Answer:

C. f'(x) = lim(h→0) [(f(x+h) − f(x)) / h]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first derivative is the slope between two points as the distance between those points approaches 0. Slope is Δy/Δx. Choice D is a valid way to write the first derivative. It is the slope between the points (x, f(x)) and (x+h, f(x+h)). Choice C is not a valid definition.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be:

lim h--> 0

[f(x+h) - f(x)]/h

That is,

In place of f(h), there should have been f(x)

If f(x) = 3x - 2 and g(x) = 2x + 1, find (f - g)(x)

morpeh [17]

Answer:

(f-g)(x) = x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 3x-2

and

g(x) = 2x+1

We have to find (f-g)(x)

So,

(f-g)(x) = f(x)-g(x)

= 3x-2 - (2x+1)

= 3x-2-2x-1

=x-3

Hence,

(f-g)(x) = x-3

Terri will replace the tile and carpet in her apartment. How many total square feet of tile and carpet must Terri purchase in or

lana66690 [7]

Answer:Terry need to purchase $195\ ft^{2}$ of tile and $663\ ft^{2}$ of carpet for a total area of $858\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the square feet of tile

The area of the tile is equal to

$A=(15)(26-13)=195\ ft^{2}$

step 2

Find the square feet of carpet

Remember that

$38\frac{1}{2}\ ft=38.5\ ft$

The area of the carpet is equal to

$A=(38.5)(26)-195-(11)(13)\\A= 1,001-195-143\\A=663\ ft^{2}$
