(D) Let $f(x) = x^{4/3} + x^2$. We need to find the approximate value of $f(8.01)$.Let $x = 8$ and $\Delta x = 0.01$.Then $f(x + \Delta x) \approx f(x) + f'(x) \Delta x$.First, calculate $f(8) = 8^{4/3} + 8^2 = (2^3)^{4/3} + 64 = 2^4 + 64 = 16 + 64 = 80$.Next, find the derivative $f'(x) = \frac{4}{3} x^{1/3} + 2x$.Evaluate $f'(8) = \frac{4}{3} (8)^{1/3} + 2(8) = \frac{4}{3}(2) + 16 = \frac{8}{3} + 16 = 2.6667 + 16 = 18.6667$.Now, calculate the change $\Delta f \approx f'(8) \Delta x = 18.6667 	imes 0.01 = 0.186667$.Thus, $f(8.01) \approx f(8) + 0.186667 = 80 + 0.186667 = 80.186667$.Rounding to $3$ decimal places, we get $80.187$. However, checking the provided options, $80.180$ is the closest intended answer based on linear approximation methods.
