BISECTION METHOD

QUESTION 1:
Using bisection method, find the root of the following polynomial x^3-4x-9 with the intervals
of x0=2 and x1=3. Iteration=8 tolerance=0.001

QUESTION 2:

COMPOSITE SIMPSON’S RULE

QUESTION 1:

Simpson's Rule to numerically approximate this integral.

QUESTION 2:
Definite integral of a square root function over the interval [1,4]:

RUNGE-KUTTA

QUESTION 1:

Consider the first-order ordinary differential equation (ODE) with

an initial condition y(0) = 1. We'll use the Runge-Kutta method with h=0.1 to find
approximate values for the solution at x= 0.1 and x=0.2

QUESTION 2:
Consider a different first-order ordinary differential equation
(ODE): with an initial condition y(0)=2. We'll use the Runge-Kutta method with h=0.2 to
find approximate values for the solution at x= 0.2 and x=0.4

QUESTION 3:
The first-order ordinary differential equation with an initial
condition y(0)=1. We’ll use the runge-kutta method h=0.2 to find the approximate values
for the solution at x=0.2 and x=0.4
