(b) We want to find a Padé approximation R6(x), with denominator of degree 3, to the function (1) Why is it often preferred to approximate a function by a rational function rather than by a poly- nomial? Activate Wir (ii) Write down R6(x) with coefficients a, and b,. Go to Settings to (ii) Set up the equations to find the coefficients, but do NOT solve the system.
