For each function f and value in Exercises 35鈥44, use a sequence of approximations to estimate . Illustrate your work with an appropriate sequence of graphs of secant lines.
Differentiation review: Without using the chain rule find the derivative of each of the function f that follows some algebra may be required before differentiating
Find the derivatives of the functions in Exercises 21鈥46. Keep in mind that it may be convenient to do some preliminary algebra before differentiating.
For each function graphed in Exercises 65-68, determine the values of at which fails to be continuous and/or differentiable. At such points, determine any left or right continuity or differentiability. Sketch secant lines supporting your answers.
