A curve passes through the point (4, 8) and satisfies the differential equation dy/dx = 1/ (2x + rootx) , Use a step-by-step method with a step length of 0.3 to estimate the value of y at x = 4.6 . Give your answer to four decimal places.

h dy/dx (4) = 0.03y(4.3) = 8+0.03 = 8.03y(4.6) = y(4.3) + 0.3 dy/dx(4.3) = 8.0581 to 4 d.p
