SL2 - 10/24/16

Now that wwe know what derivatives are, we'll develop some techniques for dealing with more complex functions. Then we start looking at things other than power functions, beginning with exponentials. Can you tell that we are also reviewing everything that we've learned the past two years as we move through this unit? Don't shortchange your HW and thinking - we are in the home stretch!
