\[x \cdot \left(\left(1 + \frac{x}{2}\right) + \frac{x \cdot x}{6}\right)\]

Derivation

  1. Initial program 58.6

    \[e^{x} - 1\]

  2. Taylor expanded around 0 0.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x + \left(\frac{1}{6} \cdot {x}^{3} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot {x}^{2}\right)}\]

  3. Simplified0.4

    \[\leadsto \color{blue}{x + \left(x \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} + x \cdot \frac{1}{6}\right)}\]

  4. Final simplification0.4

    \[\leadsto x + \left(\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{6} \cdot x\right) \cdot \left(x \cdot x\right)\]
