The required answers are:

a. The linear approximating polynomial at a = 1: P₁(x) = x - 2

b. The quadratic approximating polynomial at a = 1: P₂(x) = -3 + 3x - x²

c. Appromating the given quantity -1/1.06 for P₁(x) and P₂(x): -3.06 and -7.30 respectively.

Using Taylor polynomial series, the required approximating polynomials are calculated.

The Taylor polynomial series is

Pₙ(x) = ∑ [tex]\frac{f^n(a)}{n!}[/tex](x - a)ⁿ; limits from 0 to n

Where fⁿ(a) is the nth derivation of f(x) at a

The first order(linear) Taylor polynomial series is

P₁(x) = f(a) + [tex]\frac{f'(a)}{1!}[/tex](x - a)¹

The second order(quadratic) Taylor polynomial series is

P₂(x) = f(a) + [tex]\frac{f'(a)}{1!}[/tex](x - a) +  [tex]\frac{f''(a)}{2!}[/tex](x - a)²

The given function is f(x) = -1/x at a = 1

f(a) = f(1) = -1

f'(x) = -(-1/x²) = 1/x²; f'(a) = f'(1) = 1

f''(x) = -2/x³; f''(a) = f''(1) = -2

a. Linear approximating polynomial:

From the Taylor series, we have

P₁(x) = f(a) + [tex]\frac{f'(a)}{1!}[/tex](x - a)¹

On substituting,

P₁(x) = -1 + (1/1!)(x - 1)¹

       = -1 + (x - 1)

       = x - 2

b. Quadratic approximating polynomial:

From the Taylor series, we have

P₂(x) = f(a) + [tex]\frac{f'(a)}{1!}[/tex](x - a) +  [tex]\frac{f''(a)}{2!}[/tex](x - a)²

On substituting,

P₂(x) = f(1) + (1/1!)(x - 1) +  (-2/2!)(x - 1)²

        = -1 + (x - 1) - (x - 1)²

        = -1 + x - 1 - (x² - 2x + 1)

        = x - 2 - x² + 2x - 1

        = -3 + 3x - x²

c. Approximating the given quantity -1/1.06:

Substituting x = -1.06 in P₁(x) and P₂(x),

P₁(x) = x - 2

⇒ P₁(-1.06) = (-1.06) - 2 = -3.06

P₂(x) = -3 + 3x - x²

⇒ P₂(-1.06) = -3 + 3(-1.06) - (-1.06)² = -7.30

Therefore, the approximating polynomials are calculated by using Taylor polynomial series.

Answer:

  385.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between speed, distance, and time is ...

  distance = speed × time

The speed is given in miles per hour, but the time is given in seconds and the distance is wanted in feet. This suggests a conversion of speed to feet per second is appropriate.

  [tex]\dfrac{52.7\text{ mi}}{\text{h}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ h}}{3600\text{ s}}\times\dfrac{5280\text{ ft}}{1\text{ mi}}=\dfrac{52.7\cdot22\text{ ft}}{15\text{ s}}=77.29\overline{3}\text{ ft/s}[/tex]

The distance traveled is the product of this speed and the time period.

  [tex]\dfrac{77.29\overline{3}\text{ ft}}{1\text{ s}}\times4.99\text{ s}=385.6937\overline{3}\text{ ft}\approx\boxed{385.7\text{ ft}}[/tex]

Answer:

5×3=15

15×3=45

therefore the largest value is 45

The largest possible value in the set is 92. The set has an equal mean and median. So, the set is {29, 29, 50, 50, 92}.

Mean:

For a set of data, the average of all the data values is said to be its mean.

Median:

When the set is arranged in ascending order, the middle term is said to be its median (if there are an odd number of data values in the set) or the average value of the two middle terms is the median (if there are an even number of data values in the set).

It is given that,

there are 5 numbers in the set

Mean = 50 and Median = Mean

So, Median = 50

Since there are 5 numbers in the set (odd number), the median is the third(middle) number.

Consider the first or smallest number as 's'.

Then the largest number = 3s + 5

By minimizing each term we get,

first term = s

second term = s

third term = 50

fourth term = 50

fifth term = 3s+5

If the mean is 50, then the sum of all the terms = 50 × 5 = 250

So,

s + s + 50 + 50 + 3s + 5 = 250

⇒ 5s + 105 = 250

⇒ 5s = 145

∴ s = 29

Thus, the smallest number is 29

Then, the largest number = 3s + 5 = 3 × 29 + 5 = 92

Therefore, the largest number in the given set is 92.

Based on the calculations, the maximum price per share that Schultz should pay for Arras is approximately equal to $53.00.

First of all, we would determine the cash flows for the company until the growth rate changes at a constant perpetual rate:

Year 1: $8,000,000(1 + 0.09) = $8,720,000.

Year 2: $8,720,000(1 + 0.09) = $9,504,800.

Year 3: $9,504,800(1 + 0.09) = $10,360,232.

Year 4: $10,360,232(1 + 0.09) = $11,292,652.88.

Year 5: $11,292,652.88(1 + 0.09) = $12,308,991.6392.

Year 6: $12,308,991.6392(1 + 0.06) = $13,047,5311.137552.

