Title: Functions and Graphs
Book Description: The purpose of this lab is to experiment with some of the general applications of the derivative to the study of the behavior of functions. This includes their critical behavior (local extrema, inflections) and linearization technique which, using Newton's Method will yield a way to approximate roots of equations: f(x) = 0. The reader may investigate built-in examples or supply her own functions.
