Step-by-step explanation:

-x+2y=-6

x-2y=6

x=2y+6

substitute in 2x-3y=11 gives us 2(2y+6)-3y=11

4y+12-3y=11

y=-1

-x+2(-1)=-6

-x=-4

x=4

$\text{Use}\ (a+b)^3=a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3\\\\f(x+h)\to\text{exchange x to x + h}\\\\f(x)=x^3+3x\\\\f(x+h)=(x+h)^3+3(x+h)\\\\f(x+h)=x^3+3x^2h+3xh^2+h^3+3x+3h\\\\\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{x^3+3x^2h+3xh^2+h^3+3x+3h-(x^3-3x)}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{x^3+3x^2h+3xh^2+h^3+3x+3h-x^3-3x}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{(x^3-x^3)+3x^2h+3xh^2+h^3+(3x-3x)+3h}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{3x^2h+3xh^2+h^3+3h}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{h(3x^2+3xh+h^2+3)}{h}\\\\=\boxed{3x^2+3xh+h^2+3}$
