Solution and Explanation
Letf(x) = x. Accordingly,
f'(1) = \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\)\(\frac{f(1+h)-f(1)}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) \(\frac{(1+h)-(1)}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) \(\frac{h}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) (1)
=1
Thus, the derivative of x at x = 1 is 1.
f'(1) = \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\)\(\frac{f(1+h)-f(1)}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) \(\frac{(1+h)-(1)}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) \(\frac{h}{h}\)
= \(\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\) (1)
=1
Thus, the derivative of x at x = 1 is 1.
