The nth taylor polynomial for the given function is

P₄(x) = ln5 + 1/5 (x-5) - 1/25*2! (x-5)² + 2/125*3! (x-5)³ - 6/625*4! (x - 5)⁴

Given:

f(x) = ln(x)

n = 4

c = 3

nth Taylor polynomial for the function, centered at c

The Taylor series for f(x) = ln x centered at 5 is:

P_{n}(x)=f(c)+\frac{f^{'} (c)}{1!}(x-c)+  \frac{f^{''} (c)}{2!}(x-c)^{2} +\frac{f^{'''} (c)}{3!}(x-c)^{3}+.....+\frac{f^{n} (c)}{n!}(x-c)^{n}

Since, c = 5 so,

P_{4}(x)=f(5)+\frac{f^{'} (5)}{1!}(x-5)+  \frac{f^{''} (5)}{2!}(x-5)^{2} +\frac{f^{'''} (5)}{3!}(x-5)^{3}+.....+\frac{f^{n} (5)}{n!}(x-5)^{n}

Now

f(5) = ln 5

f'(x) = 1/x ⇒ f'(5) = 1/5

f''(x) = -1/x² ⇒ f''(5) = -1/5² = -1/25

f'''(x) = 2/x³  ⇒ f'''(5) = 2/5³ = 2/125

f''''(x) = -6/x⁴ ⇒ f (5) = -6/5⁴ = -6/625

So Taylor polynomial for n = 4 is:

P₄(x) = ln5 + 1/5 (x-5) - 1/25*2! (x-5)² + 2/125*3! (x-5)³ - 6/625*4! (x - 5)⁴

Hence,

The nth taylor polynomial for the given function is

P₄(x) = ln5 + 1/5 (x-5) - 1/25*2! (x-5)² + 2/125*3! (x-5)³ - 6/625*4! (x - 5)⁴

Which of the following correctly expresses sin (70) + sin(30) as a product?
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

2sin50 cos20

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write sin (70) + sin(30) as a product. The formula used here is :

\sin A+\sin B=2\sin (\dfrac{A+B}{2})\cos(\dfrac{a-b}{2})

Here, A = 70 and B = 30

So,

\sin 70+\sin 30=2\sin (\dfrac{70+30}{2})\cos(\dfrac{70-30}{2})\\\\\sin 70+\sin 30=2\sin 50\cos20

So, the value of sin (70) + sin(30) is 2sin50 cos20. Hence, the correct option is  (c).

katrin [286]

6x2 + x - 7

= (6x + 7)(x - 1)

So, the answer is (6x + 7), or C.

The volume of this cone is 3,183.96 cubic meters. What is the height of this cone?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

height = 18m

Step-by-step explanation:

cone volume = 3183.96 m³

1/3 πr²h = 3183.96

1/3×3.14×13×13×h = 3183.96

h = 3183.96×3/13×13×3.14

h = 9551.88/530.66

h = 18

Use identities to find the values of the sine and cosine functions for the following angle measure.
puteri [66]

Using the cosine double angle formula,

\cos 2\theta=2\cos^2 \theta-1=\frac{12}{13}\\\\2\cos^{2} \theta=\frac{25}{13}\\\\\cos^{2} \theta=\frac{25}{26}\\\\\boxed{\cos \theta=\frac{5}{\sqrt{26}}}

(Note I took the positive case since \theta terminates in the first quadrant)

Using the Pythagorean identity,

\sin^2 \theta+\cos^2 \theta=1\\\\\sin^2 \theta+\frac{25}{26}=1\\\\sin^2 \theta=\frac{1}{26}\\\\\boxed{\sin \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{26}}}

(Note I took the positive case since \theta terminates in the first quadrant)
