Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using the Bisection Method, find the root of f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 in the interval [2, 4]. Describe the step-by-step process.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Iterate by checking midpoints and narrowing down the interval until sufficiently small.

Question 2

Evaluate when you would prefer using the Newton-Raphson Method over Fixed-Point Iteration in a real-world scenario.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Assess the need for speed versus simplicity and derivatives.
