Because of Their Connection with Secant Lines, Tangents, and Instantaneous $\lim _ { h \rightarrow 0 } \frac { f ( x + h ) - f ( x ) } { h }$

question 101

Multiple Choice

Because of their connection with secant lines, tangents, and instantaneous rates, limits of the form $\lim _ { h \rightarrow 0 } \frac { f ( x + h ) - f ( x ) } { h }$ occur frequently in calculus. Evaluate this limit for the given value of $x$ and function $f$ .
- $$f ( x ) = 2 \sqrt { x } + 10 , x = 25$$

• A) 25
• B) 5
• C) \(\frac { 1 } { 5 }\)
• D) Does not exist
