Find each of the following for

KATRIN_1 [288]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a)

$f(x+ h)=8x+8h+3$

(b)

$f(x+ h)-f(x)=8h$

(c)

$\dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=8$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as :

$f(x)=8x+3$

(a)

$f(x+ h)$

We will substitute (x+h) in place of x in the function f(x) as follows:

$f(x+h)=8(x+h)+3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=8x+8h+3$

(b)

$f(x+ h)-f(x)$

Now on subtracting the f(x+h) obtained in part (a) with the function f(x) we have:

$f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-(8x+3)\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8x+8h+3-8x-3\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)-f(x)=8h$

(c)

$\dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}$

In this part we will divide the numerator expression which is obtained in part (b) by h to get:

$\dfrac{f(x+ h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{8h}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=8$

Answer:

x^3+6x^2+9x

if you are trying to find the original function

if not, and you are trying to find the zeros is

x=-3

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply x(x+3)

x^2+3x

then multiply that by x+3 and that should give you the answer
