Question 1

Use Newton's Method to find the roots of the equation cos x = x.
◦ 0.739204
◦ 0.739335
◦ 0.739085
◦ 0.739185
◦ 0.739161

Question 2

Suppose Newton's Method applied to  f(x) = x1/3  is used to "find" the root of the equation  x1/3 = 0 with initial guess  x0 = r ≠ 0. What result does the first iteration of the method yield? The second iteration? The nth iteration? Why do these not converge to the obvious root  x = 0  no matter how close the initial guess  r  was to that root?
