How To Find H3 Base On The Graph class=

Sagot :

By the quotient rule for differentiation,

[tex]\displaystyle h'(x) = \dfrac{g(x)f'(x) - f(x)g'(x)}{g(x)^2}[/tex]

According to the plots of [tex]f[/tex] and [tex]g[/tex], we have [tex]f(3)=2[/tex] and [tex]g(3)=3[/tex].

On the interval [2, 4], [tex]f[/tex] is a line through the points (2, 5) and (4, -1), and hence has slope (-1 - 5)/(4 - 2) = -3, so [tex]f'(3)=-3[/tex]. We can similarly find [tex]g'(3)=2[/tex].

Then

[tex]h'(3) = \dfrac{3\cdot(-3)-2\cdot2}{3^2} = \boxed{-\dfrac{13}9}[/tex]
