Chapter 2: Q. 30 (page 166)

Sketch a graph of the associated slope function f' for each function f.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The graph of slope function is:

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

We are given the graph of a functionfand we need to find its associated slope functionf'.

02

Step 2. Finding the slope function

A good place to begin is by marking all the locations on the graph of f where the tangent line is horizontal and thus has slope 0. Thus the associated slope function f' is:
