Question
Use linear approximation, i.e. the tangent line, to approximate
Let f(x)
-
X
1
and find the equation of the tangent line to f(x) at a "nice" point near 0.501.

0.501
c) Now use this equation to approximate
as follows:
a) What is a "nice" x-value, (one that is easy to evaluate), close to 0.501 ?
b) What is the linearization (tangent line equation) at that x-value? (Use L(x) )
