(f) List all the equilibrium solution in the direction field shown above in the chart.

## Worksheet 10: Direction Fields and Euler’s Method

### Direction Fields

The image includes a direction field, a graphical representation used to visualize the slope of solutions to a differential equation. The diagram consists of a grid of small line segments, each indicating the direction of the system’s behavior at that point. The spacing of the lines suggests regions of different behavior, critical for analyzing equilibrium points and stability.

### Task (f)

- **Objective**: List all equilibrium solutions in the direction field provided.
- **Classification**: Determine the stability of each equilibrium solution.
- **Sketching Task**: Create an approximate trajectory for the initial condition \( y(0) = 2.9 \).

### Euler’s Method

Euler’s Method is a numerical technique used to approximate solutions to initial value problems of differential equations.

#### Part a)

- **Step Size**: \( h = 1 \)
- **Objective**: Use Euler’s Method to approximate \( y(2), y(3), \) and \( y(4) \) for the initial value problem:
  \[
  y' = x^2 - y, \quad y(1) = 3
  \]

#### Part b)

- **Step Size**: \( h = \frac{1}{2} \)
- **Objective**: Use Euler’s Method to approximate \( y(6) \) for the function \( y(x) \) that solves the initial value problem:
  \[
  y' = 4y, \quad y(3) = \frac{1}{4}
  \]

This worksheet guides the application of direction fields and Euler's Method for analyzing and solving differential equations visually and numerically.
