If \(y=x^4-10\) and if x changes from 2 to 1.99, then the changed value of y is approximately :

  1. A -0.32
  2. B 0.32
  3. C 6.32
  4. D 5.68
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 5.68

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(y_{initial} = (2)^4 - 10 = 16 - 10 = 6\) \(\frac{dy}{dx} = 4x^3\) \(dy = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)_{x=2} \cdot \Delta x = 4(2)^3 \cdot (1.99 - 2) = 32 \cdot (-0.01) = -0.32\) \(y_{changed} \approx y_{initial} + dy = 6 + (-0.32) = 5.68\)
