Regula falsi - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regula_falsiTwo basic types of false position method can be distinguished historically, simple false position and double false position. Simple false position is aimed at solving problems involving direct proportion. Such problems can be written algebraically in the form: determine x such that if a and b are known. The method begins by using a test input value x′, and finding the correspon…
Regula-Falsi Method

The function f(x) does not have any role in finding the point c (which is just the mid-point of a and b). It is used only to decide the next smaller interval [a,c] or [c,b].
