Explanation Definition used: The n th degree Taylor polynomial of the function f ( x ) at a is p n ( x ) = f ( a ) + f ′ ( a ) ( x − a ) + f ″ ( a ) 2 ! ( x − a ) 2 + … + f n ( a ) n ! ( x − a ) n = ∑ k = 0 n f k ( a ) k ! ( x − a ) k , provided f has n derivatives at a . Calculation: Obtain the derivatives of f ( x ) = x ln x as, f 1 ( x ) = x ( 1 x ) + ln x ( 1 ) [ ∵ ( f g ) ′ = f ′ g + f g ′ ] f 2 ( x ) = 1 x Further obtained as, f 3 ( x ) = − 1 x − 1 − 1 = − 1 x 2 f 4 ( x ) = 2 x − 2 − 1 = 2 x 3 Proceeding like this, the n th derivative is obtained as, f n ( x ) = ( − 1 ) n ( n − 2 ) ! x n − 1 The value of derivatives f k ( x ) at x = 3 is obtained as follows. f ( 3 ) = ( 3 ) ln ( 3 ) = 3 ln 3 f 1 ( 3 ) = 1 + ln ( 3 ) = 1 + ln 3 f 2 ( 3 ) = 1 ( 3 ) = 1 3 Further obtained as, f 3 ( 3 ) = − 1 ( 3 ) 2 f 4 ( 3 ) = 2 ( 3 ) 3 Proceeding like this, the n th derivative at x = 3 is obtained as, f n ( 3 ) = ( − 1 ) n ( n − 2 ) !

Problem 11 (a) A tank is discharging water through an orifice at a depth of T meter below the surface of the water whose area is A m². The following are the values of a for the corresponding values of A: A 1.257 1.390 x 1.50 1.65 1.520 1.650 1.809 1.962 2.123 2.295 2.462|2.650 1.80 1.95 2.10 2.25 2.40 2.55 2.70 2.85 Using the formula -3.0 (0.018)T = dx. calculate T, the time in seconds for the level of the water to drop from 3.0 m to 1.5 m above the orifice.

- Let n = 7, let p = 23 and let S be the set of least positive residues mod p of the first (p − 1)/2 multiple of n, i.e. n mod p, 2n mod p, ..., p-1 2 -n mod p. Let T be the subset of S consisting of those residues which exceed p/2. Find the set T, and hence compute the Legendre symbol (7|23). 23 32 how come? The first 11 multiples of 7 reduced mod 23 are 7, 14, 21, 5, 12, 19, 3, 10, 17, 1, 8. The set T is the subset of these residues exceeding So T = {12, 14, 17, 19, 21}. By Gauss' lemma (Apostol Theorem 9.6), (7|23) = (−1)|T| = (−1)5 = −1.
