In your situation you said that
Putting those together, you'd have
because
.
To evaluate the difference quotient, first find each piece on it's own:
because
no matter what your x-value is.
So putting those together:

Remember that the difference quotient is basically finding the slope of something. Since you were given that the slope is 0, the difference quotient should work out to match that.

Answer:
A $40.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer choice a is a function because none of its x values repeat at all. There is only one -4 in the function. and same with all the x values
18 (m + 4/9) - 16 = 118 Get rid of the parentheses by multiplying 18 * M + 4/9
18M + 8 - 16 = 118 Subtract 8 - 16
18M - 8 = 118 Add 8 to both sides
18M = 118 + 8 Add 118 + 8
18M = 126 Divide 126/18
M = 7
