Question 4
Consider the function
f(x) = (x + 3)(x - 5)
We apply the bisection method to this function starting with the interval [2, 4] This means
a = 2, b = 4.
Which of the following statements is correct?
Note: it might be helpful to graph the function (by hand!).
The bisection method will converge to the root r = 5 .
The bisection method does not converge because f(a)ƒ(b) > 0.
The bisection method will converge to the root r = -3.
