In general, real numbers (with infinite decimal expansions) cannot be represented exactly in a computer by floating-point numbers (with finite decimal expansions). Sup-pose floating-point numbers on a particular computer carry an error of at most 10^-16. Estimate the maximum error that is com-mitted in evaluating the following functions. Express the error in absolute and relative (percent) terms.
