Which one you choose? lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
My answer is 2.5
sam (.sam.):
Nope
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the question is what is the slope at x = 0.
both lines meet up at this point.
since sam won't answer i won't either. guess again :)

You know that if you can find the equation, then differentiate it you'll get the answer
sam (.sam.):
Take (1,4) and (0,1)
m=3
Then use point slope formula
y-1=3(x-0)
y=3x+1
differentiate it you'll get
y=3
Which means
f'(x)=3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh ok I am following or some reason when I said 2.5 I meant to type 3 oh my goodness. Ok so just double checking 3 is the answer?
sam (.sam.):
There are 2 sides, so you'll have to do this again for the other side, the gradient is, -1/2
Equation will be
y=-1/2x +1
differentiate it you'll get -1/2
sam (.sam.):
So its 3 and -1/2
