How would you figure out the sign for 1b on the turn in? I'm confused if the coefficient would be positive or negative.
ReplyDeleteWell, the signs alternate, so try to find a pattern as to which terms are positive and which are negative.
DeleteCan someone post a list of topics that will be on the test tomorrow? Thanks!!
ReplyDeletePower & Taylor series (been posted on the board since last week...)
DeleteI know how to find the radius of convergence of a Taylor series, but what does this mean? If this is bounded, what would the result be of using a number outside of this.
ReplyDeleteThe Taylor series does not converge to the function in question outside of the interval of convergence, so using an x-value outside of the interval of convergence in the Taylor series will not provide an accurate approximation of the function's value at that input. Thus, we should NEVER use such an input.
DeleteI am going back and forth about 1d. on the turn-in. I got the answer but i cant decide whether there should be a +C attached to it. Right now I'm deciding on no.
ReplyDeleteYou don't include a +C because it is a definite integral with limits from 0 to x.
DeleteIs the take home instead of a Quiz or in addition to a quiz?

The quiz will be a take home, due Monday. We will spend class tomorrow playing memory and exploring another free response question type.
DeleteWhen can we use a known MacLaurin series? Is it only when the x is changed by having it multiplied (e^x to e^3x) or raised to a power (e^x to e^(x^6)), but not when something is added (e^x to e^(x+4))?
