taylor e^{-(x^2)/2}

taylor

e^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}}

1 - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} + \frac{1}{8} x^{4} - \frac{1}{48} x^{6} + \frac{1}{384} x^{8} + \dots

Solution steps

Apply the Taylor Formula

= 1 + \frac{\frac{d}{d x} ( e ^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}} ) ( 0 )}{1 !} x + \frac{\frac{d ^{2}}{d x ^{2}} ( e ^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}} ) ( 0 )}{2 !} x^{2} + \frac{\frac{d ^{3}}{d x ^{3}} ( e ^{- \frac{x ^{2}}{2}} ) ( 0 )}{3 !} x^{3} + \dots

Evaluate Derivatives

= 1 + \frac{0}{1 !} x + \frac{- 1}{2 !} x^{2} + \frac{0}{3 !} x^{3} + \frac{3}{4 !} x^{4} + \frac{0}{5 !} x^{5} + \frac{- 15}{6 !} x^{6} + \frac{0}{7 !} x^{7} + \frac{105}{8 !} x^{8} + \dots

Refine

= 1 - \frac{1}{2} x^{2} + \frac{1}{8} x^{4} - \frac{1}{48} x^{6} + \frac{1}{384} x^{8} + \dots
