$T_n = a_1 + (n - 1) d$

<em>The sequence is:</em>
24, 31, 38,45, 52

<em>We can see from the sequence:</em>
a = 24, d = 7

<em>Find nth term:</em>
$T_n = 24 + 7(n - 1)$
$T_n = 24 + 7n - 7$
$T_n = 7n + 17$

<em>When = 500,</em>
$T_{500} = 7(500) + 17$
$T_{500} = 3517$

Answer: 500th term is 3517

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

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

$f(x)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{(n-1)}2^{n}\dfrac{x^n}{n}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Maclaurin series of a function f(x) is the Taylor series of the function of the series around zero which is given by

$f(x)=f(0)+f^{\prime}(0)x+f^{\prime \prime}(0)\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+ ...+f^{(n)}(0)\dfrac{x^n}{n!}+...$

We first compute the n-th derivative of $f(x)=\ln(1+2x)$ , note that

$f^{\prime}(x)= 2 \cdot (1+2x)^{-1}\\f^{\prime \prime}(x)= 2^2\cdot (-1) \cdot (1+2x)^{-2}\\f^{\prime \prime}(x)= 2^3\cdot (-1)^2\cdot 2 \cdot (1+2x)^{-3}\\...\\\\f^{n}(x)= 2^n\cdot (-1)^{(n-1)}\cdot (n-1)! \cdot (1+2x)^{-n}\\$

Now, if we compute the n-th derivative at 0 we get

$f(0)=\ln(1+2\cdot 0)=\ln(1)=0\\\\f^{\prime}(0)=2 \cdot 1 =2\\\\f^{(2)}(0)=2^{2}\cdot(-1)\\\\f^{(3)}(0)=2^{3}\cdot (-1)^2\cdot 2\\\\...\\\\f^{(n)}(0)=2^n\cdot(-1)^{(n-1)}\cdot (n-1)!$

and so the Maclaurin series for f(x)=ln(1+2x) is given by

$f(x)=0+2x-2^2\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+2^3\cdot 2! \dfrac{x^3}{3!}+...+(-1)^{(n-1)}(n-1)!\cdot 2^n\dfrac{x^n}{n!}+...\\\\= 0 + 2x -2^2 \dfrac{x^2}{2!}+2^3\dfrac{x^3}{3!}+...+(-1)^{(n-1)}2^{n}\dfrac{x^n}{n}+...\\\\=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{(n-1)}2^n\dfrac{x^n}{n}$
