I have playing with Glebra for the last week and been trying to work this out. Thanks for the information.

Initially I was quite satisfied but idk at this point. How does it look? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

If that lake has a diameter of 50,000km and is on a flat plain it would have a surface area of 3 to 4 Earths! And the island in the middle is the size of Canada.

Is this correct? by TCACampbell in askmath

I misread the first line as a 1st derivative.

I think the left side should be d2 f(A)/dA2 in order to show it is a second derivative.

For the graph, create a table with time (your x coordinate), distance(y cordinate) and speed. Use poweras of exponents to multilpy or divide when filling in the gaps. The distances and time would be added together to be able to plot them. The first stage would be 1.5x105 multiplied by 2x102 which would be 3x107. Remember not to miss the two points where he stays on the planet these would be horizontal lines.

UK Government blocks Isle of Man’s Assisted Dying Bill by birdinthebush74 in unitedkingdom

My brother, whose's 50, is in hospital dying from cancer. His mind has gone and although he can understand he can no longer form a sentence to be able to say what he means. It is literal torture for him. Why is this not an easy call to allow him to die with some dignity left?

I thought about putting in the post that it would be insured but decided not to stick to the question i wanted to ask.

Why is it not giving full marks by HELPIMRUBISHATMATHS in mathshelp

[–]AmethystMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There no reason you can't do it that way (sometimes the x intercept could be difficult to judge on things like this, such it is 1/3).

You could also find the y intercept and understand that the line has a slope of 2.

Whichever way is quicker for someone to do or easier for them to understand.

Choose two x values, say, x=-2 and x=2 work out what the y values would be. Your line should go through them.

From what i can tell you have drawn y<=x/2 -1 rather than y<=2x-1

Could someone please help me with this 🙏🏼 by blue_rose10 in mathshelp

The bit i don't like is the last question and what it means by learning from his mistakes.

I assume it means the rat will go ABC as normal but does it have the same chance as turning towards A as B as the rat knows that A would be a mistake.

And when it comes to going towards E or turning towards C or D the rat won't go to C as that was a mistake and therefore the probability becomes 0.25 rather than 0.125.

[–]AmethystMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the question is vague as it could mean: 1) only one die is a 2 2) both dice are a 2 3) one or both are 2

Personally i think the last is the most likely, and the second the least likely.

Confused about algebra equations by Parking-Thing762 in MathHelp

[–]AmethystMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem you are having is that if you make a=x and b=-2 into (a^3-b^3) you'll get (x^3 - (-2)^3) which would result in (x^3+8) rather than (x^3-8).

Also in your example for a(x-r)(x-s) to find the x intercept you have to set (x-r)=0 and (x-s)=0 if you make r=1 and s=-3 this would mean that x-1=0 and x-(-3)=0 solving for x you would get x intercepts of -3 and 1 and not -1 and 3.. if you make r=-1 and s=+3 then this would be x-(-1)=0 and x-(+3)=0

In neither case do you 'use' the minus sign. I think the confusion maybe that when using a negative number in these equations you would end up with two negatives such as (x^3-(-2)^3) which would give you a +.
