Answer:

d. vertical line

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with an undefined slope is a vertical line

Slope is the change in y over the change in x

When the slope is undefined, it means that the x does not change, which is a vertical line

For the function f(x) = 7/2x-16, what is the difference quotient for all nonzero values of h?

sergey [27]

Answer:

$\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16$

Required

The difference quotient for h

The difference quotient is calculated as:

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

Calculate f(x + h)

$f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16$

$f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}(x+h) - 16$

$f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16$

The numerator of $\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h}$ is:

$f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -(\frac{7}{2}x - 16)$

$f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -\frac{7}{2}x + 16$

Collect like terms

$f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{7}{2}h- 16 + 16$

$f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}h$

So, we have:

$\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h \div h$

Rewrite as:

$\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h * \frac{1}{h}$

$\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}$
