QUESTION 3

3.1 𝑓(𝑥) = −3𝑥 + 1

𝑓(𝑥 + ℎ) = −3𝑥 − 6𝑥ℎ − 3ℎ + 1
𝑓(𝑥 + ℎ) = −3(𝑥 + ℎ) + 1 = −3𝑥 − 6𝑥ℎ − 3ℎ + 1

𝑓(𝑥 + ℎ) − 𝑓(𝑥)
𝑓 (𝑥) = lim
→ ℎ

−3𝑥 − 6𝑥ℎ − 3ℎ + 1 + 3𝑥 − 1 Substitution into correct formula.

𝑓 (𝑥) = lim
→ ℎ

−6𝑥ℎ − 3ℎ
𝑓 (𝑥) = lim Simplification
→ ℎ
ℎ(−6𝑥 − 3ℎ)
𝑓 (𝑥) = lim Common factor
→ ℎ

𝑓 (𝑥) = lim −6𝑥 − 3ℎ

QUESTION 4

4.1 𝑓(𝑥) = 0 => 𝑥 − 3𝑥 + 4 = 0 (𝑥 + 1)

(𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 + ∆𝑥 + 4) = 0 (𝑥 − 4𝑥 + 4)
∆𝑥 + 4𝑥 = 0𝑥  both x-values
∆𝑥 = −4𝑥
∆= −4
(𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 − 4𝑥 + 4) = 0
(𝑥 + 1)(𝑥 − 2)(𝑥 − 2) = 0
𝑥 = −1 𝑜𝑟 𝑥 = 2
∴ 𝑥 − 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑒𝑝𝑡𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑒(−1; 0) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (2; 0) (3)
4.2 𝑓 (𝑥) = 3𝑥 − 6𝑥  derivative = 0
 both x values
3𝑥 − 6𝑥 = 0  both y-values
3𝑥(𝑥 − 2) = 0
𝑥 = 0 𝑜𝑟 𝑥 = 2
𝑓(0) = (0) − 3(0) + 4 = 4
𝑓(2) = (2) − 3(2) + 4 = 0
∴ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑝𝑜𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑒 (0; 4) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (2,0) (3)
