For every 5 red = to 15 blue 5:15

Answer:

Option B. For every 5 red pens, there are 15 blue pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement expressed the ratio of the red pens to the total as 1 : 4.

This means that for every red pen in the box, there are 4 blue pens.

So, statement A is correct.

Let's skip B an look at other statements as well:

For C, the ratio will be 15 : 60 which translates to 1 : 4. So C is true.

Let's look at D.

This is an interesting one. The problem defines 18 as blue. So it means that 24 - 18 = 6

6 pens will be blue. Again 6 : 24 gives us 1 : 4. So D is true.

B gives us 5 : 24 which is not true.

1) Use power series to find the series solution to the differential equation y'+2y = 0 PLEASE SHOW ALL YOUR WORK, OR RISK LOSING
iogann1982 [59]

If

y=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n

then

y'=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty na_nx^{n-1}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+1)a_{n+1}x^n

The ODE in terms of these series is

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+1)a_{n+1}x^n+2\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n=0

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\bigg(a_{n+1}+2a_n\bigg)x^n=0

\implies\begin{cases}a_0=y(0)\\(n+1)a_{n+1}=-2a_n&\text{for }n\ge0\end{cases}

We can solve the recurrence exactly by substitution:

a_{n+1}=-\dfrac2{n+1}a_n=\dfrac{2^2}{(n+1)n}a_{n-1}=-\dfrac{2^3}{(n+1)n(n-1)}a_{n-2}=\cdots=\dfrac{(-2)^{n+1}}{(n+1)!}a_0

\implies a_n=\dfrac{(-2)^n}{n!}a_0

So the ODE has solution

y(x)=\displaystyle a_0\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(-2x)^n}{n!}

which you may recognize as the power series of the exponential function. Then

\boxed{y(x)=a_0e^{-2x}}
