Capitalism is an economic system based on private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit. Characteristics central to capitalism include private property, capital accumulation, wage labor, voluntary exchange, a price system, and competitive markets.
f(x) = (x+1)^1/2. Hi Carla, The derivative of $f(x)$ is the limit, as $h$ approaches zero of the difference quotient. \[\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{h}.\]. For your function this difference quotient is. \[\frac{(x + h + 1)^{1/2} - (x + 1)^{1/2}}{h}.\]. If you multiply the numerator and denominator by $(x + h + 1)^{1/2} + (x + 1)^{1/2}$ and simplify you will arrive at an expression that can be evaluated as $h$ approaches zero.
When the denominator of a rational function approaches zero, it has a vertical asymptote. Find the value of x that makes the denominator equal to zero. If your function is y = 1/(x+2), you would solve the equation x+2 = 0, which is x = -2.There may be more than one possible solution for more complex functions.se the solution of the limit to write your asymptote equation. If the solution is a fixed value, there is a horizontal asymptote, but if the solution is infinity, there is no horizontal asymptote. If the solution is another function, there is an asymptote, but it is neither horizontal or vertical.
