Use one application of Newtons method to find a second approximation for[/FONT][FONT=&quot] α.

2.i) Show the function g(x)=x^2-loge(x+1) has a zero between 0.7 and 0.9

ii) use the method of halving the interval to find an approximation to this zero of g(x).

i got plenty more after these.

First of all, in 1) you don't have the function concerned...lol

2)
i) Find g(0.7) and g(0.9) and they should have opposite signs. Since g(x) is continuous in 0.7 < x < 0.9 then it should cross the x-axis at some point.

ii) It wasn't specified how many times you halve the interval, so I guess you first find g(0.8) and determine whether the sign change occurs between 0.7 and 0.8 or 0.8 and 0.9 and repeat this until you can narrow down whether it is 0.7, 0.8 or 0.9 to 1 decimal place.

Did you even try????

Just use the formula for Newtons method.

Second one, standard question, see any 3 unit text for an example.

If you cant do these, drop extension 1[/FONT]

i can and i have done them, there of the past hsc therefore i don't have answers, how am i meant to know if i'm doing them right? so i'm asking around to get different sets of answers.

Scrap Q.1. i don't have it anymore.

did u feel confident with the answer, if i feel confident i dnt bother checking the answer. maybe u should buy success one, they have the answers

no i obviously don't feel confident with my answers to be posting the Qs. success one is on back order

maybe u should get more famliar/confident with questions from a text book, then tackle the past HSC's

have a go at these in the meantime, past HSC questions sorted by topic WITH answers

thanks all for the info and the links vds700.
