Question

calculus 1. Help Please

Answer 1

The formula for linearization L(x) is:
L(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x-a)

Answer 2

yes, I know that formula.

Answer 3

I dont know how to apply the numbers to the formula :/

Answer 4

\[\large \color{royalblue}{a=-8}\]\[\large \color{orangered}{f(-8)=\sqrt[3]{-8}}\]

\[\large L(x)=\color{orangered}{f(a)}+f'(a)(x-\color{royalblue}{a})\]
Hmm it seems pretty straight forward.
Plug in the missing pieces. You'll just need to find f'(a)

Answer 5

What number I should pulg for f'(x)?
