Chapter6,Problem2.
Determine the highest real root of
f x 2 x 3 11.7 x 2 17.7 x 5
(a)Graphically.
(b)Fixed-point iteration method (three iterations, x0 3 ). Note: Make certain that you
develop a solution that converges on the root.
(c) Newton-Raphson method (three iterations, x0 3 ).
(d)Secant method (three iterations, x 1 3 , x0 4 ).
(e) Modified secant method (three iterations, x0 3 , 0.01 ).
Compute the approximate percent relative errors for your solutions.
Chapter 6, Solution 2.
(a) Graphical

Root 3.58
(b) Fixed point
The equation can be solved in numerous ways. A simple way that converges is to
solve for the x that is not raised to a power to yield
