Question
Specify a function $f$ and a value $c$ for which the given limit equals $f^{\prime}(c) .$ (You need not evaluate the limit.)$$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{1 /(5+h)-1 / 5}{h}$$
Step 1
We can see that this is in the form of the definition of the derivative of a function at a point, which is $\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(c+h)-f(c)}{h}$. Show more…

The Derivative
Specify a function $f$ and a value $c$ for which the given limit equals $f^{\prime}(c) .$ (You need not evaluate the limit.) $$ \lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin (h)}{h} $$
Compute the following limit for each function. $$\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(2+h)-f(2)}{h}$$ $$ f(x)=5 x-1 $$
