To find relative extreme values of a function f(x), we first find all critical numbers of f. Assuming f and f' are continuous, then all critical values of f satisfy f'(x) = 0. a.) Adapt Newton's method to search for the critical numbers of f(x) by providing g(x) in the fixed point scheme n+1 = g(xn). b.) Write a code that implements your adapted Newton's method scheme from above to find the critical number and the absolute minimum value to function f(x) = e+e-ª-3x+8.
