What is the greatest value of h that can be Use the formula in approximating the derivative
(same as Sample Problem 2) of
f(x) = 2x³- 3x + 1 at x=1 using h=0.5 Compute the absolute and relative errors
Ps. The picture below is Sample Prob. 2 you can base your solution there
![Sample Problem 2:
Determine the absolute error and relative error when approximating the derivative of f(x) = -x² + 5x at
x=2 using the approximation formula,
f'(x) =
f(x+h)-f(x)
h
with h=0.1
Solution: The approximation formula represents the approximated value while the true value is simply
the derivative f'(x) at x=2.
AV:
f(x + h) = f(x) _ [−(x + 0.1)² + 5(x + 0.1)] - [-x² + 5x]
f'(x) =
h
0.1
[-(2+0.1)² + 5(2 + 0.1)] − [−(2)² +5(2)]
f'(x) =

f'(2) =
= 0.9
TV:
Thus,
0.1
f'(x) = -2x+5
f'(2) = -2(2) +5=1
ε = 10.9|= 0.1
