Suppose that f(x)f(x) is a function with f(155)=52f(155)=52 and f′(155)=4f′(155)=4. Estimate f(160)f(160).

By the mean value theorem, the linear approximation of a function around \(x=a\) is

\(L(x)=f(a)+f'(a)(x-a)\)

so the desired approximation can be computed with

\(f(160)\approx f(155)+f'(155)(160-155)=72\)
