Question 28097: An Exact Root Stops before Any Newton Division

Original question and givens

Coefficients in low-to-high degree order are=[-22, 0, 1]; all iterations use exact rational arithmetic. The current iterate is x=3. Give (coefficients_low_to_high, current_iterate, function_value, derivative_value, status, next_iterate_or_null, root_first_convention).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
