Stewart Calc Ch.1 Q3 — find the domain.
(a) (2x 1)/(x² x−2): factor → exclude x=−2, x=1
(b) ∛x/(x² 1): no restrictions, all reals
(c) √(4−x) √(x²−1): intersect both radicands ≥0 → (−∞,−1]∪[1,4]

Stewart Calc Ch.1 Q2 — difference quotient of x³ at x=2.
Expand (2 h)³. Subtract f(2)=8. Cancel. Divide by h.
Answer: h² 6h 12. As h→0 → f′(2)=12. Same as power rule.
