had left at the end of the trip. They ate all the rest.
Clues:

2 full boxes of potato chips and 3 bags left over
1 fewer box of nacho chips than potato chips, with no bags left over
twice as many loose bags of barbecue chips than loose bags of potato chips, with no full boxes left over
How many bags of chips did the scouts eat on their trip?

The scouts eat 51 bags of chips on their trip

<h3>How to determine the number of bags of chips?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Boxes = 9

Bag = 10 chips

2 full boxes of potato chips and 3 bags left over.

This represents:

Potato chips = 2 * 10 + 3

Potato chips = 23 i.e. 23 bags potato chips are left over

1 fewer box of nacho chips than potato chips, with no bags left over

This represents

Nacho chips = (2 - 1) * 10

Nacho chips = 10 i.e. 10 bags of nacho chips are left over

The loose bags of potato chips is 3.

So, we have:

Barbecue chips = 2 * 3 bags

Barbecue chips = 6 bags

At this point, we have:

  • Potato chips = 23 bags
  • Nacho chips = 10 bags
  • Barbecue chips = 6 bags

The total number of bags left over is

Total = 23 + 10 + 6

Total = 39

The number of bags eaten is:

Eaten = 9 * 10 - 39

Evaluate

Eaten = 51

Hence, the scouts eat 51 bags of chips on their trip

Expand the polynomial:<br> (5a+1/5 b)^2
WINSTONCH [101]
Expand the following:
(5 a + b/5)^2

(5 a + b/5) (5 a + b/5) = (5 a) (5 a) + (5 a) (b/5) + (b/5) (5 a) + (b/5) (b/5):
5×5 a a + (5 a b)/5 + (5 b a)/5 + (b b)/(5×5)

(5 a b)/5 = 5/5×a b = a b:
5×5 a a + a b + (5 b a)/5 + (b b)/(5×5)

(b×5 a)/5 = 5/5×b a = b a:
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b b)/(5×5)

Combine powers. (b b)/(5×5) = (b^(1 + 1))/(5×5):
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b^(1 + 1))/(5×5)

1 + 1 = 2:
5×5 a a + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5

5 a×5 a = 5×5 a^2:
5×5 a^2 + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5

5×5 = 25:
Answer:  25 a^2 + a b + b a + (b^2/5)/5

Find the taylor polynomial t3(x) for the function f centered at the number
Vlad [161]
e^{-3x}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-3x)^n}{n!}=1-3x+9x^2+\cdots
\sin2x=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-1)^n(2x)^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}=2x-\dfrac{4x^3}3+\cdots

e^{-3x}\sin2x=\left(1-3x+9x^2+\cdots\right)\left(2x-\dfrac{4x^3}3+\cdots\right)
\approx T_3(x)=(1-3x+9x^2)\left(2x-\dfrac{4x^3}3\right)
T_3(x)=2x-6x^2+\left(18-\dfrac43\right)x^3
T_3(x)=2x-6x^2+\dfrac{50}3x^3
