Te point Function
*
gradient of a function at a is the
gradient of the
tangent to the

at the same point .

ot that the obtained

gradient is
only an estimation .

* He
gradient is
positive when the
graph is
increasing
.

He
*
gradient is
negative when the
graph is
decreasing .

He
*
gradient is o at the maximum minimum pointess of the
graph .
