f. 0, if it has a variable (it does not a constant, it doesn’t it is a constant)
Steps to solve the example (sr is squarerootof):
Write the equation of the tangent line l(x) to f(x) = sec2x at x =pi/8
- first find f(pi/8) which gives you sr 2, which means you now know the point is pi/8, sr 2
- then find f’(x) which is 2sec2xtan2x
- next find f’(pi/8) which gives you the slope, which is 2 sr2
- nExt plug the stuff into the equation y- y1 = m(x-x1) which gives you
y-sr2 = 2sr2(x - pi/8) which simplifies to l(x) = 2sr2(x-pi/8) + sr2

Prove: f(x) = x^2 -7x + 7 is cont at x=4
(steps)
- find f’(x) which is f’(x) = 2x + 7
- then find f’(4) which is 1
- f’(4) exists therefore f is cont at x=4
Use one-sided limits to find the value(s) of the constants that make the piecewise functions differentiable at x = 2
f(x) = ax^3 when x <_ 2 and b(x-3)^2 + 10 when x>2
- first put in 2 for x in the og equations which gives you 8a = b + 10
- next differentiate both equations which gives you 3ax^2 and 2b(x-3)
- then put 2 into those equations, which gives you 6a = -b or -6a = b
- then substitute -6a in for b in the first equation which gives you 8a = -6(a) +10 which simplifies to a = 5/7
- then find b by substituting a in to the second equation, which gives you -6(5/7) = b which simplifies to -30/7
