We will discuss these two approximation methods today, and we'll save approximation with higher degree polynomials for Calculus 2.\n\nOf course, it's kind of silly to do linear or quadratic ...

The circumference of a sphere is measured to be 24 cm, with a possible error of 0.25 cm. Use the differential \(dV\) to estimate the maximum error in the calculated ...

In this paper, we propose a method for finding the best piecewise linearization of nonlinear functions. For this aim, we try to obtain the best approximation of a nonlinear function as a piecewise ...

Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, Vol. 223 (Oct., 1976), pp. 103-131 (29 pages) This paper demonstrates a Remez exchange algorithm applicable to approximation of real-valued ...

Two methods for point and interval estimation of relative risk for log-linear exposure-response relations in meta-analyses of published ordinal categorical exposure-response data have been proposed.
