Numerical Assignment

This document contains instructions and questions for an assignment on numerical methods and statistics. It includes two questions: 1) Apply Euler's method and Adams-Bashforth/Adams-Moulton method to solve a system of first-order initial value problems and approximate values of y and u. 2) Perform statistical analysis on a sample data set, including calculating measures of central tendency, dispersion, percentiles, and constructing a cumulative frequency distribution and ogive. Students must show all working, round answers to four decimal places, and submit the assignment by the specified deadline to avoid penalties for late submission or plagiarism.

Instructions:
(a) Answer all the questions and show all the workings for which you wish to receive credit.
(b) Write all the solutions using PEN.
(c) Prepare all the computations in FOUR decimal places.
(d) DEADLINE: 27 March 2018 (Tuesday) before 12 noon. The deadline is final and no
extension is allowed. Delay in submission of the assignment will delay the marking process. Thus
a penalty of 5 marks per day will be imposed for late submission of assignment.

Questions:

1. Consider the system of first order initial value problems

dy
= u2 − xy − x2 , y(5) = 3
dx
du
= xu − y 2 + 3x, u(5) = 2
dx
(a) Apply Euler method to approximate y and u for 5.001 ≤ x ≤ 5.003 with 4x = 0.001.
(12 marks)
(b) Apply Adams-Bashforth/Adams-Moulton method to approximate y(5.004) and u(5.004) with
the result in part (a) and 4x = 0.001. (18 marks)
Ans.
(a) f (x, y, u) = u2 − xy − x2 , g(x, y, u) = xu − y 2 + 3x, x0 = 5, y0 = 3, u0 = 2
yn+1 = yn + hf (xn , yn , un ) = yn + 0.001(u2n − xn yn − x2n )
un+1 = un + hg(xn , yn , un ) = un + 0.001(xn un − yn2 + 3xn )

n = 0 : y1 = 2.964, u1 = 2.016
n = 1 : y2 = 2.9282, u2 = 2.0323
n = 2 : y3 = 2.8927, u3 = 2.0489

(b) f0 = −36, f1 = −35.7687, f2 = −35.5368, f3 = −35.3042
g0 = 16, g1 = 16.2997, g2 = 16.597, g3 = 16.8919

0.01
y4∗ = y3 + (55f3 − 59f2 + 37f1 − 9f0 ) = 2.85751

0.01
u∗4 = u3 + (55g3 − 59g2 + 37g1 − 9g0 ) = 2.06594
24
f4∗ = −35.0709
g4∗ = 17.1846
0.001
y4 = y3 + (9f4∗ + 19f3 − 5f2 + f1 ) = 2.85751 ≈ y(5.004)

0.001
u4 = u3 + (9g4∗ + 19g3 − 5g2 + g1 ) = 2.06594 ≈ u(5.004)

(a) Compute the mean, mode, and median of the data. (6 marks)

(b) Calculate the range and standard deviation of the data. (6 marks)

(c) Find the first quartile (Q1), third quartile (Q3) and interquartile (IQR) range of the data.
(6 marks)

(d) Construct its cumulative frequency distribution, cumulative relative frequency and cumula-
tive percentage. (4 marks)

(e) Convert the cumulative frequency distribution into a cumulative ”less than” and draw an
ogive for the data. (5 marks)

(f) Estimate from the ogive, the value of X, if 20% of the data values were greater than or equal
to X. (3 marks)
