Lim ln(tan x) as tends to pi/2 from the left

ioda

Let $x=\arctan y$ . Then $\tan x=y$ , and so as $x\to\dfrac\pi2^-$ , you have $y\to+\infty$ . The limit is then equivalent to

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\frac\pi2^-}\ln(\tan x)=\lim_{y\to\infty}\ln y=\infty$

Let a= x2 +4 rewrite the following equation in terms of a and set it equal to zero. (X2 + 4)2 + 32 = 12x2 + 48 in the resulting

Alex73 [517]

$Answer: \\ {( {x}^{2} + 4) }^{2} + 32 = 12 {x}^{2} + 48 \\ \Leftrightarrow {a}^{2} + 32 = 12( {x}^{2} + 4) \\ \Leftrightarrow {a}^{2} + 32 = 12a \\ \Leftrightarrow {a}^{2} - 12a + 32 = 0 \\ \Rightarrow Coefficients:1, \: -12. \: Constant:a$

Answer:

Answer is: $148,809.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan has purchased a whole life policy with a death benefit of $200,000.

Assuming that she dies in 10 years.

Rate = 3% or 0.03

Future value after 10 years = $(1+r)^{n}$ = $(1.03)^{10}$ = 1.344

Purchasing power of proceeds = $\frac{200000}{1.344}$ = $148,809.52
