Study Guide Overview
This section covers slope fields, which visualize solutions to differential equations. It explains how to construct slope fields by calculating slopes at various points and drawing corresponding line segments. Examples demonstrate this process with differential equations like dy/dx = x + y and dy/dx = x/y. The concept of visualizing solutions using slope fields is emphasized.
