Don't know anything about calculus, sorry mate....
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry! Didn't know you didn't want me to comment!

Okay, so we have the taylor series at \(0\).

\[
f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}f^{(n)}(0)\frac{x^n}{n!}
\]

Also known as the Maclaurin series.

We have \(f^{n}(0) = 10^{-n}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[
f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}f^{(n)}(0)\frac{x^n}{n!} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{10^n}\frac{x^n}{n!} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(x/10)^n}{n!}
\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let \(y=x/10\): \[
\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(x/10)^n}{n!} =\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{y^n}{n!} = e^y=e^{x/10}
\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure enough: \[
f(0) = e^{0/10}=e^0=1
\]And \[
f'(0) = \frac{1}{10}e^{x/10}\Bigg|^{x=0} = \frac 1{10} = 0.1
\]
