Answer:
224
Step-by-step explanation:
We will need the following rules for derivative:
Sum rule.
Constant multiple rule.
Power rule.
Slope of y=x is 1.
by sum rule.
by constant multiple rule.
by power rule.
Now we need to find the derivative function evaluated at x=9.
In case you wanted to use the formal definition of derivative:
Or the formal definition evaluated at x=a:
Let's use that a=9.
We need to find f(9+h) and f(9):
(used foil or the formula (x+a)(x+a)=x^2+2ax+a^2)
Combine like terms:
Ok now back to our definition:
Simplify by doing 1044-1044:
Each term has a factor of h so divide top and bottom by h:
