The correct answer is -2.2%

Take 2.85-2.79 to get 0.06.

0.06 divided by 2.79= 0.0215.

0.0215•100= 2.15 or just 2.2.

This is a percentage decrease so the correct answer is -2.2%.

Use f’( x ) = lim With h ---> 0 [f( x + h ) - f ( x )]/h to find the derivative at x for the given function. 5-x²

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The derivative of the function f(x) is:

$f'(x)=-2x$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a function f(x) as:

$f(x)=5-x^2$

We have:

$f(x+h)=5-(x+h)^2\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x+h)=5-(x^2+h^2+2xh)$

( Since,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab$ )

Hence, we get:

$f(x+h)=5-x^2-h^2-2xh$

Also, by using the definition of f'(x) i.e.

$f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Hence, on putting the value in the formula:

$f'(x)= \lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5-x^2-h^2-2xh-(5-x^2)}{h}\\\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{5-x^2-h^2-2xh-5+x^2}{h}\\\\i.e.\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{-h^2-2xh}{h}\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} \dfrac{-h^2}{h}+\dfrac{-2xh}{h}\\\\f'(x)=\lim_{h \to 0} -h-2x\\\\i.e.\ on\ putting\ the\ limit\ we\ obtain:\\\\f'(x)=-2x$
