\dfrac{f(x+h)+f(x)}{h}

Replace f(x) and f(x+h) by using the equation given for the problem.

=\dfrac{(2(x+h)^2-(x+h)-1)-(2x^2-x-1)}{h}

Open all parenthesis

= \dfrac{2x^2+4xh+2h^2-x-h-1-2x^2+x+1}{h}

Factor the h

= \dfrac{h(4x+2h-1)+2x^2-2x^2+1-1+x-x}{h}

Other terms not in the parenthesis cancel each other out

\dfrac{h(4x+2h-1)}{h}

Now, simplify

=4x+2h-1

Tim answered all the questions on his math test but got 10 answers wrong. He received 4 points for every correct answer, and the
charle [14.2K]
4x = 76
Where x is how many awnsers he got correct and 4 how many points each correct question awnsered.

Now you just have to isolate x by dividing both sides of the equation by 4

4x/4 = 76/4
x = 19

So he got 19 questions right and 10 awnsers wrong. In total there were 29 questions on his test
