Answer:

307 Meters

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{62}{100} = 190.5\\
Cross multiply:

62w = 100(190.5)

Multiply 100 by 190.5:

62w = 19,050

Solve for w:

Divide both sides by 19,050 to isolate the variable and get the answer

19,050/62 = 307.25.....

~ After rounding to the nearest percent, the answer is 307$

Use Newton's method with initial approximation x1 = 1 to find x2, the second approximation to the root of the equation x4 − x −

drek231 [11]

Answer:

$x_{2} = 0.0000$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the Newton's method is:

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{f(x_{i})}{f'(x_{i})}$

Where $f' (x_{i})$ is the first derivative of the function evaluated in $x_{i}$ .

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{x_{i}^{4}-x_{i}-3}{4\cdot x_{i}^{3}-1}$

Lastly, the value of $x_{2}$ is determined by replacing $x_{1}$ with its numerical value:

$x_{2} = x_{1} + \frac{x_{1}^{4}-x_{1}-3}{4\cdot x_{1}^{3}-1}$

$x_{2} = 1.0000 + \frac{1.0000^{4}-1.0000-3}{4\cdot (1.0000)^{3}-1}$

$x_{2} = 0.0000$
