Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The formula for this is

Heat = m * c * Δt

Givens

Heat = unknown

m = 200 grams

c = 4.184 Joules / grams oC

Δt = the change in temperature = 35.7 - 22.3 = 13.4

Solution

Heat = 200 * 4.184 * 13.4

Heat = 11213 Joules

Heat = 11.2 Kj

It's hard to get the correct number of sig digs because the 200 is not qualified in any way.

Part 2.

This can really puzzle you until you know that heat given up = the heat taken on. The heat taken on was 11.2 Kj. The Butane lighter must have given that heat on.

Heat of Combustion = Heat Given Up / Number grams burned.

Heat of Combustion = 11.2 Kj / 0.23 grams

Heat of Combustion = 48.8 Kj / gram

x+(x+3)+x^2=75 Please help........ Everyone is giving me answers i know arent true...

son4ous [18]

x + (x + 3) + $x^{2}$ = 75

so you will add up all of the x 's but NOT the x^2

2x + 3 + $x^{2}$ = 75

Rearrange to put the x^2 in front of 2x

$x^{2}$ + 2x + 3 = 75

subtract the 75 from both sides

$x^{2}$ + 2x - 72 = 0

Transform the equation 3x + y = 5 into slope-intercept form.

marin [14]

Answer: y=-3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b. So to make your equation into slope-intercept form, simply subtract 3x from both sides, which results in y=-3x+5

Find a power series representation for the function. (Give your power series representation centered at x = 0.) f(x) = x/6x^2 +

timama [110]

Looks like your function is

$f(x)=\dfrac x{6x^2+1}$

Rewrite it as

$f(x)=\dfrac x{1-(-6x^2)}$

Recall that for $|x|$ , we have

$\dfrac1{1-x}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n$

If we replace $x$ with $-6x^2$ , we get

$f(x)=\displaystyle x\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac(-6x^2)^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-6)^n x^{2n+1}$

By the ratio test, the series converges if

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{(-6)^{n+1} x^{2(n+1)+1}}{(-6)^n x^{2n+1}}\right|=6|x^2|\lim_{n\to\infty}1=6|x|^2$

Solving for $x$ gives the interval of convergence,

$|x|^2$

We can confirm that the interval is open by checking for convergence at the endpoints; we'd find that the resulting series diverge.
