Math Problem Statement

Write down the Maclaurin series of exe^{x}

Solution

The Maclaurin series for exe^x is a Taylor series expansion of exe^x around x=0x = 0. The Maclaurin series is given by:

ex=n=0xnn!e^x = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{x^n}{n!}

This can be written out explicitly as:

ex=1+x1!+x22!+x33!+x44!+e^x = 1 + \frac{x}{1!} + \frac{x^2}{2!} + \frac{x^3}{3!} + \frac{x^4}{4!} + \cdots

Here are some related questions:

  1. What is the general form of a Maclaurin series for any function?
  2. How can the Maclaurin series be used to approximate exe^x for small values of xx?
  3. What is the radius of convergence of the Maclaurin series for exe^x?
  4. How does the Maclaurin series for exe^x relate to its derivatives?
  5. Can you find the Maclaurin series for other exponential functions like exe^{-x}?

Tip: When using the Maclaurin series for practical calculations, truncating the series after a few terms often provides a good approximation, especially for small values of xx.
