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}

A model car has a scale factor of 1/64. The diameter of a tire on the model is 0.39. So, the diameter of the tire on an actual c
Andre45 [30]
Answer: 24.96 inches.

This model car is having 1/64 scale which means the actual car is 64 times longer. To know the diameters of the actual car, you just need to divide the diameter of model car with the scale. If the diameter of the model is 0.39 inch then the calculation is:
Diameter of actual car x scale = diameter of model 
Diameter of actual car = diameter of model / scale = 0.39 inch / (1/64)=  24.96 inch.
