The instantaneous rate of change of the function f(x) = −4x² − 3x + 1 at the point x = -3 is 21.
<h3>What is the instantaneous rate of change of the function at the given point?</h3>
The instantaneous rate of change is simply the change in the derivative value at a specific point.
Given the data in the question;
- f(x) = −4x² − 3x + 1
- Point x = -3
To determine the instantaneous rate of change of the function, first find the derivative of the function.
f(x) = −4x² − 3x + 1
Applying sum rule, with respect to x
d/dx[ -4x² ] + d/dx[ -3x ] + d/dx[ 1 ]
[ 2 × -4x¹ ] + [ 1 × -3x⁰ ] + d/dx[ 1 ]
[ -8x ] + [ -3 ] + d/dx[ 1 ]
-8x - 3 + d/dx[ 1 ]
Differentiate using constant rule
-8x - 3 + [ 0 ]
-8x - 3
f'(x) = -8x - 3
Next, plug x = -3 into the derivative and simplify.
f'(x) = -8x - 3
f'(-3) = -8(-3) - 3
f'(-3) = 24 - 3
f'(-3) = 21
Therefore, the instantaneous rate of change of the function f(x) = −4x² − 3x + 1 at the point x = -3 is 21.

I can't exactly SHOW you where to put the numbers, but I can teach you the process of how you'd do it.
First off, label your number line from 0-15, as it is the simplest. (You'd be counting by 1 per each line). Then, follow this process:
1) Look at the first digit of your value. Place your number according to your first digit. (So, you'd put 0.365 at the 0 line and 3.521 at the 3 line)
2) Look at the second digit of your value. Imagine that between the two main lines (0-1 and 3-4) that there is 10 smaller lines. Then, you can place your number according to your second digit. (So, you'd put 0.365 at the 0.3 line and 3.521 at the 3.5 line).
3) Look at the third digit of your value. Imagine that between the two smaller lines (0.3-0.4 and 3.5-3.6) that there is 10 smaller lines. Then, you can place your number according to your third digit. (So, you'd put 0.365 at the 0.36 line and 3.521 at the 3.52 line).
4) Look at the fourth digit of your value. Imagine that between the two even smaller lines (0.36-0.37 and 3.52-3.53) that there is 10 smaller lines. Then, you can place your number according to your fourth digit. (So you'd place 0.365 at the 0.365 line and 3.521 at the 3.521 line)

We can assume that this growth rate can be expressed as y = mx + b as long as the slope is constant, because a quadratic or exponential formula wouldn't make much sense in this situation. If it is growing at least 2 inches a month, the slope (m) will be 2. As x (month) increases by 1 month, y (plant's height) increases by 2 inches. You could make it more, but as long as you plot the points in such a way that the slope for these points are 2 or higher, you will get the answer correct.
