Answer:

(x − π)⁷ / 5040

(x − 1)³ / 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor series expansion of a function is:

f(x) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° f⁽ⁿ⁾(x₀) / n! (x − x₀)ⁿ

where f⁽ⁿ⁾(x₀) is the nth derivative evaluated at x₀.

For the first problem, f(x) = sin x and x₀ = π.  We want the seventh degree term, so n = 7.

The seventh degree term is therefore: f⁽⁷⁾(π) / 7! (x − π)⁷

Find the seventh derivative of sin x:

f(x) = sin x

f⁽¹⁾(x) = cos x

f⁽²⁾(x) = -sin x

f⁽³⁾(x) = -cos x

f⁽⁴⁾(x) = sin x

f⁽⁵⁾(x) = cos x

f⁽⁶⁾(x) = -sin x

f⁽⁷⁾(x) = -cos x

Evaluated at π, f⁽⁷⁾(x) = 1.  So the seventh degree term is (x − π)⁷ / 5040.

For the second problem, f(x) = √x and x₀ = 1.  We want the third degree term,  so n = 3.

The third degree term is therefore: f⁽³⁾(1) / 3! (x − 1)³

Find the third derivative of √x:

f(x) = √x

f⁽¹⁾(x) = ½ x^-½

f⁽²⁾(x) = -¼ x^-³/₂

f⁽³⁾(x) = ⅜ x^-⁵/₂

Evaluated at 1, f⁽³⁾(x) = ⅜.  So the third degree term is (x − 1)³ / 16.

dinners frequently add a 15% tip when charging a meal to a credit card. what is the price of the meal without the tip amount charged is $18.40? how much was the tip?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

'x' the price of the meal

15% of x or 0.15x is the tip

x + 0.15x = 20.70

1.15x = 20.70 divide both sides by 1.15

x = 20.70/1.15

x = $18

0.15*18 = $2.70

The price of the meal without the tip is $18.

The tip was $2.70.

What is the probability that a random sample of 17 pregnancies has a mean gestation period within 9 days of the mean?( length of pregnancies of a certain animal are approximately normally distributed with mean of 295 days and standard deviation of 15 days)​

Answers

Answer:

0.9864

Step-by-step explanation:

The average sample mean is 295, and the standard deviation is:

σ = 15 / √17

σ = 3.64

The z-scores are:

z = (x − μ) / σ

z₁ = (-9) / 3.64

z₁ = -2.47

z₂ = (9) / 3.64

z₂ = 2.47

So the probability is:

P(-2.47 < Z < 2.47) = P(Z < 2.47) − P(Z < -2.47)

P(-2.47 < Z < 2.47) = 0.9932 − 0.0068

P(-2.47 < Z < 2.47) = 0.9864

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.9864 = 98.64% probability that a random sample of 17 pregnancies has a mean gestation period within 9 days of the mean.

In a normal distribution with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.For a sample of size n, by the Central Limit Theorem, the standard deviation is given by [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

Mean of 295 days, thus [tex]\mu = 295[/tex].Standard deviation of 15 days, thus [tex]\sigma = 15[/tex].Sample of 17 pregnancies, thus [tex]n = 17, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{17}}[/tex].

Gestation period within 9 days of the mean is between 286 and 304 days, and the probability is the p-value of Z when X = 304 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 286.

X = 304:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{304 - 295}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{17}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.47[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.47[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9932

X = 286:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{286 - 295}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{17}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.47[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.47[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0068

0.9932 - 0.0068 = 0.9864.

0.9864 = 98.64% probability that a random sample of 17 pregnancies has a mean gestation period within 9 days of the mean.

Answers

Given:

A sofa regularly sells for $710.

The sale price is $553.80.

To find:

The percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]Decrease\%=\dfrac{\text{Regular price - Sale price}}{\text{Regular price}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]Decrease\%=\dfrac{710-553.80}{710}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]Decrease\%=\dfrac{156.2}{710}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]Decrease\%=0.22 \times 100[/tex]

[tex]Decrease\%=22\%[/tex]

Therefore, the percent decrease of the sale price from the regular price is 22%.
