Find the instantaneous rate of change for the function at the given value. f (x )equals x squared plus 3 x at xequalsnegative 3 The instantaneous rate of change at xequalsnegative 3 is nothing.

Respuesta :

Answer:

the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x=(-3) is f'(x=(-3))= (-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

for f(x)=x²+3*x

the rate of change of f(x) is

f'(x)=df(x)/dx = 2x + 3

since the derivative of x² is 2x and the derivative of 3*x is 3.

Then at x=(-3)

f'(x=(-3))= 2*(-3) +3 = (-3)

then the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at x=(-3) is f'(x=(-3))= (-3)
