Graph:
The plot can be easily made with the help of excel as shown below,
Step 1. First put the data in the excel as shown below,
Step 2. Now click on insert and then scatter plot.
Thus, the scatter plot is,
Interpretation:
From the plot, this can be interpreted that the dynamic viscosity of water decreases as the temperature increases.

Formula used:
The zero-order Newton’s interpolation formula:
The first-order Newton’s interpolation formula:
The second- order Newton’s interpolating polynomial is given by,
The n th-order Newton’s interpolating polynomial is given by,
Where,
The first finite divided difference is,
And, the n th finite divided difference is,
Calculation:
To solve for
Assume
First, order the provided value as close to 7.5 as below,
Therefore,
And,
The first divided difference is,
Thus, the first degree polynomial value can be calculated as,
Put
Solve for other values as,
And,
Similarly,
The second divided difference is,
Thus, the second degree polynomial value can be calculated as,
Put
And,
The third divided difference is,
Thus, the third degree polynomial value can be calculated as,
Put this in above equation,
Therefore,
And, the error is calculated as,
Similarly the other dividend can be calculated as shown above,
Therefore, the difference table can be summarized for
Order | Error | |
0 | ||
1 | ||
2 | ||
3 | ||
4 | ||
5 |
Since the minimum error for order four, therefore, it can be concluded that the value of
