Find the approximate values of : `sqrt(8.95)`

Sum

Solution

Let f(x) = `sqrt(x)`.

Then f'(x) = `(1)/(2sqrt(x)`.

Take a = 9 and h = – 0.05.
Then f(a) = f(9) = `sqrt(9)` = 3 and

f'(a) = f'(9) = `(1)/(2sqrt(9)) = (1)/(6)`.

The formula for approximation is
f(a + h) ≑ f(a) + h.f'(a)

∴ `sqrt(8.95)` = f(9 – 0.05)

≑ f(9) – (0.05)f'(9)

≑ `3 - 0.05 xx (1)/(6)`

≑ 3 – 0.0083 = 2.9917

∴ `sqrt(8.95)` ≑ 2.9917.
