The first derivative d) of a function f(x) at a point x = x0 can be approximatedwith the two-point central difference formula:df(x) =f(x0+h)-f(x0-h)dx 2hwhere h is a small number relative to x0 Write a user-defmed function function(see Section 7.9) that calculates the derivative of a math function f(x) byusing the two-point central difference formula. For the user-defined functionname, use dfdx=Funder (Fun, xO), where Fun is a name for the functionthat is passed into Funder, and xO is the point where the derivative is calculated.Use h = x0/100 in the two-point central difference formula. Use theuser-defmed function Funder to calculate the following:(a) The derivative of f(x) = x3 e2x at x0 = 0.6 (b) The derivative of f(x) = 3: at x0 = 2.5XIn both cases compare the answer obtained from Funder with the analyticalsolution (use format long).
