#

what is the value of f(3)?

uneven vale
#

ohh

#

nvm

#

i get it

pine ridge
uneven vale
pine ridge
#

exactly!

uneven vale
#

i get it now

pine ridge
#

ok good

pine ridge
pine ridge
#

ok so if a=3, then f(3) = 3 right?

uneven vale
#

i guess the function is 3 * 1

pine ridge
#

f(x) = 2x+1
f(3) = 2*3 + 1 = 7

#

f(3) = 7

#

which proves that a=3 is not the answer!

#

try once more

uneven vale
#

where did u get the 2x + 1 from

#

i thought we tsrated new

pine ridge
uneven vale
uneven vale
#

im so confused

pine ridge
#

do you have to lean it?

uneven vale
#

yes i guess

#

never really did them before

#

ok

#

lets start fresh

pine ridge
#

we gotta learn them tomorrow

#

right now we dont have that much time to study it

#

or do we?
