The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

We are given that \( h(x) = 4x^3 - 5x + 7 \) is the derivative of \( f(x) \), and we need to find the value of:

\( \lim\limits_{t \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(1+t) - f(1)}{t} \). 

From the definition of the derivative, we know that:

\( \lim\limits_{t \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(1+t) - f(1)}{t} = f'(1) \).

We are given that \( h(x) = f'(x) \), so:

\( f'(1) = h(1) \).

Now, substitute \( x = 1 \) into the expression for \( h(x) \):

\( h(1) = 4(1)^3 - 5(1) + 7 \).

\( h(1) = 4 - 5 + 7 = 6 \).

The correct answer is 6.
