Problem: Suppose that f(x) is a function with f(20) = 345 and f'(20) =6.
Estimate f(22).

Answer:

I guess we can say that:
f(22) = f(20) + change in f(x)
f(22) = f(20) + f'(20) dx
f(22) = 345 + (6)(2)
f(22) = 357

Please advise if this is correct, or provide assistance with correcting same.
Thanks so much.
