We know by first principle,
\(f'\left( x \right) =\lim _{ h\rightarrow 0 }{ \frac { f\left( x+h \right) -f\left( x \right) }{ h } } \)

\(f^{\prime}(100)=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{f(100+h)-f(100)}{h} \)
\(=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{99(100+h)-99(100)}{h} \)
\(=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{99 \times 100+99 h-99 \times 100}{h} \)
\(=\lim _{h \rightarrow 0} \frac{99 h}{h} \)

\(LHL=\lim _{ { X\rightarrow 4 }^{ 1 } }{ \frac { -(x-4) }{ x-4 } } =1 \quad \left[ \because |x-4|=-(x-4),x<4 \right] \)
\(RHL=\lim _{ { X\rightarrow 4 }^{ + } }{ \frac { (x-4) }{ x-4 } } =1\quad \left[ \because |x-4|=(x-4),x<4 \right] \)

Put x=e+h
then \(x\rightarrow e \Rightarrow h\rightarrow 0\)
ஃ \(\overset{Lt}{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{log x-1}{x-e}=\overset{Lt}{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{log(e+h)-log e}{e+h-e}\) [∵ log e=1]
=\(\overset{Lt}{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{log[\frac{e+h}{e}]}{h} \Rightarrow \overset{Lt}{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{log[1+\frac{h}{e}]}{\frac{h}{e}\times e}\)
∴ \(\frac{h}{e}\rightarrow 0 \Rightarrow \frac{1}{e}.\frac{1}{1} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{e} \)

\(\lim _{x \rightarrow 1^{+}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 1}(b-a x)=b-a \)
\(f(1)=4\)
\(\text { It is given that } \lim _{x \rightarrow 1} f(x)=f(1) \text { . }\)
\(\therefore \lim _{x \rightarrow 1^{-}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 1^{+}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 1} f(x)=f(1) \)
\(\Rightarrow a+b=4 \text { and } b-a=4\)
\(\text { On solving these two equations, we obtain } a=0 \text { and } b=4 \text { . }\)
