Answer

$\Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{x^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}$

Work Step by Step

Since, we know that the Maclaurin Series for $e^x$ is defined as: $e^x=\Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{x^n}{n!}=1+x+\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+...$ Now, $ \sinh x=\dfrac{e^x -e^{-x}}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}[(1+x+\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+...)-(1-x+\dfrac{x^2}{2!}+...)]$ or, $x+\dfrac{x^3}{3!}+\dfrac{x^5}{5!} =\Sigma_{n=0}^\infty \dfrac{x^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}$
