Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
For f(x)=ex+41e−x, we have f′(x)=ex−41e−x and f′′(x)=f(x). Thus f(0)=5/4, f′(0)=3/4 and f′′(0)=5/4. Using f(x)=f(0)+f′(0)x+21f′′(0)x2+O(x3), the expansion is 45+43x+85x2+O(x3).
