Question 788676: Find the difference quotient and simplify your answer.
F(x)=5x-x^2, (f(5+Δx)-f(5))/ Δx, Δx does not equal 0 Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! F(x)=5x-x^2
F(x+h) = 5(x+h) - (x+h)^2
F(x+h) = 5x + 5h - x^2 - 2hx -h^2
-------
F(x+h)-F(x) = 5h -2hx -h^2
-------
[F(x+h)-F(x)]/h = 5 -2x - h
