the derivative exists for each point in the domain. the graph must be a smooth line or curve for the derivative to exist. in other words, the graph looks like a line if you zoom in. zoom in = looks like linear line
equation of the tangent line:
the line tangent to the curve of f(x) at x = a can be represented in point slope form: y - f(a) = f'(a)(x - a)
horizontal tangent lines: when does a function have a horizontal tangent line?
the slope of a horizontal tangent line is zero. to find where a function has a horizontal tangent line, we set the derivative equal to zero. generally are min/max
