Transcribed Image Text:IV. Root-finding algorithms
8. Refer to the Pseudocode for Bisection Method. Suppose we want to
use Bisection method to find the root of f(x)%3D3X-7
a. Among the following pairs of input for x0 and x1, choose the correct
initial guess:
(x0=-1, x1=1), (x0=1, x1=2), (x=1, x1=3), (x0=3, x1=4).
b. Use the correct input to calculate x2.
c. Calculate f(x2).
d. According to the value of f(x2), should we replace x0 with x2, or
replace x1 with x2?
Pseudocode for Bisection Method
1. Start
2. Define function f(x)
3. Input
a. Lower and Upper guesses x0 and x1
b. tolerable error e
4. If f(xQ)F(x1) > 0
print "Incorrect initial guesses"
goto 3
End If
5. Do
x2 = (x0+x1)/2
If f(x0)*f(x2) < 0
x1 = x2
Else
x0 = x2
End If
while abs(f(x2)) > e
6. Print root as x2
7. Stop
