Answer:

The difference quotient is the quotient of the difference of the function values, f(x + h) - f(x), and the difference of the input values, (x + h) - x.

Given the function f(x) = -x + 21.

The different quotient will be : \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{(x+h)-x} =\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} = \frac{(-(x+h)+21)-(-x+21) }{h} = \frac{-x-h+21+x-21}{h} = \frac{-h}{h} = -1

We see that given the function f(x) = -x+21 and two input values of x and x + h, the difference quotient is -1.

pochemuha

Answer:

The number is 91

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the ones place digit and y be the tens place digit,

Then the number would be 10y + x,

We have,

y - x = 8

Possible values of y and x = { (8, 0), (9, 1) }

∵ 0 is not the digit of the number,

Hence, y = 9 and x = 1

Therefore, required number = 10(9) + 1 = 90 + 1 = 91
