Question
Consider the function,

Approximate the first derivative of f(x = 4) using the first order accurate forward difference, second-order accurate central difference, and fourth-order accurate central difference
( f’i = (fi-2 - 8 fi-1 + 8fi+1 – fi+2) / (12h) + O (h4) formulas. Compare the numerical approximation to the exact analytical derivative using grid spacings of h = 1, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, and 0.0001 by plotting the error (defined as the absolute value of the difference from the exact derivative) versus the grid spacing. Use log-log axes and confirm the order of accuracy of each of the formulas. Comment on your results and explain any potential abnormal behavior (there should be two).
Summary
This question belongs to MATLAB software and discusses about application of MATLAB in mathematics to solve trigonometric functions using the first order accurate forward difference, second-order accurate central difference, and fourth-order accurate central difference formulas.

Excel formulas get me confused at the very basic level and to say that I was in deep waters with using Excel Solver in my math assignments would be an understatement. Thanks to the Excel Solver assignment help experts at HwA, I am now much more confident and my grades have improved.
I was totally unaware of what exactly needed to be written in the marketing plan assignment, based on the . I needed to first get an approval from my professor about the hypothetical business and a region where it needs to be promoted. When I approached TheReliableTutor I got relieved as they provided me with certain alternatives, as they are well aware of the regions of Singapore and assured me that their marketing assignment experts can care of anything my professor approves. It is needless to say that I got an A+ in the marketing plan assignment and many other assignments going forward.
I got very solid advice on the primary intervention and assessment of the skin of a burn victim from the experts here on HwA. Since then I always take their help.
I am pursuing my masters in finance management from the Singapore Management University. Even though I have a clear idea of most of the concepts of finance from my undergraduate days, I was still looking for some guidance and help with my finance assignment. I had benefited greatly during my undergraduate days from the online finance tutor at TheReliableTutor so I decided to contact them again and since then have not looked back.
I seriously used to mix up the concepts surrounding heat transfer and mass transfer. Initially I never get to understand which assignment is related to which chapter. Then one fine day, my friend Jenny, introduced me to HwA and since then everything went fine for me.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
