Perhaps the point of this exercise is to help you understand that the average slope computed by the first expression approaches the instantaneous slope computed by the second expression. This happens when a approaches x and when h approaches zero.
In this problem, where the function is a straight line, the slope is a constant (-3), so the average slope and the instantaneous slope are the same everywhere (for all values of x, a, h).
If r = 20, then plug 20 into the equation.
so instead of r - 9, it's 20 - 9
20 - 9 = 11

Answer:
h(1) = 1.81 and h(2) = 21.44
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets read the problem and solve it
- Evaluate means find the value, so evaluate h(x) means find the value
of it at the given values of x
∵ h(x) = 2.8x³ + 0.01x² - 1
∵ x = 1 and x = 2
- Then find h(1) by substitute x by 1 and find h(2) by substitute x by 2
# At x = 1
∴ h(1) = 2.8(1)³ + 0.01(1)² - 1
∴ h(1) = 2.8(1) + 0.01(1) - 1
∴ h(1) = 2.8 + 0.01 - 1
∴ h(1) = 1.81
# At x = 2
∴ h(2) = 2.8(2)³ + 0.01(2)² - 1
∴ h(2) = 2.8(8) + 0.01(4) - 1
∴ h(2) = 22.4 + 0.04 - 1 ⇒ simplify
∴ h(2) = 21.44
* h(1) = 1.81 and h(2) = 21.44
