The Taylor series calculator uses partial sums of an infinite number of terms to approximate the given values. The tool finds the Taylor series of one variable functions around the center of the function.
So, get to know the series that come from the given value derivatives at a single point.
“Taylor series is an infinite sum given values that are demonstrated as the function derivative at a single point”.
Around the given points, the Taylor series calculator calculates the series expansion of given functions. To determine this for a polynomial with an infinite number of terms. Look at the formula below:
$$ f (x) = \sum\limits_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(k)}(a)}{k!}(x - a)^{k} $$
Where:
Evaluate the Taylor series of (x^5)^(1/3) up to order n = 5 and a = 1
Given Data:
3√x^5
n = 5
a = 1
As we already know the Maclaurin equation to find the Taylor series of polynomials is:
$$ f (x) = \sum\limits_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(k)}(a)}{k!}(x - a)^{k} $$
$$ f (x) ≈ P(x) = \sum\limits_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(k)}(a)}{k!}(x - a)^{k} = \sum\limits_{k=0}^{4} \frac{f^{(k)}(a)}{k!}(x - a)^{k} $$
So, what we need to do to get the required polynomial is to evaluate the derivatives, calculate them at a given point, and substitute the results into the formula.
$$ f^{(0)}(x) = f(x)= \sqrt[3]{x^{5}} $$
Calculate the point: $$ f(1) = 1 $$
$$ f^{(1)}(x) = \left(f^{(0)}(x)\right)^{'}= \left(\sqrt[3]{x^{5}}\right)^{'} = \frac{5 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{3 x} $$
Calculate the 1 derivative at the given point:
$$ \left(f(1)\right)^{'} = \frac{5}{3} $$
Find the 2 derivatives:
$$ f^{(2)}(x) = \left(f^{(1)}(x)\right)^{'}= \left(\frac{5 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{3 x}\right)^{'} = \frac{10 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{9 x^{2}} $$
Calculate the 2 derivative at the given point:
$$ \left(f(1)\right)^{''} = \frac{10}{9} $$
Find the 3 derivatives:
$$ f^{(3)}(x) = \left(f^{(2)}(x)\right)^{'}= \left(\frac{10 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{9 x^{2}}\right)^{'} = - \frac{10 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{27 x^{3}} $$
Now, calculate the 3 derivative at the given point:
$$ \left(f(1)\right)^{'''} = - \frac{10}{27} $$
Find the 4 derivatives:
$$ f^{(4)}(x) = \left(f^{(3)}(x)\right)^{'}= \left(- \frac{10 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{27 x^{3}}\right)^{'} = \frac{40 \sqrt[3]{x^{5}}}{81 x^{4}} $$
Calculate the 4 derivative at the given point:
$$ \left(f(1)\right)^{''''} = \frac{40}{81} $$
Now use the calculated value to obtain the polynomial:
$$ f(x) ≈ \frac{1}{0!}(x- (1))^{0} + \frac{\frac{5}{3}}{1!}(x- (1))^{1} + \frac{\frac{10}{9}}{2!}(x- (1))^{2} + \frac{- \frac{10}{27}}{3!}(x- (1))^{3} + \frac{\frac{40}{81}}{4!}(x- (1))^{4} $$
After simplification, we finally get the final answer:
$$ f(x)≈P(x)=1+\frac{5 x}{3} - \frac{5}{3}+\frac{5 \left(x - 1\right)^{2}}{9}- \frac{5 \left(x - 1\right)^{3}}{81}+\frac{5 \left(x - 1\right)^{4}}{243} $$
