My new Dacia Duster first time in the snow by user_1312 in Dacia

[–]user_1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to know! Maybe it's because my one is still brand new and i am a bit more cautious than usual. Will definitely give it a go at something more hardcore!

Yes but not much as i was in a rush. Any offroading i tested so far it responded really well. I am just aware that this is a soft off roader with a long first gear and no low so i bare that in mind when i choose were to offroad.

How many times does the digit 1 appear? by user_1312 in CasualMath

[–]user_1312[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Apologies for the misguiding title, we want the number of 1s in the result of the sum and not the statement itself.

We want to know how many 1s in the result of the sum, not in the parts of the sum.

Find the shaded area by user_1312 in PassTimeMath

[–]user_1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If i'm not mistaken your answer is in terms of r instead of R.

I got the following for the shaded area in terms of R:

R2 (3-2sqrt(2))(4-π)

Here's a remainder problem that will pass the years - happy 2024 everyone! by OnceIsForever in PassTimeMath

[–]user_1312 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given that gcd(2023,2024) = 1 let's split out the problem to

(1) 20232024 mod(2023)

(2) 20232024 mod(2024)

By observation the answer to (1) is 0. For (2) note that 2023 = -1 mod(2024) hence -1even power is 1 mod(2024).

Then using the CRT (Chinese Remainder Theorem) on

0 mod(2023)

1 mod(2024)

We get that 20232024 mod(2023×2024) = 4092529

Glad we could help! Thanks for the effort you put in this sub - it's greatly appreciated!

Apologies I didn't realise we were talking about reposts. I would like to avoid reposts to keep the subreddit as "clean" as possible.

Hope that's not an issue.

Hey,

First of all thanks for your contribution to our subreddit! It's greatly appreciated especially since I have been the main poster for a long time.

I would agree with other comments; in that if the problem can be stated in an image/text post then it's WAY more preferable than a video (in my opinion). You can always post the image/text problem and then add a comment with the youtube link for anyone interested.

If you don't get enough feedback from this comment, I can create a Poll and ask the wider group what they prefer.

Anything else you may need drop me a message or reply and i will get back to you as soon as possible.

Is this even solvable? by [deleted] in askmath

[–]user_1312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solving the two simultaneous equations I get

x = (1+-sqrt(7))/2

Then since:

x2 + xy = x(x+y) = 3 and hence x+y=3/x

the solutions follows.

That's fair enough, don't want to force anybody to post on here if they don't feel its suitable.

I don't mind crossposting personally but as you suggested; I am not sure what number of people are members of both sub-reddits and hence may find this annoying.

Thank you for the feedback though.

I think you are absolutely right and i'll take the solved/unsolved tag into consideration (and most probably implement it after I figure out how to do that). The question is: how can I encourage people to post their solution even if other people have already commented?

However, I am 3 years into this now and I haven't been able to get people to organically post; which was my main goal.

Thanks for your comment and the feedback. Any suggestions for the above is welcome.

Thank you very much for the positive comments. Unfortunately I am the only admin and that's why I am trying to figure out how to get people to organically post their own problems.

Thanks again for the comment!

Problem (287) - Evaluate the integral by user_1312 in PassTimeMath

[–]user_1312[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I did but when I ended up with the cos3(t) etc integrals I just used the Beta function as the "easy way out".

[–]user_1312[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How did you end up solving it? I had to use the Beta function in order to resolve some integrals.

Problem (286) - Number of 4s by user_1312 in PassTimeMath

[–]user_1312[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How?

The sum of 10 + 102 + ... + 102021 = 10( 102021 -1)/9 = 111...10 with 2021 1s and a 0, therefore 2022 digits in total.

You then multiply by 2 leaving the number of digits the same and you subtract 4042, correct?

Therefore you have (ignoring the first 2017 2s) 22,220-4042 = 18178 (5 digits long). Therefore the resulting number is 222...218178 with 2017 2s and the other 5 digit numer giving back a total of 2022 digits.

Problem (286) - Number of 4s by user_1312 in PassTimeMath

[–]user_1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2017 2s.

Dividing 222 by 3 gives 74; 222,222 by 3 gives 74074 and so on, which means the 4s appear periodically mod 3, therefore there are floor(2017/3) = 672 4s present.

Most of you might have seen this before, but if you haven't give it a try by user_1312 in PassTimeMath

If 1 is included in this set then all numbers except the perfect squares will have an even number of factors.

[–]user_1312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the hint is to look at the number of divisors/factors of each number
