X+1 ^ 16 what is the coefficient of x^5

1 answer:

8 0

Binomial theorem:

$(x+1)^{16}=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{16}\dbinom{16}kx^{16-k}1^k=\sum_{k=0}^{16}\dbinom{16}kx^{16-k}$

The $x^5$ term corresponds with the term in the sum for which $16-k=5\implies k=11$ . For this $k$ , we get

$\dbinom{16}{11}x^{16-11}=\dbinom{16}{11}x^5$

So the coefficient you want to find is

$\dbinom{16}{11}=\dfrac{16!}{11!(16-11)!}=4368$

What would be the function for this?

Answer:

f(x) = 2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence

y = a1 + (x - 1)d where a1 = first term and d = common difference so it is

y = 6 + (x - 1)*2

y = 2x + 4 answer

Is 0.35217534 a terminating decimal

olga_2 [115]

No, because since this decimal doesn't stop, it doesn't count as terminating

HAVING BAD DAY HELP

ElenaW [278]

12s, you don’t have a value for s, so the problem can’t be fully solved but if you did you would multiply 12 by her speed

Hope this helps

A baseball diamond is a square with side 90 ft. A batter hits the ball and runs toward first base with a speed of 31 ft/s. (a) A

julsineya [31]

Answer:

a) -13.9 ft/s

b) 13.9 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The rate of his distance from the second base when he is halfway to first base can be found by differentiating the following Pythagorean theorem equation respect t:

$D^{2} = (90 - x)^{2} + 90^{2}$ (1)

$\frac{d(D^{2})}{dt} = \frac{d(90 - x)^{2} + 90^{2})}{dt}$

$2D\frac{d(D)}{dt} = \frac{d((90 - x)^{2})}{dt}$

$D\frac{d(D)}{dt} = -(90 - x) \frac{dx}{dt}$ (2)

Since:

$D = \sqrt{(90 -x)^{2} + 90^{2}}$

When x = 45 (the batter is halfway to first base), D is:

$D = \sqrt{(90 - 45)^{2} + 90^{2}} = 100. 62$

Now, by introducing D = 100.62, x = 45 and dx/dt = 31 into equation (2) we have:

$100.62 \frac{d(D)}{dt} = -(90 - 45)*31$

$\frac{d(D)}{dt} = -\frac{(90 - 45)*31}{100.62} = -13.9 ft/s$

Hence, the rate of his distance from second base decreasing when he is halfway to first base is -13.9 ft/s.

b) The rate of his distance from third base increasing at the same moment is given by differentiating the folowing Pythagorean theorem equation respect t:

$D^{2} = 90^{2} + x^{2}$
