Width = x
length = x+10

Area of deck = 144 square feet

Area = length * width

144 = x(x+10)

Solving for x in a quadratic:

x²+10x = 144
x²+10x-144 = 0

Factor:
(x+18)(x-8) = 0

Solving for x:
x = 8, x = -18

Dimensions cannot be negative, therefore x = 8, only.

Length = x + 10
Length = 18

Width = 8

If f (n)(0) = (n + 1)! for n = 0, 1, 2, , find the taylor series at a=0 for f.
Pie
Given that f^{(n)}(0)=(n+1)!, we have for f(x) the Taylor series expansion about 0 as

f(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{(n+1)!}{n!}x^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+1)x^n

Replace n+1 with n, so that the series is equivalent to

f(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}

and notice that

\displaystyle\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n=\sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}

Recall that for |x|, we have

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n=\frac1{1-x}

which means

f(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty nx^{n-1}=\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\frac1{1-x}
\implies f(x)=\dfrac1{(1-x)^2}
