By the definition of the derivative,

f'(x)=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h

\implies y'=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{(4(x+h)^2-9(x+h)-6)-(4x^2-9x-6)}h

Simplify the numerator:

4(x+h)^2-9(x+h)-6=4(x^2+2xh+h^2)-9(x+h)-6

=4x^2+8xh+4h^2-9x-9h-6

Subtracting 4x^2-9x-6 removes all the terms here not involving h, so the limit reduces to

y'=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{8xh+4h^2-9h}h

Cancel the factor h in the numerator and denominator:

y'=\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}(8x+4h-9)

As h\to0, we're left with

\boxed{y'=8x-9}

Answer:

Sample proportion ; phat

x / n

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample proportion may be explained as a proportional representation of part of the population or larger sample which have a certain character or exhibit a particular trait.

The sample proportion is expressed Mathematically as ;

phat = x / n

x = number of subjects with a specified characteristic ;

n = total sample size

For instance ;

The proportion of black balls in a sample of 100 balls is 15 ; the sample proportion of bla k balls will be :

phat = x / n = 15 / 100 = 0.15
