Suppose you applied an iterative numerical method for finding the roots of a scalar function, f(x) = 0, starting from an initial guess Xo.The error in the approximate solution at the nth step, e, = 1 x - x" ), is given by the following sequence, n (1) (2) (3) (4) en (1)(1/2) (1/4)(1/8) what is the rate of convergence? Select one: a. cubic O b. quadratic O c. linear d. superlinear (but less than quadratic)
