  1. f(x)=x412x32+7x0f(x) = x^4 - 12x^{\frac{3}{2}} + 7 \quad x \geq 0

(a) 证明方程 f(x)=0f(x) = 0 在区间 [2,3][2, 3] 内有一个根 α\alpha

(b) 取 2.52.5 作为 α\alpha 的第一个近似值,对 f(x)f(x) 应用一次 Newton-Raphson 法,求 α\alpha 的第二个近似值,答案保留 2 位小数。

(c) 证明 (b) 的答案给出 α\alpha 精确到 2 位小数。

解答

(a)

解法一

思路

展开

分别计算区间两端的函数值。由于函数在 [2,3][2,3] 上连续,而两端函数值异号,可由介值定理确定区间内至少有一个根。

答题过程

展开 f(2)=2412(2)32+7=2324210.941,\begin{align*} f(2) =&\,2^4-12(2)^{\frac{3}{2}}+7 \\ =&\,23-24\sqrt{2} \\ \approx&\,-10.941, \end{align*}

and

f(3)=3412(3)32+7=8836325.646.\begin{align*} f(3) =&\,3^4-12(3)^{\frac{3}{2}}+7 \\ =&\,88-36\sqrt{3} \\ \approx&\,25.646. \end{align*}

Thus f(2)<0<f(3)f(2)<0<f(3). Since ff is continuous on [2,3][2,3], there is a root

α(2,3).\boxed{\alpha\in(2,3)}.

(b)

解法一

思路

展开

先求导,再把初值 x0=2.5x_0=2.5 代入 Newton–Raphson 公式 xn+1=xnf(xn)f(xn)x_{n+1}=x_n-\dfrac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)},只迭代一次。

答题过程

Differentiating,

f(x)=4x318x12.f'(x)=4x^3-18x^{\frac{1}{2}}.

Using x0=2.5x_0=2.5, the Newton–Raphson formula gives

f(2.5)=(2.5)412(2.5)32+7=1.371664,\begin{align*} f(2.5) =&\,(2.5)^4-12(2.5)^{\frac{3}{2}}+7 \\ =&\,-1.371664\ldots, \end{align*}

and

f(2.5)=4(2.5)318(2.5)12=34.039501.\begin{align*} f'(2.5) =&\,4(2.5)^3-18(2.5)^{\frac{1}{2}} \\ =&\,34.039501\ldots. \end{align*}

Therefore,

x1=x0f(x0)f(x0)=2.51.37166434.039501=2.540296\begin{align*} x_1 =&\,x_0-\frac{f(x_0)}{f'(x_0)} \\ =&\,2.5-\frac{-1.371664\ldots}{34.039501\ldots} \\ =&\,2.540296\ldots \end{align*}

Therefore, to two decimal places,

α2.54.\boxed{\alpha\approx2.54}.

(c)

解法一

思路

展开

一个数四舍五入到两位小数为 2.542.54,应落在 2.5352.5352.5452.545 之间。检查这两个舍入边界处的函数值异号,即可确认根位于该区间内。

答题过程

展开 f(2.535)=0.137392<0f(2.535)=-0.137392\ldots<0

and

f(2.545)=0.231219>0.f(2.545)=0.231219\ldots>0.

Since ff is continuous and changes sign between 2.5352.535 and 2.5452.545,

2.535<α<2.545.2.535<\alpha<2.545.

Every number in this interval rounds to 2.542.54 to two decimal places. Hence

α=2.54 correct to two decimal places.\boxed{\alpha=2.54\text{ correct to two decimal places}.}

解法二

思路

展开

官方评分资料也接受再做一次 Newton–Raphson 迭代。若下一次近似仍为 2.5382.538\ldots,其两位小数仍是 2.542.54,便验证了 (b) 的答案。

答题过程

展开

Applying Newton–Raphson once more, starting from x1=2.54x_1=2.54,

x2=2.54f(2.54)f(2.54)=2.540.04601636.860976=2.538751\begin{align*} x_2 =&\,2.54-\frac{f(2.54)}{f'(2.54)} \\ =&\,2.54-\frac{0.046016\ldots}{36.860976\ldots} \\ =&\,2.538751\ldots \end{align*}

This also rounds to 2.542.54 to two decimal places. Therefore,

α=2.54 correct to two decimal places.\boxed{\alpha=2.54\text{ correct to two decimal places}.}
