The first thing to do with these problems is to convert them into y=mx+b form; this will literally show you the answer to slope and y intercept since m=slope and b=y intercept.

To convert, isolate the y and the rest should fall into place. Subtract 2x from 4y and the other side of the equation to get the equation 4y= -2x+9 (put the x first because of mx+b). Then Divide the 4 from y and do the same to the other side to get y= -1/2x+9/4. M= -1/2 so that is the slope. B=9/4 so that is the y intercept

Lim t^4 - 6 / 2t^2 - 3t + 7

Harman [31]

I think you meant to say

$\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2}\frac{t^4-6}{2t^2-3t+7}$

(as opposed to x approaching 2)

Since both the numerator and denominator are continuous at t = 2, the limit of the ratio is equal to a ratio of limits. In other words, the limit operator distributes over the quotient:

$\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2} \frac{t^4 - 6}{2t^2 - 3t + 7} = \frac{\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2}(t^4-6)}{\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2}(2t^2-3t+7)}$

Because these expressions are continuous at t = 2, we can compute the limits by evaluating the limands directly at 2:

$\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2} \frac{t^4 - 6}{2t^2 - 3t + 7} = \frac{\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2}(t^4-6)}{\displaystyle \lim_{t\to2}(2t^2-3t+7)} = \frac{2^4-6}{2\cdot2^2-3\cdot2+7} = \boxed{\frac{10}9}$
