\

The equation is $\"\"$ .

\

The interval is $\"\"$ .

\

Therefore, the solution $\"\"$ is in the interval $\"\"$ .

\

Divide the interval $\"\"$ into $\"\"$ equal subintervals :

\

$\"\"$

\

Now find the value of $\"\"$ at each end point until the intermediate value therom applies.

\

$\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Stop here and conclude that the value of zero is in between $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

Divide the interval $\"\"$ into equal subintervals and proceed to evaluate $\"\"$ at each end point.

\

$\"\"$

\

Stop here and conclude that zero lies between $\"\"$ and $\"\"$ and correct to two decimal places the zero is $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$

\

The value of $\"\"$ is $\"\"$ .
