![f(x)=2x^3 +5x−1 ⇒f^′ (x)=6x^2 +5 >0 ⇒f is increasing on R f(0)=−1<0 and f(1)=2+5−1 =6>0 ⇒∃! α_0 ∈]0,1[ /f(α_0 )=0 we can use newton method by taking x_0 =(1/2) and x_(n+1) =x_n −((f(x_n ))/(f^′ (x_n ))) ⇒x_1 =x_0 −((f(x_0 ))/(f^′ (x_0 )))=(1/2)−((f((1/2)))/(f^′ ((1/2)))) f((1/2))=(1/4)+(5/2)−1 =((1+10−4)/4) =(7/4) f^′ ((1/2))=(6/4)+5 =(3/2)+5 =((13)/2) ⇒x_1 =(1/2)−((7/4)/((13)/2)) =(1/2)−(7/4)×(2/(13)) =(1/2)−(7/(26)) x_1 =((13−7)/(26)) =(6/(26)) =(3/(13)) ⇒x_1 ∼0,23 we fllow the same way to calculate x_2 ,x_3 ,x_4 ,...](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q77888.png)

![say f(x) = 2x^3 + 5x − 1 f(0) = 2(0)^3 +5(0) − 1= −1 f(1) = 2 + 5 − 1 = 6 a change of sign from − to + in the interval [0,1] shows that f(x) has a root or zero in this interval.](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q77880.png)
