If f is a function such that lim x->a f(x)-f(a)/(x-a) =7 , then which of the following statements must be true? A. f(a) = 7 B . f(x) is continuous at x = 7 C. the linear approximation for f(x) at x = a is 7 D. f '(a) = 7

OpenStudy (sooobored):

notice how \[\frac{f(x) -f(a)}{x-a} \] looks similar to the slope formula

OpenStudy (sbentleyaz):

so f'(a) = 7?

yes
