$f(x,y)=\frac{xy^3}{x^2 + 4y^2}$,

$(x,y)$ not eaqual to $(0,0)$;

use $\epsilon-\delta$ definition to show that $f(x,y)$ tends to $(0,0)$.

I'm unsure how to deal with fractions for, $\epsilon-\delta$ proof... could applying the proof separately for numerator and denominator; then later combining them help?

    can you at least make the title more descriptive, there are a infinite number of limit proofs one could do.2016-10-23

$\mathbb x^2 + 4y^2\geq 4xy$ applying AM $\geq$ GM then $ f(x.y) \leq \frac{y^2}{4} $ from there you can get the $\epsilon-\delta $ proof

    yes AM = arithmetic mean, and GM = geometric mean from this (a+b)/2 >= sqrt(ab) take a=x^2 (>=0) and b= 4y^2(>=0)2012-10-23
