Question

A piecewise linear function $f(x)$ is plotted using thick solid lines in the figure below (the plot is drawn to scale).

If we use the Newton-Raphson method to find the roots of \(f(x)=0\) using \(x_0, x_1,\) and \(x_2\) respectively as initial guesses, the roots obtained would be

• A. 1.3, 0.6, and 0.6 respectively
• B. 0.6, 0.6, and 1.3 respectively
• C. 1.3, 1.3, and 0.6 respectively
• D. 1.3, 0.6, and 1.3 respectively
