Apply Newton’s method to estimate the solution of x3 − x − 1 = 0 by taking x1 = 1 and finding the least n such that xn and xn +

ss7ja [257]

Solution :

Given

$f(x)=x^3-x-1, x_1=1$

$f'(x)=3x^2-1$

Let the initial approximation is $x_1 =1$

So by Newton's method, we get

$x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)},n=1,2,...$

$x_2=x_1-\frac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)}=1-\frac{1^3-1-1}{3(1)^2-1}=1.5$

$x_3=1.5-\frac{(1.5)^3-1.5-1}{3(1.5)^2-1}=1.34782608$

$x_4=1.34782608-\frac{(1.34782608)^3-1.34782608-1}{3(1.34782608)^2-1}=1.32520039$

$x_5=1.32520039-\frac{(1.32520039)^3-1.32520039-1}{3(1.32520039)^2-1}=1.32471817$

$x_6=1.32471817-\frac{(1.32471817)^3-1.32471817-1}{3(1.32471817)^2-1}=1.32471795$

$x_5 \approx x_6$ are identical up to eight decimal places.

The approximate real root is x ≈ 1.32471795

∴ x = 1.32471795

A gift shop sells 140 wind chimes per month at $90 each. The owners estimate that for each $5 increase in price, they will sell

guapka [62]

Answer: $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Te new price will be 90 + 5x, if the price increases "x" times

The number of wind chimes sold per month will become 140 - 7x

$\begin{aligned}&\text {Revenue, } \mathrm{R}(\mathrm{x})=(90+5 \mathrm{x})(140-7 \mathrm{x}) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=5(140-7 x)-7(90+5 x) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=700-35 x-630-35 x \\&R^{\prime}(x)=70-70 x=0 \\&70 x=70 \\&x=1\end{aligned}$

Therefore, if the price becomes (90 + 5(1)) = $95 per wind chime, then the revenue will be maximum
