Solve the problem.Use Newton's method to estimate the solutions of the equation 
. Start with
for the right-hand solution and with x0 = -2 for the solution on the left. Then, in each case find x2.
What will be an ideal response?
f(x) = -3x2 - 4x + 1, f'(x) = -6x - 4
Right-hand solution:
x1 = 0.5
xn + 1 = xn - 
= 
therefore x2 = 0.2500
Left-hand solution:
x1 = -2
xn + 1 = xn - 
= 
therefore x2 = -1.6250
