Use Newton's method to find the first 5 approximations of the solution to the equation LaTeX:  \displaystyle e^{- x}= \frac{x^{3}}{1000} - 2 using LaTeX:  \displaystyle x_0=11 .

Using the formula for Newton's method gives LaTeX:  x_{n+1} =  x_{n} - \frac{- \frac{x_{n}^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- x_{n}}}{- \frac{3 x_{n}^{2}}{1000} - e^{- x_{n}}}   Using LaTeX:  \displaystyle x_0 = 11 and LaTeX:  \displaystyle n = 0,1,2,3, and LaTeX:  \displaystyle 4 gives: LaTeX:  x_{1} =  (11.0000000000) - \frac{- \frac{(11.0000000000)^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- (11.0000000000)}}{- \frac{3 (11.0000000000)^{2}}{1000} - e^{- (11.0000000000)}} = 12.8429364229 LaTeX:  x_{2} =  (12.8429364229) - \frac{- \frac{(12.8429364229)^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- (12.8429364229)}}{- \frac{3 (12.8429364229)^{2}}{1000} - e^{- (12.8429364229)}} = 12.6038131547 LaTeX:  x_{3} =  (12.6038131547) - \frac{- \frac{(12.6038131547)^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- (12.6038131547)}}{- \frac{3 (12.6038131547)^{2}}{1000} - e^{- (12.6038131547)}} = 12.5992192606 LaTeX:  x_{4} =  (12.5992192606) - \frac{- \frac{(12.5992192606)^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- (12.5992192606)}}{- \frac{3 (12.5992192606)^{2}}{1000} - e^{- (12.5992192606)}} = 12.5992175853 LaTeX:  x_{5} =  (12.5992175853) - \frac{- \frac{(12.5992175853)^{3}}{1000} + 2 + e^{- (12.5992175853)}}{- \frac{3 (12.5992175853)^{2}}{1000} - e^{- (12.5992175853)}} = 12.5992175853
