Problem 20. Prove Property 6.
Definition 2. Let E(1) be denoted by the number e. Using the series e =
E(1) = Eo, we can approrimate e to any degree of accuracy. In particular
e 2.71828.
In light of Property 6, we see that for any rational number r, E(r) = e". Not
only does this give us the series representation e" = Eo r" for any rational
number r, but it gives us a way to define e for irrational values of r as well.
That is, we can define
e = E(r) =
for any real number z.
As an illustration, we now have ev =E (V2)". The expression ev2 is
meaningless if we try to interpret it as one irrational number raised to another.
What does it mean to raise anything to the v2 power? However the series
En (V2)" does seem to have meaning and it can be used to extend the
exponential function to irrational exponents. In fact, defining the exponential
