(a) Explanation Given information: The function, f ( x ) = 4 x 2 − 11 x − 3 . Formula used: The derivative of the function f ( x ) at x = c is given by, f ' ( c ) = lim x → c f ( x ) − f ( c ) x − c . Explanation: As the function is f ( x ) = 4 x 2 − 11 x − 3 and x = 2 , Therefore, f ( 2 ) = 4 ( 2 ) 2 − 11 ( 2 ) − 3 . ⇒ f ( 2 ) = 16 − 22 − 3 = − 9 . By using definition of derivative, ⇒ f ' ( 2 ) = lim x → 2 f ( x ) − f ( 2 ) x − 2 (b) To determine An equation of tangent line to the graph of f ( x ) = 4 x 2 − 11 x − 3 at the point ( 2 , − 9 ) . (c) To determine To graph: The function f ( x ) = 4 x 2 − 11 x − 3 and the tangent line.
