Answer

$7-\dfrac{7x^2}{2!}+\dfrac{7x^4}{4!}-\dfrac{7x^6}{6!}+..$

Work Step by Step

Since, we know that the Maclaurin Series for $\cos{x}$ is defined as: $ \cos x=\Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{(-1)^n x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ Now, $7 \cos (-x)=7 \cos x=7 \Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{(-1)^n x^{2n}}{(2n)!}$ or, $ 7 \cos x=7-\dfrac{7x^2}{2!}+\dfrac{7x^4}{4!}-\dfrac{7x^6}{6!}+..$
