Generated Graph
Solution by Steps
step 2
This series is recognized as the Taylor series expansion of the cosine function, cos(x)\cos(x), about 0
step 3
The general form of the Taylor series for cos(x)\cos(x) is n=0(1)nx2n(2n)!\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n} x^{2n}}{(2n)!}
step 4
Therefore, the function for which the given series is the Taylor series about 0 is cos(x)\cos(x)
D
Key Concept
Taylor Series of Cosine Function
Explanation
The Taylor series of cos(x)\cos(x) about 0 is n=0(1)nx2n(2n)!\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^{n} x^{2n}}{(2n)!}, which matches the given series.
