Question: Use (a) the Newton-Raphson method and (b) the modified secant method ( = 0.05) to determine a root of f(x) = x 5 16.05x

Use (a) the Newton-Raphson method and (b) the modified secant method (δ = 0.05) to determine a root of f(x) = x− 16.05x+ 88.75x− 192.0375x2 + 116.35x + 31.6875 using an initial guess of x = 0.5825 and ε= 0.01%. Explain your results.
