Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -6 = 18

Add 6 to both sides.

8x = 24

Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x.

x = 3

y′′ −y = 0, x0 = 0 Seek power series solutions of the given differential equation about the given point x 0; find the recurrence

sukhopar [10]

Let

$\displaystyle y(x) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n = a_0 + a_1x + a_2x^2 + \cdots$

Differentiating twice gives

$\displaystyle y'(x) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty na_nx^{n-1} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1) a_{n+1} x^n = a_1 + 2a_2x + 3a_3x^2 + \cdots$

$\displaystyle y''(x) = \sum_{n=2}^\infty n (n-1) a_nx^{n-2} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+2) (n+1) a_{n+2} x^n$

When x = 0, we observe that y(0) = a₀ and y'(0) = a₁ can act as initial conditions.

Substitute these into the given differential equation:

$\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+2)(n+1) a_{n+2} x^n - \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n = 0$

$\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty \bigg((n+2)(n+1) a_{n+2} - a_n\bigg) x^n = 0$

Then the coefficients in the power series solution are governed by the recurrence relation,

$\begin{cases}a_0 = y(0) \\ a_1 = y'(0) \\\\ a_{n+2} = \dfrac{a_n}{(n+2)(n+1)} & \text{for }n\ge0\end{cases}$

Since the n-th coefficient depends on the (n - 2)-th coefficient, we split n into two cases.

• If n is even, then n = 2k for some integer k ≥ 0. Then

$k=0 \implies n=0 \implies a_0 = a_0$

$k=1 \implies n=2 \implies a_2 = \dfrac{a_0}{2\cdot1}$

$k=2 \implies n=4 \implies a_4 = \dfrac{a_2}{4\cdot3} = \dfrac{a_0}{4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}$

$k=3 \implies n=6 \implies a_6 = \dfrac{a_4}{6\cdot5} = \dfrac{a_0}{6\cdot5\cdot4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}$

It should be easy enough to see that

$a_{n=2k} = \dfrac{a_0}{(2k)!}$

• If n is odd, then n = 2k + 1 for some k ≥ 0. Then

$k = 0 \implies n=1 \implies a_1 = a_1$

$k = 1 \implies n=3 \implies a_3 = \dfrac{a_1}{3\cdot2}$

$k = 2 \implies n=5 \implies a_5 = \dfrac{a_3}{5\cdot4} = \dfrac{a_1}{5\cdot4\cdot3\cdot2}$

$k=3 \implies n=7 \implies a_7=\dfrac{a_5}{7\cdot6} = \dfrac{a_1}{7\cdot6\cdot5\cdot4\cdot3\cdot2}$

so that

$a_{n=2k+1} = \dfrac{a_1}{(2k+1)!}$

So, the overall series solution is

$\displaystyle y(x) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \left(a_{2k}x^{2k} + a_{2k+1}x^{2k+1}\right)$

$\boxed{\displaystyle y(x) = a_0 \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{x^{2k}}{(2k)!} + a_1 \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{x^{2k+1}}{(2k+1)!}}$

If a tree 41.8 feet tall casts a shadow that is 27 feet long, find the height of a tree casting a shadow that is 18.3 feet long

Neko [114]

Answer:

28.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a tree 41.8 feet tall casts a shadow that is 27 feet long

So the Tangent of the angle of the sahdow remains the same for the both trees.

We know that $Tanx=\frac{height of the tree}{length of the shadow}$

$\frac{height of the tree1}{length of the shadow1} = \frac{height of the tree2}{length of the shadow2}$

$\frac{41.8}{27} =\frac{x}{18.3}$

$x=\frac{41.8}{27}\times18.3 =28.3$

Therefore the height of the tree is 28.3 feet

Why must fire extinguishers be routinely maintained?

eduard

Answer: the answer would be To make sure they remain effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

It wouldn't be to make sure they are up to code because fire extinguishers do not use code, code is used in electronics. For the second option and the last option it would not be this because they could be trained in a practice instead of using the real thing.
