The following equation needs to be numerically solved using the Newton-Raphson method. x3 + 4x - 9 = 0. The iterative equation for this purpose is (k indicates the iteration level)

A. $${{\text{x}}_{{\text{k}} + 1}} = \frac{{2{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^3 + 9}}{{3{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 4}}$$

B. $${{\text{x}}_{{\text{k}} + 1}} = \frac{{3{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 4}}{{2{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 9}}$$

C. $${{\text{x}}_{{\text{k}} + 1}} = {{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}} - 3{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 4$$

D. $${{\text{x}}_{{\text{k}} + 1}} = \frac{{4{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 3}}{{9{\text{x}}_{\text{k}}^2 + 2}}$$
