Sir, in Example 3, another g(x) could've been obtained using the ln x term of the f(x) as follows: g(x) -> 2 - ln x = 0 g(x) -> ln x = 2 g(x) -> x = e^2 g'(x) = 0 < 1, so x (subscript n) would converge However, when we start the iterations using x (subscript n) = g (x subscript (n-1)), we obtain the same constant e^2 in every iteration, which does not lead us to the desired root.

I see, I guess you omitted something, From x + In(x) - 2 = 0 Using In(x), x = e^(2-x) Derivative w.r.t.x will be -e^(2-x) putting in xo considering the absolute value, you will get 1.6487 which is not less than 1 at xo hence it will not converge

Oh yes, sir. Sorry, I missed that 2. My bad! I understood it now. Thanks a lot for clarifying it.

so what is the criteria for choosing those numbers to put in the equation to get the interval[a,b]. and can they be different from person to person🙏
@SkanCityAcademy_SirJohn2 ай бұрын
the rule is that f(a) < 0, and f(b) > 0, yes yours can be different from others, but the closer the interval, the closer and more accurate the iterated value

Excuse me, but 2cos(1.9) is greater than 1 in example 1.

It's because your calculator was in the degree mode. Kindly put your calculator in the radian mode, and you will have an absolute value of 0.6465.... which is less than 1

It's supposed to be radians, maybe the question he gave in class requires that it's be solved in degrees.
