NUMERICAL METHODS Problem Sheet # 01

(1) Find a real root of following non-linear equations, to an absolute error of at most 0.1%, using Bisection, Regula-Falsi, Newton-Raphson and Fixed Point iteration methods: (i) 2e x sin x 0 (2) (ii) x3 4 x2 10 0 (iii) 2 x log10 x 10 (iv) sin x 1 x3

A Software Company sells a newly developed software product at $36/units. The total cost the company spends to developers on development of x thousand software products varies as: C ( x) 4 x3 18x 2 7 x 300 . Determine how many new software products must be produced and sold in order to assure gain in the profit? Obtain results to an absolute percentile error tolerance of 0.1. [Solve this question by all four discussed methods] After the execution of an Anti-Virus Program, the number of infected files n in a Computer HD decreasing after t minutes follows the function n(t ) 300e1.6t 0.003t . Find the time after which no infected file remains to 0.1% absolute error.
