Answer:

-5 - h

Step-by-step explanation:

ƒ(x) = 1 + 5x - x²

[f(5 + h) -f(5)]/h

= [1 + 5(5 + h) - (5 + h)² - 1 - 5(5) +5²]/h

= (25 + 5h - 25 - 10h - h² - 25 + 25)/h

= (-5h - h²)/h

= -5 - h

The difference quotient is -5 - h.

undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

We have points

(-7,2) (-7,-7)

m = (-7-2) /(-7--7)

= -9/(-7+7)

= -9/0

This is undefined

We have points

(-8,-3) (6,-3)

m = (-3--3) /(6--8)

= (-3+3/(6+8)

= 0/14
