SOLUTION: Find f(a), f(a + h),and the difference quotient f(a + h) − f(a)/h, where h ≠ 0. f(x) = 5x + 2 f(a)= f(a + h) = f(a + h) − f(a)/=h I'm totally lost

Question 986696: Find f(a), f(a + h),and the difference quotient f(a + h) − f(a)/h, where h ≠ 0.
f(x) = 5x + 2
f(a)=
f(a + h) =
f(a + h) − f(a)/=h
I'm totally lost with the f(a+h) - f(a) over h. Please help
