Use linear approximation to estimate the value of 3√262. 26 2 3 Express your answer a single fraction (for example, 16 729 16 729). Use the linear approximation to approximate (63)2/3.

Linear approximation techniques have often been applied to nonlinear mathematical programming models for computational efficiency reasons. Price-endogenous agricultural sector models and risk models ...

We study in detail the log-linear return approximation introduced by Campbell and Shiller (1988a). First, we derive an upper bound for the mean approximation error, given stationarity of the log ...
