For each function f and value x = c in Exercises 35鈥44, use a sequence of approximations to estimate f'(c). Illustrate your work with an appropriate sequence of graphs of secant lines.

role="math" localid="1648705352169" f(x)=ex,c=0

Short Answer

Expert verified

We have approximated the slope by using the concept of the secant line.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

We have to use a sequence of approximations to estimate f'(c)

f(x)=ex,c=0

02

Step 2. Use sequence of approximation

Let,

h=1,0.5,0.1,0.01

Consider the expressions,

f(1)f(0)10=[e]11=1.718f(0.5)f(0)0.50=e0.510.5=1.297f(0.1)f(0)1.10=e0.1[1]0.1=1.051f(0.01)f(0)0.010=e0.01[1]0.01=1.005

The slope of tangent will be :

f(0)=1

The graph is ;

03

Step 3. First secant graph

Take c=0 , c+h=1, then the corresponding values are:

f(0)=1,f(1)=2.718

The secant line can be drawn as:

04

Step 4. Second secant graph

Take c=0 and c+h = 0.1 then the corresponding values are :

f(0)=1,f(0.1)=1.1051

The secant graph is :

05

Step 5. Third secant graph

Take c=0 and c+h=0.01, then the corresponding values are :

f(0)=1,f(0.01)=1.0101

The secant graph is :
