You can put this solution on YOUR website!
f(x)=(2x^2)+4x
\n" ); document.write( "+++
\n" ); document.write( "When you want to find f(x)-f(a))/(x-a) (lim as x approaches a), you are saying that you want to differentiate f(x) with respect to x.
\n" ); document.write( "+++
\n" ); document.write( "Differentiating skill: if f(x)=axⁿ then f'(x)=anx^n-1 where f'(x) is the derivative of f(x).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "f(x)=2x²+4x
\n" ); document.write( "f'(x)=2(2)x^2-1+4(1)x^1-0
\n" ); document.write( "f'(x)=4x-4
\n" ); document.write( "+++
\n" ); document.write( "That's it.
