FINDING THE DERIVATIVE USING THE LIMIT DEFINITION WORKSHEET

Problem 1 :

Use the limit definition of a derivative to find f'(x) if 

f(x) = 2x² - 3x + 1

Solution

Problem 2 :

Use the derivative using the limit definition to the derivative to find f'(2) if

f(x) = √(2 - x)

Solution

Problem 3 :

Use the limit definition of a derivative to find f'(x) if

f(x) = √(2x - 1)

Solution

Problem 4 :

Use the limit definition of a derivative to find f'(3) if

f(x) = 2/(5 - x)

Solution

Problem 5 :

Use the limit definition of a derivative to find f'(x) if

f(x) = x² - 4x

Solution

Problem 6 :

Use the limit definition of a derivative to find f'(x) if

f(x) = x³ + 5x² - 4
