3) 1.5, 2.5, 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
The function that we have in this problem is
We want to find the first 3 iterations.
The initial value is:
x = 2
To find the value of the 1st iteration, we just substitute this value into the expression of the function, and we get:
The to find the value of the 2nd iteration, we just substitute this value into the expression of the function, and we get:
Finally, the 3rd iteraction is given by:
2)
Here in this problem the function that we have to use is
The initial value is
So the first iteration is given by
To find the 2nd iteration, we substitute this value into g(x) again:
Finally, to find the 3rd iteration, we substitute this value into g(x) again:
3)
The function in this problem is
The initial value is
x = 0.5
So, the first iteration is:
The second iteration is given by
Finally, the 3rd iteration is
Synthetic division yields
-3 | 1 5 4 -6
. | -3 -6 6
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
. | 1 2 -2 0
which translates to
with remainder 0. Now by the quadratic formula,
and so
