Needing a break from studying, you take a walk to the Pogonip koi pond, whereupon
a wild-eyed stranger pops out from behind a redwood tree and directs the following polemic
in your general direction: "The lies those so-called teachers at that university promulgate, let
me tell you. I know the truth that they don't want you to know. As plain as day, " = 0
for all n ≥0. It's an easy induction proof, see?" He hands you a leaflet, where you see the
proof that they don't want you to see:
We proceed by strong induction on n.
Base case: n = 0. We have 10:
Induction step: Assume that
d1 =
=
= 0.
dx
dxk
dx
= 0 for all kn. Then, by the product rule,
nd
dx
da
1x+1 = 1/1(x²x²) = x²±²x² + x 11 x²
d
=
x.0+x¹.0 0.
dx
This completes the induction.
That derivative rule doesn't seem like the one you learned, but there's nothing obviously
wrong with the proof. Is he right, are the math professors propping up the interests of Big
Calculus? Or should he have paid better attention in CSE 16? What's going…

Define f: ZZ and 9: ZZ by f(x)=3x+1 and g(x) = x². (a) Calculate (go f)(2). (b) Find an explicit formula for the function gof. Define f: R2 R2 by f(x, y) = (3x+y, 5x+2y). Give an explicit formula for f-1. Verify that it is the inverse of f. Do not include a derivation for f¹ unless it is for the verification.arrow_forward
- Suppose that two toothpaste companies compete for customers in a fixed market in which each customer uses either Brand A or Brand B. Suppose also that a market analysis shows that the buying habits of the customers fit the following pattern in the quarters that were analyzed: each quarter (three-month period), 30% of A users will switch to B, while the rest stay with A. Moreover, 40% of B users will switch to A in a given quarter, while the remaining B users will stay with B. Finally assume that this pattern does not vary from quarter to quarter. (a) If A initially has all of the customers, what are the market shares 2 quarters later? (b) If A initially has all of the customers, what are the market shares 20 quarters later? (c) If B initially has all of the customers, what are the market shares 2 quarters later? (d) If B initially has all of the customers, what are the market shares 20 quarters later?arrow_forward1. The regular representation of a finite group G is a pair (Vreg, Dreg). Vreg is a vector space and Dreg is a homomorphism. (a) What is the dimension of Vreg? (b) Describe a basis for Vreg and give a formula for Dreg. Hence explain why the homo- morphism property is satisfied by Dreg. (c) Prove that the character ✗reg (g) defined by tr Dreg (g) is zero if g is not the identity element of the group. (d) A finite group of order 60 has five irreducible representations R1, R2, R3, R4, R5. R₁ is the trivial representation. R2, R3, R4 have dimensions (3,3,4) respectively. What is the dimension of R5? Explain how your solution is related to the decomposition of the regular representation as a direct sum of irreducible representations (You can assume without proof the properties of this decomposition which have been explained in class and in the lecture notes). (e) A group element has characters in the irreducible representations R2, R3, R4 given as R3 R2 (g) = -1 X³ (g) = −1 ; XR4 (g) = 0…arrow_forwardit's not algebra 4th gradearrow_forward
