FP1.3.1 - Equations of the form f(x) = 0 f(x) will involve only

Equations of the form f(x) = 0 f(x) will involve only functions used in P1 and P2. solved numerically by: For the Newton-Raphson process, the only differentiation (i) interval bisection, required will be as defined in unit P1 and P2. (ii) linear interpolation, (iii) the Newton-Raphson process.

Use fp1.3.1 - equations of the form f(x) = 0 f(x) will involve only to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because fp1.3.1 - equations of the form f(x) = 0 f(x) will involve only determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply fp1.3.1 - equations of the form f(x) = 0 f(x) will involve only to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: use the formula and units given in the question, show the substitution and interpret the result; the calculation alone is not the conclusion.
