Evaluate the limit \(\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 8}\frac{2 x^{2} - 6 x - 80}{9 x^{2} - 69 x - 24}\)

The limit is an indeterminate form of the type \(\displaystyle \frac{0}{0}\). Using L'Hospitial's rule and then the evaluation theorem gives: \begin{equation*} \lim_{x \to 8}\frac{2 x^{2} - 6 x - 80}{9 x^{2} - 69 x - 24} = \lim_{x \to 8}\frac{4 x - 6}{18 x - 69} = \frac{4 (8) - 6}{18 (8) - 69} = \frac{26}{75} \end{equation*}
