Question #a8879 Calculus Power Series Constructing a Maclaurin Series 1 Answer Anjali G Apr 6, 2017 A formula to memorize is the MacLaurin series of ln(1+x). ln(1+x)=sum_(n=0)^(oo)frac{(-1)^n(x)^(n+1)}{n+1} Therefore: ln(1+4x)=sum_(n=0)^oofrac{(-1)^n(4x)^(n+1)}{n+1} =sum_(n=0)^oofrac{(-1)^n(4)^(n+1)(x)^(n+1)}{n+1} Answer link Related questions How do you find the Maclaurin series of f(x)=(1-x)^-2 ?
