Please give only hints, no full solutions :)
Use series to approximate the definite integral to within the indicated accuracy:
\int_0^{0.1} \frac{dx}{\sqrt{1 + x^3}}, |\text{error}| < 10^{-8}
Taylor series and Maclaurin series
This doesn't seem to match or bear resemblance to any of the "famous" ones which can easily be expressed with series e^x, \sin{x}, \cos{x}, and I tried taking seven derivatives, but this is awfully annoying. Are there any other methods?
Thanks.
