What Does It Want Me To Put To 6 Decimal Places class=

Sagot :

They want you to solve the iterative process to a point where the value of x is greater than or equal to 6 decimal places.

What is an iterative process?

An iterative process is a mathematical approach that employs an initial value to build a series of improving estimated solutions for a problem, where the nth-term estimation is generated from the prior ones.

You're required to put the value of x₁ = -1 into the equation:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{n+1}= \dfrac{(x_n)^3-1}{4}}[/tex]

  • where, [tex]x_1 = -1[/tex]

So;

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2}= \dfrac{(-1)^3-1}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2}=-0.5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3}= \dfrac{(-0.5)^3-1}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3}=-0.28125}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{4}=\dfrac{(-0.28125)^3-1}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{4}=-0.2555618286}[/tex]

x₄ ≅ -0.255562  ( to 6 decimal places)
