i have a question: why bother doing all this to find approximations of the x-value when you could just solve the quadratic equation and arrive at the answer straight away?
@gouzbekistan1 Cause then it would be off topic. He's showing us a different method.
The answers to the quadratic equation are 1+ root(6) and 1- root (6). Not sure how those answers even correlate to the Newton Method. Those are the intersections of those two lines.
@gouzbekistan1 this method is applied in numerical calculus where you cannot compute the exact root of the function but you know that this function admits finite derivative different from 0 in the neighbourhood of the solution. it permits obtaining very quick an approximation for the solution of the equation. Hope it helped if you haven`t found out already about this algorithm.

@fldoughboy72 then why does newton's method even exist? when we can do it so easily?
