Determine a negative root of the following polynomial using the Newton-Raphson method. Employ an initial guess of x0 = (-5) and perform iterations until the approximate error becomes less than 0.05%. Show 5 digits after the decimal point for the estimated root. Show your work to get full credit. f(x) = 4x^3 + 6x^2 - 27x - 15

Use fixed-point iteration and the Newton-Raphson method to determine a root of f(x) if X₀ = 5. f(x) = -0.9x² + 1.7x + 2.5. Perform the computation until the approximate error is less than 0.01%. Also, perform an error check of your final answer.

Use (a) fixed-point iteration and (b) the Newton-Raphson method to determine a root of f(x) = -x^2 + 1.8x + 2.5 using x_0 = 5. Perform the computational until ε_a is less than ε_s = 0.05% Also perform an error check of your final answer.
