If x is the original price
then 0.80 x = 290
x = 290 / 0.80 = £362.50

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

Mazyrski [523]

We can use the fact that, for $|x|$ ,

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

Notice that

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1{1-x}\right]=\dfrac1{(1-x)^2}$

so that

$f(x)=\displaystyle\frac5{(1-x)^2}=5\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n\right]$

$f(x)=\displaystyle5\sum_{n=0}^\infty nx^{n-1}$

$f(x)=\displaystyle5\sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}$

$f(x)=\displaystyle5\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+1)x^n$

By the ratio test, this series converges if

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{(n+2)x^{n+1}}{(n+1)x^n}\right|=|x|\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{n+2}{n+1}=|x|$

so the series has radius of convergence $R=1$ .

Use a double angle identity to rewrite the formula r(Θ)=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%2F16v%5E2sin%28theta%29cos%28theta%2

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

1/32v²sin2θ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression r(theta) = 1/16v²sinθcosθ

According to double angle of trigonometry identity;

Sin2θ = sin(θ+θ)

Sin2θ = sinθcosθ + cosθsinθ

Sin2θ = 2sinθcosθ

sinθcosθ = sin2θ/2 ... **

Substituting equation ** into the question

1/16v²sinθcosθ = 1/16v²(sin2θ/2)

1/16v²sinθcosθ = 1/2×1/16v²(sin2θ)

1/16v²sinθcosθ = 1/32v²sin2θ

Hence using the double angle identity, the equivalent expression is 1/32v²sin2θ

linda enrolls for 10 credit-hours for each of two semesters at a coat of $650 per credit-hour. in addition, textbooks cost $300

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

13,600 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

So if Linda has 20 credit hours in total, and you multiply that by 650 dollars, that will equal 13,000 dollars. If you add 600 (which is the cost of the textbooks for both semesters) to that it will equal 13,600
