( a,f( a) ) ,( i . e. f( a) ) f( x) f( a) i f( a)= l m x a x a
In this equation, we are saying find the slope of the tangent line between two points when you add almost zero to go from the first x0 value to the next.
i f( x0)= l m =
h 0
f( x0 + h) f( x0) h
The formula above means This formula represents the Find the slope between the points (x,f(x)) and (a,f(a)) such same idea as version 1. We are saying that the points are that the point (x,f(x)) gets infinitesimally close to (a,f(a)) practically identical because we only moved an extremely small amount over. Point one ( x0,f( x0) ) and point two x0 + h,f( x0 + h) ( ) so the
x= ( x0 + h) x0 = h
