Using Euler’s Method

In Exercises 15–20, use Euler’s method to calculate the first three approximations to the given initial value problem for the specified increment size. Calculate the exact solution and investigate the accuracy of your approximations. Round your results to four decimal places.

y' = 2xy + 2y, y(0) = 3, dx = 0.2

Solving Initial Value Problems

Solve the initial value problems in Exercises 15–20.

(x+1) dy/dx - 2 (x² + x)y = exp(x²) / (x+1), x > -1, y(0) = 5

Solving Initial Value Problems
