The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (1, k) and (-1, -4) and the slope m = 3/2. Substitute:

$\dfrac{-4-k}{-1-1}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\dfrac{-4-k}{-2}=\dfrac{3}{2}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by (-2)}\\\\-4-k=-3\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\-k=1\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{k=-1}$

Use multiplication or division of power series to find the first three nonzero terms in the Maclaurin series for the function. (

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

So, the first three nonzero terms in the Maclaurin series are:

$6, \, 27x^2, \, \frac{405x^4}{4}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

From exercise we have the next function y = 6 sec(3x).

We know that Maclaurin series for the function sec x, have the following form:

$\sec x=1+\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{5x^4}{24}+...$

So, for the given function y = 6 sec(3x), we get:

$y = 6 \sec(3x)=6+27x^2+\frac{405x^4}{4}+...$

So, the first three nonzero terms in the Maclaurin series are:

$6, \, 27x^2, \, \frac{405x^4}{4}.$

What is the equation for 8= a-2

xenn [34]

Since we know that a - 2 will equal 8, it is safe to assume that 8 + 2 = 10. Therefore a=10.
