We can take the derivative more than once, and it is best to do this before writing out the sum in full.
Let us now examine what results: The Maclaurin series becomes:

To find the Maclaurin series for ( \frac{1}{(1+x)^3} ), we can use the geometric series expansion. The geometric series expansion is given by:
[ \frac{1}{1 - u} = 1 + u + u^2 + u^3 + \ldots ]
Substitute ( u = -x ) into the geometric series expansion:
[ \frac{1}{1 + x} = 1 - x + x^2 - x^3 + \ldots ]
Now, raise both sides to the power of 3:
[ \left(\frac{1}{1 + x}\right)^3 = (1 - x + x^2 - x^3 + \ldots)^3 ]
Expanding the right side using the binomial theorem:
[ = 1 - 3x + 6x^2 - 10x^3 + \ldots ]
Thus, the Maclaurin series for ( \frac{1}{(1+x)^3} ) is:
[ 1 - 3x + 6x^2 - 10x^3 + \ldots ]

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
