For the following exercises, use both Newton’s method and the secant method to calculate a root for the following equations. Use a calculator or computer to calculate how many iterations of each are needed to reach within three decimal places of the exact answer. For the secant method. use the first guess from Newton's method. 455. f ( x ) = x 2 + 2 x + 1 , x 0 = 1

28. (a) Under what conditions do we say that two random variables X and Y are
independent?
(b) Demonstrate that if X and Y are independent, then it follows that E(XY) =
E(X)E(Y);
(e) Show by a counter example that the converse of (ii) is not necessarily true.

Let G = (V,E) be a 3-connected graph with at least 6 vertices. Let C be a cycle in G
of length 5. We show how to find a longer cycle in G.
(a) Let x be a vertex of G that is not on C. Show that there are three C-paths
Po, P1, P2 that are disjoint except at the shared initial vertex and only intersect
C at their final vertices.
(b) Show that at least two of P0, P1, P2 have final vertices that are adjacent along C.
(c) Combine two of Po, P1, P2 with C to produce a cycle in G that is longer than C.
1. Let X and Y be random variables and suppose that A = F. Prove that
Z XI(A)+YI(A) is a random variable.
