The function satisfies and . The spreadsheet below will be used to approximate using Euler’s method. An arrow indicates that the entry of a cell will be copied down the column.
(a) What should you type in cell C3? Try to make your syntax as accurate as possible. |
Make sure you understand the problem fully: What is the question asking you to do? Are there specific conditions or constraints that you should take note of? How will you know if your answer is correct from your work only? Can you rephrase the question in your own words in a way that makes sense to you? |
If you are stuck, check the hint below. Consider it for a while. Does it give you a new idea on how to approach the problem? If so, try it! |
Hint |
