Question
Do the graphs of the functions $f$ have tangent lines at the given points? If yes, what is the tangent line? $$f(x)=(x+2)^{3 / 5} \text { at } x=-2$$
Step 1
We can use the chain rule to do this. The chain rule states that the derivative of a composite function is the derivative of the outer function times the derivative of the inner function. Show more…
