If g (x) = 1/x then [g (x+h) - g (x)] /h

Mathematics

Answer:

\dfrac{-1}{x(x+h)}, h\ne 0

Step-by-step explanation:

If g(x) = \dfrac{1}{x}, then g(x+h) = \dfrac{1}{x+h}. It follows that

  \begin{aligned} \\\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h} &= \frac{1}{h} \cdot [g(x+h) - g(x)] \\&= \frac{1}{h} \left( \frac{1}{x+h} - \frac{1}{x} \right)\end{aligned}

Technically we are done, but some more simplification can be made. We can get a common denominator between 1/(x+h) and 1/x.

  \begin{aligned} \\\frac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h} &= \frac{1}{h} \left( \frac{1}{x+h} - \frac{1}{x} \right)\\&=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x}{x(x+h)} - \frac{x+h}{x(x+h)} \right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x-(x+h)}{x(x+h)}\right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{x-x-h}{x(x+h)}\right) \\ &=\frac{1}{h} \left(\frac{-h}{x(x+h)}\right) \end{aligned}

Now we can cancel the h in the numerator and denominator under the assumption that h is not 0.

  = \dfrac{-1}{x(x+h)}, h\ne 0

Zina [86]

<u>Answer: </u>

The number of ways to form the committee is formed = 637065

<u>Solution: </u>

The number of combinations of n things such that m things taken together are given by:-

C_{(\boldsymbol{n}, \boldsymbol{m})}=\frac{n !}{m !(\boldsymbol{n}-\boldsymbol{m}) !}

Given Data:

A committee consisting of 4 faculty members and 5 students is to be formed.  There are 12 faculty members and 13 students eligible to serve on the committee.

Then, the number of ways to form the committee is formed given by :-

\begin{array}{l}{12 C_{4} \times 13 C_{5}} \\\\ {=\frac{12 !}{4 !(12-4) !} \times \frac{13 !}{5 !(13-5) !}} \\\\ {=\frac{12 !}{4 ! 8 !} \times \frac{13 !}{5 ! 8 !}} \\\\ {\frac{12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8 !}{27 \times 8 !} \times \frac{13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9 \times 8}{120 \times 8 !}} \\\\ {=637065}\end{array}

Hence, the number of ways to form the committee is formed = 637065
