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 forest fire leaves behind an area of grass burned in an expanding circular pattern. If the radius of the circle of burning grass is increasing with time according to the formula r(t)=2t+1 , express the area burned as a function of time, t (minutes).arrow_forwardA 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_forward
