Expert Solution
Step 1: Apply the definition of bisection method.

Let open square brackets a subscript 0 comma b subscript 0 close square brackets be the initial interval of the bisection method.

Use the following formulae, to obtain the solution.

  • Absolute error with accuracy epsilon is given by the formula fraction numerator b subscript 0 minus a subscript 0 over denominator 2 to the power of n end fraction less or equal than epsilon.
  • Relative error with accuracy epsilon is given by the formula 1 over 2 to the power of n plus 1 end exponent open vertical bar fraction numerator b subscript 0 minus a subscript 0 over denominator a subscript 0 end fraction close vertical bar less or equal than epsilon.
