The document discusses using the secant method and optimization libraries in Python to find the optimal car pressure for maximum fuel efficiency. It includes the source code to implement the secant method, defines a fuel efficiency function, and uses scipy minimize_scalar to find the optimal pressure. Screenshots show the output of optimal pressure and maximum efficiency.

1. Source Code:

def secant method(f, x0, x1, e, max_iter=1000):


if f(x0) * f(x1) >= 0:
print ("Secant method fails: Initial points do not bracket the root.")
return None
iteration = 0
while abs(x1 - x0) >= e and iteration < max_iter:
x_temp = x1 - (f(x1) * (x1 - x0)) / (f(x1) - f(x0))
x0, x1 = x1, x_temp
iteration += 1
if iteration == max_iter:
print("Secant method fails: Maximum iterations reached.")
return None
else:
return x1
from scipy.optimize import minimize_scalar
def fuel_efficiency(pressure):
return -0.5 * pressure + 40
result = minimize_scalar(lambda x: -fuel_efficiency(x), bounds=(5, 45), method='bounded')
if result.success:
optimal_pressure = result.x
max_fuel_efficiency = -result.fun
print(f"The optimal tire pressure that maximizes fuel efficiency is {optimal_pressure} psi.")
print(f"The maximum fuel efficiency achieved is {max_fuel_efficiency} mpg.")
else:
print("Unable to find optimal tire pressure. Adjust the initial interval or check the
function.")
