Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The slope of a tangent line at a point on a curve represents the instantaneous rate of change of the function at that point. Therefore, we are looking for the point on the graph where the function has a slope of 2.2. This point must be on the curve and the only point that satisfies this condition is point Q. Therefore, choice B is the correct answer.
