Q:

What are the approximate values of the non-integral roots of the polynomial equation? x4 βˆ’ 4x3 = 6x2 βˆ’ 12x

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer: Β  x β‰ˆ 3.28547335182Step-by-step explanation:We assume your polynomial is supposed to be ... Β  [tex]x^4-4x^3+6x^2-12x[/tex]The only integral root is x=0._____The approximate value of the non-integral root can be found by graphing to be 3.285. This value can be refined using Newton's Method iteration to give ...
