Find the limit of the function by using direct substitution. lim(x -> 0) (x^2-5)

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

By direct substitution, it means plug in 0 for x into the function. The function is defined at x = 0, so the value of the function will be the limit at x - 0.

...will be the limit at x = 0*

but if you plug 0 in then you get -5 @iPwnBunnies

It's the value of the function at x = 0. And also the limit.
