 Answer by Boreal(15235)
      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website! f(x)=4x+11 f(x+h)=4(x+h)+11=4x+4h+11
 f(x+h)-f(x)=4h
 eventually, you will divide by h and as h approaches 0, this will be 4.
 f(x)=1/x (edited for exponent)
 f(x+h)=1/(x+h)
 f(x+h)-f(x)=[1/(x+h)]-(1/x)=  (x-x-h)/[(x(x+h)]
 -h/(x^2+xh)
 
 eventually, you will divide by h and as h approaches 0, it will become -x^-2.
