Help!!! Find the derivative of f(x) = 5x + 9 at x = 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok so would the answer be zero since f(2) does not exist

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if your derivative is 5 then you the function y=5 for the derivative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do i do im confused, f2 dont exist i get that now what do i do next

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which means the value of the derivative is 5 for every x within the domain of the function

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is 5, can you also help me with f(x) = -6/x at x = 12.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

basically your derivative looks like this|dw:1365281926046:dw|
