Homework Statement
Use zero- through third-order Taylor series expansion
f(x) = 6x3 − 3x2 + 4x + 5
Using x0=1 and h =1.
Once I found that the Taylor Series value is 49. I want to be able to check the value. On the board our teacher plugged in a value into the equation to show that the answer is 49. But I do not know how they were able to do that.
Homework Equations
Taylor Series
The Attempt at a Solution
zero: 12
first: 12 + 16 = 28
second: 12 + 16 + 15 = 43
third: 12 + 16 + 16 + 6 = 49
I am able to find the value of 49 using Taylor Series so that isn't the problem here. I want to be able to find the actual value of 49 without having to do the Taylor Series that way I can make sure what the correct ending value should be.
