Find the difference quotient f(x)−(3)−3 when ()=1+4−5^2. Simplify the expression fully as if you were going to compute the limit as →3. In particular, cancel common factors of −3 in the numerator and denominator if possible. (Use symbolic notation and fractions where needed.)

Sagot :

The difference quotient of the expression will be 4.

How to find the quotient?

f(x) = 5 + 5x + 4x²

f(3) = 5 + 5(3) + 4(3)³

= 56

Now [f(x) - f(3)]/(x - 3) will be:

= (4x² + 5x + 5 - 56)/(x - 3)

= (4x² + 5x - 51)/(x - 3)

= (4x² + 17x - 12x - 5)/(x - 3)

= (4x + 17)(x - 3)/(x - 3)

= 4x + 17

The difference quotient will be:

g(x + h) = 4(x + h) + 17

= [g(x + h) - g(x)]/h

= (4x + 4h + 17 - 4x - 17)/h

= 4h/h

= 4
