In conclusion:
A limit is a y value.
One-sided limits always exist
A limit does not exist only when a function is discontinuous.
A limit can always be found graphically, whether it’s solving, factoring or asymptotic. On exams when you are given the use of a graphing calculator, it’s always a good idea to check your work by solving for the limit graphically as long as you have time.
