Find the Maclaurin polynomials of orders n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4, and then find the nth Maclaurin polynomials for the function in sigma notation.
1/1+x

Σ(-1)^kx^k for k = 0 to n

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth Maclaurin polynomials for f to be

Pn(x) = f(0) + f'(0)x + f''(0)x²/2! + f"'(0)x³/3! +.

The given function is.

f(x) = 1/(1+x)

Differentiate four times with respect to x

f(x) = 1/(1+x)

f'(x) = -1/(1+x)²

f''(x) = 2/(1+x)³

f'''(x) = -6/(1+x)⁴

f(x) = 24/(1+x)^5

To calculate with a coefficient of 1

f(0) = 1

f'(0) = -1

f''(0) = 2

f'''(0) = -6

f(0) = 24

Findinf Pn(x) for n = 0 to 4.

Po(x) = 1

P1(x) = 1 - x

P2(x) = 1 - x + x²

P3(x) = 1 - x+ x² - x³

P4(x) = 1 - x+ x² - x³+ x⁴

Hence, the nth Maclaurin polynomials is

1 - x+ x² - x³+ x⁴ ++(-1)^nx^n

= Σ(-1)^kx^k for k = 0 to n
