Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Solve for a
That means ----> Isolate the variable a
Factor 3 in the numerator right side

Simplify right side

subtract a both sides


subtract 1 both sides


Rewrite

Answer:
1/64
Step-by-step explanation:
F(3) means to use 3 in place of x in the given equation.
f(x) = (1/4)^x
f(3) = (1/4)^3
Either use exponents rules:
= 1^3 / 4^3
= 1 / 64
or just use the meaning of exponents
= 1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4
= 1/64
Hello,
f(x)-f(a)= -3x²-5x+1-(-3a²-5a+1)=-3(x²-a²)-5(x-a)=-3(x-a)(x+a)-5(x-a)
=-(x-a)(3(x+a)+5)
=-(x-a)(3x+3a+5)
lim (f(x)-f(a))/(x-a)=- lim (3x+3a+5)=3a+3a+5=-6a-5
if a=1==>-6*1-5=-11
Otherwise
f'(x)=-6x-5
f'(1)=-6-5=-11
