As a result of increasing energy costs, the growth rate of the profit of a 4-year old glassblowing company has begun to decline. the company's management, after consulting with energy experts, decides to implement certain energy conservation measures aimed at cutting energy bills. the general manager reports that, according to his calculations, the 3rowth rate of their profit should be on the increase again within 4 years. if the glassblowing company's profit (in hundreds of dollars) t years from now is given by the function p(t) = t^3 - 15c^2 + 35t + 50 (0 t 8) determine whether the general manager's forecast will be accurate.

(a) compute the maclaurin polynomial m2(x) for f(x) = cos x. (b) use the polynomial of part (a) to estimate cos π 12. (c) use a calculator to compute the error made using the estimate from part (b) for the value of cos π 12. remember that the error is defined to be the absolute value of the difference between the true value and the estimate.

Which of the following expressions is equal to 2x^2+8

Write the contrapositive of the conditional statement. determine whether the contrapositive is true or false. if it is false, find a counterexample. a converse statement is formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional. a) a non-converse statement is not formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional. true b) a statement not formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional is a converse statement. false; an inverse statement is not formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional. c) a non-converse statement is formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional. false; an inverse statement is formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional. d) a statement not formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional is not a converse statement. true
