Solve the problem.Suppose that P dollars are loaned, with the money to be repaid in n monthly payments of M dollars each. Then the true annual interest rate is found by solving the equation  for i, the monthly interest rate, and then multiplying i by 12 to get the true annual rate. This equation can best be solved by Newton's method, letting  . Suppose that P = $13,000, n = 60, and M = $308. Let the initial guess for i be i1 = 0.01. Use Newton's method to find i2. Give your answer to five decimal places.
