The limit as x approaches 0 of (square root(4+x^4)-2)/x^4) represents the slope of the tangent line at the point (0,2) on the curve y = square root(4+x^4).
To calculate the limit as x approaches 0 of (square root(4+x^4)-2)/x^4), we can use the quotient rule for limits. This involves finding the limit of the numerator and the limit of the denominator separately, and then dividing the two limits.
The value of the limit as x approaches 0 of (square root(4+x^4)-2)/x^4) is equal to 1/4.
No, the limit as x approaches 0 of (square root(4+x^4)-2)/x^4) cannot be evaluated using direct substitution because it would result in an indeterminate form of 0/0, which is undefined.
The graph of y = (square root(4+x^4)-2)/x^4) approaches a vertical tangent line at the point (0,2). This means that as x gets closer and closer to 0, the graph gets steeper and steeper near the point (0,2).
