Homework Statement
expand
f(x) = x^4 - 3x^3 + 9x^2 +22x +6 in powers of (x-2)
Hence evaluate integral,
(limits 2.2 - 2) f(x) dx
Homework Equations
Taylor expansion for the first part
integral f(x) dx with limits 2.2-2
The Attempt at a Solution
Expansion of the function I've done comes to
78 +46(x-2) +18(x-2)^2 +9/2(x-2)^3 +3/4(x-2)^4
But then I don't know how the x-2 relates to the limits 2.2 - 2,
do I integrate the original integral or the expanded one? And then how do I use the integral to get the exact value
any help appreciated
