Midtermassignmentno 2

1. The document provides examples of using the limit definition of the derivative to find the derivative of various functions. 2. It takes the functions f(x)=√3x, s(t)=√t-2, y=√4x+3, y=2x/(x+1), y=3/√2x+1, and y=5x^2/(4x-1) and uses limits and algebra to calculate the derivative of each function. 3. The solutions show the algebraic steps for simplifying the difference quotient expressions and taking the limit as the change in x or t approaches 0 to find the derivative.
