shooting method for non-linear equation(urgent)

Homework Statement


for shooting method , in non-linear equation, we're find
$$t_{k}=t_{k-1}-\frac{[y(b,t_{k-1})-β](t_{k-1}-t_{k-2})}{y(b,t_{k-1})-y(b,t_{k-2})}$$
but how can we find the $$y(b,t_{k})$$ ?
I am suppose to use Euler method for it , but I'm confused,
for example , the question is $$y''=-(y')^2-y+lnx , 1≤x≤2 , y(1)=0, y(2)=ln2$$
suppose $$t_{0}=3, y(2,t_{0})=2.775, t_{1}=0.7, y(2,t_{1})=0.5775 $$we can find $$t_{2}=0.72105$$ then how can we find $$y(2,t_{2})$$ ?with Euler method , with h=0.5,
and I also want to know if the question didn't give what the $$y(b,t_{0})$$ , and $$y(b,t_{1})$$ is , how can I find them in the case , I know what $$t_{0} $$ and $$t_{1}$$ is , sorry for the poor
English but the way.

it's ok now , I got it , no need to answer this post , thank you lol
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
