Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = \frac{4}{x}\\\\f(a) = \frac{4}{a}\\\\f(a+h) = \frac{4}{a+h}\\\\\frac{f(a+h) - f(a)}{h} = \frac{\frac{4}{a+h} - \frac{4}{a}}{h}$

                $=\frac{\frac{4(a)}{(a+h)a} - \frac{4(a+h)}{a(a+h)}}{h}\\\\=\frac{\frac{4a - 4a - 4h}{a(a+h)}}{h}\\\\=\frac{\frac{ - 4h}{a(a+h)}}{h}\\\\= \frac{-4h}{a(a+h) \times h}\\\\= -\frac{4}{a(a+h)}$
