Use the definition of the derivative to differentiate the following function: f(x) 1 x + 2
For the function f(x)= 5x-1 , Use the limit definition of the derivative to find f (2) Note: You should first use find the derivation of the function; then replace x by 2 in the final answer.
Using the definition of the derivative, find f'(x) for the following function. 3. f(x) = x2 + x - 1 the definition of the derivative f'(x) = lim f(x+h)-f(x) h h-0 What is the slope of tangent line to this curve at x = -1?
Let f(x) = 3x3 - 24 - 1 Use the limit definition of the derivative to calculate the derivative of f: f'(x) = Use the same formula from above to calculate the derivative of this new function (i.e. the second derivative of f): f''(x) =
5x + 1 Use the definition of the derivative to find the derivative of the function f(x) = *-*2. Then find all x-values (if any) where the tangent line is horizontal. If the tangent line is horizontal for all X, write R for your answer. If the tangent line is never horizontal, write None for your answer Answer 3 Points Keypad 11 1'(x) = 2 Tangent is horizontal at x = Prev Nex If f(3) = -1, f(3) = 17,...
