Use this list of Basic Taylor Series and the identity sin2θ= 1 2 (1−cos(2θ)) to find the Taylor Series for f(x) = sin2(3x) based

notsponge [240]

Answer:

The Taylor series for $sin^2(3 x) = - \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ , the first three non-zero terms are $9x^{2} -27x^{4}+\frac{162}{5}x^{6}$ and the interval of convergence is $( -\infty, \infty )$

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the steps to find the Taylor series for the function $sin^2(3 x)$

Use the trigonometric identity:

$sin^{2}(x)=\frac{1}{2}*(1-cos(2x))\\ sin^{2}(3x)=\frac{1}{2}*(1-cos(2(3x)))\\ sin^{2}(3x)=\frac{1}{2}*(1-cos(6x))$

2. The Taylor series of $cos(x)$

$cos(y) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-1^{n}y^{2n}}{(2n)!}$

Substituting y=6x we have:

$cos(6x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-1^{n}6^{2n}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$

3. Find the Taylor series for $sin^2(3x)$

$sin^{2}(3x)=\frac{1}{2}*(1-cos(6x))$ (1)

$cos(6x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-1^{n}6^{2n}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ (2)

Substituting (2) in (1) we have:

$\frac{1}{2} (1-\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-1^{n}6^{2n}x^{2n}}{(2n)!})\\ \frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-1^{n}6^{2n}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$

Bring the factor $\frac{1}{2}$ inside the sum

$\frac{6^{2n}}{2}=9^{n}2^{2n-1} \\ (-1^{n})(9^{n})=(-9^{n} )$

$\frac{1}{2}-\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$

Extract the term for n=0 from the sum:

$\frac{1}{2}-\sum_{n=0}^{0}\frac{-9^{0}2^{2*0-1}x^{2*0}}{(2*0)!}-\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}\\ \frac{1}{2} -\frac{1}{2} -\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}\\ 0-\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}\\ sin^{2}(3x)=-\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$

To find the first three non-zero terms you need to replace n=3 into the sum

$sin^{2}(3x)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}\\ \sum_{n=1}^{3}\frac{-9^{3}2^{2*3-1}x^{2*3}}{(2*3)!} = 9x^{2} -27x^{4}+\frac{162}{5}x^{6}$

To find the interval on which the series converges you need to use the Ratio Test that says

For the power series centered at x=a

$P(x)=C_{0}+C_{1}(x-a)+C_{2}(x-a)^{2}+...+ C_{n}(x-a)^{n}+...,$

suppose that $\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{C_{n}}{C_{n+1}}| = R.$ . Then

If $R=\infty,$ the the series converges for all x
If $0$ then the series converges for all $|x-a|$
If R=0, the the series converges only for x=a

So we need to evaluate this limit:

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |\frac{\frac{-9^{n}2^{2n-1}x^{2n}}{(2n)!}}{\frac{-9^{n+1}2^{2*(n+1)-1}x^{2*(n+1)}}{(2*(2n+1))!}} |$

Simplifying we have:

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |-\frac{(n+1)(2n+1)}{18x^{2} } |$

Next we need to evaluate the limit

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |-\frac{(n+1)(2n+1)}{18x^{2} } |\\ \frac{1}{18x^{2} } \lim_{n \to \infty} |-(n+1)(2n+1)}|}$

-(n+1)(2n+1) is negative when n -> ∞. Therefore $|-(n+1)(2n+1)}|=2n^{2}+3n+1$

You can use this infinity property $\lim_{x \to \infty} (ax^{n}+...+bx+c) = \infty$ when a>0 and n is even. So

$\lim_{n \to \infty} |-\frac{(n+1)(2n+1)}{18x^{2} } | \\ \frac{1}{18x^{2}} \lim_{n \to \infty} 2n^{2}+3n+1=\infty$

Because this limit is ∞ the radius of converge is ∞ and the interval of converge is $( -\infty, \infty )$ .

Linear equations for Pre-IB Algebra 2. Solve for s, R(s + t) = st.

Anastaziya [24]

R(s + t) = st

Rs + Rt = st

Rs - st = -Rt

s ( R - t) = -Rt

*s = - Rt / (R - t) Multiply through by -1 on the right.

*s = Rt / (t - R) Put in the brackets in your answer. What you have been writing means

s = Rt/r - R you need the brackets. The stars mean that either could be an answer. I think your problem could be the brackets. Now I'm reasonably certain this is correct.

A random sample from a normal population is obtained, and the data are given below. Find a 90% confidence interval for . 114 157

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

$103.160 \leq \sigma \leq 187.476$

And the upper bound rounded to the nearest integer would be 187.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

Data given: 114 157 203 257 284 299 305 344 378 410 421 450 478 480 512 533 545

The confidence interval for the population variance $\sigma^2$ is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

$s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{17} (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}$

And in order to find the sample mean we just need to use this formula:

$\bar x =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}$

The sample mean obtained on this case is $\bar x= 362.941$ and the deviation s=132.250

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=17-1=16$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical values.
