The solution is found by repeated integration. Integrating both sides of the equation f'''(x) = cos x yields f''(x) = sin x + A, where A is a constant. The initial condition f''(0) = 8 implies A = 8. So f''(x) = sin x + 8. Integrating again gives f'(x) = -cos x + 8x + B, where B is a constant. The initial condition f'(0) = 7 implies B = 8. Thus f'(x) = -cos x + 8x + 8. Integrate this once more and use the initial condition f(0) = 1 to obtain the solution f(x) = -sin x + 4x^2 + 8x + 1.

f"'(x) = cos(x) = f"(x) = -sin(x) + A. f"(0) = 8 =-sin(0) +A where A = 8 So, f"(x) = -sin(x) + 8. Integrating again gives f'(x) = -cos(x) + 8x + B f'(0) = 7 = -cos(0) + 8x + B. where -cos(0) = -1 so, -1 + 0 + B = 7. Then, B = 8 Therefore, f'(x) = -cos(x) + 8x + 8 Also, f(x) = -sin(x) + 4x^2 + 8x. where f(0) = 1 then, -sin(0) + 4(0)^2 + 8(0) + C = 1 so, C = 1 therefore the solution f(x) = -sin(x) + 4x^2 + 8x + 105/22/22

f'(0)=7 implies B = 7 not 808/07/20
