Question: m a x 0 x 1 . 2 | f ( 5 ) ( x ) | = 8 . 4 , m a x

max0x1.2|f(5)(x)|=8.4,max0x1.2|f(6)(x)|=58.8,max0x1.2|f(7)(x)|=411.8
Let P(x) be the fifth-degree Taylor polynomial for a function f about x=0. Information about the maximum of the absolute value of selected derivatives of f over the interval 0x1.2 is given in the table above. Of the following, which is the smallest value of k for which the Lagrange error bound guarantees that |f(1.2)-P(1.2)|k?
0.174
0.244
0.293
m a x 0 x 1 . 2 | f ( 5 ) ( x ) | = 8 . 4 , m a x
