SuicideFuel Math thread problem (official)

Find S(n), given that S(1) = 0. S(2) = 1.2, S(3) = 1.2 + 1.3 + 2.3. S(4) = 1.2 + 1.3 + 1.4 + 2.3 + 2.4 + 3.4
(1 + 2 + ... + n)^2 = 1^2 + 2^2 + ... + n^2 + 2S(n). Since 1 + 2 + ... + n = n(n+1)/2 and 1^2 + 2^2 + ... + n^2 = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6, one can easily solve for S(n) and find that S(n) = (n-1)n(n+1)(3n+2)/24.
S(n) = Σ (i = 1 to n-1) ( Σ (j= i+1 to n) i*j)
You have merely rewritten his function in terms of summation notation, which hardly counts as solving the problem.

Correct :feelsokman:
 
f(x) = 2x^2 what is f’(x)
 
Bruh I thought it was a decimal sign. You should've used the * sign for multplication.
@trying to ascend I concur. While using a "." for multiplication is fine when it comes to variables, using it this way between numbers is very confusing because virtually everyone will interpret it as a radix point. Moreover, I believe using a "." for multiplication is Indian notation, but Wikipedia suggests India uses the "." as the decimal separator as well, so I can't imagine using "." to indicate multiplication between numbers is common practice.
 
if the amount of sentences is x, and each param list is marked as a1...an with y elements per list.
how many senstence options are there?
Java:
    public PerChanceTest() {
        super();
        sentences.add("here is a  salad vegi1 #, vegi2 # and herb #.");
        sentences.add("how about this salad vegi1 #, vegi2 # and herb #. it goes well with tuna fish");
        UniqueItemSizeLimitedPriorityQueue temp = new UniqueItemSizeLimitedPriorityQueue();
        temp.setLimit(3);
        wordToList.put("vegi1", temp);
        temp = new UniqueItemSizeLimitedPriorityQueue();
        temp.setLimit(3);
        wordToList.put("vegi2", temp);
        temp = new UniqueItemSizeLimitedPriorityQueue();
        temp.setLimit(3);
        wordToList.put("herb", temp);
    }

output example:
output:
here is a salad cucmber, purple onion and cpriander.
here is a salad tomato, purple onion and irit.
here is a salad lettuce, pickle and cpriander.
how about this salad tomato, purple onion and cpriander. it goes well with tuna fish
how about this salad lettuce, pickle and irit. it goes well with tuna fish
how about this salad lettuce, pickle and parcely. it goes well with tuna fish

If I understand you correctly, you have x different sentences, each with n variable slots and each slot permitting y options, correct? In that case, the total number of possible sentences is x*(y^n).

Yes, it indeed looked confusing, though I was just copying the original problem
 
(1 + 2 + ... + n)^2 = 1^2 + 2^2 + ... + n^2 + 2S(n). Since 1 + 2 + ... + n = n(n+1)/2 and 1^2 + 2^2 + ... + n^2 = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6, one can easily solve for S(n) and find that S(n) = (n-1)n(n+1)(3n+2)/24.

Generally not (although there technically are exceptions). Here's a rather extreme example: would you say that sum from j=2 to 4 of j is a valid solution to "find the value of 2 + 3 + 4"?

No but the upper limit for your example is bounded.

Does any of the limits being a variable change anything significant? In that case you could argue that summation notation is more formal as opposed to the ellipses, but that's about it, no? At the end of the day you have merely recast the given expression in a more formal form without really doing any kind of simplification.

that looks like a lot when it's put into a formula, maybe it could be used to write visual novel type of games, scripts

I take it you want the number of essentially distinct ones? Mirror images counting as the same figure etc.
 
There are 10 closed figures in this image

Let P(x) be a polynomial with positive real coefficients. Prove that
Sqrt(P(a)P(b) )≥ Sqrt(P( ab)),for all positive real numbers a and b.

I'm not convinced this is true. Take P(x) = ¼ + x. In that case your desideratum amounts to ¼ + ab ≤ (¼ + a)(¼ + b) for positive a & b, but this is evidently false for a = b = ¼.

Sorry my mistake it was Sqrt(p(a)p(b))=p(Sqrt(ab))

The equality sign should have been a nonstrict inequality. Anyhoo, this reminds me of midpoint (or Jensen) convexity, albeit with the geometric mean instead of the arithmetic one.

Let g = sqrt(ab). We want to prove that p(g)p(g) ≤ p(a)p(b). Let p(x) = c_0 + c_1*x + ... + c_n*x^n. Upon expanding the product p(a)p(b) we get a sum of terms of the form c_i*c_k*a^i*b^k. If we can therefore manage to show that c_i^2*g^(2i) ≤ c_i^2*a^i*b^i & c_i*c_k*2g^(i+k) ≤ c_i*c_k*(a^i*b^k + a^k*b^i) for every i ≠ k, we are done (since a & b & the c_i are all strictly positive). The former inequality is obviously an equality and therefore true. Since the c_i are all strictly positive, the latter inequality is tantamount to showing that 2g^(i+k) ≤ a^i*b^k + a^k*b^i.

Showing that 2g^(i+k) ≤ a^i*b^k + a^k*b^i is easy with Lagrange multipliers. For concreteness, I'll illustrate the case where i = 5 & k = 2. In that case, we want to show that 2g^7 ≤ a^5*b^2 + a^2*b^5 = a^2*b^2*(a^3 + b^3) = g^4*(a^3 + b^3) -- i.e., 2g^3 ≤ a^3 + b^3. Now we use Lagrange multipliers. We want to minimize the bivariate function x^3 + y^3 constrained to the hyperbola xy = g^2. Lagrange multipliers readily yields that 3x^2/y = 3y^2/x -- i.e., x^3 = y^3, so x = y = g (assuming x & y to be positive). I'll leave verifying that x = y = g produces a minimum as opposed to, say, a maximum or saddle point to the reader.

Find the integral of (xsin(x))/(1 + cos²(x)) from 0 to pi/2
Substituting t = tan(x/2) yields 4 times the integral from 0 to 1 of t*arctan(t)/(1+t^4). The only thing I can think of here is to use the Maclaurin expansion of arctan(t), but that results in ½ times the sum of (-1)^n/(2n+1)*(digamma(n/4+7/8) - digamma(n/4+3/8)) which I don't know how to simplify. Where did I go wrong?
 
I will try to see, but you were supposed to use the king's property (Integral from a to b of f(x) = f(a + b - x)) and end up with a integral that doesn't have the x.
I thought about doing that, but I quickly abandoned the idea because the math didn't seem to work out nicely in my head.
 
Numerically the result of the integral should be about 0.8453, whereas pi^2/16 is approximately 0.6.

You are correct, I wrote the wrong integral.

It should be xsin(2x)/(1 + cos²(2x)).

The king's property can't be applied to the integral I wrote previously
