Move Those Chains

In this activity, students will explore the Chain Rule. Students are asked to make a conjecture of the derivative of f(x) = (2x + 1)2 based on the Power Rule. They are then asked to graph their derivative function and compare it to the graph of f´(x). They will then examine "true" statements abou...
