Trouble with evaluation and Dynamic
Programming with Dynamic
How is The Wall bypassed? I think I have found the final answer $\left(4 \left[\frac{2t \cosh(4t) - \sinh(4t)}{t^2}\right]\right)$ but need to verify it. I'm applying for B1/B2 visa. In DS-160, it asks for      Monthly Salary in Local Currency (if employed)   However it doesn't mention anywhere if this should be gross (before tax deductions) or net (after tax deductions, whatever is credited into my account every month).  What should I fill here? How do you factorise $x^3z - x^3y - y^3z + yz^3 + xy^3 - xz^3$? I'm trying to factorise $$ x^3z - x^3y - y^3z + yz^3 + xy^3 - xz^3 $$ into four linear factors.  By plugging it into WolframAlpha I've learned that it's $$-(x-y)(x-z)(y-z)(x+y+z)$$  My question is: what are the steps involved in factorising the expression? Is there a method I don't know about that I'd have access to with my limited maths?  Really appreciate any help! Sum of closed spaces is not closed Divisibility is transitive: $\ a\mid b\mid c\,\Rightarrow\ a\mid c$ As the title says, if a number is divisible by a number, is it always divisible by that number's factors?  An example being that $100$ is divisible by $20$, it is also divisible by $10, 5, 4, 2$ as well?  Does this always apply? The spectral radius of normal operator How map multiple inputText to an array property? So earlier today I came across , and I am having some trouble understanding the solution. The question is as follows:     You throw a fair six-sided die until you get 6. What is the expected   number of throws (including the throw giving 6) conditioned on the event   that all throws gave even numbers?   Quoted from Jimmy Jin in "Elchanan Mossel’s dice problem"  In the paper it goes on to state why a common wrong answer is $3$. Then afterwards explains that this problem has the same answer to,   "What is the expected number of times you can roll only $2$’s or $4$’s until you roll any other number?"  I don't understand why this is the case. If the original problem is asking for specifically a $6$, shouldn't that limit many of the possible sequences?  I also attempted to solve the problem using another method, but got an answer different from both $3$ and the correct answer of $1.5$.  I saw that possible sequences could have been something like:  $$\{6\}$$ $$\{2,6\}, \{4,6\}$$ $$\{2,2,6\}, \{2,4,6\}, \{4,2,6\}, \{4,4,6\}$$ $$\vdots$$  To which I set up the following summation and solved using :  $$\text{Expected Value} =\sum_{n=1}^\infty n\left( {\frac{1}{6}} \right)^n 2^{n-1} = 0.375$$ Obviously this is different and probably incorrect, but I can't figure out where the error in the thought process is.  Any help on understanding this would be greatly appreciated.  A blog post discussing the problem can be found Calling Table with custom iterator Algorithm to see if two voxels are interconnected What is the difference between Θ(n) and O(n)? Sometimes I see Θ(n) with the strange Θ symbol with something in the middle of it, and sometimes just O(n). Is it just laziness of typing because nobody knows how to type this symbol, or does it mean something different? Does removing the comma before 'which' etc in a non-restrictive clause change the meaning of the sentence? Why did my TeX-related GUI program stop working in Mac OS X Yosemite? I read the answers in this question, but they still leave my question open:   I didn't find a way in the Google Webmaster Tools to invoke a re-download of my robots.txt.  Through some error, my robots.txt was replaced with:  User-agent: * Disallow: /   And now all my content was removed from Google search results.  Obviously, I'm interested in correcting this as soon as possible. I already replaced the robots.txt, but I can't find a way to make Google update the cached version. How to fix "Notification access is not available" on Android Go? How to differ sessions in browser-tabs? I have spent a whole day trying to solve the following problem. Please help if you know how to do this.  I am using natbib (\usepackage[sort&amp;compress,square,comma]{natbib}), and my current citation style looks like [1-4], [5, 8-9].  What is the easiest way to change the citation style to [1]-[4] and [5],[8]-[9]? How can I prove that all rational numbers are either terminating decimal or repeating decimal numerals? I am trying to figure out how to prove that all rational numbers are either terminating decimal or repeating decimal numerals, but I am having a great difficulty in doing so. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Is there any difference between being ill and sick?
