Linear Approximation
In this algebra worksheet, students solve problems using estimation and the derivative. They calculate the critical points, domain and indicated intervals. They calculate the first and second derivative. There are 5 problems.
Curated OER
Linear Approximation
Pupils practice examining the tangent to a function to estimate the value of the function near the point of tangency. They view errors associated with those approximations, determine overestimates and find intervals that guarantee a...
Curated OER
Calculus
Students make an inquiry with the aid of technology into the concept of functions. The emphasis of the instructional activity is on the interplay between the geometric and analytic information.
