Taylor series and polynomials

This weekend, please work on the 8.7 HW p. 683 #1-13 odds, 15, 17, 21, 25ab, 29, 31, 53 AND on the sample test #9 problems.  Our focus on Monday will be on the sample test problems with groups sharing solutions:

1 - #1,18
2 - #2,17
3 - #3,8,16
4 - #4,15
5 - #5,14
6 - #6,12,13
7 - #7,11
8 - #9,10

A nice overview of Taylor series and polynomials can be found in videos #54 (skip slides 6-9) and #55 (slides 5, 6, 11 have (interesting) theory that AP does not require) on the UH site: http://online.math.uh.edu/HoustonACT/videocalculus/index.html. 
You'll need Quicktime to view these and they do not stream, so they take a while to load.
