Sheet2 (System of Equs. and Newton Interpolation)

The document provides three systems of equations to solve using Gauss elimination and two problems involving Newton interpolation. The first problem asks to find the value of y at x=3.5 using Newton's interpolating polynomial. The second problem asks to determine the value of x that corresponds to f(x)=0.93 using quadratic and cubic interpolation on some tabulated data.

Sheet 2

System of equations and newton interpolation

A) Solve by Gauss elimination

1- Given the system of equations


−1.1x1 + 10x2 = 120
−2x1 + 17.4x2 = 174

2- Given the system of equations


−3x2 + 7x3 = 4
x1 + 2x2 − x3 = 0
5x1 − 2x2 = 3
3- Given the equations
10x1 + 2x2 − x3 = 27
−3x1 − 5x2 + 2x3 = −61.5
x1 + x2 + 6x3 = −21.5
B) Interpolation

1- Use Newton’s interpolating polynomial to determine y at x = 3.5 to the best possible


accuracy
x=0 1 2. 5 3 4.5 5 6
y= 2 5.4375 7.3516 7.5625 8.4453 9.1875 12
2- Determine the value of x that corresponds to f (x) = 0.93 for the following tabulated
data
x= 0 1 2 3 4 5
f (x)= 0 0.5 0.8 0.9 0.941176 0.961538

Note that the values in the table were generated with the function f (x) = x2∕(1 + x2).
(a) Determine the correct value analytically.
(b) Use quadratic interpolation and the quadratic formula to
determine the value numerically.
(c) Use cubic interpolation and to determine the value numerically.
