Find the terms through degree four of the maclaurin series for f(x) = sin(x) 1−x.

Sagot :

The terms through degree four of the Maclaurin series is [tex]f(x)=x+x^{2} +\frac{5x^{3} }{6} +\frac{5x^{4} }{6} +.....[/tex].

In this question,

The function is f(x) = [tex]\frac{sin(x)}{1-x}[/tex]

The general form of Maclaurin series is

[tex]\sum \limits^\infty_{k:0} \frac{f^{k}(0) }{k!}(x-0)^{k} = f(0)+\frac{f'(0)}{1!}x+\frac{f''(0)}{2!}x^{2} +\frac{f'''(0)}{3!}x^{3}+......[/tex]

To find the Maclaurin series, let us split the terms as

[tex]f(x)=sin(x)(\frac{1}{1-x} )[/tex] ------- (1)

Now, consider f(x) =  sin(x)

Then, the derivatives of f(x) with respect to x, we get

f'(x) = cos(x), f'(0) = 1

f''(x) = -sin(x), f'(0) = 0

f'''(x) = -cos(x), f'(0) = -1

[tex]f^{iv}(x)[/tex] = cos(x), f'(0) = 0

Maclaurin series for sin(x) becomes,

[tex]f(x) = 0 +\frac{1}{1!}x +0+(-\frac{1}{3!} )x^{3} +....[/tex]

⇒ [tex]f(x)=x-\frac{x^{3} }{3!} +\frac{x^{5} }{5!}+.....[/tex]

Now, consider [tex]f(x) = (1-x)^{-1}[/tex]

Then, the derivatives of f(x) with respect to x, we get

[tex]f'(x) = (1-x)^{-2}, f'(0) = 1[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = 2(1-x)^{-3}, f''(0) = 2[/tex]

[tex]f'''(x) = 6(1-x)^{-4}, f'''(0) = 6[/tex]

[tex]f^{iv} (x) = 24(1-x)^{-5}, f^{iv}(0) = 24[/tex]

Maclaurin series for (1-x)^-1 becomes,

[tex]f(x) = 1 +\frac{1}{1!}x +\frac{2}{2!}x^{2} +(\frac{6}{3!} )x^{3} +....[/tex]

⇒ [tex]f(x)=1+x+x^{2} +x^{3} +......[/tex]

Thus the Maclaurin series for [tex]f(x)=sin(x)(\frac{1}{1-x} )[/tex] is

⇒ [tex]f(x)=(x-\frac{x^{3} }{3!} +\frac{x^{5} }{5!}+..... )(1+x+x^{2} +x^{3} +......)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]f(x)=x+x^{2} +x^{3} - \frac{x^{3} }{6} +x^{4}-\frac{x^{4} }{6} +.....[/tex]

⇒ [tex]f(x)=x+x^{2} +\frac{5x^{3} }{6} +\frac{5x^{4} }{6} +.....[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the terms through degree four of the Maclaurin series is [tex]f(x)=x+x^{2} +\frac{5x^{3} }{6} +\frac{5x^{4} }{6} +.....[/tex].
