4.(10 pts.)(a) Let f (x) =
x. What is the maximum possible error, according to Taylor’s theorem, committed by using the third-degree Taylor polynomial P 3 (x) based at x 0 = 1 to estimate f (x) for 12 ≤ x ≤ 32?
(10 pts.)(b) Let
h(x) =
kx^3 , if 0 ≤ x ≤ 2; 0 , elsewhere.
Here, k is a constant. Determine the value(s) of k for which h(x) is a probability density function. Justify your answer.
