Choose all the necessary steps that you need to include when calculating a derivative algebraically using the limit definition of the derivative. My work shows that I know the definition of derivative. My equal signs are in the right places. My answer is correct and doesn't have the limit sign still attached to it. As long as I write the limit sign in the first step, that is enough. As long as I have the correct answer, it doesn't matter how much work I show. My steps are clear and in order. Steps can appear in any order as long as I indicate, clearly, my final answer. I have used limit notation properly throughout. Equal signs are not necessary.

Use the limit definition to find the derivative function, ℎ′(x), of the given function ℎ(x). Please help it would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Prob. 6 (a) (10 point) Let f(x) = 2x² – 3. Find ƒ'(−2) using only the limit definition of derivatives. (b) (10 p.) If ƒ(x) = √√x + 6, find the derivative f'(c) at an arbitrary point c using only the limit definition of derivatives.
2r +3 6. Let f(x) = (a) Find the derivative of f at r = 3 using the definition of the derivative as a limit. Make sure to explain your computations, including justifying why you are able to evaluate any limits. no differentiation rules like the quotient rule or power rule. (b) Find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of f at x = 3. Briefly explain your answer.
I found the limit of the function using the two methods it asked for and they yielded different functions. Is it okay for them to result in different functions?
