Question: (a) Complete the table. (b) Use the table in part (a) to determine the interval in which the solution of the equation 3.2x 5.8 =

(a) Complete the table.
-1 0 1| 2 | 3 | 4 3.2x – 5.8

(b) Use the table in part (a) to determine the interval in which the solution of the equation 3.2x ˆ’ 5.8 = 0 is located. Explain.
(c) Complete the table.

1.5 1.6 1.7 | 1.8 | 1.9 | 2.0 х 3.2x 5.8

(d) Use the table in part (c) to determine the interval in which the solution of the equation 3.2x ˆ’ 5.8 = 0 is located. Explain how to use this procedure to approximate the solution to any desired degree of accuracy.
(e) Use the procedure in parts (a)-(d) to approximate the solution of the equation 0.3(x ˆ’ 1.5) ˆ’ 2 = 0, accurate to two decimal places.

-1 0 1| 2 | 3 | 4 3.2x 5.8 1.5 1.6 1.7 | 1.8 | 1.9 | 2.0 3.2x 5.8
