Question
Each limit represents the derivative of some function$f$ at some number $a .$ State such an $f$ and $a$ in each case.$$\lim _{x \rightarrow 5} \frac{2^{x}-32}{x-5}$$
Step 1
We can see that this limit is in the form of the definition of a derivative, which is $\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$. Show more…
