Example 5.  First find Maclaurin expansions for  [Graphics:Images/BigOMod_gr_143.gif]  and  [Graphics:Images/BigOMod_gr_144.gif]  of order  [Graphics:Images/BigOMod_gr_145.gif]  and   [Graphics:Images/BigOMod_gr_146.gif],  respectively.
Then experiment and find the order of approximation for their sum, product and quotient.  

Solution 5.
