The point P, shown in Figure 2, is a local maximum point on the curve. Using calculus and the sketch in Figure 2, (a) find the x coordinate of P, giving your answer to 3 significant figures. (4) The curve crosses the x-axis at x = α , as shown in Figure 2. Given that, to 3 decimal places, f(4) = 4.274 and f(5) = −1.212 (b) explain why α must lie in the interval [4, 5] (1) (c) Taking x0 = 5 as a first approximation to α, apply the Newton-Raphson method once to f(x) to obtain a second approximation to α. Show your method and give your answer to 3 significant figures.
