Answer:

12.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Pythagorean Theorem is 'a' squared + 'b' squared = 'c' squared. So let's call the base of this triangle, which is 3, 'a' and the length, which is the hypotenuses, 'c'. Now we need to plug it in. So, we square 3 and square 13. It's now (9+b=169). Solve the equation and you get b^2=160. So now we solve for the square root. And the answer is 12.6491106407 which you can round to 12.65

Fill in the given values and simplify.

\dfrac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h}=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{x+h}-\dfrac{1}{x}}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{x-(x+h)}{h\cdot x(x+h)}\\\\=\dfrac{-1}{x(x+h)}
