Find lim 2 2
.
(x,y)→( − 2,3) x +y +5
The limit of a function as (x,y)→ x0 ,y0 can be calculated by evaluating the function at x0 ,y0 . The only requirement is that
the function be defined at x0 ,y0 .
2 2
− 3x + 2y − 4
The rational function 2 2
is defined at ( − 2,3) because the denominator is anon-zero value at the point ( − 2,3).
x +y +5
Thus, the limit of the function as (x,y)→( − 2,3) can be calculated by evaluating the function at ( − 2,3).

(x,y)→( − 2,3) x +y +5 ( − 2) + (3) + 5
Calculating and simplifying the fractions in the previousstep, the following answer for the limit is obtained.
