Provide an appropriate response.Does the graph of f(x) =
have a tangent at the origin? Give reasons for your answer.
What will be an ideal response?
The graph does not have a tangent at the origin. The slope of the tangent lines as x approaches 0 from the left is -2, whereas the slope of the tangent lines as x approaches 0 from the right is 1. Since the one-sided limits are not equal, then, according to the limit definition of the slope of the tangent line, no tangent line exists.
