Question

What is the difference quotient of the function g(x) = 4^x

Answer 1

The answer is A the first option

Explanation:

Just took the unit review and got a 100

Answer 2

First choice

Explanation:

The difference quotient in general is
`(g(x+h)-g(x))/(h)`. To get an expression for
`g(x+h)`, replace x with x + h.

For this question,

`(4^(x+h)-4^x)/(h)=(4^x\cdot4^h-4^x)/(h)`

Factor
`4^x` out of the numerator.

`(4^x(4^h-1))/(h)`
