2. For the given functions f (x), let x0 = 1, x1 = 1.25, and x2 = 1.6. Construct interpolation polynomials
of degree at most one and at most two to approximate f (1.4), and find the absolute error.
a. f (x) = sin πx c. f (x) = log10 (3x − 1)

b. f (x) = 3 x − 1 d. f (x) = e2x − x
3. Use Theorem 3.3 to find an error bound for the approximations in Exercise 1.

each of the following:
a. f (8.4) if f (8.1) = 16.94410, f (8.3) = 17.56492, f (8.6) = 18.50515, f (8.7) = 18.82091

b. f − 13 if f (−0.75) = −0.07181250, f (−0.5) = −0.02475000, f (−0.25) = 0.33493750,
f (0) = 1.10100000
c. f (0.25) if f (0.1) = 0.62049958, f (0.2) = −0.28398668, f (0.3) = 0.00660095, f (0.4) =
0.24842440

b. f (0) if f (−0.5) = 1.93750, f (−0.25) = 1.33203, f (0.25) = 0.800781, f (0.5) = 0.687500
c. f (0.18) if f (0.1) = −0.29004986, f (0.2) = −0.56079734, f (0.3) = −0.81401972, f (0.4) =

7. The data for Exercise 5 were generated using the following functions. Use the error formula to find a
bound for the error, and compare the bound to the actual error for the cases n = 1 and n = 2.
a. f (x) = x ln x
b. f (x) = x3 + 4.001x 2 + 4.002x + 1.101
c. f (x) = x cos x − 2x 2 + 3x − 1
d. f (x) = sin(ex − 2)
8. The data for Exercise 6 were generated using the following functions. Use the error formula to find a
bound for the error, and compare the bound to the actual error for the cases n = 1 and n = 2.
a. f (x) = e2x
b. f (x) = x 4 − x 3 + x 2 − x + 1
c. f (x) = x 2 cos x − 3x
d. f (x) = ln(ex + 2)
9. Let P3 (x) be the interpolating polynomial for the data (0, 0), (0.5, y), (1, 3), and (2, 2). The coefficient
of x 3 in P3 (x) is 6. Find y.

10. Let f (x) = x − x 2 and P2 (x) be the interpolation polynomial on x0 = 0, x1 and x2 = 1. Find the
largest value of x1 in (0, 1) for which f (0.5) − P2 (0.5) = −0.25.
11. Use the following values and four-digit rounding arithmetic to construct a third Lagrange polyno-
mial approximation to f (1.09). The function being approximated is f (x) = log10 (tan x). Use this
knowledge to find a bound for the error in the approximation.

f (1.00) = 0.1924 f (1.05) = 0.2414 f (1.10) = 0.2933 f (1.15) = 0.3492

12. Use the Lagrange interpolating polynomial of degree three or less and four-digit chopping arithmetic
to approximate cos 0.750 using the following values. Find an error bound for the approximation.

cos 0.698 = 0.7661 cos 0.733 = 0.7432 cos 0.768 = 0.7193 cos 0.803 = 0.6946

The actual value of cos 0.750 is 0.7317 (to four decimal places). Explain the discrepancy between the
actual error and the error bound.
