The idea is to use the tangent line to
at
in order to approximate
.
We have


so the linear approximation to
is

Hence
and
.
Then

Answer:
f(10) = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4(x - 8)
Let x = 10
f(10) = 4 ( 10-8)
= 4 ( 2)
= 8
($3.91)(0.09) = $0.3519
$3.91 + 0.3519 = $4.2619 per gallon
if you're looking for the total expense next year:
($4.2619)(370 gallons) = $1,576.903
