Compute the standard part of b+2e-e^2 where st(b)=5 and e is is infinitesimal. Provide your answer below.

Question

When I put "e" it is the a backwards 3 that I am talking about

Answer 1

b+2e-e^2 

5+2*2.718......-2.718.......^2=

5+5.4365......-7.389.......=3.047...........

The "e" I used is labeled "e^x".

The number e, known as Euler's number, is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 2.71828, and can be characterized in many ways. It is the base of the natural logarithm.^[1][2][3] It is the limit of (1 + 1/n)ⁿ as n approaches infinity, an expression that arises in the study of compound interest. It can also be calculated as the sum of the infinite series^[4][5]
