a=first term
r=common ratio
n=the term
a(5)=5*3(5-1)
a(5)=5*81
a(5)=405
The answer is B)

Limit (sin4x-4sinx)/x^3 when x close to zero

BartSMP [9]

$\Large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ \lim_{x\rightarrow0} \ {\dfrac{sin(4x)-4sin(x)}{x^3}}=-10 \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

Using Maclaurin series expansion, we can find an equivalent of sin(x) in the neighbourhood of 0.

$sin(x) \sim \left(x-\dfrac{x^3}{3!}\right)\\\\\text{So, in the neighbourhood of 0}\\\\\begin{aligned}(sin(4x)-4sin(x)) &\sim \left( 4x-\dfrac{(4x)^3}{3!}-4x+\dfrac{4x^3}{3!}\right)\\\\&\sim \left(\dfrac{x^3*4*(1-4^2)}{3*2}\right)\\\\&\sim \left(\dfrac{x^3*2*(-15)}{3}\right)\\\\&\sim \left(x^3*2*(-5)\right)\\\\&\sim \left(x^3*(-10)\right)\\\end{aligned}$

Then,

$\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow0} \ {\dfrac{sin(4x)-4sin(x)}{x^3}}\\\\= \lim_{x\rightarrow0} \ {\dfrac{-10*x^3}{x^3}}\\\\=-10$

Thank you

The graph of h (x) =|x- 10|+ 6 is shown. On which interval is this graph increasing? A. (–∞, 6) B. (–∞, 10) C. (6, ∞) D. (10, ∞)

gladu [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph increases when y hits its lowest point and then starts to go back up again. In this case, when x = 10, it starts to go back up again.

-2/3 times (-2 1/4)times 3/4 Show work pls

mihalych1998 [28]

(-2/3)*(-2 1/4)*(3/4) Convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction.
(-2/3)*(-9/4)*(3/4) Then you multiply the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators

(-2*-9*3) negative times negative is positive, so the negative sign is gone
-------------
(3*4*4*) The lines (-----) is the line of the fraction

54/48 This is the product of this multiplication, now you need to simplify
by reducing the numbers of the fraction

9/8 And that would be the answer
