1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Use Newton's method to estimate the requested solution of the equation. Start with given value of x0 and give x2 as the estimated solution. 2. Relevant equations x0 = 2 ( this is the first guess numb. you start with) the equation you use is.... x = x(guuess #) - f(xg)/f'(xg) f(x) = x^4 -6x +3 and f'(x) = 4(x)^3 -6 3. The attempt at a solution I have done the entire problem. several times. when x ='s 2, I got 1. 731 when x ='s 1.731 I got 1.623 when x ='s 1.623 I got 1.604 for my final answer. perhaps this answer is correct , and the multiple choice answer is wrong. If you are familiar with newtons method- then this won't take too long for you. You just plug and chug.
