- Use the dsolve() function to solve the differential equation 8Dy3(t) = cos(20t) + sin(2t) for initial conditions y(10) = 50, Dy(0) = 0, Dy2(0) = 0, and y(10) = 5, Dy(0) = 0, Dy2(0) = 3. Plot your solutions on a single figure as a solid curve for the first set initial conditions and a dotted curve fo rthe second set of initial conditions for time t = -10 to 20.

- You wish to drive from point A to point B along a highway minimizing the time that you are stopped for gas. You are told beforehand the capacity C of you gas tank in liters, your rate F of fuel consumption in liters/kilometer, the rate r in liters/minute at which you can fill your tank at a gas station, and the locations A = x1, ··· , B = xn of the gas stations along the highway. So if you stop to fill your tank from 2 liters to 8 liters, you would have to stop for 6/r minutes. Consider the following two algorithms: (a) Stop at every gas station, and fill the tank with just enough gas to make it to the next gas station. (b) Stop if and only if you don’t have enough gas to make it to the next gas station, and if you stop,fill the tank up all the way. For each algorithm either prove or disprove that this algorithm correctly solves the problem. Your proof of correctness must use an exchange argument.arrow_forward(Numerical analysis) Here’s a challenging problem for those who know a little calculus. The Newton-Raphson method can be used to find the roots of any equation y(x)=0. In this method, the (i+1)stapproximation,xi+1,toarootofy(x)=0 is given in terms of the ith approximation, xi, by the following formula, where y’ denotes the derivative of y(x) with respect to x: xi+1=xiy(xi)/y(xi) For example, if y(x)=3x2+2x2,theny(x)=6x+2 , and the roots are found by making a reasonable guess for a first approximation x1 and iterating by using this equation: xi+1=xi(3xi2+2xi2)/(6xi+2) a. Using the Newton-Raphson method, find the two roots of the equation 3x2+2x2=0. (Hint: There’s one positive root and one negative root.) b. Extend the program written for Exercise 6a so that it finds the roots of any function y(x)=0, when the function for y(x) and the derivative of y(x) are placed in the code.arrow_forwardDraw a CIRCLE OF UNIT RADIUS: Use parametric equation of unit circle x=cos , y= sin 0arrow_forward
