Question
![**Problem Statement:**
Estimate \( f(3.05, 3.91) \) assuming that:
\[
f(3, 4) = 5, \quad f_x(3, 4) = 0.7, \quad f_y(3, 4) = -0.8
\]
(Use decimal notation. Give your answer to three decimal places.)
**Student's Attempt:**
\[
f(3.05, 3.91) \approx 5.121 \text{ (Incorrect)}
\]
**Note:** This estimate was determined to be incorrect. A correct estimation process would involve using a linear approximation or differentials.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F1f133c63-1716-41d7-8ec5-0f87428512d1%2F026b591d-d15b-47de-86ec-af2ddcac40a9%2F3ibx3xc_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
