Answer

a) $8x+4h$ b) $-4y-2h$ c) $8x$ d) $-4y$

Work Step by Step

$a)\frac{f(x+h,y)-f(x,y)}{h}=\frac{4(x+h)^{2}-2y^{2}-(4x^{2}-2y^{2})}{h}=8x+4h$ $b)\frac{f(x,y+h)-f(x,y)}{h}=\frac{4x^{2}-2(y+h)^{2}-(4x^{2}-2y^{2})}{h}=-4y-2h$ $c)\lim\limits_{h \to 0}\frac{f(x+h,y)-f(x,y)}{h}=\lim\limits_{h \to 0}(8x+4h)=8x+4\cdot 0=8x$ $d)\lim\limits_{h \to 0}\frac{f(x,y+h)-f(x,y)}{h}=\lim\limits_{h \to 0}(-4y-2h)=-4y-2\cdot 0=-4y$
