E^x = 1 + x + x² / 2 + x³/ 3! + x^4 / 4! + .....
       = (1 + x + x²/2 ) + x³   [ 1/6 + x /4! + x² / 5! + ....  ]
 Error =  e^x - (1+ x + x² )   =  x³ [  1/6 + x /4! + x² / 5! + ....  ]
          x / 4!  < x / 6            x² / 5!   <  x² / 6  and so on
         So if we replace all factorials by 1/6 ..
     error  <  x² [ 1/6 + x/6 + x²/6 + ... ]
             <  x² / 6    [ 1 + x + x² ..... ]
             < x² / 6    * 1 / (1 -x)    = x² / 6 (1-x)        if   x < 1
 maximum error  =  x² /6(1-x)  occurs at 0.4 or -0.4 in the given interval.
             =  0.0444444

The following data show the prices of different types of outfits at a store: $2, $2, $28, $26, $25, $27, $25, $27, $26, $28, $30
arlik [135]

2, 2, 25, 25, 26, 26, 27, 28, 28, 30

Minimum: 2

Maximum: 30

Median: 26

Lower quartile: 25

Upper quartile: 28

The box plot will have its left tail longer than the right tail because a few exceptionally low prices make the distribution skewed to the left.

9. Determine whether (-3,2) is a solution of<br> Y = 2x +8<br> Y= -X+1
miss Akunina [59]
2 = 2(-3) + 8
2 = -6 + 8
2 = 2

true.

2 = 3 + 1
2 = 4

false.

this is not a solution because both equations have to be true.
