The correct option is (d) 2.1623
To explain: Let, f(x,y) = log(x-log(y))
Now by differentiating,
\(\frac{∂f}{∂x}=\frac{1}{x-log(y)}\) and \(\frac{∂f}{∂y}=\frac{1}{y(x-log(y))}\)
Now, putting, x = 11, y = 10, δx=.01 and δy=.1
We get,
\(\frac{∂f}{∂x}∂f/∂x\)=1/8.69 and \(\frac{∂f}{∂y}∂f/∂y\)=1/86.9
Hence, df = 0.0023
Hence, f(x + δx, y + δy) = log(11.01 – log(10.1))= 2.16 + df = 2.1623.
