Consider the following equation. Use three (3) decimal places for all work and answers below. (Recommended time: 10 min). $e^x = x^2$ (a) What is the solution estimate predicted by one iteration of the Newton-Raphson method using $x_0 = -1.0$? (b) What is the solution estimate predicted with a second iteration of the Newton-Raphson method? (c) What is the approximate relative percent error for the second iteration?

Use the bisection method for each of the following equations to determine the interval of solutions and estimate the number of iterations necessary to obtain an approximation accurate to within 10^-3. (a) f1(x) = (x + 1)(x - 2)((x + 3)^3) (b) f2(x) = x^3 - e^(2x) - 3x + 4 (c) f3(x) = ((e^x)/3)^(1/2) - x (d) f4(x) = e^x - cos(x - 2) - 2 (e) f5(x) = x + 1 - 2sin(πx)

Determine the real root of f(x)= 5x^3-5x^2+6x-2: (a) Graphically (b) Using bisection to locate the root. Employ initial guesses of xi=0 and xu=1 and iterate until the estimate error ea falls below a level of es=10% What I need help with is performing 3 iterations of the Bisection Method by hand. Specify the approximate root for each iteration .
