Forward Difference Formula
jf xj fj = ? ∆fj ∆2fj ∆3fj Approx Value True Value % abs error
0 1.7 0.397985
‐0.057998
1 1.8 0.339986 ‐0.000169
‐0.058168 0.000409 0.386418 0.386418 0.000027
2 1.9 0.281819 0.000240
‐0.057928
3 2.0 0.223891
Solving r, 
r = (x‐x0)/h = (1.72‐1.7)/0.1 = 0.2

Solving Approx. Value,
Approx. Value = fj+(∆fj*r)+(((r*(r‐1))/2!)*∆^2fj)+(((r*(r‐1)*(r‐2))/3!)*∆^3fj)
= 0.397985+(‐0.057998*0.2)+(((0.2*(0.2‐1))/2!)*‐0.000169)+(((0.2*(0.2‐1)*(0.2‐2))/3!)*0.000409)
= 0.386418

Solving True Value,

Solving r, 
r = (x‐x0)/h = (1.72‐2.0)/0.1 = ‐2.8

Solving Approx. Value,
Approx. Value = fj+(∇fj*r)+(((r*(r+1))/2!)*∇^2fj)+(((r*(r+1)*(r+2))/3!)*∇^3fj)
