Asked by Esther

How do I solve this using the TERM BY TERM method?

If f(x)= (2x^2 - 5x - 3) / (3-x)

find f'(-8).
Answered by Damon
2(-8)^2 = 2*64 = 128
-5(-8) = 40
-3 = -3 now add
-------------
165 = numerator

3 - (-8) = 11

so
165/11
Answered by Steve
that's f(-8), but we want f'(-8)
f(x) = -(2x+1)
