Sketch the Graph Of f(x)=x4+x3f ( x ) = x ^ { 4 } + x - 3

Question 43

Essay

Sketch the graph of f(x)=x4+x3f ( x ) = x ^ { 4 } + x - 3 on the interval [3,3][ - 3,3 ] . Suppose that Newton's method is used to approximate the positive root of f with initial approximation x1=2x _ { 1 } = 2 .(a) On your sketch, draw the tangent lines that you would use to find x2x _ { 2 } and x3x _ { 3 } , and estimate the numerical values of x2x _ { 2 } and x3x _ { 3 } .(b) To approximate the negative root of f, use x1=2x _ { 1 } = - 2 as the starting approximation. As before, draw the tangent lines that you would use to find x2x _ { 2 } and x3x _ { 3 } , and estimate the numerical values of x2x _ { 2 } and x3x _ { 3 } .(c) Suppose that you had used x1=0x _ { 1 } = 0 as the starting point for approximating the negative root. Discuss what would happen.
