Answer:

Here we just want to find the Taylor series for f(x) = ln(x), centered at the value of a (which we do not know).

Remember that the general Taylor expansion is:

f(x) = f(a) + f'(a)*(x - a) + \frac{1}{2!}*f''(a)(x -a)^2 + ...

for our function we have:

f'(x) =  1/x

f''(x) = -1/x^2

f'''(x) =  (1/2)*(1/x^3)

this is enough, now just let's write the series:

f(x) = ln(a) +  \frac{1}{a} *(x - a) - \frac{1}{2!} *\frac{1}{a^2} *(x - a)^2 + \frac{1}{3!} *\frac{1}{2*a^3} *(x - a)^3 + ....

This is the Taylor series to 3rd degree, you just need to change the value of a for the required value.

To find the cross product, you can set this up as a proportion. Please see the attached paper for one of the proportions you could use.

You would then multiply the numbers that are diagonal from each other.

You would have 21(8) = 12x or
168=12x.

A dentist polls his patients and finds that 83 percent brush their teeth at least twice a day, 47 percent floss daily, and 19 pe
puteri [66]

Answer:

The correct option is B. 23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that patient brushes his teeth at least twice a day is denoted by A

So, P(A) = 0.83

Let the event that patient flosses daily is denoted by B

So, P(B) = 0.47

Now, it is given that 19 percent patients brush at least twice a day and floss daily.

⇒ P(A and B) = 0.19

Now, we need to find conditional probability of occurring event B given A has occurred.

\implies P(B|A) =\frac{P(A\: and\: B)}{P(A)}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = \frac{0.19}{0.83}\\\\\implies P(B|A) = 0.2289\approx 0.23

Hence, Nearest required percentage = 23%

Therefore, The correct option is B. 23%

HELP!! Suppose the area of a circle is 201.0624 square feet. What's the diameter of the circle? (Use π = 3.1416.)
Liono4ka [1.6K]

<u>Answer</u>

C. 16 feet


<u>Explanation</u>

The area of a circle is given by the formula:

Area = πr² Where r is the radius of the circle and π = 3.1416

201.0624 = 3.1416 × r²

r² = 201.0624/3.1416

    = 64

r = √64

   = 8 feet

Diameter is twice the radius.

∴ diameter = 2r

                  = 2 × 8

                  = 16 feet
