    Linear Programming-Transportation Simplex

    I don't know if I've posted this in the right place but I thought I'd give it a go anyway. Homework Statement See Attatchment Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution So for part a) max z:150X11+350X12+300X13+100X21+500X22+400X23 s.t. X11+X12+X13≤40...

    Use Taylor's theorem to show a function is differentiable at x=0

    Homework Statement Use Taylor's theorem to estimate |(ex)-x-1| for 0≤x≤1. Thus prove that if a>(1/2) then: f(x)=(1-|x|a)*(ex)a is differentiable at x=0 Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution So |(ex)-x-1|=(x^2)/2+(x^3)/6+(x^4)/24... But I don't see how this helps, I...

    Limit of Polynomial over Exponential Equals Zero

    Sorry just realized the bottom part of the limit is wrong as after you've differentiated once your going to have to use the product rule after that. Could you just use induction on the degree m then, and then use L'hopitals rule to prove it for n+1?

    Limit of Polynomial over Exponential Equals Zero

    Oh ok, didn't think of using l'Hopitals rule. So can you just say: Lim_{y->Inf} Q(y)/ey2 <=> lim_{y->inf} Q(m)(y)/((2y)m).ey2) <=> Lim_{y->inf} a(m).m!/((2y)m).ey2)=0 Is that right?

    Limit of Polynomial over Exponential Equals Zero

    Homework Statement Q(y)=a0+a1y+...+amy^m is a polynomial of degree m and I need to show that: Lim{y->Inf} Q(y)/ey2=0 Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution It seems obvious but I can't seem to be able to prove it, and don't really know where to start, any help...
