a) f(x)=1.01e4x4.62e3x3.11e2x+12.2ex1.99

f(x)=1.01(ex)44.62(ex)33.11(ex)212.2ex1.99(as enx=(ex)n)

f(1.53)=1.01(e1.53)44.62(e1.53)33.11(e1.53)2+12.2e1.531.99

=1.01(4.62)44.62(4.62)33.11(4.62)2+12.2(4.62)1.99(as e1.53=4.62)

=1.01(455.583)4.62(98.611)3.11(21.344)+56.3641.99

=460.139455.58366.380+54.374

=7.45

Therefore, the value of f(1.53) abtained by this method is -7.45.

b) The given function can be factorized sa follows. f(x)=1.01(ex+1.715)(ex0.173)(ex1.415)(ex4.702) On substituting x=1.53 and using e1.53=4.62, we get f(1.53)=1.01(4.62+1.715)(4.620.173)(4.621.415)(4.624.702)

=1.01(6.335)(4.447)(3.205)(0.082)

=7.478

Therefore, the value of f(1.53) obtained by this method is -7.478.

c) Percentage error δ is given by δ=|νAνEνE|100% Here νA is the actual value and νE is the expected value which is -7.60787 in this case. For the value obtained in part (a), the percentage error is δa=|7.45+7.607877.60787|100%
