Test 2 Key

Part d asked you to trace the tangent to the function at $x=2$, and to justify the form of that line based on your choices. Some of you thought that I wanted to see the tangents to the derivative and second derivative function graphs. Nope!

So you should have observed that the tangent line has negative slope, and occurs at a point of inflection, as indicated by the second derivative.
