Using GC, roots of equation are 1.253, 7.848 .

(ii)

As n , xn L, xn 1 L

L ln L 1 4 2 ln L 1 4 L 0

Since equation is identical to 2ln x 1 4 x 0


L 1.253 or L 7.848
Hence the sequence converges to either or .
(iii)

Using GC, it can be observed that


when x1 3 , the sequence increases and converges to 7.848 .
when x1 12 , the sequence decreases and converges to 7.848 .

From (ii), f x 0 for x 0


0 for 0 x 1

0 for 1 x 0

From the given graph, g x 0 for 1 x 1 and g' x 0 for x 0


0 for 0 x 1

Therefore,
When 1 x 0, w' x 0. .

When x 0, w' x 0.
When 0 x 1, w' x 0.
Since w' x 0 0 for 1 x 1, there are no stationary points in the graph of w.
