Each equation has one real root Use Newtons Method to approx
Each equation has one real root. Use Newton’s Method to approximate the root to eight correct decimal places. (a) x5 + x = 1 (b) sin x = 6x + 5 (c) ln x + x2 = 3
**MUST BE DONE IN MATLABE AND SHOW CODE
Solution
(a)
root = 0.754877666246693
Matlab code:
format long;
x=5;
h = (x^5 + x -1) /(5*(x^4) + 1 );
i = 1;
while(abs(h) >= 0.00000001)
h = (x^5 + x -1) /(5*(x^4) + 1 );
x = x - h;
i=i+1;
end
x
(b) root = -0.970898923504256
Matlab code:
format long;
x=5;
h = (sin(x) - 6*x - 5) /(cos(x) -6 );
i = 1;
while(abs(h) >= 0.00000001)
h = (sin(x) - 6*x - 5) /(cos(x) -6 );
x = x - h;
i=i+1;
end
x
c) root = 1.592142937058094
Matlab code:
format long;
x=5;
h = (log(x) + x^2 - 3) /((1/x) + 2*x );
i = 1;
while(abs(h) >= 0.00000001)
h = (log(x) + x^2 - 3) /((1/x) + 2*x );
x = x - h;
i=i+1;
end
x
