    I did forget to cancel out the x+y term! Oooopsies! 😮😮

      Weird that a division of a 7 degree polynomial with a 5 degree one gives a 3 degree polynomial.😊

    You forgot an (x+y) in the denominator, which simplifies with the one in the numerator

    the right answer should be. 7/5 * (x^2 + xy + y^2)

    Umm you forgot to put the x+y in the final denominator which cancel out the x+y from the numerator

    Very nice video and long calculus too. It is a surprise to have such nice simple solution without (x+y) in fact. If you name Q(x,y) the original expression, you can verify that Q(nx,ny)=n².Q(x,y). So the final expression must lead the same finding which IS n'ont the case with Factor (x+y).

    Interestingly, with the numerator using powers of 5 and the denominator 3, the solution is 5/3 * (x² + xy + y²). This is the only other occasion where it is of this form.

    I got a different answer: (7/5) (x^2 + xy + y^2). When I use a computer program and use various non-zero values for x and y, my answer checks with the original equation. Yours with the extra (x+y) does not.
    **EDIT: lots of people saw the same thing. I agree with the comments section, there's an (x+y) in the denominator, so that cancels out of the solution.

    I really like SyberMath but I think there's an issue here. I used MATLAB and get something different. The first thing that bugged me was dimensions. If x and y have units of meters, the units of the original fraction must have units of m^2. The solution at the end video would have units of m^3. I get
    (7/5)(x^2 + xy + y^2)
    The next thing to check is that if a result is true in general it's true for any specific case. So let's test, x = 1, y=1, that would make the
    original function (2^7-2)/(2^5 - 2) = 126/30 = 4.2
    SyberMath's answer
    1.4*2*3 = 8.4
    my answer
    1.4*3 = 4.2
    What do you think?

      Yep! I checked it out using MathCAD, same thing. Using (7/5) (x^2 + xy + y^2) and assigning various real values for x and y, it checks out numerically with the original equation. With the extra (x+y) in the answer, the numbers don't work out. (Note: x and y cannot be zero or you get a divide-by-zero problem.)

      The denominator factorization is missing a (x+y)

  • @WahranRai
    @WahranRai 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The result is degree 3 and denominator is degree 5 ---> degree (result * denominator) = 8 ---> error somewhere !

  • @vladislavlukmanov4998

    You forget to cancel out x+y in the numerator. I got (7/5)*(x^2+xy+y^2)

  • @tarunmnair
    @tarunmnair 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    When I did it, I got (7/5)*(x2+xy+y2)...
    I think you forgot a factor (x+y) in the denominator,which cancels the same factor in the numerator...

  •  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great. But (x+y) was forgotten in denominator. So the (x+y) factor disapper in the given solution. This made me think of Lamé.

  • @vincentman9412
    @vincentman9412 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Some careless mistakes in omitting the common factor (x+y) in denominator. By cancellation , the final result is 7/5 (x^2+xy+y^2)#

    The Lesson: the risk of leaving a part out is that you might forget to put it back in at the end. With a large piece of physical paper you can put a visible reminder somewhere, but with electronic "paper" that scrolls away, it is difficult to leave oneself such a reminder.

    We will count. that the fraction is reduced, giving, as a result, a polynomial without remainder in the form of another fraction. Then.
    [(x+y)^7 -x^7-y^7]/[(x+y)^5 -x^5 -y^5] = Ax^2 +Bxy+Cy^2, where constants A,B and C must
    be determined. This equality must hold for any x and y.
    We assume in it sequentially, for example, y=x, y=x/2 and y=2x.
    After reducing such terms, we obtain a system of linear equations with respect to A,B and C:
    A+B+C=21/5, A+B/2+C/4=49/5 , A +2B+4C=49/20,
    solving which, we get A=B=C=7/5.
    Answer: 7/5 (x^2+xy+y^2).

    For some reason i plotted the graph of y^7=(x+y)^7-x^7. I got the graph to be linear. Can you tell why?

    • @marioalejandrocaisaguanomu8005

      The equation y⁷ = (x + y)⁷ - x⁷ is equivalent to x⁷ + y⁷ = (x + y)⁷. It's not difficult to proof that (x + y)⁷ = x⁷ + y⁷ + 7xy(x + y)(x² + xy + y²)². So, x⁷ + y⁷ = (x + y)⁷ is the same that xy(x + y)(x² + xy + y²)² = 0. From this result you get three equations: (x = 0) ∨ (y = 0) ∨ (x + y = 0). This is why the graph of y⁷ = (x + y)⁷ - x⁷ only has straight lines.

    You could also represent the solution as 7/3 * (x^3 + 2*x^2*y + 2*x*y^2 + y^3)

    You have forgotten (x+y) in denominator... so answer should be 7/5(x^2 +xy +y*2) only!!

      because I forgot to write x+y in the denominator which cancels out

  • @MrLidless
    @MrLidless 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    This would have helped simplify:
    xⁿ- yⁿ = (x - y)(xⁿ⁻¹ + xⁿ⁻²y + … + xyⁿ⁻² + yⁿ⁻¹)
    If n is odd (as is the case in the numerator and denominator) and substitute y with -y:
    xⁿ + yⁿ = (x + y)(xⁿ⁻¹ - xⁿ⁻²y + … - xyⁿ⁻² + yⁿ⁻¹)
    But yes, you needed to cancel out the x+y in the video.

    How is that even possible?
