Evaluate the following integrals, showing all your working
Consider the function f(x) = 2x³-4x2-x+1.
(a) Without doing a sketch, show that the cubic equation has at least one solution on the interval
[0,1]. Use a theorem discussed in lectures, or see Section 1.8 of Calculus (7th ed) by Stewart.
Ensure that the conditions of the theorem are satisfied (include this in your solution)
(b) Now, by sketching the cubic (by hand or by computer), you should see that there is, in fact,
exactly one zero in the interval [0,1]. Use Newton's method to find this zero accurate to 3
decimal places. You should include a sketch of the cubic, Newton's iteration formula, and
the list of iterates. [Use a computer if possible, e.g., a spreadsheet or MatLab.]

(a) Using the trapezoidal method with 3 columns, estimate the value of the integral f² f(x)dx. (b) Using the trapezoidal method with 10 columns, estimate the value of the integral f² f(x)dx. You many need software to help you do this (e.g. MATLAB, Excel, Google sheets). (c) Use software to accurately calculate the integral (e.g. Wolfram alpha, Matlab). Using this answer, comment on the answers you found in parts a) and b).arrow_forwardUsing the first-principles definition of differentiation, find the derivative of f(x) = = 2x²arrow_forward
- Evaluate the following integrals, showing all your workingarrow_forwardDifferentiate the following functionarrow_forward2. You manage a chemical company with 2 warehouses. The following quantities of Important Chemical A have arrived from an international supplier at 3 different ports: Chemical Available (L) Port 1. 400 Port 2 110 Port 3 100 The following amounts of Important Chemical A are required at your warehouses: Warehouse 1 Warehouse 2 Chemical Required (L) 380 230 The cost in £ to ship 1L of chemical from each port to each warehouse is as follows: Warehouse 1 Warehouse 2 Port 1 £10 £45 Port 2 £20 £28 Port 3 £13 £11 (a) You want to know how to send these shipments as cheaply as possible. For- mulate this as a linear program (you do not need to formulate it in standard inequality form). (b) Suppose now that all is as in the previous question but that only 320L of Important Chemical A are now required at Warehouse 1. Any excess chemical can be transported to either Warehouse 1 or 2 for storage, in which case the company must pay only the relevant transportation costs, or can be disposed of at the…arrow_forward
- choose true options in these from given question a) always full and always crossing. b) always full and sometimes crossing. c) always full and never crossing. d) sometimes full and always crossing. e) sometimes full and sometimes crossing. f) sometimes full and never crossing. g) never full and always crossing. h) never full and sometimes crossing. i) never full and never crossing.arrow_forwardAt a Noodles & Company restaurant, the probability that a customer will order a nonalcoholic beverage is 0.49. Find the probability that in a sample of 13 customers, at least 7 will order a nonalcoholic beveragearrow_forward10. In the general single period market model with = {W1, W2, W3}, one risky asset, S, and a money market account, we have So = 4 for the risky asset. Moreover, the effective rate of interest on the money market account is 5% and at time t = 1 we have W1 W2 W3 S₁ 100 50 40 21 21 21 (a) Calculate all risk-neutral probability measures for this model. [4 Marks] (b) State if the model is arbitrage-free. Give a brief reason for your answer. [2 Marks] (c) A large bank has designed an investment product with payoff X at time t = 1. Given W₁ W2 W3 X 0 1 1.5 show that X is an attainable contingent claim. [4 marks]arrow_forward
