f(0) = 1
f ( x ) = 5 x 4 + 8 x + 3
f'(0) = 3
f ( x ) = 20 x 3 + 8
f'''(0) = 8
f 3 ( x ) = 60 x 2
f 3 ( 0 ) = 0
f 4 ( x ) = 120 x , f 4 ( 0 ) = 0
f 5 ( x ) = 120 , f 5 ( 0 ) = 0
so we have:
f ( x ) = 1 + 3 1 ! x + 8 2 ! x 2 + 0 3 ! x 3 + 0 4 ! x 0 + 120 5 ! x 5 = 1 + 3 x + 4 x 2 + x 5
since we only consider n=4, we have:
f ( x ) = 1 + 3 x + 4 x 2
