Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 9.00989

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Let } \mathrm{f}(x) \\ \therefore \quad & =3^x \\ \quad f^{\prime}(x) & =3^x \log 3 \\ \therefore \quad \text { Here, } \mathrm{a} & =2 \text { and } \mathrm{h}=0.001 \\ \therefore \quad \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{h}) & \approx \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{a})+\mathrm{hf}^{\prime}(\mathrm{a}) \\ & \approx \mathrm{f}(2)+(0.001)+\mathrm{f}^{\prime}(2) \\ & \approx 3^2+(0.001)\left(3^2 \log 3\right) \\ & \approx 9+(0.001)(9 \times 1.0986) \\ & \approx 9+0.00989 \\ & \approx 9.00989\end{aligned}\)
