Misc 1 Using differentials, find the approximate value of each of the following: (a) (17/81)^(1/4) (17/81)^(1/4) = (17)^(1/4)/(81)^(1/4) = (17)^(1/4)/3 Let š‘¦ =š‘„^(1/4) Where š‘„=16 and ā–³š‘„=1 Since š’š =š’™^(šŸ/šŸ’) š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„=š‘‘(š‘„^(1/4) )/š‘‘š‘„ = 1/4 š‘„^(1/4 āˆ’ 1) = 1/4 š‘„^((āˆ’3)/4) = 1/(4š‘„^(3/4) ) Now, āˆ†š’š=š’…š’š/š’…š’™ āˆ†š’™ āˆ†š‘¦ = (1/(4š‘„^(3/4) ))āˆ†š‘„ Putting values āˆ†š‘¦ = 1/4 Ɨ 1/(16)^(3/4) Ɨ 1 = 1/4 Ɨ 1/(2^4 )^(3/4) = 1/4 Ɨ 1/2^3 = šŸ/šŸ‘šŸ Now, (17)^(1/4)=š‘¦+āˆ†š‘¦ Putting values (17)^(1/4) = (16)^(1/4)+āˆ†š‘¦ (17)^(1/4) = (2^4 )^(1/4)+āˆ†š‘¦ (17)^(1/4) = 2+āˆ†š‘¦ (17)^(1/4) = 2 + 1/32 (17)^(1/4) = 2+ 0.03125 (šŸšŸ•)^(šŸ/šŸ’) = 2.03125 Now, Approximate value of (šŸšŸ•/šŸ–šŸ)^(šŸ/šŸ’) = (17)^(1/4)/3 = 2.03125/3 = 0.677 Hence, approximate value of (17/81)^(1/4) is 0.677 (As approximate value of (17)^(1/4) = 2.03125)
