Question:
Use the Newton-Raphson method to determine an improvement on the initial estimate of the root in the following cases.
a. f (x) = ex − 4 from initial estimate x0 = 1.5.
b. g(x) = x3 − 2x − 4 from initial estimate x0 = 2.5.
c. h(x) = ln(x) − 2 from initial estimate x0 = 8.
d. k(x) = ln(x3) − 5 from initial estimate x0 = 5.5.
