Find the Maclaurin series for $e^x$ and prove that it represents $e^x$ for all x. Define initial value problem. Solve that initial value problem of $y' + 5y = 1$, $y(0) = 2$. Find the volume of a sphere of radius r. [4+4+2]
(a) Maclaurin Series for $e^x$ and Proof The Maclaurin series of a function is: $$f(x) = \sum{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!},x^n$$ For $f(x) = e^x$, all derivatives equal $e^x$: $$f^{(n)}(x) = e^x \implies f^{(n)}(0) = 1 \quad \text{for all } n$$ Therefore: $$\boxed{e^x = \sum{n=0}^{\infty}...
