What is Taylor Polynomial of Degree 8 at x=2 about?

This document describes using MATLAB to: 1) Obtain the Taylor polynomial of order 8 around the point a=2 for the function f(x)=x^3-12x^2-3x-15. 2) Evaluate the Taylor polynomial at the point x=2.5 and calculate the error compared to the actual function value. 3) Plot the derivatives, Taylor polynomials, and original function to compare the approximations. The results show that when the evaluation point x is closer to the approximation point a, the Taylor polynomial is a better approximation of the origina
