Refer to the graph of y=f(x)=x2+x shown.
a) Find the slope of the secant line joining (2, f(2)) and (4, f(4)).
b) Find the slope of the secant line joining (2, f(2)) and (2+h, f(2+h)).
c) Find the slope of the graph at (2, f(2)).
d) Find the equation of the tangent line to the graph at (2, f(2)).
Find the slope of the secant line between x=a and x=a+h. Simplify the answer then find the slope of the tangent line by taking the limit of the slope of the secant line as h approaches 0.
f(theta)=cos (theta) for a= pi/6
A tank holds 1000 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in half hour. The values in the table show the volume V of water remaining in the tank (in gallons) after t minutes.
(a) If P is the point (15,250) on the graph of V find the slopes of the secant lines PQ when Q is the point on the graph with t=5,10,20,25, and 30.
(b) Estimate the slope of the tangent line at P by averaging the slopes of two secant lines.
(c) Use a graph of the function to estimate the slope of the tangent line at P. (This slope represents the rate at which the water is flowing from the tank after 15 minutes.)

Determine the slope of the secant line and explain its relationship to the moving object.arrow_forwardWhich of the lines in the following graph appear to be tangent lines? Why or why not? xy L1 L2 L3 L4 L5 L6 A coordinate system has a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. An undulating curve spans most of the length of the x-axis. A line segment rises from left to right and crosses the curve at L 1. A second line segment touches the curve at L 2. A third line segment touches the curve at L 3. A fourth line segment touches the curve at L 4. A fifth line segment is horizontal and crosses the curve at L 5. A sixth line segment touches the curve at L 6. Which of the lines in the following graph appear to be tangent lines? Select all that apply. A.Upper L 5 L5 B.Upper L 4 L4 C.Upper L 3 L3 D.Upper L 1 L1 E.Upper L 6 L6 F.Upper L 2arrow_forward
