Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Taylor series</u> expansions of f(x) at the point x = a

This expansion is valid only if
exists and is finite for all
, and for values of x for which the infinite series converges.






Substituting the values in the series expansion gives:

Therefore:

Answer:
-1 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the quadratic, factor and set its factors equal to 0. Factoring is the action of breaking up a polynomial into pieces which multiply to make it. The factors are found by multiplying numbers to make C and add to B of
.
Here c = -9 and b = -8. The numbers -9 and 1 multiply to -9 and add to -8. These are the factors (x-9)(x+1).
Set each equal to 0 and solve for x.
x-9 = 0
x = 9
x+1 =0
x = -1
Answer:
4.1 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that The Lisbon’s new heat pump cost $4,500. They bought it to replace their old furnace and air conditioner which cost about $2,800 a year to run. The heat pump will save them approximately 39% a year.
Yearly cost was 2800 at first and the pump will save 39% of 2800. So annual saving with new heat pump will be:

Let x be the number of years in which heat pump will pay for itself, so saving in x years will be:
Now let us equate the savings by new heat pump with cost of heat pump to find the number of years (x).


Therefore, the heat pump will pay for itself in 4.1 years.
