Working with binomial series Use properties of power series, substitution, and factoring to find the first four nonzero terms of the Maclaurin series for the following functions. Give the interval of convergence for the new series (Theorem 11.4 is useful). Use the Maclaurin series


√(1 + x) = 1 + x/2 − x²/8 + x³/16 − ⋯, −1 ≤ x ≤ 1.


√(9 − 9x)

Start with the given Maclaurin series for \( \sqrt{1 + x} \): \[ \sqrt{1 + x} = 1 + \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x^{2}}{8} + \frac{x^{3}}{16} - \cdots, \quad -1 \leq x \leq 1. \]
Rewrite the function \( \sqrt{9 - 9x} \) by factoring out 9 inside the square root: \[ \sqrt{9 - 9x} = \sqrt{9(1 - x)} = 3 \sqrt{1 - x}. \]
Express \( \sqrt{1 - x} \) in terms of the known series for \( \sqrt{1 + x} \) by substituting \( x \) with \( -x \): \[ \sqrt{1 - x} = 1 - \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x^{2}}{8} - \frac{x^{3}}{16} - \cdots. \] (Note the alternating signs come from substituting \( x \) by \( -x \) in the original series.)
Multiply the series for \( \sqrt{1 - x} \) by 3 to get the series for \( \sqrt{9 - 9x} \): \[ 3 \left(1 - \frac{x}{2} - \frac{x^{2}}{8} - \frac{x^{3}}{16} - \cdots \right) = 3 - \frac{3x}{2} - \frac{3x^{2}}{8} - \frac{3x^{3}}{16} - \cdots. \]
Determine the interval of convergence by considering the substitution \( x \to -x \) in the original interval \( -1 \leq x \leq 1 \). Since the original series converges for \( |x| \leq 1 \), the new series converges for \( | -x | \leq 1 \), which simplifies to \( |x| \leq 1 \).

Maclaurin Series and Power Series Expansion

A Maclaurin series is a special case of a Taylor series expanded at x = 0, representing a function as an infinite sum of powers of x. It allows approximation of functions near zero by polynomials. Understanding how to write and manipulate these series is essential for finding terms of the expansion for given functions.

Substitution and Factoring in Power Series

Substitution involves replacing the variable in a known power series with an expression to find a new series. Factoring helps rewrite functions into forms compatible with known expansions. These techniques enable transforming the given function into a form where the Maclaurin series of √(1 + x) can be applied.

Interval of Convergence and Theorem 11.4

The interval of convergence defines where a power series converges to the function it represents. Theorem 11.4 (usually about radius and interval of convergence) helps determine this interval after substitution. Knowing how to find and interpret this interval ensures the series accurately represents the function within a specific domain.
