Question

Hi, I have some issue solving this problem using calculus (small variation and linear approximation). Can you help me? The result should be -1cm

Newton’s law of gravitation states that the force F of attraction between two particles
having masses m1 and m2 is given by F = Gm1m2/s2 where G is a constant and s is
the distance between the particles. If s = 20 cm, find approximately the change in s
that will increase F by 10%.
