Solution:
(a)
| Step 1: |

| We first calculate Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 3^+}f(x).} We have |

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3^+}f(x)} & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{x\rightarrow 3^+} 4\sqrt{x+1}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{4\sqrt{3+1}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{8.} \end{array}} |
| Step 2: |
|---|
| Now, we calculate Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \lim_{x\rightarrow 3^-}f(x).} We have |

| Step 3: |
|---|
| Now, we calculate Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(3).} We have |
|

| Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(x)} is continuous. |
(b)
| Step 1: |
|---|
| We need to use the limit definition of derivative and calculate the limit from both sides. So, we have |

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^-}\frac{f(3+h)-f(3)}{h}} & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^-}\frac{(3+h)+5-8}{h}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^-}\frac{h}{h}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^-}1}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{1.} \end{array}} |
| Step 2: |
|---|
| Now, we have |
|
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{rcl} \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{f(3+h)-f(3)}{h}} & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4\sqrt{3+h+1}-8}{h}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4(\sqrt{4+h}-\sqrt{4})}{h}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4(\sqrt{4+h}-\sqrt{4})(\sqrt{4+h}+\sqrt{4})}{h(\sqrt{4+h}+\sqrt{4})}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4(4+h-4)}{h(\sqrt{4+h}+\sqrt{4})}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4h}{h(\sqrt{4+h}+\sqrt{4})}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\lim_{h\rightarrow 0^+}\frac{4}{(\sqrt{4+h}+\sqrt{4})}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{\frac{4}{2\sqrt{4}}}\\ &&\\ & = & \displaystyle{1.}\\ \end{array}} |
