Investigation 10: Graphing the Slope Function

Step A

You are asked to find the slope of the tangent at (x, y). This means you must find f /(x). Use the Power Rule to find the expression for the slope of the tangent. You are asked to complete the table for ten values of x. It might be a good idea to pick integer values ranging from say -4 to 5.
