Finding roots with Newton’s method For the given function f and initial approximation x0 use Newton’s method to approximate a root of f. Stop calculating approximations when two successive approximations agree to five digits to the right of the decimal point after rounding. Show your work by making a table similar to that in Example 1.

- A bottle of soda with a temperature of 71 Fahrenheit was taken off a shelf and placed ina refrigerator with an internal temperature of 35 .After ten minutes, the internal temperature of thesoda was 63F . Use Newton’s Law of cooling towrite a formula that models this situation. To thenearest degree, what will the temperature of thesoda be after one hour?arrow_forwardUse your schools library, the Internet, or some other reference source to find real-life applications of approximations of functions.arrow_forward
