Advanced Math - Secant Method
Solve f(x) = x3- 2x - 5 using secant method correct up to 3 decimal places.
You may also use excel for the iteration, and handwritten solutions.
An example is given in the attached picture below:

Find the root of f(x) = x7 - 1000
Solution
The detailed explanation of the solution is in the video.
For the initial iteration,
Let's pick x₁ = 2 and x2 = 3
In
x3 = 3
x-1000
(-1000)-7

2.712552
2.679741
2.682598
2.682696
2.682696
We obtain the initial value of x3 as 2.4235065565809. We will continue with the iteration if the value of x is the same given the specified
number of precision or after a given number of iteration. After 9 iterations, our value of x is 2.6826957952447.

Transcribed Image Text:Concept
Let xo and X₁ are the two initial approximation for the roots of f(x) =0 and f(x₁) respectively are their
function values. X2 is the part of intersection of x-axis and the line-joining the points (xo, f(xo)) and (x₁, f(x1))
then x2 is closer than xo and X₁.
The equation relating to Xo, X₁ and x2 is found by considering the slope m.
f(xn)
f(an)-f(n-1)
an-n-1
Xn+1 = Xn
With the Secant Method, they may not bracket the root and calculates the x2 by the same formula as
Regula-Falsi Method but proceeds to the next iteration without bothering about any root bracketing.
Let us discuss further in an example.
