Answer:

  m = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

For f(x) = 2x² you want to find the slope m using ...

  m = (f(x+h) -f(x))/h

at x=3.

Filling in the function definition and its arguments, we have ...

  m = (2(x+h)² -2x²)/h = (2x² +4hx +2h² -2x²)/h = 4x +2h

The value of this as h goes to zero is ...

  m = 4x

At x=3, the slope is ...

  m = 4·3 = 12

_____

The attached graph shows a numerical estimate of the slope (f'(3)=12) and the line with that slope through the point P(3, 18). The line certainly appears to be tangent to the curve at that point.

What is four hundred twenty times six
lianna [129]
To do this without a calculator, it may be easier to break the number into smaller parts.
420 * 6
= (400 * 6) + (20 * 6)
= 2400 + 120
= 2520

Hope this helps! :)
