According to the Table below calculate the function value at x = 2: a) by using Linear Interpolation b) by using second degree Lagrange interpolation polynomial. For both methods calculate absolute true relative percenage errors $|\epsilon_t|$. \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline x & y = 10/e^x \\ \hline 1 & 3.678794 \\ \hline 3 & 0.497871 \\ \hline 5 & 0.067379 \\ \hline 7 & 0.009119 \\ \hline \end{tabular}

Step 1
First, we need to find the two points surrounding x=2 in the table. We don't have the table, so let's assume the table is as follows: x | f(x) ------- 1 | 0.497871 2 | ? 3 | 3.678794 Show more…

For the function f(x)=e^(-2x) estimate f(0.7) and the true percent relative error using... a) by interpolating between f(0) and f(1) using linear interpolation. b) by interpolating between f(0.5) and f(1) using linear interpolation. c) by interpolating between f(0), f(0.5) and f(1) using quadratic interpolation. d) by interpolating between f(0), f(0.5) and f(1) using linear B-spline interpolation

For the given functions f(x) = cos(x), let x0 = 0, x1 = 0.6, and x2 = 0.9. Construct interpolation polynomials of degree at most two to approximate f (0.45), and find the absolute error and the error bound.
Suman K.
Use a 2nd degree Taylor polynomial for the function f(x) = √(x+2) about x = 2 to approximate √5 and use the remainder estimate to find an upper bound on the error used in making this approximation.
