Let \(y=f(x)=2 x^{2}-3 x+2\). The differential of \(y\) when \(x\) changes from 2 to \(1.99\) is

  1. A \(0.01\)
  2. B \(0.18\)
  3. C \(-0.05\)
  4. D \(0.07\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(-0.05\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hint: \(\Delta x=-0.01 \Rightarrow \Delta y=f^{\prime}(x) \Delta x \Rightarrow \Delta y=f^{\prime}(2)(-0.01) \Rightarrow \Delta y=-5 \times 0.01 \Rightarrow \Delta y=-0.05\)
