Answer:

Yes it is.

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x^2-18)(x+3)(x-3)

= (2x^2 - 18(x^2 - 9)

= 2x^4 - 18x^2 - 18x^2 + 162

= 2x^4 - 36x^2 + 162.

The left side transforms to the right side so it is an identity.

Answer the question with explanation;

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The statement in the question is wrong. The series actually diverges.

Step-by-step explanation:

We compute

$\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{n^2}{(n+1)^2}=\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(\frac{n^2}{n^2+2n+1}\cdot\frac{1/n^2}{1/n^2}\right)=\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac1{1+2/n+1/n^2}=\frac1{1+0+0}=1\ne0$

Therefore, by the series divergence test, the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{n^2}{(n+1)^2}$ diverges.

EDIT: To VectorFundament120, if $(x_n)_{n\in\mathbb N}$ is a sequence, both $\lim x_n$ and $\lim_{n\to\infty}x_n$ are common notation for its limit. The former is not wrong but I have switched to the latter if that helps.

$e\cdot e^x -e^{-2}=-2$

$\implies e^{x+1}=e^{-2}-2$

note that RHS is negative. (because e with negative exponent is less than 1)

and LHS is always positive.

so there cannot be any solution

At the market, 8 apples cost $4dollar. How much do 9 apples cost?

Lorico [155]

Answer: $4.50 for 9 apples

Step-by-step explanation: To find out how much it is for 1 apple, we need to find the unit price of 1 apple which is the cost per apple.

Since we know that it costs $4 for 8 apples, to find the cost for 1 apple, we need to divide 8 into $4 or 4 divided by 8 which is 0.5 of 50 cents per apple.

Since we know that it costs 50 cents per apple, to find the cost for 9 apples, we will need to multiply .50 by 9.

(.50) (9) = 4.50

Therefore, it will cost $4.50 for 9 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's add the amounts earned together to find his total earnings. This is 60 + 84 + 72 + 96 + 48 = $360. If he had $218 left over the skis cost 360 - 218 = $142.
