A fixed point of f is a value of x that satisfies the equation f(x) = x; it corresponds to a point at which the graph of f intersects the line y = x. Find all the fixed points of the function. Use preliminary analysis and graphing to determine good initial approximations. Round approximations to six decimal places.f(x) = x2 - 1

A. x ? -0.618034, 1.618034
B. x ? -0.118034, 1.118034
C. x ? -1.118034, 1.118034
D. x ? -1.618034, 2.618034
