Question
**Newton's Method for Approximating Intersections**

In this exercise, we will apply Newton’s Method to approximate the x-values for the intersection points of two graphs, aiming for precision within 0.001. 

**Functions Given:**
- \( f(x) = x^6 \)
- \( g(x) = \cos(x) \)

**Hint:** Define \( h(x) = f(x) - g(x) \).

**Task:**
Use Newton's Method to find values for \( x \approx \) at the points of intersection.

- Smaller value: \[ \boxed{} \]
- Larger value: \[ \boxed{} \]

**Graph Explanation:**

The graph shows two functions:

1. **\( f(x) = x^6 \)** - This function appears as a curve that flattens near the origin and grows steeply, looking like a steep bowl. 

2. **\( g(x) = \cos(x) \)** - This is a periodic wave function oscillating between -1 and 1.

The y-axis is labeled, and the graph of each function is plotted over the domain including \(-\pi\) to \(\pi\) on the x-axis. The intersections of these two graphs signify the x-values you will approximate using Newton’s Method.
