Question

Using differentials, find the approximate values of the following:
$25^{\frac{1}{3}}$

✓

Answer

Consider the function $\text{y}=\text{f} (\text{x})=(\text{x})^{\frac{1}{3}}$Let:
$\text{x}=27$
$\text{x}+\triangle \text{x}=25$Then,
$\triangle\text{x}=-2$For $\text{x}=27$
$\text{y}=(27)^{\frac{1}{3}}=3$Let:
$\text{dx}=\triangle \text{x}=-2$Now, $\text{y}=(\text{x})^{\frac{1}{3}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}=\frac{1}{3(\text{x})^{\frac{2}{3}}}$ $\Rightarrow\Big(\frac {\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)_{\text{x}=27}=\frac{1}{27}$ $\therefore\triangle \text{y}=\text{dy}=\frac{\text{dy}} {\text{dx}}\text{dx}=\frac{1}{27}\times(-2)=0.07407$ $\Rightarrow\triangle\text{y} =0.07407$ $\therefore(25)^{\frac{1}{3}}=\text{y}+\triangle\text{y}=2.9259$