Next, we would calculate the terminal value in Year 5:

TV₅ = CF₆/(RWACC - g)

TV₅ = CF₆/(0.11 - 0.06)

TV₅ = $12,308,991.6392/0.05

TV₅ = $246,179,832.784.

By using Arras' cost of capital, we would determine its present value:

V₀ = $8,720,000/(1 + 0.11) + $9,504,800/(1 + 0.11)² + $10,360,232/(1 + 0.11)³+ $11,292,652.88/(1 + 0.11)⁴+ ($12,308,991.6392 + $246,179,832.784)/(1 + 0.11)⁵.

V₀ = $8,720,000/(1.11) + $9,504,800/(1.11)² + $10,360,232/(1.11)³+ $11,292,652.88/(1.11)⁴+ ($12,308,991.6392 + $246,179,832.784)/(1.11)⁵.

V₀ = 7,855,855.8559 + 7,714,308.9035 + 7,575,312.3467 + 7,438,820.2323 + 153,400,536.1422.

V₀ = $183,984,855.4806.

For the market value of the equity, we have:

S = 183,984,855.4806 - 25,000,000

S = $158,984,855.4806.

Now, we can find the maximum price per share:

Maximum price per share = 158,984,855.4806/3,000,000

Maximum price per share = $52.9949 ≈ $53.00.

Simon is correct because even though the input values are opposite in the reflected function, any real number can be an input for an exponential growth function.

Verification of Choice

Let us consider the following exponential growth function.

y = Aeˣ ...........................(1)

This equation changes when it is reflected across the y axis and becomes,

y = Ae⁻ˣ ...........................(2)

Here, the set of all x values for which y is defined is known as the domain of this exponential growth function.

Therefore, the domain of exponential growth function 1 is the set of all real numbers, given by, x ∈ [-∞,∞]

The domain of function 2, which is a reflection of function 1, will also consist entirely of real numbers and will be given by x ∈ [-∞,∞ ]

Therefore, between Alissa and himself, Simon is right when he asserts that even if an exponential growth function is reflected across the y-axis, the domain will still consist only of real values.

the height of the tree is approximately 15.2 meters.

To find the height of the tree, we can set up a proportion between Andrew's height and the height of the tree based on their respective shadow lengths.

Let's denote the height of the tree as "h" meters.

The proportion between the height and shadow lengths can be written as:

h / 28.0 = 1.9 / 3.5

Now, we can solve for "h":

h = (1.9 / 3.5) * 28.0

h ≈ 15.2 meters

V(t)=2000(1.02)^t function that gives the total value in dollars of the investment t years from now given that Shota invests $2000 in a certificate of deposit that earns 2 percent interest each year. This can be obtained by using the formula of compound interest formula.

Equation of compound interest compounded yearly,

A = P(1 + R/100)^t

where,

A = amount

P = principal amount

R = rate

t = number of years

Given that P = $2000, R = 2%, number of years = t,

V(t) = 2000(1+2/100)^t

V(t) = 2000(1+0.02)^t

V(t) = 2000(1.02)^t

Answer:

y = (3/10)x + 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of an equation in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. First, we need to rearrange the given equation to determine the slope of the original line.

10x + 3y = 5                                <----- Original equation

3y = -10x + 5                               <----- Subtract 10x from both sides

y = (-10/3)x + 5                            <----- Divide both sides by 3

Now, we can tell that the slope of the original line is m = -10/3. The perpendicular line should have an opposite-signed, reciprocal slope to that of the original. Therefore, the new slope is m = 3/10.

We can find the value of "b" by plugging the new slope and values from the Point (3, 1) into slope-intercept form.

m = 3/10

x = 3

y = 1

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

1 = (3/10)(3) + b                           <----- Insert values

1 = 9/10 + b                                 <----- Multiply 3/10 and 3

10/10 = 9/10 + b                          <----- Create common denominators

1/10 = b                                      <----- Subtract 9/10 from both sides

Now that we know the values for "m" and "b", we can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (3/10)x + 1/10

Answer: A, B

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle's sides have a special property that the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. This is also known as the Pythagorean Theorem.

Let's check if this theorem holds true for each triangle.

[tex]11^2+13^2=(\sqrt{290})^2\\ 121 + 169=290\\ 290 = 290[/tex]

The Pythagorean Theorem holds true, so this is a right triangle.

[tex]7^2+24^2=25^2\\ 49 + 576 = 625\\ 625=625[/tex]

The Pythagorean Theorem holds true, so this is a right triangle.

[tex]2^2+5^2=7^2\\ 4+25=49\\ 29 = 49[/tex]

This is a false statement, which doesn't make this triangle a right triangle. We could have use the triangle inequality theorem to prove that this isn't a triangle at all, and therefore not a right triangle, but I encourage you to learn about it and try it yourself.

The best description on measurement of the center of this data is; C. The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median.

If we make the box and whisker plot of the Rome and New York data, we will see that there will clearly be an outlier in the New York data.

Thus;

Due to the fact that the data set for New York has an outlier and the mean is skewed, it means that we would use the median.

Finally, we see that the Rome data set is symmetrical because it has no outlier,  and as such we can use the mean.
