Because linear equations are so much easier to solve than nonlinear ones, much research across a range of disciplines is devoted to finding linear approximations of nonlinear phenomena.

Use Newton's Method with the initial approximation x1 =1 x 1 = 1 to find x2 x 2 and x3, x 3, the second and the third approximations to the root a a of the equation x6 −x−1 =0. x 6 x 1 = 0 You may use ...
