 Use differential to approximate 16.6

a
4.4
b
1.3712
c
4.075
d
4.175

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Take y=x, let x=16 and Δx=0.6Δy=(x+Δx)−x=16.6−16=16.6−4 or  16.6=Δy+4 Now dy is approximately equal to Δy and is given by dy=dydxΔx=12x(0.6)dy=1(216)(0.6)−18(0.6)=0.075 Thus, the approximate value of 16.6=4+0.075=4.075
