(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer

the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5

Can someone please help me with this problem?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

f'(1) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x^2 -2x +3

Take the derivative

f'(x) = 2 * 2x - 2 * 1

f'(x) = 4x -2

f'(1) = 4(1) -2

      =4-2

       =2
