(B) Let $y = \sqrt{x}$.We choose $x = 25$ and $\Delta x = 0.3$,so that $x + \Delta x = 25.3$.Then,$\Delta y = \sqrt{x + \Delta x} - \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{25.3} - \sqrt{25} = \sqrt{25.3} - 5$.This implies $\sqrt{25.3} = 5 + \Delta y$.Using the approximation $dy \approx \Delta y$,we have $dy = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}ight) \Delta x$.Since $y = x^{1/2}$,$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$.Substituting the values,$dy = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{25}} 	imes 0.3 = \frac{1}{2 	imes 5} 	imes 0.3 = \frac{0.3}{10} = 0.03$.Therefore,$\sqrt{25.3} \approx 5 + 0.03 = 5.03$.
