6. a) Show that the equation 𝑥 3 − 5𝑥 + 1 = 0 has a real root which lies between 𝑥 = 0 and 𝑥 =
1. [2 marks]
b) Show that the iterative formula which derived from the above equation can be written in the

form 𝑥𝑛+1 = 3√5𝑥𝑛 − 1 or 𝑥𝑛+1 = 5 (𝑥𝑛3 + 1). [2 marks]
Using 𝑥0 = 0.5, show that only one of these formula will enable you to find a root and
determine this root correct to four decimal places. [7 marks]
