Consider the IVPs: 
        (A)  y'+2y = 1,   0<t<1 ,  y(0)=2.
        (B)  y' = y(1-y), 0<t<1 ,  y(0)=1/2.

1. For each one, do the following:
  a. Find the exact solution y(t) and evaluate it at t=1.
  b. Apply Euler's method with  Δt=1/4  to find Y4 ≈ y(1).
     Make a table of tn, Yn for n=0,1,2,3,4.
  c. Find the error at t=1.

2. Euler's method is obtained by approximating y'(tn) by a forward finite difference.
   Use the backward difference approximation to y'(tn+1) to derive the 
   Backward Euler Method:   Yn+1 = Yn + Δt f(tn+1, Yn+1) , n=0,1,2,...  

   Note that now the unknown Yn+1 appears inside f(.,.), so this equation needs to be 
   solved for Yn+1 at each time-step!!! whence it is also called Implicit Euler Method.
   For the simple ODEs (A), (B) above, the updating equation can be solved by hand, 
   but in general a root-finder (like Newton-Raphson) is needed.
   This scheme is also 1st order, but it has better stability properties than Explicit Euler.

   For each IVP problem (A), (B), do the following:
  a. Apply the Backward Euler Method with  Δt=1/4  to find Y4 ≈ y(1).
  b. Find the error at t=1 and compare with Explicit Euler.


3. Use the centered difference approximation to y'(tn) to derive the so called 
   Midpoint Method:   Yn+1 = Yn-1 + 2 Δt f(tn, Yn) , n=1,2,... 
 
   Note that this requires both Yn-1 and Yn to produce Yn+1.  It is a 2-step method, 
   hence not self-starting (need Y0 and Y1 before it can be applied), 
   so some single-step method (like Euler) must be used to start it off.
   However, it has the advantage of being a 2nd order method, and explicit.
 
   For each IVP problem (A), (B), do the following:
  a. Apply the Midpoint Method with  Δt=1/4  to find Y4 ≈ y(1).
  b. Find the error at t=1 and compare with Explicit Euler and with Implicit Euler.
     Which method seems to be doing better in this case ?

Patio Iron makes wrought iron outdoor dining tables, chairs, and stools. Each table uses 8 feet of a standard width wrought iron, 2 hours of labor for cutting and assembly, and 2 hours of labor for detail and finishing work. Each chair uses 6 feet of the wrought iron, 2 hours of cutting and assembly labor, and 1.5 hours of detail and finishing labor. Each stool uses 1 foot of the wrought iron, 1.5 hours for cutting and assembly, and 0.5 hour for detail and finishing work, and the daily demand for stools is at most 10. Each day Patio Iron has available at most 154 feet of wrought iron, 55 hours for cutting and assembly, and 50 hours for detail and finishing. If the profits are $60 for each dining table, $48 for each chair, and $36 for each stool, how many of each item should be made each day to maximize profit?
