Prove the function is analytic on R and find its Maclaurin expansion.

(a) e[tex]^{x}[/tex]cosx


Well, I did some work. I can show that

e[tex]^{x}[/tex]=[tex]\sum[/tex]x[tex]^{k}[/tex]/k!

cosx=[tex]\sum[/tex]((-1)[tex]^{k}[/tex]x[tex]^{2k}[/tex])/(2k)!

are analytic and have the above Maclaurin expression.

My problem is multiplying these two expressions together, finding the Maclaurin
expression and proving it is analytic.

I would be grateful for all your help. I think the hardest part will be showing how
it is analytic.

Thanks,

I know the Maclaurin Series now :-)

e[tex]^{x}[/tex]cos x = [tex]\sum[/tex][tex]\sum[/tex][(-1)[tex]^{j}[/tex]]/((2j)!(k-2j)1))

Whew! That was a lot of work for me, but I got it. Thanks. The result is correct. So how do I show this is analytic? I'm stuck, please, please help me.

Thanks,
