Question
Each limit represents the derivative of some function $f$ at some number $a$ . State such an $f$ and $a$ in each case. $$\lim _{x \rightarrow 2} \frac{x^{6}-64}{x-2}$$
Step 1
The limit given is of the form \(\lim_{x \to a} \frac{f(x) - f(a)}{x - a}\), which is the definition of the derivative \(f'(a)\). Show more…
