Q. Session x x \newline44. Cora is using successive approximations to estimate a positive solution to f(x)=g(x) f(x)=g(x) , where f(x)=x2+13 f(x)=x^{2}+13 and g(x)=3x+14 g(x)=3 x+14 . The table shows her results for different input values of x x .\newline\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\newline\hlinex x & f(x) f(x) & g(x) g(x) \\\newline\hline 00 & 1313 & 1414 \\\newline\hline 11 & 1414 & 1717 \\\newline\hline 22 & 1717 & 2020 \\\newline\hline 33 & 2222 & 2323 \\\newline\hline 44 & 2929 & 2626 \\\newline\hline 33.55 & 2525.2525 & 2424.55 \\\newline\hline\newline\end{tabular}\newlineUse Cora's process to find the positive solution, to the nearest tenth, of f(x)=g(x) f(x)=g(x) .
  1. Analyze the table: Step 11: Analyze the table to find where f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x) values are closest.\newline- f(3)=22f(3) = 22, g(3)=23g(3) = 23\newline- f(3.5)=25.25f(3.5) = 25.25, g(3.5)=24.5g(3.5) = 24.5\newline- f(4)=29f(4) = 29, g(4)=26g(4) = 26\newlineThe values are closest between x=3x = 3 and x=4x = 4.
  2. Interpolation estimate: Step 22: Use interpolation to estimate the solution between x=3x = 3 and x=4x = 4.
    - Slope of f(x)f(x) from x=3x = 3 to x=4x = 4: (2922)/(43)=7(29 - 22) / (4 - 3) = 7
    - Slope of g(x)g(x) from x=3x = 3 to x=4x = 4: (2623)/(43)=3(26 - 23) / (4 - 3) = 3
    - Difference in slopes = x=4x = 400
    - Difference in function values at x=3x = 3: x=4x = 422
    - Estimate x=4x = 433 where x=4x = 444: x=4x = 455, so x=4x = 466
