Find the positive root of the equation f(x) = x2 - 2 = 0. Find the Taylor series and the Taylor polynomials generated by f(x) = ex at x = 0. Use the Trapezoidal Rule with n = 4 to estimate int12 x2 dx. Compare the estimate with the exact value. [3+3+4]
Find the positive root of the equation $f(x) = x^2 - 2 = 0$.
Find the Taylor series and the Taylor polynomials generated by $f(x) = e^x$ at $x = 0$.
Use the Trapezoidal Rule with $n = 4$ to estimate $\int_{1}^{2} x^2 dx$. Compare the estimate with the exact value.
