Let f(x)=√ ( x ). Compute the difference quotient for f(x) at a=29 with h=25?
Let f(x)=√ ( x ). Compute the difference quotient for f(x) at a=29 with h=25?
The difference quotient is =
I got (sqrt54-sqrt25)/25 but it is not right.

The difference quotient states that...
(f(x + h) - f(x))/h
Given the values of a and h, we obtain...
(f(54) - f(29))/25
= (√54 - √29)/25 [Check your work carefully if you substituted the values correctly!]
≈ 0.0785
Good luck!
