Answer

$5-\dfrac{5}{2!}\pi^2x^2+\dfrac{5}{4!}\pi^4x^4-\dfrac{5 }{6!}\pi^6x^6+..$

Work Step by Step

Consider the Maclaurin Series for $\cos x$ as follows: $ \cos x=\Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{(-1)^n x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ Plug $(\pi x)$ instead of $x$ in the above series. This implies that $5 \cos (\pi x)=5 \Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{(-1)^n (\pi x)^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ $\implies 5 \cos (\pi x)=5-\dfrac{5}{2!}\pi^2x^2+\dfrac{5}{4!}\pi^4x^4-\dfrac{5 }{6!}\pi^6x^6+..$
