Using differentials, find the approximate values of the following:
$(29)^{\frac{1}{3}}$
✓

Answer

Consider the function $\text{y}=\text{f} (\text{x})=(\text{x})^{\frac{1}{3}}$

Let:

$\text{x} =27$

$\text{x}+\triangle \text{x}=29$

Then,

$\text{x}= 2$

For $\text{x}=27$

$\text{y}=(27)^{\frac {1}{3}}=3$

Let:

$\text{dx}=\triangle \text{x}=2$

Now  $\text{y}=(\text {x})^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$\Rightarrow\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{3(\text {x})^{\frac{2}{3}}}$

$\Rightarrow\Big(\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}= 27}=\frac{1}{27}$

$\therefore\triangle \text{y}=\text{dy}=\frac{\text{dy}} {\text{dx}}\text{dx}=\frac{1} {27}\times2=0.074$

$\Rightarrow\triangle \text{y} =0.074$

$\therefore(29)^{\frac {1}{3}}=\text{y}+\triangle\text{y} =3.074$
