Use Euler's Method to solve the ODE \( \frac{dy}{dx} = y - x^2 + 1 \) from \( x = 0 \) to \( x = 0.3 \) with \( y(0) = 0.5 \) and step size \( h = 0.1 \).
💡 Hint: Follow the Euler's method process carefully through the iterations.
A differential equation model cites \( \frac{dy}{dx} = 3y + 2x \), with \( y(0) = 1 \). Calculate \( y(0.1), y(0.2), y(0.3) \) using \( h = 0.1 \).
💡 Hint: Make sure to apply the correct formula for each iteration.
