The derivative of f at c is defined as which limit?

Alim (h to 0) [f(c+h) - f(c)] x h
Blim (h to infinity) [f(c+h) - f(c)]/h
Clim (h to 0) [f(c+h) - f(c)]/h
Dlim (h to 0) [f(c+h) + f(c)]/h
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. lim (h to 0) [f(c+h) - f(c)]/h
The derivative is the limit of the difference quotient as h approaches 0.
