Consider the function f(x) = x4 - x³ - x²-4 on the interval [1,9]. If we apply bisection method to find the root of the said function, how many iterations are needed to arrive at the exact root? (xo is the first iteration, x₁ is the second iteration, x₂ is the third iteration, etc.)

Consider the function f(x) = x² − x³ − x² - 4 on the interval [1,9]. If we apply bisection
method to find the root of the said function, how many iterations are needed to arrive at the
exact root? (xo is the first iteration, x₁ is the second iteration, x₂ is the third iteration, etc.)
