Assignment 1 NMST

This document contains 10 numerical analysis and statistical techniques assignment questions for a class taught by Dr. Prashanta Majee. The questions cover topics like errors in numerical computations, exponential series, absolute error, relative error, percentage error, algebraic and transcendental equations, the bisection method, Regula-Falsi method, finding intersections of functions graphically and numerically, and applying the Regula-Falsi and secant methods to find roots of equations. Students are asked to write explanations, perform calculations, and provide the number of iterations required to find answers to a given decimal place of accuracy.

Subject: Numerical Methods and Statistical Techniques

Teacher: Dr. Prashanta Majee Assignment- 1


1. Write a short note on errors in numerical computations.
2. Find the number of terms in the exponential series in such that their sum gives the
value of correct up to 8 decimal places at x=1.
3. If and errors in x, y, z are 0.03, 0.01, 0.02 respectively at x=3, y=1, z=2,
calculate absolute error, relative error and percentage error in evaluating R.
4. Given that . Find the relative error at x=y=z=1 when the error in each of x, y, z
is 0.005.
5. Explain algebraic and transcendental equations with examples.
6. The equation has a root at r=0.61906129. Beginning with the interval [0, 1]
apply six iterations of the bisection method to find this root. How many iteration is
needed to evaluate the root correct up to 4 decimal places -that is , |x-r|<.00005? How
many for eight decimal places?
Note: If a number is correct to n decimal places then the absoluteerror is less than or
equals to .
7. Using bisection method, find the x–value of the point of intersection correct up to four
decimal places, where the curves intersect.
8. Explain Regula-Falsi method by stating at least one advantage over bisection method.
9. Find where the cubic polynomial intersect the parabola . Make
a sketch of the two graphs to locate the intersection and then perform 4 iterations of
the Regula-Falsi method to find the x-value of the point of intersection.
10. Perform six iteration of Regula-Falsi and Secant method to find the root of
. Take initial approximation as 0 and 1.
