Instructions
1 (a)
Given above are the temperatures in Fahrenheit on three days that are 30 days apart during winter
and in summer. Find out the approximate values of maximum and minimum temperature and
corresponding dates ( 8 marks)
(b) What is meant by extrapolation? Find the age corresponding to the annuity value 13.6 given
the following data ( 7 marks)
Age 30 35 40 45 50
(c) Explain the principle of Cubic interpolation. Determine the cubic spline for every subinterval
for the following data with end conditions 𝑀0 = 𝑀3 = 0. Hence find f(2.5) (10 marks)
x 0 1 2 3
y 1 2 33 244
