1 Mathematical Preliminaries
This section reviews some of the results from calculus that are frequently used in this
course. Only definitions and important theorems are provided. However, the readers are
assumed to be familiar with a first course in calculus. Throughout, we use the following
notations:
N = {1, 2, 3, . . .} - the set of natural numbers
Z = {0,
n m1, 2, 3, . . .} - the
o set of integers
Q= | m, n N, n 6= 0 - the set of rational numbers
n
R - the set of real nuumbers
1.1 Function
A function can be thought of as a correspondence from a set X of real numbers to a set
Y of real numbers where a number x X is map to a unique value y Y .

1.2 Examples of Functions
I. Linear Function is a function whose equation can be written in the form
f (x) = mx + b.
Its graph is a line with slope m and y-intercept b. If m = 0, the line is called a
constant function whose graph is a horizontal line passing through (0, b).
R if m 6= 0,
dom f = R, ran f =
{b} if m = 0
II. Quadratic Function is a function whose equation can be written in the form
Its graph is a parabola opening upward if a > 0, or downward if a < 0. The graph
can be describe by its roots x1 and x2 given by
b + b2 4ac b b2 4ac
x1 = and x2 =
2a 2a
and the vertex V (h, k) given by the formula
4ac b2
b b
h= and k=f = .
2a 2a 4a
The domain of f is all real numbers while the range depend on the value of a.

4ac b
, if a > 0,
4a
dom f = R, ran f = 2
4ac b

IV. Rational Function
P (x)
f (x) = , Q(x) 6 0,
Q(x)
where P and Q are polynomials.
V. Trigonometric Functions
y = sin x y = csc x
y = cos x y = sec x
y = tan x y = cot x
y = bx , (b > 0, b 6= 1).
If one or more conditions failed to hold at a, we say that the function f is discontinuous
at a.
Theorem 1.3.2 (Intermediate Value Theorem - IVT). If the function f is conitnuous
on the closed interval [a, b], and if a 6= b, then for any number k between f (a) and f (b),
there exists a number c between a and b such that f (c) = k.
3
Figure 1.3.1: The IVT assures the existence of c (a, b) such that f (c) = k.
Remark 1.3.1. The IVT assures that if f is continuous on [a, b], then f (x) assumes every
value between f (a) and f (b) as x ranges from a to b.
Theorem 1.3.3 (Intermediate-Zero Theorem - IZT). If the function f is continuous
on the closed interval [a, b] and if f (a) and f (b) have opposite signs, then there exists a
number c between a and b such that f (c) = 0
Example 1.3.1. Apply IZT to show that
Since f (x) changes signs from x = 2 to x = 1, it follows from the IZT that f has
a root between 2 and 1. Similarly, f has a root between x = 0 to x = 1, and another
root between x = 1 to x = 2.

(c) f (x) = x2 + 5x 6, [a, b] = [1, 2], k = 4
(d) 25 x2 , [a, b] = [4.5, 3]. k = 3
2. State the Intermediate-Zero Theorem then use the theorem to show that the func-
tion f has the indicated number of zeros between the number a and the number
b.
(a) f (x) = x3 + x + 3, two zeros, a = 2, b = 2
(b) f (x) = x3 6x + 3, three zeros, a = 5, b = 5
(c) f (x) = x4 + 7x3 + x 8, two zeros, a = 10, b = 5
(d) f (x) = 4x4 3x3 + 2x 5, two zeros, a = 3, b = 3
(e) f (x) = 3x4 21x3 + 36x2 + 2x 8, four zeros, a = 5, b = 5

Theorem 1.4.4 (Rolles Theorem). Let f be a function continuous on the bounded in-
terval [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b). If f (a) = f (b) = 0, then there is a number c in
the open interval (a, b) such that f 0 (c) = 0.
Theorem 1.4.5 (Mean Value Theorem). If the function f is continuous on the closed
interval [a, b] and differentiable on the open interval (a, b), then there is a number c
between a and b such that
f (b) f (a)
f 0 (c) = .

