Solution
The first step in solving 3.3 problem number 80 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: or the function compute each average rate of change: (a) From 1 to 2 (b) From 1 to 1.5 (c) From 1 to 1.1 (d) From 1 to 1.01 (e) From 1 to 1.001 (f) Use a graphing utility to graph each of the secant lines along with . (g) What do you think is happening to the secant lines? (h) What is happening to the slopes of the secant lines? Is there some number that they are getting closer to? What is that number?f1x2 = x2
From the textbook chapter Properties of Functions you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
