Find the nth Taylor polynomial for the function, centered at c.
f(x) = x+cos x, n = 2, C = T
Step 1
If f has nth derivatives at C,
then
f"(c)(x - c)² f "''(c)(x - c)³
Pn(x) = f(c) + f '(c)(x − c) +
+
2!
3!
is called the nth Taylor polynomial for f at c.
Find the following derivatives, which we need to find the polynomial.
f(x) = x4 cos x
f'(x) =
f "(x) =
+ ... +
f "(c)(x - c)"
