Answer:

  (a)   -3/4

  (b)  -0.75

  (c)  -0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a bit hard to tell what constitutes an "iteration" when using the bisection method to approximate a polynomial root. For the purpose here, we'll say one iteration consists of ...

  • evaluating the function at the midpoint of the bracketing interval
  • choosing a smaller bracketing interval
  • identifying the x-value known to be closest to the solution

Thus, the result of the iteration consists of a bracketing interval and the choice of one of the interval's ends as the solution approximation.

__

(a) We observe that the graphs intersect in the interval (-1, 0). For the first iteration, we evaluate f(x)-g(x) at x=-1/2. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-1, -1/2). The x-value closest to the root is x=-1/2.

For the second iteration, we evaluate the function f(x)-g(x) at x=-3/4. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-1, -3/4). The x-value closest to the root is x=-3/4.

For the third iteration, we evaluate the function f(x)-g(x) at x=-7/8. This tells us the solution is in the interval (-7/8, -3/4). The x-value closest to the root is x=-3/4.

__

(b) The graph tells us the solution is approximately 0.7549. Rounded to 2 decimal places, the solution is approximately 0.75.

__

(c) The above solution found after 3 iterations rounded to 2 decimal places is exactly 0.75.

__

See the attached table for function values.

<em>Comment on bisection iteration</em>

Since you cut the interval containing the root in half with each iteration, you gain approximately one decimal place for each 3 iterations. When the function value is very nearly zero at one of the interval endpoints, it can take many more iterations to achieve a better result.

Here, it takes 4 more iterations before an x-value becomes closer to the solution (x≈-97/128). And it takes one more iteration to move the end of the interval away from -3/4. After these 5 more iterations (8 total), the solution is known to lie in the interval (-97/128, -193/256). The corresponding solution approximation is -193/256. It is still only correct to 2 decimal places.

A fruit bowl contains apples, oranges, and bananas. The radius of one of the oranges is 1.3 inches. What is the approximate volu
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is as follows: (4/3) * (pi) * (radius cubed)

To solve this problem, we can substitute the given value for the radius and for pi.

Volume = (4/3) * (3.14) * (2.197)

Volume = 9.1981...
