Let f(x) = x 3 x 2 1. a. Use your graphing utility to graph
Question:
Let f(x) = x3 − x2 − 1.
a. Use your graphing utility to graph f(x). Note that there is only one root located between 1 and 2. Use ZOOM and TRACE or other utility features to find the root.
b. Using x0 = 1, estimate the root by applying Newton’s method until two consecutive approximations agree to four decimal places.
