For each slope below,
enter the value correct to four decimal places.
Let
f ( x ) = 2 ln ( x ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}}={2}{\ln{{\left({x}\right)}}} f ( x ) = 2 ln ( x ) . Using the formula,
m = f ( x 2 ) − f ( x 1 ) x 2 − x 1 \displaystyle {m}=\frac{{{f{{\left({x}_{{{2}}}\right)}}}-{f{{\left({x}_{{{1}}}\right)}}}}}{{{x}_{{{2}}}-{x}_{{{1}}}}} m = x 2 − x 1 f ( x 2 ) − f ( x 1 ) , find the slope of the secant line on the graph of
f ( x ) \displaystyle {f{{\left({x}\right)}}} f ( x ) that connects the points
