Question

Please solve this:

y' = -2xy, y (0) = 2; y (x) = 2e^-x^2

A hand-held calculator will suffice for Problems 1 through 10
where an initial value problem and its exact solution are given.
Apply the improved Euler method to approximate this solution
on the interval [0, 0.5] with step size h = 0.1. Construct a table
showing four-decimal-place values of the approximate solu-
tion and actual solution at the points x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4,
0.5.
