4. \begin{figure}[h] \end{figure} Figure 1 shows a sketch of part of the curve with equation \(y = g ( x )\), where $$\mathrm { g } ( x ) = \left| 4 \mathrm { e } ^ { 2 x } - 25 \right| , \quad x \in \mathbb { R }$$ The curve cuts the \(y\)-axis at the point \(A\) and meets the \(x\)-axis at the point \(B\). The curve has an asymptote \(y = k\), where \(k\) is a constant, as shown in Figure 1

1. Find, giving each answer in its simplest form,
   1. the \(y\) coordinate of the point \(A\),
   2. the exact \(x\) coordinate of the point \(B\),
   3. the value of the constant \(k\). The equation \(\mathrm { g } ( x ) = 2 x + 43\) has a positive root at \(x = \alpha\)
2. Show that \(\alpha\) is a solution of \(x = \frac { 1 } { 2 } \ln \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 } x + 17 \right)\) The iteration formula $$x _ { n + 1 } = \frac { 1 } { 2 } \ln \left( \frac { 1 } { 2 } x _ { n } + 17 \right)$$ can be used to find an approximation for \(\alpha\)
3. Taking \(x _ { 0 } = 1.4\) find the values of \(x _ { 1 }\) and \(x _ { 2 }\) Give each answer to 4 decimal places.
4. By choosing a suitable interval, show that \(\alpha = 1.437\) to 3 decimal places. \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{d3ba2776-eedb-48f0-834f-41aa454afba3-07_2258_47_315_37}
