this is a weird question, normally we only have one variable, but whatever...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh so is 72/40-3y the answer
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
there are now limitation on y
OpenStudy (anonymous):
In limits, do you just try to make the denominator zero
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
in general that is what you are trying to avoid.

because you get 0/0 if you plug it in
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
so you take the derivative of top and bottom and then run the limit again. you will learn about this later
