Let f(x) = x 3 . a. Compute the slope of the secant line joining the points
Question:
Let f(x) = x3.
a. Compute the slope of the secant line joining the points on the graph of f whose x coordinates are x = 1 and x = 1.1.
b. Use calculus to compute the slope of the line that is tangent to the graph when x = 1, and compare with the slope found in part (a).
