Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 6.05

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(f(x) = \sqrt{x}\) \(x = 36, \Delta x = 0.6\) \(f(x) = \sqrt{36} = 6\) \(f'(x) = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\) \(f'(36) = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{36}} = \frac{1}{12}\) \(\sqrt{36.6} \approx f(x) + f'(x)\Delta x\) \(\sqrt{36.6} \approx 6 + \frac{1}{12}(0.6)\) \(\sqrt{36.6} \approx 6 + 0.05\)…
