Differential Equation Graphing 444
By moving the trace cursor to trace each solution to
xc = 40
, you can find that:
• The exact solution (
y1
) is 85.8486, rounded to six digits.
• The
RK
solution (
Plot 1
) is 85.8952.
• The
Euler
solution (
Plot 2
) is 85.6527.
You can also use the
Data/Matrix Editor
to open the errorlog data variable and scroll to
time = 40
.
