Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Without brackets, we are not exactly sure what is under the root sign. There are 3 choices.

sqrt(x) + 2 - 15 = - 3

sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3

sqrt(x + 2 - 15) = - 3

I think the middle one is what you intend. If not leave a note.

sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3 Add 15 to both sides.

sqrt(x + 2) - 15+15 = - 3+15 Combine

sqrt(x + 2) = 12 Square both sides

x + 2 = 12^2 Do the right

x + 2 = 144 Subtract 2 from both sides.

x + 2-2 = 144-2

x = 142

How do i solve p+4-1-(4+r) use p=4 and r=1

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate p + 4 - 1 - (r + 4) where p = 4 and r = 1:

p + 4 - 1 - (r + 4) = 4 + 4 - 1 - (4 + 1)

4 + 1 = 5:

4 + 4 - 1 - 5

4 + 4 - 1 - 5 = (4 + 4) - (1 + 5):

(4 + 4) - (1 + 5)

4 + 4 = 8:

8 - (1 + 5)

1 + 5 = 6:

8 - 6

8 - 6 = 2:

The square root of 5 less than twice a number is 7. find the number

Sati [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number to find out be 'x'

Therefore,

according to the condition given question, we get the equation as

$\sqrt{2x-5}=7$

Now,

squaring both the sides, we get

2x - 5 = 49

on adding 5 both sides, we get

2x - 5 + 5 = 49 + 5

2x = 54

x = $\frac{\textup{54}}{\textup{2}}$

x = 27

Hence, the number is 27

Find the Maclaurin series for f(x) using the definition of a Maclaurin series. [Assume that f has a power series expansion. Do n

Darina [25.2K]

Recall that for |x| < 1, we have

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

Differentiating both sides gives

$\displaystyle \frac1{(1-x)^2} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)x^n$

and multiplying both sides by 8 gives the series for f(x) :

$f(x)=\displaystyle \frac8{(1-x)^2} = \boxed{8\sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)x^n}$

and this converges over the same interval, |x| < 1, so that the radius of convergence is 1.
