Solved: Consider the initial-value problem y(1) = 5. The

Chapter 9, Problem 18E

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the initial-value problem \(y^{\prime}=2 x-3 y+1\), y(1) = 5. The analytic solution is

\(y(x)=\frac{1}{9}+\frac{2}{3} x+\frac{38}{9} e^{-3(x-1)}\).

(a) Find a formula involving c and h for the local truncation error in the nth step if the RK4 method is used.

(b) Find a bound for the local truncation error in each step if h  0.1 is used to approximate y(1.5).

(c) Approximate y(1.5) using the RK4 method with h = 0.1 and h = 0.05. See Problem 3. You will need to carry more than six decimal places to see the effect of reducing the step size.

y^prime=2 x-3 y+1

y(x)=1/9+2/3 x+38/9 e^-3(x-1)
