Can anyone help me with the following problem in MATLAB?

Question

I have to find a single root of an equation using successive approximation method (also known as iterative method).

However, the first step of this method is to transform a given equation f(x)=0 to x=g(x).

For example, if the given function is x²-x-1=0, you can express it as x=x²-1 or some other variation (some variations don't work, but that's another story).

So, for a given function f(x)=0, I need to transform it into x=g(x) [so that I can work with g(x)]. How can I do it using MATLAB?
