What are the uses of derivatives?
A derivative of a function represents that equation's slope at any given point on its graph.
How do you find the slope of a function?
Need two points. m = slope. (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2) m = Y2 - Y1/X2 - X1 ==============Or, if function is in this form...... Y =mX + b ======== Read off of function, or get function is this form.
Is the first derivative of a function is a constant then its graph is?
A line. The derivative of a function is its slope. If the slope is a constant then the graph is a line.
What is a derivative graph?
A derivative graph tracks the slope of a function.
What is a derivative in calculus?
When you take the derivative of a function, you are seeking a variation of that function that provides you with the slope of the tangent (instantaneous slope) at any value of (x). For example, the derivative of the function f(x)=x^2 is f'(x)=2x. Notice that the derivative is denoted by the apostrophe inside the f and (x). Also note that at x=0, f'(x)=0, which means that at x=0 the slope of the tangent is zero, which is correct for the function y=x^2.
What are uses of derivatives?

What are the uses of derivatives?
A derivative of a function represents that equation's slope at any given point on its graph.
What does the derivative of a function mean?
The derivative of a function is another function that represents the slope of the first function, slope being the limit of delta y over delta x at any two points x1,y1 and x2,y2 on the graph of the function as delta x approaches zero.
Write a function represents the line that contains the point 2 and 12 and has a slope of-3?
As a straight line equation: y = -3x+18 in slope intercept form
What is the slope of the line represented by each function what is the y-intercept for each function?
In the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear function.
What does the m in slope stand for?
Nothing it just represents slope.
What does slope of position time graph represents?
It represents the velocity of the object.
What is the slope of a function?
The slope of a function is the y-intercept or the change in y, over the change in x.
What is the equation of a line in slope-intercept form?
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is given by y = mx + b, where "m" represents the slope of the line and "b" represents the y-intercept.
What is the slope of constant velocity?
The Slope (which represents acceleration) of a constant velocity graph is Zero.
What does a slope of a time graph represent?
The slope of a velocity-time graph represents acceleration.
Where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept?
In a slope intercept form of the equation of a straight line in the 2-dimensional coordinate plane.
