Homework Statement
Apply fixed point iteration to find the solution of each equation to eight correct decimal places
x3=2x+2
The Attempt at a Solution
I have tried to rewrite the equation for in every possible way to solve for one x and pluggin in my guess( have tried -2,-1,0,1,2,3,4)
and finding x1 and then x2 and plugging them all inn seperatly.
But my answer switches from positive values to negative values and never seems to be converging to the answer which is 1.76929235
I can understand the sample problem but I'm stuck on this problem.
