if i have e^(y-b) can i write that as e^y+e^-c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, but you can write it as \[\Large \frac{e^{y}}{e^{b}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me linearze this in a and b: y=c+ln((x/a)+(b/x)+5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried taking exp of both sides but i get stuck

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hmm not sure what you mean by linearize do you mean find a linear approximation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean just, make it so that a and b are both linear, if that makes any sense

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

not really, sry I'm thinking that you're trying to find a linear approximation at a certain point, but I'm not sure

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

eg: find a taylor polynomial (of degree 1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well one example that we had was this|dw:1352666225580:dw|
