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

Nadya [2.5K]

Based on the data, the median time it takes players to complete the game is 1148 minutes.

<h3>What is the median?</h3>

It is the mathematical value that is the middle when values are sorted.

<h3>How to find the median time?</h3>
  • Organize the values

457 - 548- 866 - 952 - 976 - 1037 - 1148 - 1235 - 1245- 1431-1486 - 1759 - 1864

Identify the value of the middle

Considering there are 13 values, the value of the middle is the value number 7 or 1148.

Note: This question is incomplete because the data is missing, below I attached the missing section,
