1. Write a general term for the sequence, if one exists, assuming a domain starting with n = 1.
3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48....
2. compute the sums indicated.
i=1∑5 (i+1)/(i2+i)
3. find the sum if the series converges.
n=0∑∞ 2n/(n+2)
4. Find the Taylor polynomial of degree n approximating the given function near x = 0. Using a graphing utility, sketch the given function and the Taylor approximation on the same coordinate system.
y = 1/√1+x, n=3
y= x ln(x+1), n=3
5. find the Taylor polynomial of degree n near x = a for the given n and a.
y = sinx, a= Π, n=5
y = x1/3, a= 1, n=4
5. find the Taylor series polynomial of degree at least four which is a solution of the boundary value problem.
f'(x)= (1+xy), f(0)=1.
