    Tired College student needs help with math
    I don't understand what I'm doing wrong in this problem it says find the indicated value for the given function. It is f(x)=3x^2-5x+8. there is a blank for the answer equals f(a+h)-f(a)/h. can anyone help ?

    What are you supposed to do?

    Use the defition of a derivative?

    If so,



    Evalauting the limit will result in the derivative of f(x).

    I am guessing here because your description is somehwat vague.

    If this is not what you mean, please elaborate.
