    Polynomial - Newton's Method

    What about say y=x^(1/3). Isnt there some restriction on how the gradient of the tangent vs the gradient of the graph? I.e. at some pts on the graph, near the root, im sure it wont acquire better estimate. Note: its due to tangent reaching a pt on the x axis, that is further away from the...

    I dont get this question at all. Prove that if the ratio \frac{z-1}{z-i} \\ is purely imaginary, the point z lies on the circle whose centre is at the point 1/2(1+i) and whose radius is 1/sqrt 2 Shouldnt it it mean the ratio \frac{z-1}{z-i} \\ = Z (upper case) (since z-1/z-i is a complex...

    Um, sorry, its 0.18. You can use whatever. I just didnt wanna type it again and again so i juts used a sub. Yea i get your point addikaye03. My fault. Im too lazy and careless, unlike you:D.

    Graph of the Derivative

    Graph is concaving down. f''(x)<0 = the slope of f'(x) <0 Stationary Pts of f(x). When f'(x) = 0, there is a turning pt. If it is a decreasing from right to left, then there is a gradient at right and negative gradient at left. A pt of inflexion. When f''(x) = 0 a pt of inflexion exist...

    Polynomial Proof

    Im referring to second question. Prove E(x)>0 for all real x. Un said if all t.p laid above y, then it is true. But thats not as you said. If only their E"(x)>0, then it would be the case.
