Final answer to the problem
Step-by-step Solution
Specify the solving method
Find the derivative of $\left(x-8\right)^2$ 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 $\left(x-8\right)^2$. Substituting $f(x+h)$ and $f(x)$ on the limit, we get
