Answer:

Σ(-1)^kx^k for k = 0 to n

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth Maclaurin polynomials for f to be

Pn(x) = f(0) + f'(0)x + f''(0)x²/2! + f"'(0)x³/3! +. ......

The given function is.

f(x) = 1/(1+x)

Differentiate four times with respect to x

f(x) = 1/(1+x)

f'(x) = -1/(1+x)²

f''(x) = 2/(1+x)³

f'''(x) = -6/(1+x)⁴

f''''(x) = 24/(1+x)^5

To calculate with a coefficient of 1

f(0) = 1

f'(0) = -1

f''(0) = 2

f'''(0) = -6

f''''(0) = 24

Findinf Pn(x) for n = 0 to 4.

Po(x) = 1

P1(x) = 1 - x

P2(x) = 1 - x + x²

P3(x) = 1 - x+ x² - x³

P4(x) = 1 - x+ x² - x³+ x⁴

Hence, the nth Maclaurin polynomials is

1 - x+ x² - x³+ x⁴ +.......+(-1)^nx^n

= Σ(-1)^kx^k for k = 0 to n

klasskru [66]

Answer:

The standard error of the mean is 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we don't know the standard deviation of the population, we can estimate the standard error of the mean from the standard deviation of the sample as:

\sigma_{\bar{x}}\approx\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

The sample is [30mins, 40 mins, 60 mins, 80 mins, 20 mins, 85 mins]. The size of the sample is n=6.

The mean of the sample is:

\bar{x}=\frac{1}n} \sum x_i =\frac{30+40+60+80+20+85}{6}=52.5

The standard deviation of the sample is calculated as:

s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x_i-\bar x)^2} \\\\ s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{5}\cdot ((30-52.5)^2+(40-52.5)^2+(60-52.5)^2+(80-52.5)^2+(20-52.5)^2+(85-52.5)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{5} *3587.5}=\sqrt{717.5}=26.8

Then, we can calculate the standard error of the mean as:

\sigma_{\bar{x}}\approx\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{26.8}{6}= 4.5
