In calculus, Taylor's theorem gives an approximation of a -times differentiable function around a given point by a polynomial of degree , called the -th-order Taylor polynomial. For a smooth …

Suppose f is differentiable on an open interval I and f′ is differentiable at a ∈ I. We call the derivative of f′ at a the second derivative of f at a, which we denote f′′(a). By continued …

Taylor’s Theorem. Suppose $f$ has $n+1$ continuous derivatives on an open interval containing $a$. Then for each $x$ in the interval, \[f(x) = \left[\sum_{k=0}^n \frac{f^{(k)}(a)}{k!} (x …

Taylor’s theorem Theorem 1. Let f be a function having n+1 continuous derivatives on an interval I. Let a ∈ I, x ∈ I. Then (∗n) f(x) = f(a)+ f′(a) 1! (x−a)+···+ f(n)(a) n! (x−a)n +Rn(x,a) where (∗∗n) …

Taylor’s Theorem. Suppose that f is n+1 times differentiable and that f(n+1) is continuous. Let a be a point in the domain of f. Then lim x→a f(x) −P n(x) (x−a)n = 0. (♥) §4 In order to use …

Taylor’s theorem states that the di erence between P n (x) and f(x) at some point x (other than c) is governed by the distance from x to c and by the (n + 1) st derivative of f.

n(x) is called Taylor’s polynomial of degree n (with respect to f and x 0). The following theorem, called Taylor’s Theorem, provides an estimate for the error function E n(x) = f(x) P n(x) for a …
