It is not easy to know everything, and we may be unable to say whether our
formula for E is valid when k = 1. Show that if it is, then

5 While this may not be an appropriate time to enter into details of proofs,
the function f for which f(0) = 0 and
f(x) = e u== (x 0)
has continuous derivatives of all orders over the whole infinite interval - m <
x < oo. Moreover, f«>(0) = 0 for each k = 1, 2, 3,. In this case the
Taylor formula (12.53) with a = 0 becomes
f(x) = 0+0+
The Taylor expansion of f in powers of x is therefore the series
0+0+0+ ...
which converges for each x but converges to f (x) only when x = 0.
