Kindly show working of above question
Then determine what happens when ∆x approaches 0
Slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) from algebra=
[f(3+∆x) -f(3)]
---------------- =
(3+∆x)-3
f(3+∆x) -f(3)
-----------------
∆x
As ∆x->0, then this expression approaches [f(3)-f(3)]/0 or 0/0.
Evaluating this limit depends on the function.
As ∆x-> 0, the chord gets closer to the tangent line , and the fraction approaches the slope of the tangent line.
Hoping this helps!
m=[f(3+delta x) -f(3)] /(3+delta x) - 3]
if delta x ------>0
then,m=0/0 which is UNDIFINED.
God bless you.
