Calculus – Linear Equations Practice Set · 3
This lesson finds the equation of the tangent line to a cubic position function at a specific point. Students apply the power rule to differentiate, evaluate the derivative for the slope, and use point-slope form to write the tangent line equation.
In this lesson, you will learn to:
• Differentiate a cubic polynomial using the power rule
• Evaluate a function and its derivative at a given input value
• Apply point-slope form to write the equation of a tangent line
• Verify a tangent line equation by checking both the point and slope conditions
