EPF3109 Lab Week 3: Mathematics Operations with Arrays

Question 1

Create a column vector in which the first element is 38.5, the elements decrease with
increments of -3.5, and the last element is 0. (A column vector can be created by the
transpose of a row vector).

Question 2

Create the following matrix by using vector notation for creating vectors with constant
spacing and/or the linespace command. Do not type individual elements explicitly.

Question 3

y
x 2
 2   x2  4 

For function 2 x , calculate the value of y for the following values of x


using element-by-element operations: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.

Question 4

v   2 4 6 8 10 
Define the vector . Then use the vector in a mathematical expression
to create the following vectors:

1 1 1 1 1 

Question 5

Fisheries commonly estimate the growth of a fish population using the von Bertalanffy
growth law:

L  Lmax 1  e  K  1  
Where Lmax is the maximum length, K is a rate constant, and  is a time constant. These

constants vary with the species of fish. Assuming Lmax  58cm , K  0.45 years , and
1

  0.65 years , calculate the length of a fish at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years of age.

Question 6

Define x and y as the vectors x=[1 , 3 ,5 , 7 , 9] and y=[2 ,5 , 8 , 11 ,14 ]

Then use them in the following expressions to calculate z using element-by-element


calculations.

x y2
a) z=
x+ y
b) z=x ( x2 − y )−( x− y )2
