MHB How Can I Simplify This Complex Mathematical Expression?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around simplifying a complex mathematical expression involving variables z and w, specifically with w set to 2. A participant requests help in simplifying the expression and calculating its value. Another user clarifies the expression and successfully simplifies it to show that the final result is w³, which equals 8 when w is 2. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding multiple methods for solving mathematical problems. The exchange concludes with a light-hearted comment about the user's ability to solve the problem despite initial confusion.

Hello,
I am having difficulty solving my math problems.

Simplify the Expression and show how.. And kalkulate

z²+w(2wz)²-(w+4z²-1)w³-(z+w²)(x-w²)

And w=2

I know we have many ways doing it, an the more ways i can study, the bether i can understand this..

Do you maybe mean:

$z^2+w(2wz)^2-(w+4z^2-1)w^3-(z+w^2)($z$-w^2)$

($z$ instead of $x$) ?? (Wondering)

If so, it is as followed:

$$z^2+w(2wz)^2-(w+4z^2-1)w^3-(z+w^2)(z-w^2) \\ =z^2+w 4 w^2 z^2-ww^3-4z^2w^3+w^3-(z^2-zw^2+zw^2-w^4) \\ =z^2+4 w^3 z^2-w^4-4z^2w^3+w^3-(z^2-w^4) \\ =z^2-w^4+w^3-z^2+w^4=w^3$$

For $w=2$ we have

$$2^3=8$$
 
You are so good.. You solved it even if i can't read and Write the right Expression... :)

I suspect that MHB is conducting secret genetic experimentation on some members to promote psychic abilities.

Thread 'Video on imaginary numbers and some queries'
Hi, I was watching the following video. I found some points confusing. Could you please help me to understand the gaps? Thanks, in advance! Question 1: Around 4:22, the video says the following. So for those mathematicians, negative numbers didn't exist. You could subtract, that is find the difference between two positive quantities, but you couldn't have a negative answer or negative coefficients. Mathematicians were so averse to negative numbers that there was no single quadratic...
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...
Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'
Here I made a terrible mistake of assuming this to be an equilateral triangle and set 2sinx=1 => x=pi/6. Although this did derive the double angle formulas it also led into a terrible mess trying to find all the combinations of sides. I must have been tired and just assumed 6x=180 and 2sinx=1. By that time, I was so mindset that I nearly scolded a person for even saying 90-x. I wonder if this is a case of biased observation that seeks to dis credit me like Jesus of Nazareth since in reality...
