4. Let f(x)=-3x - x + 2x +11. (a) Show that the equation f(x)=0 has a unique root a in (-2,-1]. (b) Find the Newton's iterative formula for solving the equation f(x)= 0. [Give the formula in the form , where g(x-1) and h(x...) are polynomial functions.) h(x) (e) Show that the sequence obtained by the iterative formula in (b) will converge to a for any initial guess x, in (-2,-1). (d) Hence, with x, =-1.5, estimate the value of a correct to 4 decimal places. (25 marks)
