What is the Derivative? The Derivative represents _____________________________ • A) IN MATH
IN MATH Find the equation of the line tangent to the function at the point. at x = 2 EX: DEFN: The NORMAL to a curve is the line perpendicular to the tangent at a point Find the Normal to the curve above.
Determine the point(s) –if any – at which the given function has a HORIZONTAL tangent. IN MATH EX:
Example: Positive Integer Powers, Multiples, Sums, and Differences
