By evaluating the integral exactly, show that the arror of the approximation is about 0.47%
5. Using the substituition v = x + y, show that the equation . Hence, show that that satisfies x = 2 and y = -3.
6. (a) Given
, find
. . .
[2 marks]
(b) The equation of a curve is given by i) Show that the first derivative of y is
[3 marks] [4 marks]
ii) Find the equation of the normal to the curve at the point (1, 4).
7. Sketch two suitable graph on the same coordinates axes to show that the equation has only one real root and it lies between 1 and 2. This root is denoted by and is to be found using two different numerical methods, starting with the same initial approximation in each case. [3 marks] (a) Show that is a root of the equation decimal places. . Hence, find correct to two [6 marks] [6 marks]
(b) Use the Newton-Raphson method to find correct to three decimal places
8. A solid of revolution is formed by rotating the curve y = 0 to y = 1. If the volume of the solid formed is V, show that . Find the exact value of V.
Use the trapezium rule with 6 ordinates to find an approximation to V, correct to 3 significant figures. [4 marks] State whether you have over-estimate or under-estimate the value of V and give your reason. Find the percentage of error in the above estimation. [4 marks]
