Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists

Use ode23 to solve the following ODE from t = 0 to 4:
$\frac{d y}{d t}=10 e^{-(t-2)^2 /\left[2(0.075)^2\right]}-0.6 y$
where y(0) = 0.5. Obtain solutions for the default ( $10^{–3}$ ) and for a more stringent ( $10^{–4}$ ) relative error tolerance.
