Short Answer

Determine the recursive formulas for the Taylor method of order 4 for the initial value problem y'=x-y,y(0)=0.

yn+1=yn+h(xn-yn)+(h22-h36+h424)(1-xn+yn)

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Find the value of f2(x,y)

Here y'=x-y,y(0)=0

Apply the chain rule.

f2(x,y)=fx(x,y)+fy(x,y)f(x,y)

Since f(x,y)=x-y

fx(x,y)=1fy(x,y)=-1

So, the equation is f2(x,y)=1-x+y

Step 2: Evaluate the values of f2(x,y) and f4(x,y)

Apply the same procedure as step 1

f3(x,y)=-1+x-yf4(x,y)=1-x+y

Step 3: Apply the recursive formulas for order 4

The recursive formula is

xn+1=xn+hyn+1=yn+hf(xn+yn)+h22!f2(xn+yn)+.....hpp!fp(xn+yn)

xn+1=xn+hyn+1=yn+h(xn-yn)+h22-h36+h424(1-xn+yn)

Where starting points are xo=0,y0=0.

Hence the solution is role="math" localid="1664316175651" yn+1=yn+h(xn-yn)+(h22-h36+h424)(1-xn+yn)
