Use the factor theorem to show that $(x + 2)$ is a factor of $x^4 + 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 12x - 32$.
Show that $\beta$ obeys an equation of the form $x = \sqrt[3]{(p + qx)}$, and state the values of $p$ and $q$.
Use an iterative formula built from the equation in part (ii) to determine the value of $\beta$ correct to 4 significant figures. Record each iteration to 6 significant figures.
