						 <p>I don't really use my Nspire, but it looks like you're forgetting the order of operations&#8212; the right difference quotient should be <tt>(f(x+h)-f(x))/h</tt>.</p>

						 <p>Hello guys, I'm still learning how to do more advanced techniques with the TI-Nspire. Can you help me figure this one problem that I'm having out?</p> <p>I'm using the right difference quotient. f(x+h)-f(x)/h</p> <p>For (fx) = x^2-4x+7, find f(x+h)-f(x)/h</p> <p>msec =</p> <p>TI Nspire Function<br /> rightdiff(x,h):= f(x+h)-f(x)/h</p> <p>when I plugin rightdiff(x^2-4x+7, h) The answer is not coming out reduced as 2x+h-4.</p>
