Answer:

A. x = 11/16

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose here, it is convenient to rearrange the equation to f(x) -g(x) = 0. We know the root will be in the interval [0, 1] because (f-g)(0) = -3 and (f-g)(1) = +3. At each iteration, we evaluate (f-g)(x) at the midpoint of the interval to see which of the interval end points can be moved and still bracket the root.

Using the bisection method starting with the interval [0, 1] we find f(1/2)-g(1/2) < 0, so we can move the interval limits to [1/2, 1].

For the next iteration, we find f(3/4) -g(3/4) > 0, so we can move the interval limits to [1/2, 3/4].

For the third iteration, we find f(5/8) -g(5/8) < 0, so we can move the interval limits to [5/8, 3/4].

Then the root is approximately the middle of that interval:

x ≈ (5/8 +3/4)/2 = 11/16

_____

This value of x is 0.6875. The root is closer to 0.639802004233. The bisection method takes about 3 iterations for each decimal place of accuracy. Other methods can nearly double the number of accurate decimal places on each iteration.

pe ling needs 2 yards of fabric for a craft project. she has 3 feet already.how many niches of fabric does she still need?
spin [16.1K]
2yards= 72 inches
72 inches= 6 feet

so now that you know that, you know that she needs 6 feet and already has 3 feet. so she just needs 3 feet more. but they are asking for the answer to be in inches. 

3 feet= 36 inches
your answer in 36 inches
