Question:

Approximate the root of f(x) = x10 at x = 0 using Newton’s method with an initial approximation of x0 = 0.5. Make a table showing the first 10 approximations, the error in these approximations (which is |xn - 0| = |xn|), and the residual of these approximations (which is f(xn)). Comment on the relative size of the errors and the residuals and give an explanation.
