Question

The slope of the tangent line to the graph of the exponential function y = 2^x at the point (0, 1) is lim x to 0 (2^x - 1)/x. Estimate the slope to three decimal places.

Answer 1

Okay, do you know how to do limits?

Answer 2

They want you to plug in numbers really close to 0
Like 0.000001

Answer 3

yes, i just start took limit class today :)

Answer 4

nice to talk to you again, that's very surprising

Answer 5

Well, for this, what I would do is plug in 0.000001 and -0.00001

Answer 6

Get closer to 0 until thee digits don't change.
