Question
Using differentials, find the approximate values of the following:
$(82)^{\frac{1}{4}}$

Answer

Let $\text{x}=81,\\\text{x}+ \triangle\text{x}=82$$\triangle\text{x}=82- 81$
$=1$
Let $\text{y}=\text{x}^ {\frac{1}{4}}$
$\frac{\text{dy}} {\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{4\text{x}^{\frac{3} {4}}}$
$\Big(\frac{\text{dy}} {\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=81}=\frac{1} {4(81)^{\frac{3}{4}}}$
$=\frac{1}{108}$
$=0.009259$
$\triangle\text{y}= \Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_ {\text{x}=81}\times(\triangle\text{x})$
$=(0.0008259)(1)$
$=0.009259$
$(82)^{\frac{1}{4}}= \text{y}+ \triangle\text{y}$
$=\text {x}^\frac{1} {4}+0.009259$
$=(81)\frac{1} {4}+0.009259$
$=(81)\frac{1} {4}+3.009259$

There are three categories of students in a class of 60 students:
A : Very hardworking
B : Regular but not so hardworking
C : Careless and irregular 10 students are in category A, 30 in category B and the rest in category C.
It is found that the probability of students of category A, unable to get good marks in the final year examination is 0.002, of category B it is 0.02 and of category C, this probability is 0.20. A student selected at random was found to be one who could not get good marks in the examination. Find the probability that this student is category C.

A manufacturer has employed 5 skilled men and 10 semi-skilled men and makes two models A and B of an article. The making of one item of model A requires 2 hours work by a skilled man and 2 hours work by a semi-skilled man. One item of model B requires 1 hour by a skilled man and 3 hours by a semi-skilled man. No man is expected to work more than 8 hours per day. The manufacturer’s profit on an item of model A is Rs. 15 and on an item of model B is Rs. 10. How many of items of each model should be made per day in order to maximize daily profit? Formulate the above LPP and solve it graphically and find the maximum profit.
