We have the following limit h → 0 lim f ( h − h 2 + 1 ) − f ( 1 ) f ( 2 h + 2 + h 2 ) − f ( 2 )
and directly substituting h = 0 we get f ( 0 − 0 2 + 1 ) − f ( 1 ) f ( 2 ∗ 0 + 2 + 0 2 ) − f ( 2 ) which evaluates to f ( 1 ) − f ( 1 ) f ( 2 ) − f ( 2 ) ⇒ 0 0
That is not something we want.
The first thing that comes to my mind now is L'Hôpital's rule We differentiate numerator and denominator with respect to h h → 0 lim d h d f ( h − h 2 + 1 ) − f ( 1 ) d h d f ( 2 h + 2 + h 2 ) − f ( 2 )
Using the chain rule, d x d f ( g ( x ) ) = d g ( x ) d f ( g ( x ) ) ∗ d x d g ( x )
h → 0 lim f ′ ( h − h 2 + 1 ) ∗ ( 1 − 2 h ) − 0 f ′ ( 2 h + 2 + h 2 ) ∗ ( 2 + 2 h ) − 0 Substituting h=0 f ′ ( 0 − 0 2 + 1 ) ∗ ( 1 − 2 ∗ 0 ) f ′ ( 2 ∗ 0 + 2 + 0 2 ) ∗ ( 2 + 2 ∗ 0 ) = f ′ ( 1 ) ∗ 1 f ′ ( 2 ) ∗ 2 Putting values for f'(2) and f'(1)
4 6 ∗ 2 = 3

Divide and multiply the limit by (2h+h^2) and (h-h^2). By putting(2h+h^2) tends to 0 in numerator and (h-h^2) in denominator, we get (f'(2)/f'(1))(2h+h^2)/(h-h^2)=6x2/4=3
