Linear Approximations
In this section we will look at an application not of derivatives but of the tangent line to a function. Certainly, to get the tangent line we do have to take derivatives, thus in some way this is an application of derivatives as well.
Given a function, f ( x ) , we can determine its tangent at x = a . The equation of the tangent line, that we'll call L ( x ) for this discussion, is,
L ( x ) = f ( a ) + f ′ ( a ) ( x - a )
Take a look at the given graph of a function & its tangent line.
From the graph we can illustrates that near x = a the tangent line & the function have closely the similar graph. On instance we will utilizes the tangent line, L ( x ) , as an approximation to the function, f ( x ) , near x = a . In these cases we call the tangent line the linear approximation to the function at x = a .
Recognizes the absolute extrema & relative extrema for the given function. f ( x ) = x 2 on [-2, 2] Solution Following is the graph for this fun
A drug has a decay rate of k = - ¼ ln(¾) / hr. How soon after an initial dose of 1600 mg will the drug reach its minimum therapeutic value of 900 mg in the body?
Determine the tangent line to f ( x ) = 15 - 2x 2 at x = 1. Solution : We know from algebra that to determine the equation of a line we require either two points onto the li