1.6 Infinite Series
Let us associate with the sequence
u1 , u2 , u3 , . . .
s1 = u1
s2 = u1 + u2
s3 = u1 + u2 + u3
..
.
sn = u1 + u2 + u3 + + un .
The sequence {sn } obtained in this manner is a sequence of partial sums called infinite
series.
sn = u1 + u2 + u3 + + un
Solution.

of partial sums. If

un = S.

If the limit does not exist, the series is divergent and the series does not have a sum.

Definition 1.7.4. The infinite series an is absolutely convergent if the series |an |
is convergent. A series that is convergent but not absolutely convergent is said to be
conditionally convergent.

Therefore, the test is inconclusive. We need to use other test for this series. Lets
use the alternating series test. We need to check to things,
(i) lim an = 0

(ii) an < an1
n+2
We have an = , so
n(n + 1)

lim an = lim = lim = 0.

Furthermore,

an < an1 <

(n + 2)(n2 n) < n(n + 1)(n + 1)
n3 + n2 2n < n3 + 2n2 + n

The last statement is true for n > 3. Hence the series is a convergent alternating
series.

terms of x can be written as
X f (n) (0) n 0 f 00 (0) 2 f 000 (0) 3 f (4) (0) 4
f (x) = x = f (0) + f (0)x + x + x + x + .

In a more general sense, let f be a function defined by a power series in (x a), that
is
X
f (x) = cn (x a)n
n=0
= c0 + c1 (x a) + c2 (x a)2 + c3 (x a)3 + + cn (x a)n + .
By successive differentiation of the power series, and evaluating each derivative at x = a,
we get the general formula
f (n) (a)
cn = .

The power series of f in (x a) can be written as
X f (n) (a) n 0 f 00 (a) 2 f 000 (a)
f (x) = (x a) = f (a) + f (a)(x a) + (x a) + (x a)3

The series is called the Taylor series of f at a. A special case when a = 0 is called the
Maclaurin series.
Example 1.9.1.
1. Find the Maclaurin series for ex . Use the series to estimate the value of e correct
up to 5 decimal places.
2. Find the Taylor series for sin x at a. Then use this formula to write the Taylor
series for sin x at /4. Use the resulting series to approzimate the value of sin 46
correct up to 5 decimal digits.

Solution.
1. Let f (x) = ex . We compute the successive derivative of f , then evaluate at x = 0.
f (x) = ex f (0) = 1
f 0 (x) = ex f 0 (0) = 1
..
.
f (n) (x) = ex f (n) (0) = 1
We now use this series to estimate the value of e = e1 correct up to 5 decimal digit.
Observe that we stop at the 10th term since the next term, and the succeeding term
thereafter, no longer have any non-zero digit for the first 6 decimal places.
2. Let f (x) = sin x and a = /4. We have
2
f (x) = sin x f (a) = sin a f (/4) = sin(/4) =

f 0 (x) = cos x f 0 (a) = cos a f 0 (/4) = cos(/4) =

f (4) (x) = sin x f (4) (a) = sin a f (4) (/4) = sin(/4) =

f (5) (x) = cos x f (5) (a) = cos a f (5) (/4) = cos(/4) =

Using the formula for the Taylor series of f , we have

We now use this series to find the value of sin 46 . In radian form, 46 = 46/180 =
If we set x = 23/90, then x /4 = /180. We use the approximated
23/90.

Observe that we stop at the 4th term since every term thereafter is smaller than
0.000001, the desired magnitude of accuracy.
Definition 1.9.1. If an infinite series is convergent, then the remainder after k th term,
obtained by subtracting the k th partial sum, is denoted by Rk , and
X
Rk = un sk

In some literature, Rk is called the tail of the series after the k th term.

For a fixed n, the series can be written as
Pn (x) is called the nth degree Taylor polynomial of f while Rn (x) is called the re-
mainder (or tail) of f after the nth term.
Theorem 1.9.2. Let f be a function such that f and all its derivative exist in some
interval containing a. Then the function f is representated by its Taylor series
