(Round your answer to four decimal places.)
√(80.8)
linearized function f(x) = ?
approximation = 8.9889
I already found approximation but I have no idea how to find the linearized function.

let f(x) = √x
at x = 81
f(81) = 9
f ' (x) = 1/(2√x)
f ' (81) = 1/18
linear approximation
L(x) = f(81) + f ' (81) (x - 81)
= 9 + 1/18(x - 81)
= 9 + x/18 - 9/2
= 4.5 + (x / 18)
L(80.8) = 4.5 + (80.8/18)
= 4.5 + 4.48888
= 8.9889
at x = 81
f(81) = 9
f ' (x) = 1/(2√x)
f ' (81) = 1/18
linear approximation
L(x) = f(81) + f ' (81) (x - 81)
= 9 + 1/18(x - 81)
= 9 + x/18 - 9/2
= 4.5 + (x / 18)
L(80.8) = 4.5 + (80.8/18)
= 4.5 + 4.48888
= 8.9889
