Numerical Analysis Solution Homework

This document outlines homework problems for an Advanced Numerical Methods class. Students are asked to complete 8 problems related to solving nonlinear equations numerically using methods like bisection, false position, and Newton-Raphson. They are to review linear algebra concepts, solve equations from their textbook, and analyze the convergence of Newton-Raphson for different initial guesses to find the separatrix boundaries.

Problem 0
Conduct a comprehensive review of the Linear Algebra course, MATH 311. Review the MATLAB codes on
your Moodle account. You should be able to master basic MATLAB functions by now. You are responsible for
all the problems of Chapter 2.
Problem 1 (15 pts)
Solve Problem 2 (page 50) of your textbook, g(x) = 4 + 4x 0.5x

x 2
Problem 3 (5 pts)
Solve Problem 10 (page 61) of your textbook, f(x) = tan(x)
Problem 4 (10 pts)
Solve Problem 14 (page 62) of your textbook, f(x) = (x 1)

(x 2)(x 3)
Problem 5 (25 pts)
Solve by bisection and false position the roots of f(x) = cos(x) + 1 x. Use [a
0
, b
0
] = [0.8, 1.6]. Tabulate the
roots, the relative error and the residual at every iteration. Terminate your search when the residual drops
below 10

Problem 6 (5 pts)
Solve problem 13 (page 86) of your textbook.
Problem 7 (5 pts)
Solve problem 15 (page 86) of your textbook, f(x) = (x 1)

Problem 8 (30 pts)
Consider the nonlinear equation f(x) = 0 where f(x) = arctan(x). We attempt to solve for the obvious and
unique root x = 0 by Newton-Raphson. Study the plot placed on Moodle.
a - start with the initial guess x
0
= 1.391 and perform 10 iterations, tabulate your results (5 pts)
b - start with the initial guess x
0
= 1.392 and perform 10 iterations, tabulate your results (5 pts)
c - what do you conclude from the above analysis, set the equation which determines the boundaries of the
corresponding separatrix (8 pts)
d - now that you have a good interval for the boundaries solution, solve for them using the bisection method
(12 pts).
