rice of the hat. Is he correct? Write an expression to justify you answer.

That is incorrect. The sale is for 15% off, which means he will pay 85% of the regular price.

This is because 100 - 15 = 85

PLEASE HELP WITH 37 IM MARKING BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

-5.9x - 3.7y = -2.1

5.9x + 3.7y = 2.1

If we add these two equations together, -5.9x cancels out 5.9x, -3.7y cancels out 3.7y, and -2.1 cancels out 2.1.

This leaves us with:

0 = 0

Since this is true, that means there are infinite solutions.

Enter the coefficients of the fifth Taylor polynomial T5(x) for the function f(x) = x5−3x4+2x2+5x−2 based at b=1. T5(x)= + (x−1)

DENIUS [597]

Compute the necessary values/derivatives of $f(x)$ at $x=1$ :

$f(1)=3$

$f'(1)=2$

$f''(1)=-12$

$f'''(1)=-12$

$f^{(4)}(1)=48$

$f^{(5)}(1)=120$

Taylor's theorem then says we can "approximate" (in quotes because the Taylor polynomial for a polynomial is another, exact polynomial) $f(x)$ at $x=1$ by

$T_5(x)=\dfrac3{0!}+\dfrac2{1!}(x-1)-\dfrac{12}{2!}(x-1)^2-\dfrac{12}{3!}(x-1)^3+\dfrac{48}{4!}(x-1)^4+\dfrac{120}{5!}(x-1)^5$

$T_5(x)=3+2(x-1)-6(x-1)^2-2(x-1)^3+2(x-1)^4+(x-1)^5$

###

Another way of doing this would be to solve for the coefficients $a,b,c,d,e,g$ in

$f(x)=a+b(x-1)+c(x-1)^2+d(x-1)^3+e(x-1)^4+g(x-1)^5$

by expanding the right hand side and matching up terms with the same power of $x$ .
