      they get the problem a few seconds before we do

      my bad, exactly 1 second. like probably exactly one second, I went through the timer using the , and . buttons. we get the problem 60 frames after they do. since they said ten seconds at 20:39, the problem must have appeared at 20:04, but we got it 60 frames after that so a second later

    Finding the sum of the reciprocals of the factors of 48 can be found like this 48 = 2^4 * 3^1 [ ( 1 + 2 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^4 ) / 2^4 ] * [ ( 1 + 3 ) / ( 3 ) ] = [ (2^5 - 1 ) / 2^4 ] * ( 4 / 3 ) = 31 / 12

    Reading key words. All he sees is: cutting ribbon -> 15 -> one-third -> how long should = 5. The rest is just details.

    26:36 The data of the problem were wrong. The official answer is 54, so L=36 and W=18.
    Hence the area of the black region is (36-4)*(18-4)=448...not 416.

    • @chemicalbrother5743
      @chemicalbrother5743 6 лет назад +6

      No, the data were right, the area of the black region is 36*18=648, the area of both regions together is
      (36+4)*(18+4)=40*22=880, the area of the white region is 880-648=132 and 132 is exactly 416 less than 648, as described.

      they say 416 is the difference in areas

  • @1234s6
    @1234s6 5 лет назад +1

    (V_k = velocity. V_1 being the velocity of the first 6km. V_2 being the last 6km.)
    We have v_2 = v_1 + 2.
    So,
    (V_1 + V_1 + 2)/2 = 12/1.75 = 12/(7/4) = 48/7 ---> V_1 = 41/7. Which is very close to 6 but not quite.

    11:00 , The greatest possible value of (n+1)!/n^(n-1). The answer is wrong! They said 3. But the correct answer is obviously 2.

    • @kushaagra098
      @kushaagra098 3 года назад

      its asking for greatest possible value of the expression, not the value of n resulting in the greatest possible value of the expression. n = 2 gives you 3. 3 is the greatest possible value.
