7. Let $p(x) = a_nx^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + ... + a_0$. Task: • Describe an algorithm on "paper" using pseudocode, that you can employ the Horner's algorithm idea to efficiently calculate the Taylor polynomial (coefficients) of degree $m \le n$ of the given polynomial $p(x)$ centered around any point $x_0 \neq 0$. Specifically, you need to determine the coefficients $c_k = \frac{p^{(k)}(x_0)}{k!}$ for $k = 0, 1, ..., m$. (you may choose to follow the hint below) • Briefly explain why this algorithm will also work if $m < n$. • Write the Matlab code to efficiently implement this algorithm • Choose the polynomials from problem 3 and 4 and calculate the Taylor polynomial of the same degree centered at $x_0 = 1.73$ using your code. Verify your code by comparing the values of the original polynomial and its Taylor polynomial at several points. • Test also your code by computing the values at those same points as the previous bullet, of thes computed one-degree-less Taylor polynomials, around the same $x_0$. Hint: • Start by evaluating $p(x_0)$. What does it give you? • Conceptually subtract $p(x_0)$ from $p(x)$ to form a new polynomial, and recognize that it has $(x-x_0)$ as a factor. Use an idea similar to Horner's method to factor out $(x-x_0)$ iteratively, forming a polynomial $q(x)$ such that $(x-x_0)q(x) = p(x) - p(x_0)$. • Efficiently evaluate just the $q(x_0)$ what does it give you now? Repeat this process.

Under certain water conditions, the free chlorine (hypochlorous acid, HOCI) in a swimming pool decomposes according to the law of uninhibited decay. After shocking a pool, the pool boy, Geoff, tested the water and found the amount of free chlorine to be 2.3 parts per million (ppm). Twenty-four hours later, Geoff tested the water again and found the amount of free chlorine to be 1.9 ppm What will be the reading after 3 days (that is, 72 hours)? When the chlorine level reaches 1.0 ppm, Geoff must shock the pool again. How long can Geoff go before he must shock the pool again? After 3 days, or 72 hours, the amount of free chlorine in the pool will be ppm. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.) Geoff will need to shock the pool again in hours (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest tenth as needed)
