Answer:
<em>x=25/16</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Approximate Roots of Functions:</u>
We are required to find the root of

Let's construct a function

Reducing:

The equation will have a solution when f(x)=0. We'll start from the approximate crossing point given in the graph (x=1.5)

We'll move up on x=1.52

We are closer to the solution, let's try some more up

This value x=1.54 is close enough to the solution of the original equation
From the options given,
is the closest to our solution

The method that is not correct is brandon's method.
1 sum
because of the commutative property of addition
a+b=b+a
we can furthuer expand it
a+b+c=a+c+b=b+a+c=b+c+a=c+b+a=c+a+b
same sum
you can test it with numbers
I don’t know
They are not the same
