Jacob is solving the equation below using successive approximations. he started from a graph where he found the solution to be between 1 and 2. using the lower and upper bounds from the graph, jacob did the following work for the first iteration. step 1 rewrite the equation so that it equals zero on one side. step 2 evaluate the rewritten equation at the lower and upper bounds. to find the solution that lies between 1 and 2, set these values as the lower and upper bounds while finding the solution. step 3 take the average of the lower and upper bounds. step 4 evaluate the rewritten equation at x = . step 5 since this value is positive, replace the previous lower bound so that the bounds are now x = and x = 2. where did jacob make a mistake, and what was the error? a. jacob made a mistake at step 2. the actual evaluation of the rewritten equation at x = 2 is 3. b. jacob made a mistake at step 4. the actual evaluation of the rewritten equation is approximately -1.636. c. jacob made a mistake at step 5. he should have used x = as the new upper bound. d. jacob did not make any mistakes in the calculation process.
