Find and simplify the difference quotient f(x + 1) – f(x) for the following function. f(x) = mx + b where m = 0​

In your situation you said that

Putting those together, you'd have because .

To evaluate the difference quotient, first find each piece on it's own:

So putting those together:

Remember that the difference quotient is basically finding the slope of something.  Since you were given that the slope is 0, the difference quotient should work out to match that.

the answer is 5/14.

hope this .
