Problem 4

Use the following limit definition to determine the slope of the line tangent to the graph of ff at PP, where f(x)=43x2f\(\left\)(x\(\right\))=\(\frac{4}{3x-2}\) and P(0,2)P\(\left\)(0,-2\(\right\)):
mtan=limh0f(a+h)f(a)hm_\(\text{tan}\)=\(\displaystyle\) \(\lim\)_{h \(\to\) 0}{\(\frac{f(a+h)-f(a)}{h}\)}
