Understanding difference quotients requires a solid grasp of algebra, which is essential for calculus. If foundational concepts are unclear, it indicates a lack of prerequisite knowledge or effort. Routine algebra steps are crucial for mastering the topic. Additionally, users are encouraged to upload full-sized images for clarity in discussions.

If you do not understand a single step, even the first one, then either you have not worked hard enough at it or you do not have the prerequisite math to understand it. Every step is very routine algebra. Algebra is a prerequisite to understanding calculus.
