On all R, f(t)=(8)t+(-17). Find f′(-2) in this affine model.
G001 — On all R, f(t)=(8)t+(-17). Find f′(-2) in this affine model.Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
declared real formula on all R;derivative means the two-sided h->0 quotient limit
After
finite-step evaluation and derivative existence are separate
Conditions: none
A derivative is the two-sided limit of[f(x+h)−f(x)]/h as h→0 with h≠0.One finite evaluation is not evidence that an arbitrary function is differentiable.
Rule: derivative_limit_definition_scope · Uses: G001
Before
affine m*x := mul(8, -2)
After
affine m*x = -16
Conditions: none
Evaluate exactly with this step's source operands and operation order.Check a denominator is nonzero before division.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001
Before
affine f(x) := sum(-16, -17)
After
affine f(x) = -33
Conditions: none
Evaluate exactly with this step's source operands and operation order.Check a denominator is nonzero before division.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002
Before
f(t)=(8)*t+(-17);x=-2;f(x)=-33;h!=0
After
f(x+h)-f(x)=(8)*h;quotient=8
Conditions: none
Expand m(x+h)+b−(mx+b);the intercept and mx cancel,leaving mh.Cancel h only for h≠0,including the valid m=0 case.
Rule: affine_increment_cancellation · Uses: G001, S003
Before
for every h!=0 the quotient is 8
After
two-sided derivative at -2=8
Conditions: none
The quotient is identically m throughout a punctured neighborhood,so its two-sided limit is m.The point value or intercept is not the derivative.
Rule: constant_quotient_limit · Uses: G001, S004
S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine f(x) with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute affine m*x with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.8
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
