(b) Now use Newton's method with an initial guess of x1 = 1 to find x2 and x3.arrow_forwardsolve for y, xyey+tan-1(x2+y2)=π/4arrow_forwardFind the Value(s)...arrow_forward

The minimum average monthly temperature in Edmonton can be found by subtracting 17.14 °C and °C. 2. Find the equation in the form y = asin(bx + c)+ d.

State the amplitude A, period P, and midline. State the phase shift and vertical translation. In the full period [0, P], state the maximum and minimum y-values and their corresponding x-values. Hints for the maximum and minimum values of f(x): The maximum value of y=sin(x) is y=1 and the corresponding x values are x=π2 and multiples of 2π less than and more than this x value. You may want to solve π2(x−3)=π2. The minimum value of y=sin(x) is y=−1 and the corresponding x values are x=3π2 and multiples of 2π less than and more than this x value. You may want to solve π2(x−3)=3π2. If you get a value for x that is less than 0, you could add multiples of P to get into the next cycles. If you get a value for x that is more than P, you could subtract multiples of P to get into the previous cycles. For x in the interval [0, P], the maximum y-value and corresponding x-value is at: x= y= For x in the interval [0,…arrow_forward

A car supported by a MacPherson strut (shock absorber system) travels on a bumpy road at a constant velocity v. The equation modeling the motion of the car is Tut 80x + 1000.x = 2500 cos 6. where x = x (t) represents the vertical position of the cars axle relative to its equilib- rium position, and the basic units of measurement are feet and feet per second (this is actually just an example of a forced, un-damped harmonic oscillator, if that is any help). The constant numbers above are related to the characteristics of the car and the strut. Note that the coefficient of time t (inside the cosine) in the forcing term on the right hand side is a frequency, which in this case is directly proportional to the velocity v of the car. (b) Determine the value of v for which the solution is undefined (you should present your final answer in miles per hour, as opposed to feet per second).arrow_forward
- 3. Your newly formed engineering firm is competing bidding for a contract to construct the tunnel shown here. The tunnel is 400 ft long and 60 ft wide at the base. The crossed- section is shaped like one arch of the curve y = 30 cos (). Upon completion, the 60 tunnel's inside surface (excluding the roadway) will be treated with a waterproof sealer that costs $1.75 per square foot to apply. How much will it cost to apply the sealer? Use Simpson's Rule to find the length of the cosine curve with less than 0.001 error. Show how you determine the number of intervals, n, you decide to use. y y = 30 cos (77X/60) - 30 400 it 30 x (ft) NOT TO SCALEarrow_forwardHow do I get the answer for this problem?arrow_forward1) Graph the function: y -2 cos (0 (G- )sarrow_forward
