MHB How Do I Correctly Subtract All Black Hands in Part (d)?

AI Thread Summary
In part (d), the user realizes their error in subtracting the "all black" hands without also accounting for the "all red" hands. They acknowledge that subtracting only the black hands leaves the total still including the red hands. This oversight highlights the importance of considering all relevant categories when performing such calculations. The user expresses a sense of clarity after receiving feedback on their mistake. Correctly subtracting both categories is essential for accurate results.

Someone just pointed out to me my rather obvious mistake...When I subtract the 65780 "all black" hands, the rest of the hands will also still include the 65780 "all red" hands, so I should subtract those as well.
Funny how these things seem obvious in hindsight.
 
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
