The roots of this fast equation (x, = 2 and x, = 3) can be determined very easily using d 14, 122 d123 ARITHMETIC D Approximate solution for any equations 13 General Since the analytical determination of zeroes (roots) from algebraic or evan transcendental equations is only possible with restrictions, in D14 to D16 the following methods for approxi- mate solutions are given: Newton's method Secant-method Linear interpolation (Regula falsi). Starting with an approximate initial value any degree of accuracy can be reached by iteration. Example of an algebraic equation (polynomial): x¢-322 4+ 7x-5-=0. Example of a transcendental equation: x-la(z)-1=0. Procedure ® Graphical determination of the initial approximation by drawing the curve from a table of known values. @ Choice of one of the 3 afore mentioned methods. Please note that Linear interpolation is always convergent. For the ‘other methods convergence is only guaranteed under conditions given in 014 und D15. The disadvantage of this additional examination usually will be compensated by considerably faster convergence. ® Improved convergence can often be reached by starting with one method and continuing with another one; espe- cially when no improvement in results has been reached with one method after several iterations.

Calculation of x, is made by: X= Xq — f%q)/f' (Xp). The improved value x2 is calculated using x, in a similar way: Hy = — Flr) /f' ) ete.

Comment: The values f(x,) and /'(x,) which are necessary for Newton’s methed can be calculated very easily using the Horner method given in D 11. Example: f(x) =x-Igx - 1. The starting value for a zero to fulfil F(x) = 0 may be x = 3. 1st step: 125 requires the value of the derivative f' (xp) to be calculated: f'Q) = lg(x) + Ig(e) = Iga) + 0.494.294. 2nd step: Determination of an improved value x, : From d125 the values xg = 3, f(xo) = 0.431364 and f(x) = 0.911415 lead to x, = 2.526710.

Experimental probabllity P(A) If an event A is satisfied by a certain outcome of an experiment and, when the experiment is repeated m times under exactly the same conditions, A occurs r times out of n, then P(A) = limit (r/n) ase Axioms to the probability P(A) & 0, event A has the probability P(A) fA) = number of events in which A occurs number of possible events = relative frequency = P(Aj) = 1-0. The sum of the probabilities of all possible events Aj taking place must be 1-0. P(AnB)®) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A B®) lf A and B cannot take place at once, then = P(A)+ P(B) and the events are said to be disjoint. P(A/B) = P(AnB)iP(B)" is called the probability of A condi- tional on B (the probability of the event A, given ‘that the event B has happened). lf the events are independent (if the knowledge that one event has occurred has no effect on the probability of the other occurring)assuming P(A} resp. P(B) + 0. P{A/B) = P(A), and P{BIA) = P(B) P(A) x P(8) if events are independent. P(A) x P(A) = 0, as A and A are mutually exciusive.
