the approximate errors, you need to add atleast 2

figure;
plot(terms,VB,'-k.','MarkerSize',20); title('Oxygen Conc. at t=.05 seconds vs. term
Approximate Relative Error 2 terms
erra1 =
1.5821

Approximate Relative Error 3 terms

erra2 =
0.3406
Approximate Relative Error 4 terms
erra3 =
0.1243
According to the graph and the approximate errors, you need to add atleast 2 terms
