Assignment #1
Date to be submitted: 2-10-2014
1.Determine the real root of f (x) = 5x3 − 5x2 + 6x − 2:
(a) Graphically.
(b) Using bisection to locate the root. Employ initial guesses of
xl = 0 and xu = 1 and iterate until the estimated error ea falls
below a level of es = 10%.

2. Determine the real root of f (x) = −25 + 82x − 90x2 + 44x3 − 8x4 +0.7 x5 :
(a) Graphically.
(b) Using bisection to determine the root to es = 10%. Employ initial
guesses of xl = 0.5 and xu = 1.0.
(c) Perform the same computation as in (b) but use the false position
method and !s = 0.2 %.

3. (a) Determine the roots of f (x) = −12 − 21x + 18x2 – 2.75x3


graphically. In addition, determine the first root of the function with
(b) bisection, and (c) false position. For (b) and (c) use initial
guesses of xl = −1 and xu = 0, and a stopping criterion of 1%.

4.Use simple fixed-point iteration to locate the root of


f (x) = 2 sin(sqrt(x)) − x
Use an initial guess of x0 = 0.5 and iterate until ea # 0.001%. Verify
that the process is linearly convergent .

5 Determine the real root of


f (x) = 2x3 − 11.7x2 + 17.7x − 5
(a) Graphically.
(b) Fixed-point iteration method (three iterations, x0 = 3). Note:
Make certain that you develop a solution that converges on
the root.
(c) Newton-Raphson method (three iterations, x0 = 3).
(d) Secant method (three iterations, x−1 = 3, x0 = 4).
6.Use (a) fixed-point iteration and (b) the Newton-Raphson
method to determine a root of f (x) = −x2 + 1.8x + 2.5 using
x0 = 5. Perform the computation until !a is less than !s = 0.05%.
Also perform an error check of your final answer
