In Exercises 1 through 3, let xo =
O and calculate P7(x) and R7(x).
1. f(x)=sin x, x in R.
2. f(x) = cos x, x in R.
3. f(x) = In(1+x), x≥0.
4. In Exercises 1, 2, and 3, for |x| 1, calculate a value of n such that P(x)
approximates f(x) to within 10-6.
5. Let (an)neN be a sequence of positive real numbers such that L =
lim (an+1/an) exists in R. If L < 1, show that an → 0. [Hint: Let

7. Let f be continuous on [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b). If lim f'(x)
xia
exists in R, show that f is differentiable at a and f'(a) = lim f'(x). A
similar result holds for b.
x-a
8. In reference to Corollary 5.4, give an example of a uniformly continuous
function on [0, 1] that is differentiable on (0, 1] but whose derivative is not
bounded there.
9. Recall that a fixed point of a function f is a point c such that f(c) = c.
(a) Show that if f is differentiable on R and f'(x)| x if x 1 and hence In(1+x) 0.
12. For 0 л/2. (Thus,
as x л/2 from the left, cos x is never large enough for x+cosx to be
greater than л/2 and cot x is never small enough for x + cot x to be less
than x/2.)

- Pls help ASAParrow_forward2. Sam and Deb have a weekly net income of $1500. They have a pet dog. Their monthly expenses, not related to housing, are $2875. They have savings of $32 000. They are considering two housing options: Option 1: Renting a 2-bedroom condo for $1650 a month, plus utilities averaging $210 a month Option 2: Buying a 2-bedroom condo for a down payment of $24 500, bi-weekly mortgage payments of $1100, and a monthly condo fee of $475 a) Determine the monthly cost of each housing option. Factoring in other expenses not related to housing, which one can Sam and Deb afford? b) Suppose their dog falls ill and they have to pay $85 every week to cover veterinarian and medical expenses. Calculate the additional monthly expenses. How much money would be available for savings if they choose housing option 2?arrow_forwardI bought sparrows at 3 for a penny, turtle doves at 2 for a penny, anddoves at 2 pence each.
