Question 5313: If f(x) = x^2-4x+7
a) Find f(x) using the definition of the derivative.
b) find the slope of the tangent line to the graph of f at x= 3 over 2
c) find the slope of the tangent line to the graph of f at x=2
Can you show me the steps to this so I can see how it is done
I really do appreciate your help
Thank You
