Final Exam in Numerical Analysis

The document contains the solutions to two problems from a numerical analysis final exam. Problem 1 uses the secant method to find the sixth approximation (P_6) of the root of a function. It iteratively calculates P_2 through P_6. Problem 2 also uses the secant method, this time finding the third approximation (P_3) of the root of a quadratic function. Both problems show the calculations involved in the secant method.

FINAL EXAM IN NUMERICAL A

Problem 1. Using Secant Method, determine p_6 for the function x - x with p_0 = 0.5 and p_1 = π /4.

Solution:

π/4 =0.785398163

Problem 1. Using Secant Method, determine p_6 for the function x - x with p_0 = 0.5 and p_1 = π /4.

Therefore the value of p_6 using the Secant Method is approximately equal to 0.739085133.

Problem 2. Let f(x) = x^2-6 with p_0 =3 and p_1=2 solve for p_3 using Secant Method.

Solution:

Pn-1 Pn f(Pn-1) f(Pn) (Pn-1)f(Pn)-(Pn)f(Pn)

3 2 3 -2 -2
2 2.4 -2 -0.24 0.096000000000001
Therefore the value of p_3 using the Secant Method is approximately equal to 2.454545455 or 2.45…
