Answer

$\color{blue}{\bf{(a) 4x+4h+11 }}$ $\color{blue}{\bf{(b) 4h }}$ $\color{blue}{\bf{(c) 4 }}$

Work Step by Step

We are given the function: $\bf{f(x)= 4x + 11 }$ $\bf{(a)}$ We are asked to find $f(x+h)$ $ 4 (x+h) +11 $ $4x+4h+11$ $\color{blue}{\bf{ 4x+4h+11 }}$ $\bf{(b)}$ We are asked to find $f(x+h)-f(x)$ $ 4x+4h+11 -( 4x + 11 )$ $ 4x+4h+11 -4x - 11 $ $\color{blue}{\bf{ 4h }}$ $\bf{(c)}$ We are asked to find $\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $\dfrac{ 4h }{h}$ $\color{blue}{\bf{ 4 }}$
