Suppose that $f$ is a function given as $f(x) = \frac{1}{2x + 3}$. Simplify the expression $f(x + h)$. $f(x + h) = $ Simplify the difference quotient, $\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}$. $\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h} = $ The derivative of the function at $x$ is the limit of the difference quotient as $h$ approaches zero. $f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h} = $

Suppose that f is a function given as f(x) = - 3x^2 - 4x + 2. Simplify the expression f(x + h). f(x + h) = Simplify the difference quotient, (f(x + h) - f(x)) / h. (f(x + h) - f(x)) / h = The derivative of the function at x is the limit of the difference quotient as h approaches zero. f'(x) = lim h->0 (f(x + h) - f(x)) / h =
