(i) Next consider the natural logarithm of x: f(x) = In x. Its first derivative is f'(x) = 1/x,
and hence
f)>o for
x>0. In fact, Inx itself is singular t
x=0; In x - o for x>0. Therefore we cannot write down a series expansion about zero
for the logarithm. However, we ca expand the logarithm about some point x> 0, e.g, about
x=1. Proceeding as in Eq. (12) get

x=(t-)-5a-1)+-1°-.+(-1*"-1"t... .(17)
One can show that this series represents the logarithm
only in the semi-open interval (0,2].
To see that the series converges for x 2 we note that we have an

alternating series with general
term tending to zero for n 0 . Therefore we the
get following series for the natural logarithm
of 2:

In2=1-+-++..+(-1)"1+ .

Note however that this series is of no


practical value for the evaluation of the log of 2 because of
its very slow convergence. For values
of x > 2 one can show that the series (17) diverges.

Note 2: (c) may be an extreme value of f(x), even when f'(c) does not exist.

Rolle's Theorem:

at least one real number c

such thatf(¢)=0.
The given function f(x) =
flx)=-x, when -1 <xs0

Here, (1) f(x) is continuous in -1sxs1

Now, Lf(0) = lim


X>0-

So,f'(x) does not exist at x =0 which lies between (-1, 1)

Now, f(x)=0 3 -18x +24 =0
(x-2)x-4) =0 x=2,4
Therefore, the stationary points are x = 2,4.
Again, f"(x)=6x-18

Both the functions are continuous and differentiable [x,x + h].
Moreover, &'(x) is not equal to zero in (x,x+h].
