3. Perform three iterations of the Newton-Raphson method to solve the system of equations
𝑥𝑥 2 = 3𝑥𝑥𝑥𝑥 − 7
� , by taking 𝑥𝑥 (0) = [0.5 0.5 ]𝑇𝑇 .
𝑦𝑦 = 2(𝑥𝑥 + 1)
4. Evaluate 𝑦𝑦 = sin 𝑥𝑥 for 𝑥𝑥 = 470 and 𝑥𝑥 = 630 using the following tabular values by
applying an appropriate Newton interpolation formula.
5. A third-degree polynomial passes through the points (0, -12), (1, 0), (3, 6) and (4, 12).
a) Determine this polynomial using Lagrange’s interpolation formula, and
b) Find the value at 1.5.
6. Let f(x) = x ln(𝑥𝑥) be defined at x0 = 2, x1 = 2.5, x2 = 3.3, x3 = 4
a) Construct the divided difference table for 𝑓𝑓(𝑥𝑥) with respect to these points
b) Use Newton’s divided difference interpolation formula to find 𝑓𝑓(3.5)
7. A slider in a machine moves along a fixed straight rod. Its distance 𝑥𝑥(𝑚𝑚) along the rod
are given in the following table for various values of the time 𝑡𝑡(𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠).Then, find
the velocity and acceleration of the slider at time 𝑡𝑡 = 6 𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠𝑠.
