Expert Solution
Step 1: Computing the values

fx=xexf0=0f'x=xex+exf'0=1f''x=xex+2exf''0=2f'''x=xex+3exf'''0=3

The Taylor series formula can be written as 

fx=k=01k!fk0x-0k      =f0+xf'0+x22!f''0++x33!f'''0+R4

Therefore 

p3x=f0+xf'0+x22!f''0++x33!f'''0

        =0+x+x2+x32=x+x2+x32

p30.1=0.1+0.12+0.132            =0.1105f0.1=0.1e0.1          0.1105171
