H: How to solve percentage of new
I am good with all percentage questions except finding the original price of something. If I had a coat that cost $120 after an 8% increase, how do I formulate the original price before the increase?
AI: let the original price be $x$$
so, after 8% increase, the price would be,
$$x+\df... |
H: invariant sub space
So I preparing myself to a test in linear algebra and I scanned the last years test and I reached a question which I do not understand why is it like that.
True or false:
$ \forall T\colon V \rightarrow V$
$\exists 0_{V} \neq W \neq V $
so that $T(W) \in W$
So the answer is false and as example... |
H: $\displaystyle f: \Bbb C \to \Bbb C$ is analytic function
let $\displaystyle f: \Bbb C \to \Bbb C$ be an analytic function. For $z = x + iy$, let $u, v: \Bbb R^2 \to \Bbb R$ be such that
$u(x,y) = \Re f(z)$ and $v(x,y) = \Im f(z)$. Which of the following are correct?
1.∂2u∂x2+∂2u∂y2 = 0
2.∂2v∂x2+∂2v∂y2 = 0
3.∂2u∂x∂... |
H: Triangle inequality, is this implication correct?
$a, b,$ and $c$ are not necessarily sides of a triangle, but they are positive numbers.
The question was:
Given that $a+b>c$ , does this imply that $\sqrt a +\sqrt b > \sqrt c$ , and that $a^2+b^2>c^2$ ?
The one with the square roots is easily proven by assuming it... |
H: Operations on negative integers
I was trying to teach my younger sister some math, and it drifted on to integers, and operations on negative integers. So questions like:
a) $-3+2 = ?$
b) $2- (-3)= ?$
c)$-3 -2 = ?$
had to be answered. So, I did not want to say that because minus of minus is plus, so the answer to b)... |
H: How to find the corresponding eigenfunction after determining the eigenvalues?
I was reading this page (http://www.jirka.org/diffyqs/htmlver/diffyqsse25.html) example 4.1.4, which says:
Again $A$ cannot be zero if $\lambda$ is to be an eigenvalue, and $sin(\sqrt {\lambda} \pi)$ is only zero if $\sqrt {\lambda}=k$ ... |
H: solving equations by the method of substitution
$\dfrac{a}{x}+\dfrac{b}{y}=\dfrac{a}{2}+\dfrac{b}{3},$
$x+1=y$
We have to solve for $x$ and $y$.I have tried to solve for them by finding value of $x$ or $y$ from the second equation and place them in the second.It is obvious that the answers would be $2$ and $3,$but ... |
H: Algebraic Transformation query...
I'm boning up on Algebra, and I'm looking into Algebraic Transformation.
I understand the basic concept - but I'm confused by two self assessment questions.
The two questions, from what I can see, are almost similar but have quite different ways of arriving at the end result.
Now, ... |
H: Generalizing a theorem about indentations around simple poles
Assume the function $f(z)$ has a simple pole at $z_{0}$.
There is a theorem that states that if $C_{r}$ is an arc of the circle $|z-z_{0}| = r$ of angle $\alpha$, then $$\lim_{r \to 0} \int_{C_{r}} f(z) \, dz = i \alpha \, \text{Res}[f,z_{0}].$$
But wh... |
H: Evaluate the integral: $\lim \limits_{n\to\infty}\int_0^1\frac{nx}{nx^3+1}$
Evaluate the integral:
$$\lim \limits_{n\to\infty}\int_0^1\frac{nx}{nx^3+1}dx$$
I'm pretty much stuck on how to solve this one:
$$\int_0^1\frac{nx}{nx^3+1}dx$$
or even getting the improper integral.
What can i do?
AI: If you think that your... |
H: Proof of $ \lim_{y\to\infty} (\tan\frac{x}{y})\cdot y = x$?
At lunch a coworker was talking about how to calculate, say, the 100th digit of pi using a square around the circle, then a pentagon, etc, basically you end up taking the limit of the circumference as the number of sides n goes to infinity.
So I tried work... |
H: Simple question about full time derivative
Let's have full time derivative equation
$$
\frac{F(\mathbf r (t), \mathbf p (t), t)}{dt} = \frac{\partial \mathbf r }{\partial t}\frac{\partial F}{\partial \mathbf r} + \frac{\partial \mathbf p }{\partial t}\frac{\partial F}{\partial \mathbf p } + \frac{\partial F}{\parti... |
H: Does this function have a minimum?
$$f(x, y, z) = xy - xz$$
My textbook asks to find the minimums of various different functions, and this is one of them. But I don't think this has a minimum. If $X=(x, y, z)$, then $f(tX)=t^2f(X)$, so if $f(X)$ is ever negative, the function will tend to $-\infty$ along the line g... |
H: A statement equivalent to $\exists ! x P(x)$
I'm trying to write a statement in logic symbols that says there is a unique $x$ such that $P(x)$ is true. I've heard of writing this down as $\exists !x P(x) $. But I think I'm not allowed to use the symbol $\exists !$. Now I'm trying to write an equivalent statement wi... |
H: Strange graph theory problem
Let $G$ be a graph where every vertex has degree 1 or 3. Let $X$ be the set of all vertices of degree 1. Suppose there exists a set of edges $Y$ such that by removing these edges from $G$, each component of the remaining graph is a tree which contains exactly one vertex in $X$. Determi... |

Can any one please tell the approach or solve the question
what is the remainder when $1!+2!+3!+4!+\cdots+45!$ is divided by $47$?
I can solve remainder of $45!$ divided by $47$ using Wilson's theorem but I don't know what must be the approach... |
H: Laurent-Development of zero function
The following "idendity" contradicts the uniqueness of the Laurent Development:
$$
0=\frac{1}{z-1}+\frac{1}{1-z}=\frac{1}{z}\frac{1}{1-1/z}+\frac{1}{1-z}=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{z^n}+\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}z^n=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}z^n

H: Finite ways to write $1 =\sum_{i=1}^{h}\frac{1}{n_i}$
Let $h\geqslant 1$ an integer.
Can we show (simply), without using group actions, that
there exists a finite number of decomposition of the form
$\displaystyle 1 =\sum_{i=1}^{h}\frac{1}{n_i}$, with $n_i$ positive
integers.
P.S.: With group actions, I got... |

Find the Wronskian of the functions $f(t)=6e^t\sin{t}$ and $g(t)=e^t\cos(t)$. Simplify your answer.
please list out all steps as simple as possible
thank you
AI: Recall, that given $$f(t)=6e^t\sin{t}\quad g(t)=e^t\cos(t)$$
The Wronskian of $f(t), g(t) = W(f,g)(t)$
$$W(f, g)(t) =... |

Prove by induction that
$$(a_{1}+a_{2}+\cdots+a_{n})\left(\frac{1}{a_{1}}+\frac{1}{a_{2}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{a_{n}}\right)\geq n^{2}$$
where $n$ is a positive integer and $a_1, a_2,\dots, a_n$ are real positive numbers
Hence, show that

Set B has 6 elements
Set C has 7 elements

H: Number of attempts required to increment a counter based on probability of success

H: Part of a solution to a mathematical induction problem I don't understand
There's a part in the solution that I can't understand, I think it's just something basic that I'm missing. In the solution it says:
$$T(k) \leq 2(c(k/2)^2 \log(k/2)) + k^2$$
Then it became
$$T(k) \leq ( ck^2 \log(k/2) ) / 2 + k^2$$
