Chapter 4, Problem 7P

Use forward and backward difference approximations of O ( h ) and a centered difference approximation of O ( h 2 ) to estimate the first derivative of the function examined in Prob. 4.5. Evaluate the derivative at x = 2 using a step size of h = 0.2 . Compare your results with the true value of the derivative. Interpret your results on the basis of the remainder term of the Taylor series expansion.
