Bisection Method for Root Finding

The document describes the implementation of the Bisection Method to find the root of the function f(x) = -0.6*x^2 + 2.4*x + 5.5 within the interval [5, 10]. It outlines the iterative process, including calculations of approximate relative error and updates to the lower and upper bounds. The results of each iteration are displayed in a table format, showing the progress towards the root.
