Use anonymous function method to create the function $e^{-x}\sin(x)-\ln(x^2+10^{-5})$. Then use the \"fplot\" command to plot it over a range of x values from $-\pi$ to $\pi$. If there any roots in this range, use the \"fzero\" command to find them.

Step 1
The given equation is e*sin(x) - In(x^2) + 10 - 5. We can create an anonymous function for this equation using the following syntax: f = @(x) exp(1)*sin(x) - log(x^2) + 10 - 5; Show more…

Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Then use the zoom and trace features to find the zeros of the function. Is the function one-to-one? $$ f(x)=2\left(3 x^{2}-\frac{6}{x}\right) $$

Determine the positive roots of the simultaneous nonlinear equations: y = x^2 + 1 y = 2 cosx Use a graphical approach to obtain your initial guesses. Plot both the equations in one plot area. You may have two sets of solutions. Considering one of the solutions and selecting initial guesses close to that solution (you can take x = 0.7 and y = 1.5), use Newton-Raphson Method to solve the system of equations, shown above. εs = 0.01 %.

Use a graphing utility or a programmable calculator and the Bisection Method to solve the equations to 3 decimal places. As a first step, try to guess a small interval that you can be sure contains a root. $$x^{3}+x-1=0$$
