The previous estimate is slightly
bigger.

f(x)
is relatively large.
Note the difference between the last two estimates, as well as the relatively large
value for
f(x)
. The problem is that there is no value of
x
for which
f(x)
equals zero.
However, at
x
= 1.99999999999, there is a neighboring value of
x
that yields
ant opposite sign for
f(x).

f(x)
becomes a very large positive or negative number.
