-0.161%

Comparing part a and b together, part b is more superior because the percent(%) error is smaller when compared to part a

Step-by-step explanation:

a) y = x³− 5x² + 6x + 0.55 at x = 1.37.

Use 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error.

Let's evaluate before applying the 3 digit arithmetic chopping rule

y = 1.37³ - 5 × 1.37² + 6 × 1.37 + 0.55

y = 1.956853

Let evaluate each components of the polynomial one by one

Note that: 3-digit arithmetic chopping means to approximate chop off or remove number after the 3 significant figures.

y = x³− 5x² + 6x + 0.55 at x = 1.37.

x³ = 1.37³ = 2.571353

≈ 2.57

x² = 1.37² = 1.8769

≈ 1.88

5x² = 1.87 × 5

= 9.35

x = 1.37

6x = 1.37 × 6

6x = 8.22

Evaluating the polynomial

y = 2.57 - 9.38 + 8.22 + 0.55

y = 1.98

The percent relative round-off error =

1.956853 - 1.98/1.956853 × 100

= -1.183%

b. Express y as y = ((x − 5)x + 6)x + 0.55 (this is the same equation). Use again 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error and compare with part (a). Make the conclusion about which form of the polynomial is superior.

y = ((x − 5)x + 6)x + 0.55

Evaluating with the 3 digit chop off rule is applied

= ((1.37 - 5)1.37 + 6)1.37 + 0.55

=( 1.8769 - 6.85) + 6) 1.37 + 0.55

= (- 4.9731 + 6 )1.37 + 0.55

= 1.0269 × 1.37 + 0.55

= 1.406853

= 1.956853.

≈ 1.96

Note in: evaluating before applying the 3 digit arithmetic chopping rule

y = 1.37³ - 5 × 1.37² + 6 × 1.37 + 0.55

y = 1.956853

The percent relative round-off error

1.956853 - 1.96/1.956853 × 100

= -0.161%

Comparing part a and b together, part b is more superior because the percent(%) error is smaller when compared to part a

what type of question is thiss

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the center is the median and/or mean of the data. the spread is the range of the data. and, the shape describes the type of graph. the four ways to describe shape are whether it is symmetric, how many peaks it has, if it is skewed to the left or right, and whether it is uniform. good luck
