Consider the function f(x) = 2x^3 - 5x^2 + 3x + 1. Use a backward differences approximation with a step size of h = 0.2 to estimate the value of f ' (2).
Solution by Steps
step 1
To estimate the value of f(2)f'(2) using a backward differences approximation with a step size of h=0.2h = 0.2, we first need to evaluate the function f(x)f(x) at the points x=2x = 2, x=1.8x = 1.8, and x=1.6x = 1.6
step 2
Calculate f(2)f(2): f(2)=2(2)35(2)2+3(2)+1=2(8)5(4)+6+1=1620+6+1=3 f(2) = 2(2)^3 - 5(2)^2 + 3(2) + 1 = 2(8) - 5(4) + 6 + 1 = 16 - 20 + 6 + 1 = 3
step 3
Calculate f(1.8)f(1.8): f(1.8)=2(1.8)35(1.8)2+3(1.8)+1=2(5.832)5(3.24)+5.4+1=11.66416.2+5.4+1=1.864 f(1.8) = 2(1.8)^3 - 5(1.8)^2 + 3(1.8) + 1 = 2(5.832) - 5(3.24) + 5.4 + 1 = 11.664 - 16.2 + 5.4 + 1 = 1.864
step 4
Calculate f(1.6)f(1.6): f(1.6)=2(1.6)35(1.6)2+3(1.6)+1=2(4.096)5(2.56)+4.8+1=8.19212.8+4.8+1=1.192 f(1.6) = 2(1.6)^3 - 5(1.6)^2 + 3(1.6) + 1 = 2(4.096) - 5(2.56) + 4.8 + 1 = 8.192 - 12.8 + 4.8 + 1 = 1.192
step 5
Use the backward differences formula to approximate f(2)f'(2): f(2)3f(2)4f(1.8)+f(1.6)2h f'(2) \approx \frac{3f(2) - 4f(1.8) + f(1.6)}{2h} Substitute the values: f(2)3(3)4(1.864)+1.1922(0.2)=97.456+1.1920.4=2.7360.4=6.84 f'(2) \approx \frac{3(3) - 4(1.864) + 1.192}{2(0.2)} = \frac{9 - 7.456 + 1.192}{0.4} = \frac{2.736}{0.4} = 6.84

Given ∫4−2(−x+x5)dx Using Simpson's 1/3 rule with n = 6, evaluate the given integral.
Generated Graph
Solution by Steps
step 1
To evaluate the integral 24(x+x5)dx\int_{-2}^{4} (-x + x^5) \, dx, we first find the antiderivative of the integrand
step 2
The antiderivative of x+x5-x + x^5 is x66x22+C\frac{x^6}{6} - \frac{x^2}{2} + C
step 3
Evaluate the antiderivative at the upper limit x=4x = 4: (466422)=(40966162)=(409668)=(40966486)=40486=674.67\left(\frac{4^6}{6} - \frac{4^2}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{4096}{6} - \frac{16}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{4096}{6} - 8\right) = \left(\frac{4096}{6} - \frac{48}{6}\right) = \frac{4048}{6} = 674.67
step 4
Evaluate the antiderivative at the lower limit x=2x = -2: ((2)66(2)22)=(64642)=(6462)=(646126)=526=8.67\left(\frac{(-2)^6}{6} - \frac{(-2)^2}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{64}{6} - \frac{4}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{64}{6} - 2\right) = \left(\frac{64}{6} - \frac{12}{6}\right) = \frac{52}{6} = 8.67
step 5
Subtract the value at the lower limit from the value at the upper limit: 674.678.67=666674.67 - 8.67 = 666
step 6
Now, apply Simpson's 1/3 rule with n=6n = 6 to approximate the integral. The interval [2,4][-2, 4] is divided into 6 subintervals of equal length h=1h = 1
step 7
Calculate the function values at the endpoints and midpoints: f(2),f(1),f(0),f(1),f(2),f(3),f(4)f(-2), f(-1), f(0), f(1), f(2), f(3), f(4)
step 8
Using Simpson's 1/3 rule formula: 24f(x)dxh3[f(2)+4f(1)+2f(0)+4f(1)+2f(2)+4f(3)+f(4)]\int_{-2}^{4} f(x) \, dx \approx \frac{h}{3} \left[ f(-2) + 4f(-1) + 2f(0) + 4f(1) + 2f(2) + 4f(3) + f(4) \right]
step 9
Substitute the function values and h=1h = 1 into the formula: 24(x+x5)dx13[f(2)+4f(1)+2f(0)+4f(1)+2f(2)+4f(3)+f(4)]\int_{-2}^{4} (-x + x^5) \, dx \approx \frac{1}{3} \left[ f(-2) + 4f(-1) + 2f(0) + 4f(1) + 2f(2) + 4f(3) + f(4) \right]
step 10
Simplify the expression to get the final approximation
Answer
The integral 24(x+x5)dx\int_{-2}^{4} (-x + x^5) \, dx evaluated using Simpson's 1/3 rule with n=6n = 6 is approximately 666666.

