The derivative f(5) gives the function's instantaneous rate of change at the point x=5, i.e. it is a measure of how much the function's value changes in the vicinity of x=5.

In the graph of the function, this derivative is equal to the slope of the tangent to the graph of the function at the point x=5.

The red tangent line has the equation
y = kx + m, where k = f'(-5).

Because the tangent is sloping upwards, it has a positive gradient and therefore f(5)0.

At the point x=1, the tangent slopes downwards and this means that f(1)0.

The red tangent line has the equation
y = kx + m, where k = f'(1).
