Problem 103 of 7
Use successive approximation from the table f minus g=-2, x=1.0; f minus g=-0.5, x=1.5; f minus g=0.8, x=2.0; f minus g=2.1, x=2.5 to narrow the solution interval for f(x)=g(x).
Using a hint is okay. It just tells the trainer to give you a little more review.

Table must include a sign change in f-g over an interval.
Enter your answer
Your answer is equivalent to the expected form.
Walkthrough
Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Compute or inspect f(x)-g(x).
2. The solution lies where the sign changes from negative to positive or positive to negative.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
Interval without sign change unless exact zero is present.
