Use iteration to approximate a solution

Algebra · Numerical methods (T-ALG-015)

v1 mapping, pending teacher review. Only AQA and Edexcel are mapped so far. The first 3 pilot worksheets and their worked answers are available; remaining worksheets are coming soon. All videos are still coming soon.

Retrieval
Use an initial value and recurrence rule
Fluency
Repeated substitution and convergence
Reasoning
Explain the evidence for accuracy or convergence.
Application
Compare approximations and justify stopping accuracy
Common misconception
Repeated values alone do not justify every claimed digit.

Video brief

Model how to use iteration to approximate a solution. Explain each step; pause for a matching shadow question.

Planned video: V-ALG-040 · Video coming soon
