Determine the highest root of f(x)=2x^3-11.7x^2+ 17.7x - 5 (in the domain x [2.5, 4]) and the approximate percent relative errors for your solutions, using a)-bisection method (two iterations) b) -newton-raphson method (two iterations xo=3) c)-false position method (two iterations) d)-fixed point iteration method (two iterations xo=3). hint: na make sure you develop a so ou develop a solution that converges

Ariver flows from north to south at 8 km/h. a boat is to cross this river from west to east at a speed of 20 km/h (speed of the boat with respect to the earth/ground). at what angle (in degrees) must the boat be pointed upstream such that it will proceed directly across the river (hint: find the speed of the boat with respect to water/river)? a 288 b. 21.8 c. 326 d. 30.2

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
