Answer:

the least integer for n is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

f(x) = ln(1+x)

centered at x=0

Pn(0.2)

Error < 0.01

We will use the format;

[[Max(f^(n+1) (c))]/(n + 1)!] × 0.2^(n+1) < 0.01

So;

f(x) = ln(1+x)

First derivative: f'(x) = 1/(x + 1) < 0! = 1

2nd derivative: f"(x) = -1/(x + 1)² < 1! = 1

3rd derivative: f"'(x) = 2/(x + 1)³ < 2! = 2

4th derivative: f""(x) = -6/(x + 1)⁴ < 3! = 6

This follows that;

Max|f^(n+1) (c)| < n!

Thus, error is;

(n!/(n + 1)!) × 0.2^(n + 1) < 0.01

This gives;

(1/(n + 1)) × 0.2^(n + 1) < 0.01

Let's try n = 1

(1/(1 + 1)) × 0.2^(1 + 1) = 0.02

This is greater than 0.01 and so it will not work.

Let's try n = 2

(1/(2 + 1)) × 0.2^(2 + 1) = 0.00267

This is less than 0.01.

So,the least integer for n is 2

A manufacturer wants to make open tin boxes from pieces of tin with dimensions 8 in. by 15 in. by cutting equal squares from the
Stells [14]

Answer:

\frac{5}{3} in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the side of square.

Length of box=8-2x

Width of box=15-2x

Height of box=x

Volume of box=L\times B\times H

Substitute the values then we get

Volume of box=V(x)=(8-2x)(15-2x)x=(15x-2x^2)(8-2x)

V(x)=120x-30x^2-16x^2+4x^3

V(x)=4x^3-46x^2+120x

Differentiate w.r.t x

V'(x)=12x^2-92x+120

V'(x)=0

12x^2-92x+120=0

3x^2-23x+30=0

3x^2-18x-5x+30=0

3x(x-6)-5(x-6)=0

(x-6)(3x-5)=0

x-6=0\implies x=6

3x-5=0\implies x=\frac{5}{3}

Again differentiate w.r.t x

V''(x)=24x-92

Substitute x=6

V''(6)=24(6)-92=52>0

Substitute x=5/3

V''(5/3)=24(5/3)-92=-52

Hence, the volume is maximum at x=\frac{5}{3}

Therefore, the side of the square ,x=\frac{5}{3} in cutout that gives the box the largest possible volume.

Juan did a survey in four butterfly parks and wrote the following observations: Butterfly Park Survey Park Number of Pink Butter
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Park Q has greatest percentage of pink butterflies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Butterfly Park Survey Park           P     Q      R       S

No, of Pink Butterflies                  25    35   37      23

Total Number of Butterflies          53    64   75     55

Now we are supposed to find which park had the greatest percentage of pink butterflies

So, Percentage of pink butterflies in park P =\frac{25}{53} \times 100=47.169\%

Percentage of pink butterflies in park Q =\frac{35}{64} \times 100=54.68\%

Percentage of pink butterflies in park R= \frac{37}{75} \times 100=49.33\%

Percentage of pink butterflies in park S= \frac{23}{55} \times 100=41.81\%

So, Park Q has greatest percentage of pink butterflies.

So, Option B is true

Hence Park Q has greatest percentage of pink butterflies.
