Consider the function f(x) = x 5 + 4x 4 + x 3 - 10x 2 -

Question:

Consider the function f(x) = x5 + 4x4 + x3 - 10x2 - 4x + 8, which has zeros at x = 1 and x = -2. Apply Newton’s method to this function with initial approximations of x0 = -1, x0 = -0.2, x0 = 0.2, and x0 = 2. Discuss and compare the results of the calculations.
