Since there is a 40% discount, this means that they subtracted 40% of the original price from the original price, meaning that $36 is 60% of the original price. We can use ratios to figure out the original price (so 100% of the price).

100% x
60% 36

x = 36*100 / 60 = 3600 / 60 = 360 / 6 = 60

We can check this quickly: 60 * 0.4 (or 40%) is 24. If we subtract 60-24 we get 36, so we did the problem correctly

8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Using differentiation from first principles

f'(x) = lim_{h0}  \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

      = lim_{h0}\frac{4(x+h)^2-2-(4x^2-2)}{h}

      = lim_{h0}  \frac{4x^2+8hx+4h^2-4x^2+2}{h}

      = lim_{h0}\frac{8hx+4h^2}{h}

      = lim_{h0}\frac{4h(2x+h)}{h} ← cancel the h on numerator/denominator

      = 4(2x)

      = 8x
