Though 1 quick question, when: (f^(5))(0) = e^0 = 1 How does that become 5^5?
5^5 e^0 = 5^5
So is f(n) referring to the previous derivative? not just the original?
each derivative of the original function is centered at 0 in order to determine the constants ofthe power series
Is the Maclauren series any different?
\begin{array} e^{5x}\\ 5e^{5x}\\ 5*5e^{5x}\\ 5*5*5e^{5x}\\ etc \end{array}
mac and taylor are the same; only one of them uses 0 and the other uses any number
\[e^{5x}=\frac{f^0(0)}{0!}x^0+\frac{f^1(0)}{1!}x^1+\frac{f^2(0)}{2!}x^2+...\]
the other one is just like it except for the "0" \[e^{5x}=\frac{f^0(a)}{0!}(x-a)^0+\frac{f^1(a)}{1!}(x-a)^1+\frac{f^2(a)}{2!}(x-a)^2+...\]
Ahh, I see
I'm just so nervous over this exam! I'm forgetting this stuff as I'm learning it
And the only difference between a Taylor and a Maclauren is?
