Question 93

The expansion of 1−4x \sqrt{1 - 4x}\,1−4x​ as far as the term x3 x^3\,x3 is 1−2x−2x2−4x31 - 2x - 2x^2 - 4x^31−2x−2x2−4x3.

Use your expansion to find an estimate for 96\sqrt{96}96​, correct to five decimal places, and compare this with the value of 96 \sqrt{96}\,96​ given by your calculator.
