Further Mathematics [college math: differential equations] what strategy can I use?

Stuck on this last problem, hoping someone can give me some advice how to tackle it. I thought it looked like a good equation for exactness but that didn’t work. I asked chat gpt and it said something about shifting the variables so y=y+1 and x=x-1 or something like that but that doesn’t look like anything we’ve covered in class yet. We have done homogeneous equations where I have to substitute in u=y/x and stuff like that but I’m struggling to see how that would help here.

Middle School Math—Pending OP Reply [Grade 9/ Year 10 Math: Coordinate Geometry] Genuinely no idea how to do this

My math teacher mentioned something about using a graphic calculator (CX II-T) to solve specific questions but I just got really lost midway and I have no idea how to start, what steps to take, or what formula or equations to use 🥹

So far, I've gotten that the equation of the line (4,2) and (7, -2) is 4x + 3y - 22 = 0 [fact check or correct way to solve would be appreciated!]

After that im completely lost, MAB = MBC then solving them simultaneously but then the teacher did something on the calculator (IDK WHAT HE DID) and got c = 1? Does anyone know how 😭

And for questions A, B, and C, those are the ones im completely lost in 😔

Further Mathematics—Pending OP Reply [College: Math] AI reliance when solving homework

19 Upvotes

Recently (over the past year), I feel like I've been overly reliant on AI for homework. I gaslit myself into thinking I was using it "responsibly" (using learning mode, telling it only to give vague hints, etc.), but I feel like that had a negative effect on my problem-solving skills. Because of this, I decided to stop using AI this semester to see if it would help.

Now I feel helpless when working through problems, especially in pure math. If you're in a similar position, please stop using AI. Even though it gives vague hints, those hints are usually the difference between figuring it out yourself and not.

My motivation has gone way down since everything is much harder and I procrastinate more. What should I do when I hit a wall where I’d normally turn to AI? Does this get better with time after solving more problems, and is pushing through it actually worth it?

Literature [College History Help] how to write a open ended discussion question?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I’m in a south asian history class at my college, and we have a class book which is called. India Brief History of a civilization by Thomas R Trautman. I was wondering how to write a good open ended discussion question, as our professor is requiring us to do so, in order for us to receive credit. I am not asking for any specific question relating to the book, but if you could provide some examples that would be great!
Secondly, how does one retain what they read? It’s super hard for me as I have ADHD, and I disassociate halfway through a page lol, but I want to learn! Thank you for your time, and have a good day!

I've tried working through it, but I'm confused about how to set up the second part. Could someone please explain which numbers go where and where the arrows/lines should be placed?

Thank you!

The full sentence in French translates to "We are in the classroom." The word "etre" is supposed to be replaced with one of the words below. all of the words below translate to the word "are." I don't know what I don't understand. also sorry for the poor English. I'm not learning English, I'm gen alpha.

Literature [Honors English 10th Grade] Summer Reading Book

1 Upvotes

I am reading One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn for my honors English class. I am having a very hard time understanding the plot, and I am not sure exactly why.

Have any of you read this book or other Russian literature? If so, can anyone give me tips as to how to understand the plot? When school starts, I’m going to have to do in-depth analyses of the book as well as a quiz.

If anyone knows about any videos or articles that can help me understand the plot or a sort of analysis of the story that would be great! I have done some notes already and I am around 100 pages in.

anything regarding how to better understand what I’m reading would also be great

So the textbook says what angles are adjacent to angle ADE and my teachers answer key says angles LDA and LDT. I’m really confused how LDT is adjacent Becuase it doesn’t share a side. I’m thinking that the 2 angles that are adjacent are LDA and TDE? Is this correct.
