SOLUTION
Step 1 :
In this question, we are meant to use successive approximation to find an approximate solution to the equation
![\text{f (x ) = g ( x )}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/gtj6cgnn3f67m80xhdiiu6a34vq2r3xa5i.png)
Step 2 :
From the attached graph, we can note the following:
The value of x that intersects the two graphs is at x = 3.75.
Therefore, the approximate solution to the equation to the equation,
f(x ) = g( x ) is
![x\text{ }\approx\text{ }(61)/(16)\text{ -- OPTION B}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/5v3w3p2b5ptjkb9lfi1xdn71pxjznrpjg4.png)
