f ' ( x ) = 1 ( x + 1 ) 2

 

Explanation:

differentiating from first principles

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 

f ( x + h ) − f ( x ) h

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 x + h x + h + 1 − x x + 1 h

the aim now is to eliminate h from the denominator

f ' ( x ) = lim h =0  

( x + h ) ( x + 1 )− x ( x + h + 1) h ( x + 1 ) ( x + h + 1 )

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 x 2 + h x + x + h − x 2 − h x − x h ( x + 1 ) ( x+h + 1 )

f ' ( x ) = lim h → 0

 

h 1 h 1 ( x + 1 ) ( x + h +1 )

f ' ( x ) = 1 ( x + 1 ) 2

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

given the graph of f(x) then the graph of f(x) ± c is a vertical translation of f(x)

• if - c then a shift down of c units

• if + c then a shift up of c units

then for f(x) + 4 is a shift up of 4 units
