8.3.2 The function is undefined at x = 1.
OR answer
Division by zero is undefined. (1)
OR
The denominator cannot be zero.
OR
g (1 + h ) − g (1)
In the definition of the derivative , g ′(1) = lim , but g (1)

h ′( x) = 12 x 2 + 5
Suppose h′( x ) < 0 and try to solve for x : h ′( x) = 12 x 2 + 5
12 x 2 + 5 < 0
x2 < −
5 clearly argues that
12 h′( x ) < 0 is

but x is always positive impossible
∴ no solution for x
∴ h′( x) ≥ 0 for all x ∈ R conclusion
i.e. there are no tangents with negative slopes
