Here, we're given a limit and we want to compute it algebraically.
00:04
Say we have the limit as x approaches 3 of x minus 3 over x squared minus x minus 6.
00:12
Now the first step, and i would always recommend, don't miss this step, is just plug it in.
00:17
And if i do, i'm going to get 0 divided by 0.
00:20
If you get a number divided by 0, well, or you get just a number, those tell you different things.
00:28
If you get a number, that means, hey, that's your answer.
00:32
If you get zero divided by zero like we did here, that means do some more work.
00:35
And if you get a divided by zero, that means the answer is in some way infinite.
00:39
But i don't know if it's infinite, negative infinity, or undefined.
00:44
But in this case, it's saying do more work...
