So what am I saying? I'm just gonna say it another way. We know that some function is continuous, is continuous at some x value, at x equals a, if and only if, I'll write that as if, or if, if and only if the limit as x approaches a of f of x is equal to f of, is equal to f of a. So I didn't do a rigorous proof here, but just, it's conceptually not a big jump to say okay, well this is just a standard quadratic right over here, it's defined for all real numbers, and in fact it's continuous for all real numbers, and so we know that this expression, it could define a continuous function, so that means that the limit as x approaches a for this expression is just the same thing as evaluating this expression at a. And in this case our a is negative one. So all I have to do is evaluate this at negative one. This is going to be six times negative one squared plus five times negative one minus one.
