@x = 2:
y' = 5 = slope

Let m(x) be the slope of the tangent line to the curve y = x^3 - 2x^2 + x at the point (x,y). Find the instantaneous rate of change of m(x) with respect to x at the point (2,2).
------------------
Take the derivative to get:
m(x) = 3x^2 - 4x + 1
----
Then slope at (2,2) = m(2) = 3*4 -4*2+1 = 5
