Answer:

Least common multiple (x-3) ( x+5) (x +4 ).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : x² + x – 12 and x² + 2x – 15.

To find : Find the least common multiple.

Solution : We have given that : x² + x – 12 and x² + 2x – 15.

First : x² + x – 12

On factoring x² + 4x-3x – 12.

Taking common x (x +4 ) -3( x+4 )

(x -3 ) (x +4 )

For : x² + 5x -3x – 15.

Taking common x (x+5) -3( x +5)

(x-3) ( x+5)

Therefore, Least common multiple (x-3) ( x+5)(x +4 ).

Solution:

we have been asked to find the Least Common multiple of the given polynomial x² + x – 12 and x² + 2x – 15.

To find the least common multiple. Lets first find the factors.

$x^2+x-12=x^2+4x-3x-12\\ \\ x^2+x-12=x(x+4)-3(x+4)\\ \\ x^2+x-12=(x+4)(x-3)\\$

$x^2+2x-15=x^2+5x-3x-15\\ \\ x^2+2x-15=x(x+5)-3(x+5)\\ \\ x^2+2x-15=(x+5)(x-3)\\$

Hence the LCM of the given set of Polynomials is (x+4)(x-3)(x+5).

Use the power series for 1 1−x to find a power series representation of f(x) = ln(1−x). What is the radius of convergence? (Note

Viktor [21]

a. Recall that

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{1-x}=-\ln|1-x|+C$

For $|x|$ , we have

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

By integrating both sides, we get

$\displaystyle-\ln(1-x)=C+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}$

If $x=0$ , then

$\displaystyle-\ln1=C+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{0^{n+1}}{n+1}\implies 0=C+0\implies C=0$

so that

$\displaystyle\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}$

We can shift the index to simplify the sum slightly.

$\displaystyle\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{x^n}n$

b. The power series for $x\ln(1-x)$ can be obtained simply by multiplying both sides of the series above by $x$ .

$\displaystyle x\ln(1-x)=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{x^{n+1}}n$

c. We have

$\ln2=-\dfrac\ln12=-\ln\left(1-\dfrac12\right)$

$\displaystyle\implies\ln2=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1{n2^n}$

Which equation below does NOT represent a function of X A) x=y^2 B) y=x C) y = |x| D) y=x^2 E) y=1

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

A) $x = y^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation is a function of $x$ when $x$ is the independent variable, that is:

$y = f(x)$ (1)

Where $y$ is the dependent variable.

According to this, $x = y^{2}$ does not represent a function of $x$ , since the independent variable is a function of $y$ , that is, $x = f(y)$ . Therefore, the correct answer is A.
