Yeah the comment with the link gets auto-deleted. The critical curve where x^y=y^x is solved by using the Lambert W function. x = -yW(-log(y)/y)/log(y) which gives a curve that looks like it asymptotically approaches (1,∞) and (∞,1) while going through the point (e,e).

Your solution is more elegant than mine, but here is the way I solved it :- a^5 + a^4 + 1 has no rational roots, so rather than looking for linear factors try a factorisation of the form (a^3 + ba^2 + ca + 1)(a^2 - ca +1) . Then the coeff. of a is c - c = 0 ; the coeff. of a^2 is b - c^2 + 1 = 0 ; the coeff, of a^3 is 1 - bc + c = 0 ; and the coeff, of a^4 is -c + b = 1 . Solving for b and c gives b = 0 and c = -1 . Hence the required factorisation is (a^3 - a + 1)(a^2 + a +1) .

@@juaneliasmillasvera well I’m not sure if there is complete generalization for whether a^b or b^a is greater, intuition should tell you that the larger the base number, the more exponent size dictates the overall value of the number. Think 2^3 and 3^2 versus 49^50 and 50^49. Intuition tells me that 49^50 is the larger of the two, but 3^2 is the larger of its pair. The question is where this relationship flips, I’m sure someone has already calculated that limit, and it could be a cool exercise to try out for yourself.

Simple to solve really. 3^x = x^3 when x = 3. 3^4 = 81, and 4^3 = 64 therefore 3^4 > 4^3. Therefore 3^pi > pi^3. The only hand wavy thing was 3^x = x^3 when x = 3. You should technically prove this is the only real solution. But since cube root's alternative solutions and logarithms alternative solutions only matter in the complex I do believe it is easy to see there is only one.

yawn 3^pi is large as it is closer to e. this is already forever answered. in any a^b versus b^a if a,b > e and given a<b then a^b is greater. the same is true if a,b <e then if a<b then b^a is greater. if the are on opposite sides of e then it is hard to say and other methods would be required. I conjecture though that if on opposite sides since e is at the critical point whichever the delta is smallest to e for a,b then the one with the smallest delta wins.

Disagree. I would say most viewers of this channel know how to derive a fraction. Would be tiring to go over each step everytime, already knowing the result of the step. Basically, we skip steps all the time (for instance, we do not need the step by step derivation of lnx to get to 1/x). The question is: which steps do we skip? Personally I would not draw that line at the derivation of a fraction. Most of us have done it so many times, we do not need to see (f'g - fg')/g^2. Nor do we need (1/x × x - lnx × 1)/x^2 as a step, since we already calculated that in our heads before it is written down. There is no clear line, but writing out each step would get old really fast. We are solving an Olympiad question, not filling in a math exam.

Or just use induction combined with intuition. Substitute PI with 2. You then have 3 to the power of 2 (which is 9) on the left side. And you have 2 to the power of 3 (which is 8) on the right side. So is 9 bigger than 8? YES! And this is true for all numbers N. If you have PI instead of 2 you know the left hand side will always "win".

I considered this approach, but wasn't able to completely prove it. Suppose we start the sequence with 1^2 and 2^1, the left side is less than. Going to 2^3 and 3^2, the result is greater than as you showed. Working the next few (3^4 4^3. etc) they lead to the left side greater than. Intuitively, if this continues to infinity, the two sides seem to approach equality asymptotically. But how does one prove it? If you're at point N and the left side is greater, how to prove that point N+1 also has left side greater? I couldn't figure a method to prove it that doesn't involve calculus (and likely log as well).

Indeed, for k=2, 2² = 4 < 6 = 3! = (2+1)! ✓ If it is valid for k≥2, then 2<k+2, so we have 2^k < (k+1)! => 2×2^k < (k+2)×(k+1)! => 2^{k+1} < (k+2)! Done. We proved 2^k < (k+1)! for k≥2, which implies 1/(k+1)! < 1/2^k (*1*) for k≥2. Now we prove sum 1/k! < 3 (*2*) for any k. Indeed, 1/0! = 1 1/1! = 1 1/2! = 1/2 1/3! = 1/6 < 1/2², by (*1*) 1/4! = 1/24 < 1/2³, by (*1*) ... Adding everything, sum 1/k! < 1+1+1/2+1/2²+... < 1+2 = 3 So we proved (*2*). Now we prove (1+1/N)^N ≤ sum_k 1/k! (*3*) for any N, with k = 0,...,N. Indeed, expanding (1+1/N)^N using the binomial formula (1+1/N)^N = sum_k C(N,k)(1/N)^k with k=0,...,N and C(N,k) = N!/(k!(N-k)!) So, fixing k, 1≤k≤N, we have the term C(N,k)(1/N)^k = (N!/(k!(N-k)!))(1/N)^k = (N(N-1)...(N-k+1)/k!)(1/N)^k = (N/N)((N-1)/N)...((N-k+1)/N)(1/k!) = 1(1-1/N)...(1-(k-1)/N)(1/k!) ≤ 1/k! because for each factor 1-j/N, j=0,...,k-1, 1-j/N ≤ 1 So we proved (*3*). This means we have, for any N, (1+1/N)^N ≤ sum_k 1/k! , by (*3*) < 3 , by (*2*) proving (1+1/N)^N < 3 for any N, which implies (N+1)^N < 3N^N (!!) Finally ... for N≥3, we obtain the inequality, (N+1)^N < 3N^N , by (!!) ≤ N×N^N , by 3≤N = N^{N+1} Done. That's a way.

By squaring and exponentiating results you are expanding your domain to solve a domain questionable change during the solution of the problem. In square root exoressions considered a positive solution by squaring a result introduces the negative root as an extraneous solution "liberal mathematicians" say is invalid. In Physics and Electrical Engineering mathematics "extraneous solutions" mathematics is an applied concept because of direction of vectors notations for vector math. Because a "-" result can happen with each "+" result in vector math where a square root was initially considered a positive, Physics of the sciences in mathematics define rules such as "vector right hand rule" to define the vector's direction even though the sauare root took a square root of a positive magnitude direction. Further academics of teachers explaining vector "right hand rule" for the vector "cross product" further answers this thought process more in the "mathenatical sciences!" ✓(lnx) = (1/2)(lnx) is (lnx) = 1/4((lnx)^2) by squaring the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation "mathematical sciences" routinely perform to contain an extraneous solution or root for further analysis. If lnx doesnt equal 0 such as in the ln(1) case then 1/4ln(x) = 1 or ln(x) = 4 or x = e^4 other solution. x = 1 or x = e^4 both solve the initial given equation. In sauaring and exponentiating we know x = 1 or x = e^4 and since 1 is not equal to e^4 we know x is one of those solutions or the other. Because both solutions silve the given equarion there were no extraneous solutions that didn't solve the given equation. The graph of the two curves would have intersected twice in all domain of x (the domain expanded by the exponentiated process).

And do you have any statistical sources for your "95%" claim? It might make some people feel better thinking they are part of the 5% after they got the correct solution, but not me. I solved it by myself as well before watching your solution, but that doesn't make me proud in this way, but I rather think this problem definitely ain't that hard as you claim. So I don't only think that these "95%" statistics don't exist, but even if they did, they would be wrong. Not meant to offend you, but I hope you get my point. Have a nice day. ✌️
