Answer:

-5 - h

Step-by-step explanation:

ƒ(x) = 1 + 5x - x²

[f(5 + h) -f(5)]/h

= [1 + 5(5 + h) - (5 + h)² - 1 - 5(5) +5²]/h

= (25 + 5h - 25 - 10h - h² - 25 + 25)/h

= (-5h - h²)/h

= -5 - h

The difference quotient is -5 - h.

= 7

if 4/5 fraction then
5^2-4/5+2
= 25 - 4/5 + 2
= 27 - 4/5
= 26 5/5 - 4/5
= 26 1/5
= 26.2

mr Goodwill [35]

The answer for A is,

$a = 5 + \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{5} } - \sqrt{6} - \sqrt{6b}$

And the answer for B is,

$b = - 1 + \frac{5 + \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{5} } - a }{ \sqrt{6} }$

hope it helps.

sorry of its wrong.
