Newton's Method
Approximate the value specified to three decimal places using Newton's Method. Use a plot to choose an initial guess. Negative root of f(x) = x 5 - 20x + 10
Use Newton's method to find an approximate root (accurate to six decimal places). Sketch the graph and explain how you determined your initial guess. $$x^{5}+3 x^{3}+x-1=0$$
