$derivdef\left(40+6x\right)$
Learn how to solve definition of derivative problems step by step online. Find the derivative of -100+6x+140 using the definition. Subtract the values 140 and -100. Find the derivative of 40+6x using the definition. Apply the definition of the derivative: \displaystyle f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}. The function f(x) is the function we want to differentiate, which is 40+6x. Substituting f(x+h) and f(x) on the limit, we get. Multiply the single term 6 by each term of the polynomial \left(x+h\right). Multiply the single term -1 by each term of the polynomial \left(40+6x\right).
