Correct option is BFirst, substitute x=16 into the expression: f(16)−416−4=16−44−4=00\text{First, substitute } x = 16 \text{ into the expression: } \frac{\sqrt{f(16)} - 4}{\sqrt{16} - 4} = \frac{\sqrt{16} - 4}{4 - 4} = \frac{0}{0}First, substitute x=16 into the expression: 16−4f(16)−4=4−416−4=00This is an indeterminate form of type 0/0, so we can apply L'Hopital's Rule.
