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

Answer: choice D 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Events A and B are independent if the equation P(A∩B) = P(A) · P(B) holds true.

so

1/6=1/3*p(A)

p(A)=1/2

Factorise the following.​
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i). \frac{48a^3}{6a}=\frac{6\times 8\times a\times a^2}{6a}

          =\frac{6a}{6a}\times 8a^2

          = 8a²

ii). \frac{72a^3b^4c^5}{8ab^2c^3} = \frac{8\times 9\times a\times a^2\times b^2\times b^2\times c^2\times c^3}{8ab^2c^3}

                = \frac{8ab^2c^3}{8ab^2c^3}\times 9a^2b^2c^2

                = 9a²b²c²
