I'll be posting the questions from AMS 2025 Daily Epsilon of Math Calendar daily from now on. I should have started earlier (doing it on Blue sky for some time). Hope it will be of interest

Here's the question for April 15th. For those unfamiliar with the calendar, the answer is always the day of the month. Looking for imaginative solutions is the aim.

"In Mathematics censorship and criticism cannot be allowed to everyone as in other sciences [...] ; the speeches of the rhetoricians and the defenses of the lawyers are worthless." – François Viète (1540-1603)

Bonjour Mastodon ! Une courte #introduction après avoir passé un bon moment en observateur .

Je viens des #Maths appliquées, et continue à m’intéresser aux sujets liés à la tech, quand elle me semble politiquement émancipatrice : #LowTech, #DIY, #LogicielLibre, #DonnéesOuvertes, etc.

Au quotidien, beaucoup de temps passé à farfouiller de la #Musique, un peu de #Cyclisme et de la #Cuisine

Mes pronoms : il/lui

Hello Mastodon!

A brief #Introduction post after some time as a fediverse observer .

I come from applied #Maths, and am still quite interested in related tech topics when they lead to more freedom and emancipation: #LowTech, #DIY, #FreeSoftware, #OpenSourceSoftware, #OpenData, etc.

In everyday life, a lot of my time is spent digging (and sometimes playing) some #Music, a bit of #Cycling, and #Cooking

My pronouns: he/him

My son pulled out a textbook at his tutoring centre and asked me to do this question.

Moving past the odd statement that the object is at rest when the forces aren't balanced, when I resolve the weight of the I get a net force along the slope of 2N, assuming a friction coefficient of 0.

The friction coefficient would need to be greater than 1 for the object to be at rest with the initial applied forces.

Textbook says the answer is 0. Am I missing something? #maths #mechanics

I've seen this video a couple of times, but I never saw any explanation.... so I decided to work it out for myself how they did that! Feel free to watch it and see if you can work it out yourself, but if you can't (or don't want to), then here's how this works (scroll down for reveal)...

First some pronumerals, then the steps - a=97, b=94, c=3, d=6
- c=100-a
- d=100-b
- the first 2 digits is a-d
- the last 2 digits is cxd

This was an issue that would particularly affect #MoodleBox a custom distribution of #Moodle that is aimed at sites without an internet connection..
It was reported 4 days ago, it is now fixed.

"For a long time, the objects that mathematicians dealt with were for the most part poorly defined; people thought they knew them because they represented them with their senses or their imagination; however, they had only a rough image of them and not a precise idea upon which reasoning could take hold." – Henri Poincaré (1854-1912)

"Longtemps les objets dont s’occupent les mathématiciens étaient pour la plupart mal définis ; on croyait les connaître parce qu’on se les représentait avec les sens ou l’imagination ; mais on n’en avait qu’une image grossière et non une idée précise sur laquelle le raisonnement pût avoir prise." – Henri Poincaré (1854-1912)
