Popis: In this article, we apply Newton's method to the characteristic polynomial of 4th order pairwise comparison matrices. We will see that convergent limit of the sequence generated by the iteration of Newton's method depends on the choice of an initial value. We seek the viability of possible choice of the initial value corresponding to the consistency of the pairwise comparison.
