Let f(x) = x² + 5x. (a) Find the derivative f' off by using the definition of the derivative. Show your work by completing the four-step process. (Simplify your answers completely for each step.) f(x + h) = (x + h) +5(x+h) (b) Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Step 4: f'(x) = _lim_ h→0 f(x +h)-f(x) = f(x+h)-f(x) h f(x +h)-f(x) h (Expand your answer completely.) X (Factor your answer completely.) Find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of f at the point (1,4). Give your answer in the slope-intercept form.
