Maclaurin Series Coefficient for a Composite Function

Mark
< Prev
Next >

The function ff is represented by its Maclaurin series, f(x)=2x+x2+13x3+112x4+⋯f(x) = 2x + x^2 + \displaystyle\frac{1}{3}x^3 + \displaystyle\frac{1}{12}x^4 + \cdots, which converges for all real numbers xx. If a function gg is defined by g(x)=11+f(x)g(x) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{1 + f(x)}, what is the coefficient of x3x^3 in the Maclaurin series for gg?

A

−143-\displaystyle\frac{14}{3}

B

−133-\displaystyle\frac{13}{3}

C

−5-5

D

−113-\displaystyle\frac{11}{3}
