ds of $500,000, $2,000, and $500. The host of the show says you can either open one random case and keep the amount inside, or you can accept a guaranteed award of $160,000. What is the mathematically correct decision, and why?

I think the correct decision to make is to accept the guaranteed award of $160000 because the probability of choosing the briefcase containing 500,000 dollars is very low. Chances are you would be able to choose the cases with lower value than the guaranteed award. Hope this helps.

Find the Taylor series for f(x) centered at the given value of a. [Assume that f has a power series expansion. Do not show that
kherson [118]

Answer:

The answer is

f(x) = {\displaystyle  8 + \frac{-28}{1}(x+2)+\frac{-36}{2!}(x+2)^2 + \frac{-18}{3!}(x+2)^2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that Taylor says that

f(x) = {\displaystyle \sum\limits_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(k)}(a) }{k!}(x-a)^k }

For this case

f^{(0)} (-2) = 8(-2)-3(-2)^3 = 8\\f^{(1)} (-2) = 8-3(3)(-2)^2 = -28\\f^{(2)} (-2) = -3(3)2(-2) = -36\\f^{(2)} (-2) = -3(3)2 = -18

f(x) = {\displaystyle  8 + \frac{-28}{1}(x+2)+\frac{-36}{2!}(x+2)^2 + \frac{-18}{3!}(x+2)^2 }

Operations that can be applied to a matrix in the process of Gauss Jordan elimination are :

replacing the row with twice that row

replacing a row with the sum of that row and another row

swapping rows

Step-by-step explanation:

Gauss-Jordan Elimination is a matrix based way used to solve linear equations or to find inverse of a matrix.

The elimentary row(or column) operations that can be used are:

1. Swap any two rows(or colums)

2. Add or subtract scalar multiple of one row(column) to another row(column)

as is done in replacing a row with sum of that row and another row.

3. Multiply any row (or column) entirely by a non zero scalar as is done in replacing the row with twice the row, here scalar used = 2
