A piecewise linear function f(x) is plotted using thick solid lines in the figure below (the plot is drawn to scale).
If we use the Newton-Raphson method to find the roots of f(x) = 0 using x0, x1 and x2 respectively as initial guesses, the roots obtained would be
A. 1.3, 0.6 and 0.6 respectively
B. 0.6, 0.6 and 1.3 respectively
C. 1.3, 1.3 and 0.6 respectively
D. 1.3, 0.6 and 1.3 respectively
