Question

3. If the line tangent to the graph of the function f at the point (1,7) also passes through the point

Answer 1

Answer:

f'(-1)= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)= (7-(-2))/(1-(-2))=9/3=3

Slope of the tangent line in the given point equals f' at this point.

So,

f'(-1)= 3
