Question: In Exercises use a graphing utility to graph the function. Then graph the linear and quadratic approximations in the same viewing window. Compare the values

In Exercises use a graphing utility to graph the function. Then graph the linear and quadratic approximationsP(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x a) and P(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x

in the same viewing window. Compare the values of ƒ, P1, and P2 and their first derivatives at x = a. How do the approximations change as you move farther away from x = a?

a) + f"(a)(x a)

P(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x a) and P(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x a) + f"(a)(x a)
