Answer:

BC = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the missing triangles are shown:

AB = 10

BD = 5

DE= 12

Then, AD = 10-5 = 5

As a consequence of the "Side Splitter" Theorem:

AD/DE = AB/BC

Replacing with data and solving for BC

5/12 = 10/BC

BC = 10*12/5 = 24

Answer:

Possible

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for triangle side lengths is that the two shortest sides must add up to the longest side so it is possible because

3+7 = 10

Two short sides = The longest side

Use the power series for 1 1−x to find a power series representation of f(x) = ln(1−x). What is the radius of convergence? (Note

Viktor [21]

a. Recall that

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{1-x}=-\ln|1-x|+C$

For $|x|$ , we have

$\displaystyle\frac1{1-x}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n$

By integrating both sides, we get

$\displaystyle-\ln(1-x)=C+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}$

If $x=0$ , then

$\displaystyle-\ln1=C+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{0^{n+1}}{n+1}\implies 0=C+0\implies C=0$

so that

$\displaystyle\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}$

We can shift the index to simplify the sum slightly.

$\displaystyle\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{x^n}n$

b. The power series for $x\ln(1-x)$ can be obtained simply by multiplying both sides of the series above by $x$ .

$\displaystyle x\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}n$

c. We have

$\ln2=-\dfrac\ln12=-\ln\left(1-\dfrac12\right)$

$\displaystyle\implies\ln2=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1{n2^n}$
