The experimental data in the table below define y as a function
of x.
x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
y | 2.4 | 1.1 | 1 | 1.4 | 2.2 | 3.2 |
A. Let P be the point (1, 1.1). Find the slopes of the
secant lines PQ when Q is the point of the graph with
x coordinate x1.
B. Draw the graph of the function for yourself and estimate the slope of the
tangent line at P.
