Answer:

x = 3y + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the relationship between x and y before finding the y-intercept.

0-(-1) = 1

1-0 = 1

2-1 = 1

1-(-2) = 3

4-1 = 3

7-4 = 3

As x increases by 1, y increases by 3.

At x = 0, y is already 1. Thus:

x = 3y + 1

Answer:

$f'(x)=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

$f(x)=\frac{4}{\sqrt x}$

And we want to find the derivative using the limit process.

The definition of a derivative as a limit is:

$\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Therefore, our derivative would be:

$\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{4}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{4}{\sqrt x}}{h}$

First of all, let's factor out a 4 from the numerator and place it in front of our limit:

$=\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{4(\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x})}{h}$

Place the 4 in front:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h}$

Now, let's multiply everything by (√(x+h)(√(x))) to get rid of the fractions in the denominator. Therefore:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h}(\frac{\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})$

Distribute:

$=4\lim_{h \to 0}\frac{({\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})\frac{1}{\sqrt{x+h}}-(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)\frac{1}{\sqrt x}}{h({\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x})}$

Simplify: For the first term on the left, the √(x+h) cancels. For the term on the right, the (√(x)) cancel. Thus:

$=4 \lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sqrt x-(\sqrt{x+h})}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt{x}) }$

Now, multiply both sides by the conjugate of the numerator. In other words, multiply by (√x + √(x+h)). Thus:

$= 4\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{\sqrt x-(\sqrt{x+h})}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt{x}) }(\frac{\sqrt x +\sqrt{x+h})}{\sqrt x +\sqrt{x+h})}$

The numerator will use the difference of two squares. Thus:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x-(x+h)}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Simplify the numerator:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x-x-h}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}\\=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{-h}{h(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Both the numerator and denominator have a h. Cancel them:

$=4 \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x+h}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+h})}$

Now, substitute 0 for h. So:

$=4 ( \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x+0}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x+0})})$

Simplify:

$=4( \frac{-1}{(\sqrt{x}\sqrt x)(\sqrt x+\sqrt{x})})$

(√x)(√x) is just x. (√x)+(√x) is just 2(√x). Therefore:

$=4( \frac{-1}{(x)(2\sqrt{x})})$

Multiply across:

$= \frac{-4}{(2x\sqrt{x})}$

Reduce. Change √x to x^(1/2). So:

$=-\frac{2}{x(x^{\frac{1}{2}})}$

Add the exponents:

$=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$

And we're done!

$f(x)=\frac{4}{\sqrt x}\\f'(x)=-\frac{2}{x^\frac{3}{2}}$
