Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

Step 1: Define

Identify.

f(-2.4) = -1

f(-1.9) = -8

Step 2: Differentiate

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m.

  1. [Derivative] Set up [Slope Formula]:                                                           [tex]\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
  2. Substitute in coordinates:                                                                           [tex]\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx \frac{-8 - -1}{-1.9 - -2.4}[/tex]
  3. Evaluate:                                                                                                       [tex]\displaystyle f'(-2.4) \approx -14[/tex]
