Determine the real root of the equation f(x)= ln(x - 2) - 1 until you reach an approximate error of less than 10%. Use initial estimates of xl = 3.0 and xu = 6.0. It must be done by: a) Bisection Method b) False position c) Evaluate the results by comparing both methods.

Determine the real roots of $f(x)=-0.5 x^{2}+2.5 x+4.5$ (a) Graphically. (b) Using the quadratic formula. (c) Using three iterations of the bisection method to determine the highest root. Employ initial guesses of $x_{l}=5$ and $x_{u}=10$ Compute the estimated error $\varepsilon_{a}$ and the true error $\varepsilon_{t}$ after each iteration.
