Partial Derivatives & the Gradient · Hard problem

Let f(x,y)=∣x∣+3y2f(x,y) = \lvert x\rvert + 3y^{2}. Using the definition of the partial derivative as a limit, find the RIGHT-hand partial derivative lim⁡h→0+f(h,0)−f(0,0)h\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0^{+}}\dfrac{f(h,0)-f(0,0)}{h}. (The ordinary two-sided fx(0,0)f_x(0,0) does not exist, but this one-sided limit does.)
