and its derivative on the closed interval [-2, 2].

Using Microcalc:

1. Choose Beginning Calculus from the initial menu and press .
2. Use the arrow keys to move to the menu item Graph y = F(y), press and .
3. At the prompt F(x) =, enter the formula abs(x^2-1)
4. and use the bounds

   x0 = -2 x1 = 2

   y0 = -4 y1 = 4

5. You will then see the graph of this function:

6. Press .
7. Use the arrow keys to move to Function Editor and press .
8. Use the arrow keys to move to Differentiate and press .
9. At each of the next five prompts, Source, F1, Variable, x, and Target, press .
10. Use the arrow keys to move to F2 and press ; doing this, the original function is still available.
11. At Execute, press and you will see the derivative of our original function in F2.
12. Use the arrow keys to move to F1 <<->> F2 and press to switch the contents of F1 and F2.
13. Press and use the arrow keys to move to Superimpose and press .
14. At the prompt F(x) =, just press and you will see the desired graphs:
