Letf(x)=√8 x+1andtakex0 =0.

  1. (i)  Find the third-order Taylor polynomial p3(x) of f(x), based at x0.

  2. (ii)  Use p3(x) to obtain an approximation to √8 1.08.

  3. (iii)  Use the remainder term in the Taylor development to estimate the error in your approxi- mation. Explain why the first 5 digits of this approximation are exact.
