i am calculating the answer using approximation. Let
f ( x ) f ′ ( x ) = x 5 − x 3 + x − 2 = 5 x 4 − 3 x 2 + 1
f ′ ( x ) = Δ x → 0 lim Δ x f ( x + Δ x ) − f ( x ) f ( x + Δ x ) ≈ f ( x ) + Δ x f ′ ( x )
above f ( 2 ) function increases rapidly below f ( − 1 ) function decreases rapidly
f ( 2 ) f ( 1 ) f ( 0 ) f ( − 1 ) = 3 2 − 8 = 2 4 a root between 1 and 2 = − 1 We can safely conclude that ⌊ α ⌋ = 1 = − 2 = − 3
f ( 1 + Δ x ) Δ x f ( 1 + Δ x + Δ x 2 ) Δ x 2 = f ( 1 ) + Δ x f ′ ( x ) = 0 = − f ′ ( 1 ) f ( 1 ) = 3 1 = f ( 1 + Δ x ) + Δ x 2 × f ′ ( 1 + Δ x ) = 0 Repeating the process 2nd time gives better accuracy = − f ′ ( 1 + Δ x ) f ( 1 + Δ x ) = − f ′ ( 3 4 ) f ( 3 4 ) = − 0 . 1 0 2 6
α α 6 ⌊ α 6 ⌋ = 1 + Δ x + Δ x 2 = 1 + 3 1 − 0 . 1 0 2 6 = 1 . 2 3 0 7 = 3 . 0 3 1 = 3
