Does the differential dy represent the change in f or the change in the linear approximation to​ f? Explain.

Respuesta :

Below are the choices that can be found elsewhere:

A: The change in the linear approximation to f; dy depends on f'(x) and the differential dx.
B: The change in f; dy depends on f'(x) and the differential dx.
C: The change in f; dy depends on the differential dx only.
D: The change in the linear approximation to f; dy depends on the differential dx only.

I think the answer is A.
