Question

a) Please provide a correct and well explained solution for the following; 

**Problem Statement:**

Consider the Initial Value Problem (IVP):
\[ x'' + (x')^2 + 6tx = 0, \quad x(0) = 3, \quad x'(0) = 4 \]

Using the Euler method with a time step of:
\[ \Delta t = 0.4 \]

Approximate \( x(0.8) \) to the nearest thousandth (3 decimal places). In the answer box just put the approximation, nothing else.

**Notation:**

- \( x = x(t) \)
- \( x' = \frac{dx}{dt} \)
- \( x'' = \frac{d^2x}{dt^2} \)
