Question 1
Given the function f(x) = x^3, use both forward and central difference methods with h = 0.1 to approximate f'(2). Compare the accuracy of your approximations.
π‘ Hint: Use your calculated values of f for both methods to derive the results.
Question 2
Analyze the performance of the backward difference method with various step sizes on f(x) = ln(x) around x = 1. What do you find?
π‘ Hint: Evaluate each result and discuss.
