Show that each of the following have a solution for x:1. The intersection of (between 1.8 and 1.9)
and2. The intersection of (between 3.6 and 3.7)
and
3. The equation (between 0.4 and 0.5)

Iteration
.Use iteration to approximate solutions
to difficult equations.
Begin to understand convergence and staircase and cobweb diagrams.

The 1st approximate solution lies anywhere between the bounds. The next stage is to improve this estimate.

If we continue to iterate we eventually get

Although Iβve only written down 6 decimal places, the calculator is using the greatest possible accuracy.
We get

Since the answer is correct to 6 decimal places, the exact value of must be within

Tip: The index equals the number of d.ps. in the answer.

IterationSUMMARY To find an approximation to a solution ( or root ) of an equation: Find a 1st approximation, often by finding
integer bounds for the solution. Let this be x0 .
Rearrange the equation into the form )(xgx Write the arrangement as an iterative
formula:)(1 nn xgx
Key x0 into a calculator and ENTER. Key the r.h.s. of the formula into the
calculator, replacing x with ANS. Press ENTER as many times as required to
get the solution to the specified accuracy.
