Question: Problem 7 . ( 2 5 pt ) The concentration of pollutant bacteria c in a lake decreases according to where, c ( t )

Problem 7.(25pt)
The concentration of pollutant bacteria c in a lake decreases according to
where,
c(t)=75e-1.5t+20e-0.075t
t= time
7.1. Newton-Raphson Method (30pt)
Determine the time required for the bacteria concentration (c) to be reduced to 9 using
the Newton-Raphson Method with an initial guess of t=6 and a stopping criterion of
0.5%.
t0=6
s=0.5%
True root (tr) of the problem is given.
tr=10.6467822
Compute relative approximate percentage error (a,i) and true error (Et,i) in each
iteration.
