Answer:
$880
Step-by-step explanation:
If r is the rent charged, then the number of $40 increments of increase will be ...
(r -800)/40
and the number of occupied apartments will be ...
120 -5(r -800)/40
The gross income (g) will be the number of apartments times the rent charged, or ...
g = r×(120 -5(r -800)/40) = (1/8)r(1760 -r)
The equation describes a parabola with zeros at r=0 and r=1760. The vertex will be on the line of symmetry, halfway between those zeros. The maximum gross income will be had when the rent is 1760/2 = 880.
$880 should be charged for rent to maximize gross income.

Answer:
0.8989
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Newton's Raphson approximation formula.
Xn+1 = Xn - f(Xn)/f'(Xn)
Given f(x) = x³-2x+2
f'(x) = 3x²-2
If the initial value X1 = 2
X2 = X1 - f(X1)/f'(X1)
X2 = 2 - f(2)/f'(2)
f(2) = 2³-2(2)+2
f(2) = 8-4+2
f(2) = 6
f'(2) = 3(2)²-2
f'(2) = 10
X2 = 2- 6/10
X2 = 14/10
X2 = 1.4
X3 = X2 - f(X2)/f'(X2)
X3 = 1.4 - f(1.4)/f'(1.4)
f(1.4) = 1.4³-2(1.4)+2
f(1.4) = 2.744-2.8+2
f(1.4) = 1.944
f'(1.4) = 3(1.4)²-2
f'(1.4) = 3.880
X3 = 1.4- 1.944/3.880
X3 = 1.4 - 0.5010
X3 = 0.8989
Hence the value of X3 is 0.8989
