asked 10/01/20I have been trying to solve these two problems for hours
find difference quotient f(a+h)-f(a)/ h....
Question 1)
f(a) = a/a+3
f(a+h)= a+h/a+h+3
f(a+h)-f(a)/h=????
Question 2)
(a) = 8a^2+5
f(a+h)= 8(a+h)^2+5
f(a+h)-f(a)/h=????

Question 2)
(a) = 8a2+5
f(a+h)= 8(a+h)2+5 FOIL
=8(a2+2ah+h2)+5 Distribute
8a2+16ah+8h2+5
f(a+h)-f(a)
8a2+16ah+8h2+5-(8a2+5) Distribute
8a2+16ah+8h2+5-8a2-5 Simplify
16ah+8h2
[f(a+h)-f(a)]/h
(16ah+8h2)/h Factor out an h
h(16a+8h)/h Cancel out and h
16a+8h
