X + y = k

1 answer:

7 0

If x+y=k, then x=k-y. Substitute k-y for x in the other equation. So (k-y)-y=k. k-2y =k which means y has to be 0 (both k's subtract on both sides). -2y=0. The answer: (k,0). For the second part, get all the parts of the equations on both sides; (make both sides equal zero) 3x-4y-7 and 3x+2y+5. Then subtract. 3x-4y-7-(3x+2y+5) Make it equal to zero again and solve! :) -6y-12=0 -6y=12!! ta da!

The expression 0.00222 x 10^n is greater than 2 (and n is an integer). what is the smallest possible value for n

77julia77 [94]

The smallest value for n is -3
When you move the decimal point to the right, the exponent on the 10 will be negative
move the decimal point to the right 3 times and you get 2.22 x 10^-3
2.22 is greater than two

Derivative Rule [Quotient Rule]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} ]=\frac{g(x)f'(x)-g'(x)f(x)}{g^2(x)}$

Derivative Rule [Chain Rule]: $\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[f(g(x))] =f'(g(x)) \cdot g'(x)$

MacLaurin/Taylor Polynomials

Approximating Transcendental and Elementary functions
MacLaurin Polynomial: $\displaystyle P_n(x) = \frac{f(0)}{0!} + \frac{f'(0)}{1!}x + \frac{f''(0)}{2!}x^2 + \frac{f'''(0)}{3!}x^3 + ... + \frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}x^n$
Taylor Polynomial: $\displaystyle P_n(x) = \frac{f(c)}{0!} + \frac{f'(c)}{1!}(x - c) + \frac{f''(c)}{2!}(x - c)^2 + \frac{f'''(c)}{3!}(x - c)^3 + ... + \frac{f^{(n)}(c)}{n!}(x - c)^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note: I will not be showing the work for derivatives as it is relatively straightforward. If you request for me to show that portion, please leave a comment so I can add it. I will also not show work for elementary calculations.

Step 1: Define

Identify

f(x) = ln(1 - x)

Center: x = 0

n = 3

Step 2: Differentiate

[Function] 1st Derivative: $\displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{1}{x - 1}$
[Function] 2nd Derivative: $\displaystyle f''(x) = \frac{-1}{(x - 1)^2}$
[Function] 3rd Derivative: $\displaystyle f'''(x) = \frac{2}{(x - 1)^3}$

Step 3: Evaluate Functions

Substitute in center x [Function]: $\displaystyle f(0) = ln(1 - 0)$
Simplify: $\displaystyle f(0) = 0$
Substitute in center x [1st Derivative]: $\displaystyle f'(0) = \frac{1}{0 - 1}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle f'(0) = -1$
Substitute in center x [2nd Derivative]: $\displaystyle f''(0) = \frac{-1}{(0 - 1)^2}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle f''(0) = -1$
Substitute in center x [3rd Derivative]: $\displaystyle f'''(0) = \frac{2}{(0 - 1)^3}$
Simplify: $\displaystyle f'''(0) = -2$

Step 4: Write Taylor Polynomial

Substitute in derivative function values [MacLaurin Polynomial]: $\displaystyle P_3(x) = \frac{0}{0!} + \frac{-1}{1!}x + \frac{-1}{2!}x^2 + \frac{-2}{3!}x^3$
Simplify: $\displaystyle P_3(x) = -x - \frac{x^2}{2} - \frac{x^3}{3}$
