Question

If f(x) = 3x + 7, find

f(a + h)- f(a)
h
Transcribed Image Text:f(a + h)- f(a) h
Expert Solution
Step 1

we have been given the function f(x) = 3x + 7 

we have to use the formula 

f(a+h)-f(a)h          (1) 

Step 2

first we will find the value f(a+h) 

f(a+h) = 3(a+h) +7 

 f(a+h) =3a + 3h +7

next we will find the value of f(a)

f(a) = 3a + 7
