Question:
Figure 430 shows the idea. We assume that f is continuous. We compute the x-intercept c0 of the line through (α0,f(α0)), (b0, f(b0)). If f(c0) = 0, we are done. If f(α0)f(c0) < 0 (as in Fig. 430), we set α1= α0, b1= c0 and repeat to get c1, etc. If f(α0)f(c0) > 0, then f(c0)f(b0) < 0 and we set α1= c0, b1= b0, etc.
(a) Show that
and write an algorithm for the method.
(b) Solve x4 = 2, cos x = √x, and x + ln x = 2, with α = 1, b = 2.
