Find the intervals containing the soltuions for [itex] 4x^2 - e^x = 0 [/itex]
now this can't be solved by elementary methods since all i get is
[tex] x - 2 \ln(x) = \ln(4) [/tex]
finding the derivative doesn't help either
[tex] f'{x} = 8x - e^x [/tex]
[tex] 0 = 8x - e^x [/tex]
cant just GUESS ... that isn't right ...
this is for a numericals methods class, i do not believe that they wat me to use fixed point iteration or anything else for that matter with this problem
please help! Thank you!
