    In the last section, we saw that as the interval over which we calculated got smaller, the secant slopes approached the tangent slope.

The limit gives us better language with which to discuss the idea of “approaches.” The limit of a function describes the behavior of the function when the variable is near, but does not equal, a specified number.