The function f(x) = 2x^3 - 5x^2 + 3x + 1 is given. Use a centered differences approximation of first order with a step size of h = 0.2 to estimate the value of f ' (2). What is the approximate value of f ' (2)?
Solution by Steps
step 1
To estimate the value of f(2)f'(2) using a centered differences approximation with a step size of h=0.2h = 0.2, we first need to evaluate the function f(x)f(x) at the points x=2.2x = 2.2 and x=1.8x = 1.8
step 2
Calculate f(2.2)f(2.2): f(2.2)=2(2.2)35(2.2)2+3(2.2)+1=2(10.648)5(4.84)+6.6+1=21.29624.2+6.6+1=4.696 f(2.2) = 2(2.2)^3 - 5(2.2)^2 + 3(2.2) + 1 = 2(10.648) - 5(4.84) + 6.6 + 1 = 21.296 - 24.2 + 6.6 + 1 = 4.696
step 3
Calculate f(1.8)f(1.8): f(1.8)=2(1.8)35(1.8)2+3(1.8)+1=2(5.832)5(3.24)+5.4+1=11.66416.2+5.4+1=1.864 f(1.8) = 2(1.8)^3 - 5(1.8)^2 + 3(1.8) + 1 = 2(5.832) - 5(3.24) + 5.4 + 1 = 11.664 - 16.2 + 5.4 + 1 = 1.864
step 4
Use the centered differences formula to estimate f(2)f'(2): f(2)f(2.2)f(1.8)2h=4.6961.8642(0.2)=2.8320.4=7.08 f'(2) \approx \frac{f(2.2) - f(1.8)}{2h} = \frac{4.696 - 1.864}{2(0.2)} = \frac{2.832}{0.4} = 7.08

Given ∫4−2(1−x−4x3+x5)dx Using the Trapezoidal rule with n = 2, evaluate the given integral.
Solution by Steps
step 1
To apply the Trapezoidal rule with n=2 n = 2 , we first determine the width of each subinterval. The interval is from 2 -2 to 4 4 , so the width h h is given by h=4(2)2=3 h = \frac{4 - (-2)}{2} = 3
step 2
Next, we identify the points at which we will evaluate the function. These points are x0=2 x_0 = -2 , x1=1 x_1 = 1 , and x2=4 x_2 = 4
step 3
We then evaluate the function f(x)=1x4x3+x5 f(x) = 1 - x - 4x^3 + x^5 at these points: f(2)=1(2)4(2)3+(2)5=1+2+3232=3 f(-2) = 1 - (-2) - 4(-2)^3 + (-2)^5 = 1 + 2 + 32 - 32 = 3 f(1)=114(1)3+(1)5=114+1=3 f(1) = 1 - 1 - 4(1)^3 + (1)^5 = 1 - 1 - 4 + 1 = -3 f(4)=144(4)3+(4)5=14256+1024=765 f(4) = 1 - 4 - 4(4)^3 + (4)^5 = 1 - 4 - 256 + 1024 = 765
step 4
Using the Trapezoidal rule formula: 24f(x)dxh2[f(x0)+2f(x1)+f(x2)] \int_{-2}^{4} f(x) \, dx \approx \frac{h}{2} \left[ f(x_0) + 2f(x_1) + f(x_2) \right] Substituting the values we found: 24(1x4x3+x5)dx32[3+2(3)+765] \int_{-2}^{4} (1 - x - 4x^3 + x^5) \, dx \approx \frac{3}{2} \left[ 3 + 2(-3) + 765 \right] =32[36+765] = \frac{3}{2} \left[ 3 - 6 + 765 \right] =32×762=1143 = \frac{3}{2} \times 762 = 1143

What is the centered difference approximation of the first derivative of a function f(x) at a point x0 ? A. (f(x0 + h) - f(x0-h)) / 2h B. (f(x0 + h) - f(x0-h)) / h C. (f(x0 - h) - f(x0 + h)) / h D. (f(x0 - h) - f(x0 + h)) / 2h
Solution by Steps
step 2
This formula is derived by taking the average of the forward difference and the backward difference approximations
step 3
The forward difference approximation is f(x0+h)f(x0)h\frac{f(x_0 + h) - f(x_0)}{h} and the backward difference approximation is f(x0)f(x0h)h\frac{f(x_0) - f(x_0 - h)}{h}
step 4
By averaging these two approximations, we get 12(f(x0+h)f(x0)h+f(x0)f(x0h)h)=f(x0+h)f(x0h)2h\frac{1}{2} \left( \frac{f(x_0 + h) - f(x_0)}{h} + \frac{f(x_0) - f(x_0 - h)}{h} \right) = \frac{f(x_0 + h) - f(x_0 - h)}{2h}

Key Concept
Forward Differences Approximation
Explanation
The forward differences approximation is used to estimate the second derivative of a function at a given point by using the function values at that point and at points a small step size away.

Solution by Steps
step 1
To evaluate the integral 42(6x+x5)dx\int_{-4}^{2} (-6x + x^5) \, dx using Simpson's 1/3 rule with n=6n = 6, we first divide the interval [4,2][-4, 2] into 6 equal subintervals. The width of each subinterval is h=2(4)6=1h = \frac{2 - (-4)}{6} = 1
step 2
We then calculate the function values at the endpoints and midpoints of the subintervals: f(4)amp;=6(4)+(4)5=241024=1000,f(3)amp;=6(3)+(3)5=18243=225,f(2)amp;=6(2)+(2)5=1232=20,f(1)amp;=6(1)+(1)5=61=5,f(0)amp;=6(0)+05=0,f(1)amp;=6(1)+15=6+1=5,f(2)amp;=6(2)+25=12+32=20. \begin{align*} f(-4) &= -6(-4) + (-4)^5 = 24 - 1024 = -1000, \\ f(-3) &= -6(-3) + (-3)^5 = 18 - 243 = -225, \\ f(-2) &= -6(-2) + (-2)^5 = 12 - 32 = -20, \\ f(-1) &= -6(-1) + (-1)^5 = 6 - 1 = 5, \\ f(0) &= -6(0) + 0^5 = 0, \\ f(1) &= -6(1) + 1^5 = -6 + 1 = -5, \\ f(2) &= -6(2) + 2^5 = -12 + 32 = 20. \end{align*}
step 3
Using Simpson's 1/3 rule formula: 42(6x+x5)dxh3[f(4)+4f(3)+2f(2)+4f(1)+2f(0)+4f(1)+f(2)] \int_{-4}^{2} (-6x + x^5) \, dx \approx \frac{h}{3} \left[ f(-4) + 4f(-3) + 2f(-2) + 4f(-1) + 2f(0) + 4f(1) + f(2) \right] Substituting the values: 42(6x+x5)dx13[1000+4(225)+2(20)+4(5)+2(0)+4(5)+20] \int_{-4}^{2} (-6x + x^5) \, dx \approx \frac{1}{3} \left[ -1000 + 4(-225) + 2(-20) + 4(5) + 2(0) + 4(-5) + 20 \right]
step 4
Simplifying the expression: 42(6x+x5)dx13[100090040+20+020+20]=13[1920]=640 \int_{-4}^{2} (-6x + x^5) \, dx \approx \frac{1}{3} \left[ -1000 - 900 - 40 + 20 + 0 - 20 + 20 \right] = \frac{1}{3} \left[ -1920 \right] = -640 Thus, the integral evaluates to approximately 640-640
Answer
-640
Key Concept
Simpson's 1/3 Rule
Explanation
Simpson's 1/3 rule is a numerical method for approximating the definite integral of a function. It uses parabolic segments to approximate the area under the curve, providing a more accurate result than the trapezoidal rule for the same number of subintervals.
