I meant approaches inifinity

\(\large \begin{align} \color{black}{ \lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2x^3-6}{x^k+3} \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \normalsize \text{if i put k=3 then } \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ = \lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2x^3-6}{x^3+3} \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ = \lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{2-\frac{6}{x^3}}{1+\frac{3}{x^3}} \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =\frac{2-\frac{6}{\infty^3}}{1+\frac{3}{\infty^3}} \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =\frac{2-0}{1+0} \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ =2 \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \normalsize \text{so for k=3 the limit exists } \hspace{.33em}\\~\\ }\end{align}\)
