1. Start with an initial guess for the value of x, denoted as x0.
2. Substitute x0 into the equation and calculate the result. Let's denote this result as f(x0).
3. Take the derivative of the equation with respect to x. Let's denote this derivative as f'(x).
4. Use the approximation formula: x1 = x0 - f(x0) / f'(x0).
5. Substitute x1 into the equation and calculate f(x1).
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you reach a desired level of accuracy or until the value of x stops changing significantly.
Note: The derivative of the equation is necessary to apply the approximation method. If you're not familiar with calculus or don't have the derivative, you may need to use a different method to solve the equation.
