Using Newton’s forward formula compute f(142) from the following table:

x140150160170180
f(x)3.6854.8546.3028.07610.225

Answer

To compute f(142) using Newton's forward interpolation formula, we first construct the forward difference table with h = 10 and x₀ = 140.

xf(x)Δf(x)Δ²f(x)Δ³f(x)Δ⁴f(x)
1403.6851.1690.2790.0170.007
1504.8541.4480.2960.024-
1606.3021.7740.320--
1708.0762.149---
18010.225----

The formula is given by f(x₀ + ph) = f(x₀) + pΔf(x₀) + [p(p-1)/2!]Δ²f(x₀) + [p(p-1)(p-2)/3!]Δ³f(x₀) + [p(p-1)(p-2)(p-3)/4!]Δ⁴f(x₀), where p = (x - x₀) / h.

For x = 142, p = (142 - 140) / 10 = 0.2.

Substituting the values from the table:

f(142) = 3.685 + (0.2)(1.169) + [(0.2)(0.2-1)/2](0.279) + [(0.2)(0.2-1)(0.2-2)/6](0.017) + [(0.2)(0.2-1)(0.2-2)(0.2-3)/24](0.007)
f(142) = 3.685 + 0.2338 - 0.02232 + 0.000816 + 0.0001075
f(142) = 3.8974035

Rounding to three decimal places, the value is 3.897.

By the method of least squares, find the straight line that best fits in the following data:

x12345
y1427405568
15 marks

Answer

To find the best-fit straight line of the form y = ax + b using the method of least squares, we solve the following normal equations:

Σy = aΣx + nb
Σxy = aΣx2 + bΣx

Given the data points (1, 14), (2, 27), (3, 40), (4, 55), and (5, 68), we first calculate the necessary summations for n = 5:

xyx2xy
114114
227454
3409120
45516220
56825340
Total20455748

Substituting these values into the normal equations:

204 = 15a + 5b
748 = 55a + 15b

Multiplying the first equation by 3 gives 612 = 45a + 15b. Subtracting this from the second equation:

748 - 612 = (55 - 45)a
136 = 10a
a = 13.6

Substituting a = 13.6 into the first equation:

204 = 15(13.6) + 5b
204 = 204 + 5b
b = 0

Thus, the straight line that best fits the data is y = 13.6x.
