closed with the note: Out of syllabus now

Consider the series $x_{n+1} = \frac{x_n}{2}+\frac{9}{8x_n},x_0 = 0.5$ obtained from the Newton-Raphson method. The series converges to

  1. 1.5
  2. $\sqrt{2}$
  3. 1.6
  4. 1.4

The Newton-Raphson method is to be used to find the root of the equation $f(x)=0$ where $x_o$ is the initial approximation and $f’$ is the derivative of $f$. The method converges always only if $f$ is a polynomial only if $f(x_o) <0$ none of the above
