Consider the function f(x) = cos x − 3x + 1. Since ƒ (0)ƒ (=) < 0, ƒ (x) has a root in [o,]. If we use secant method, with x₁ = 0.5 and x₁ = 0.6, to estimate the root of f(x) = cos x - 3x + 1, what is x, such that x,, estimates the root of f(x) = cos x - 3x + 1 to six significant digits? (Answer must be in 8 decimal places)
