Question: Please tell me how to use Newton's Method to approximate the root of f ( x ) = x 3 5 x 2 + 5

Please tell me how to use Newton's Method to approximate the root off(x)=x35x2+5x1 near x=4 to decimal places

*******************************************************************************

f(x)=3x210x+5

x1=4

x2 =x1 -f(x1) / f'(x1) ---> f(x)= 3

f' (x) =13 ---> x2= 3/ 13= 2.7 ----> continue to x3 by x2 = 2.7

*********************************************************************************

I'm not sure if correct way to calculate the problem. I tried to calculate it from x2 to x5, but the answer is incorrect. (The answer suppose to found in x4 but it didn't ) .

Please tell me how to find the answer.
