To demonstrate a method for computing the limit itself, let's pick a small value of n. If n = 3, then our limit is

\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0 } \frac{1 - \prod \limits_{k = 2}^{3} \sqrt[k]{\cos(kx)} }{ {x}^{2} }

Let a = 1 and b the cosine product, and write them as

\dfrac{a - b}{x^2}

with

b = \sqrt{\cos(2x)} \sqrt[3]{\cos(3x)} = \sqrt[6]{\cos^3(2x)} \sqrt[6]{\cos^2(3x)} = \left(\cos^3(2x) \cos^2(3x)\right)^{\frac16}

Now we use the identity

a^n-b^n = (a-b)\left(a^{n-1}+a^{n-2}b+a^{n-3}b^2+\cdots a^2b^{n-3}+ab^{n-2}+b^{n-1}\right)

to rationalize the numerator. This gives

\displaystyle \frac{a^6-b^6}{x^2 \left(a^5+a^4b+a^3b^2+a^2b^3+ab^4+b^5\right)}

As x approaches 0, both a and b approach 1, so the polynomial in a and b in the denominator approaches 6, and our original limit reduces to

\displaystyle \frac16 \lim_{x\to0} \frac{1-\cos^3(2x)\cos^2(3x)}{x^2}

For the remaining limit, use the Taylor expansion for cos(x) :

\cos(x) = 1 - \dfrac{x^2}2 + \mathcal{O}(x^4)

where \mathcal{O}(x^4) essentially means that all the other terms in the expansion grow as quickly as or faster than x⁴; in other words, the expansion behaves asymptotically like x⁴. As x approaches 0, all these terms go to 0 as well.

Then

\displaystyle \cos^3(2x) \cos^2(3x) = \left(1 - 2x^2\right)^3 \left(1 - \frac{9x^2}2\right)^2

\displaystyle \cos^3(2x) \cos^2(3x) = \left(1 - 6x^2 + 12x^4 - 8x^6\right) \left(1 - 9x^2 + \frac{81x^4}4\right)

\displaystyle \cos^3(2x) \cos^2(3x) = 1 - 15x^2 + \mathcal{O}(x^4)

so in our limit, the constant terms cancel, and the asymptotic terms go to 0, and we end up with

\displaystyle \frac16 \lim_{x\to0} \frac{15x^2}{x^2} = \frac{15}6 = \frac52

Unfortunately, this doesn't agree with the limit we want, so n ≠ 3. But you can try applying this method for larger n, or computing a more general result.

Edit: some scratch work suggests the limit is 10 for n = 6.

Marcie bought a 50- foot roll of package tape. She used two 8 5/6foot lengths. How much tape is left in the roll
Yuliya22 [10]
50 feet - 8 5/6 =

First off, 8 5/6 feet = 8.83

Next, we can subtract. 50 - 8.83 = 41.17

in 2013 January there were 360 pupils in school the ratio of boots to girls was 5:4 in February 18 boys were admitted in school
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

218

Step-by-step explanation:

this is ratio.

5+4=9. which is the ratio you add it.

5/9×360=200

therefore the number of boys in school during 2013 january is 200 plus admitted boys in February is 200+18=218.

therefore the number of boys in school from january to february is 218.
