Prove or disprove (from i=0 to n) sum([2i]^4) <= (4n)^4. If true use induction, else give the smallest value of n that it doe

ddd [48]

Answer:

The statement is true for every n between 0 and 77 and it is false for $n\geq 78$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, observe that, for n=0 and n=1 the statement is true:

For n=0: $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=0 \leq 0=(4n)^4$

For n=1: $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=16 \leq 256=(4n)^4$

From this point we will assume that $n\geq 2$

As we can see, $\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=\sum^{n}_{i=0} 16i^4=16\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4$ and $(4n)^4=256n^4$ . Then,

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4 \leq(4n)^4 \iff \sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4$

Now, we will use the formula for the sum of the first 4th powers:

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4=\frac{n^5}{5} +\frac{n^4}{2} +\frac{n^3}{3}-\frac{n}{30}=\frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30}$

Therefore:

$\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4 \iff \frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30} \leq 16n^4 \\\\ \iff 6n^5+10n^3-n \leq 465n^4 \iff 465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0$

and, because $n \geq 0$ ,

$465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0 \iff n(465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1)\geq 0 \\\iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1\geq 0 \iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2\geq -1\\\iff n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1$

Observe that, because $n \geq 2$ and is an integer,

$n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1 \iff 465n-6n^2-10 \geq 0 \iff n(465-6n) \geq 10\\\iff 465-6n \geq 0 \iff n \leq \frac{465}{6}=\frac{155}{2}=77.5$

In concusion, the statement is true if and only if n is a non negative integer such that $n\leq 77$

So, 78 is the smallest value of n that does not satisfy the inequality.

Note: If you compute $(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4$ for 77 and 78 you will obtain:

$(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=53810064$

$(4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=-61754992$

Can someone please help me

Aneli [31]

Answer:

r = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for r, plug in the change in x values and change in y values, since the hypotenuse is simply the diagonal of both the y-coordinate and x-coordinates shown via drawing legs on the vertical and horizontal axis. So, since (0,0) is the initial point, r = sqr[(-4-0)^2 + (-3-0)^2 = sqr(16 + 9) = 5.

Now, the angle theta is the angle in which the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios are found. Simply use opposite over hypotenuse for sine, adjacent over hypotenuse for cosine, and opposite over adjacent for tangent using theta as the angle in which these values are obtained.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = ∑x/ N

91 = ∑x / 150

∑x = 150 * 91 = 13650

x= 6825 and y = 6825

What are the solutions to the equation?

nalin [4]

Solutions are 3 and - 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Given equation is 3x² + 6x = 45. Factorize the equation to get the solutions.

⇒ 3x² + 6x - 45 = 0

⇒ x² + 2x - 15 = 0

⇒ x² + 5x - 3x - 15 = 0 (Product and Sum Method where product of coefficients = - 15 and sum = 2)

⇒ x (x + 5) - 3(x + 5) = 0

⇒ (x - 3)(x + 5) = 0

⇒ x = 3, - 5
