ILL MARK BRAINILEST (100 POINTS) !!! Factor the polynomial 7xy + 14x − 35y − 70 completely. 7(2x − 5)(y + 2) 7(x − 5)(y + 2) 7(x

Vlad [161]

Answer:

B. 7(x − 5)(y + 2)

Explanation:

A. 7(2x − 5)(y + 2) = 14xy + 28x − 35y − 70 (Wrong)

B. 7(x − 5)(y + 2) = 7xy + 14x − 35y − 70 (Correct)

C. 7(x − 2)(y + 5) = 7xy + 35x− 14y − 70 (Wrong)

D. 7(x − 10)(y + 2) = 7xy + 14x − 70y − 140 (Wrong)

How many nonzero terms of the Maclaurin series for ln(1 x) do you need to use to estimate ln(1.4) to within 0.001?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

The estimate of In(1.4) is the first five non-zero terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

We are to find the estimate of In(1 . 4) within 0.001 by applying the function of the Maclaurin series for f(x) = In (1 + x)

So, by the application of Maclurin Series which can be expressed as:

$f(x) = f(0) + \dfrac{xf'(0)}{1!}+ \dfrac{x^2 f"(0)}{2!}+ \dfrac{x^3f'(0)}{3!}+... \ \ \ \ \ --- (1)$

Let examine f(x) = In(1+x), then find its derivatives;

f(x) = In(1+x)

$f'(x) = \dfrac{1}{1+x}$

f'(0) $= \dfrac{1}{1+0}=1$

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

f ' ' (x) $= \dfrac{1}{(1+0)^2}=-1$

f ' ' '(x) $= \dfrac{2}{(1+x)^3}$

f ' ' '(x) $= \dfrac{2}{(1+0)^3} = 2$

f ' ' ' '(x) $= \dfrac{6}{(1+x)^4}$

f ' ' ' '(x) $= \dfrac{6}{(1+0)^4}=-6$

f ' ' ' ' ' (x) $= \dfrac{24}{(1+x)^5} = 24$

f ' ' ' ' ' (x) $= \dfrac{24}{(1+0)^5} = 24$

Now, the next process is to substitute the above values back into equation (1)

$f(x) = f(0) + \dfrac{xf'(0)}{1!}+ \dfrac{x^2f' \ '(0)}{2!}+\dfrac{x^3f \ '\ '\ '(0)}{3!}+\dfrac{x^4f '\ '\ ' \ ' \(0)}{4!}+\dfrac{x^5f' \ ' \ ' \ ' \ '0)}{5!}+ ...$

$In(1+x) = o + \dfrac{x(1)}{1!}+ \dfrac{x^2(-1)}{2!}+ \dfrac{x^3(2)}{3!}+ \dfrac{x^4(-6)}{4!}+ \dfrac{x^5(24)}{5!}+ ...$

$In (1+x) = x - \dfrac{x^2}{2}+\dfrac{x^3}{3}-\dfrac{x^4}{4}+\dfrac{x^5}{5}- \dfrac{x^6}{6}+...$

To estimate the value of In(1.4), let's replace x with 0.4

$In (1+x) = x - \dfrac{x^2}{2}+\dfrac{x^3}{3}-\dfrac{x^4}{4}+\dfrac{x^5}{5}- \dfrac{x^6}{6}+...$

$In (1+0.4) = 0.4 - \dfrac{0.4^2}{2}+\dfrac{0.4^3}{3}-\dfrac{0.4^4}{4}+\dfrac{0.4^5}{5}- \dfrac{0.4^6}{6}+...$

Therefore, from the above calculations, we will realize that the value of $\dfrac{0.4^5}{5}= 0.002048$ as well as $\dfrac{0.4^6}{6}= 0.00068267$ which are less than 0.001
