Quiz (60 Minutes)

What do you know about mathematical model in solving engineering problem? (10 marks)

Use zero through third order Taylor series expansions to predict f(2.5) for f(x) = ln x using a base point at x = 1. Compute the true percent relative error for each approximation. (15 marks)

Determine the real root of f(x)= 5x3-5x2+6x-2 using bisection method. Employ initial guesses of xl = 0 and xu = 1. iterate until the estimated error a falls below a level of s = 15% (20 marks)

Solution 2

True value:f(2.5) = ln(2.5) = 0.916291...

5

Solution 1

True value:f(2.5) = ln(2.5) = 0.916291...
