(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Apply the Newton-Raphson method to the function \(f(x)=\tanh \left(x^{2}-9\right)\) to evaluate its known real root at x = 3. Use an initial guess of \(x_{0}=3.2\) and take a minimum of three iterations.

(b) Did the method exhibit convergence onto its real root? Sketch the plot with the results for each iteration labeled.
