Physics

The general equation for propagation of uncertainty forindependent variables is given in
Appendix B-1 of the text (equation B-1). Consider the functionF = 5x3 + 4xy, where x = 2.00 ± 0.01
and y = 3.00 ± 0.02, and x and y are independent variables.Calculate F including its uncertainty.
Calculate the uncertainty in F using equation B-1 by derivingthe equations for the partial derivatives
and then evaluating the derivatives for the values of x and ygiven. Report F rounded to the correct
number of significant figures.
