Evaluate $\lim_{x \to 2} \frac{|x^3 - 8|}{x - 2}$
How do I evaluate this limit? I get an intermediate form of $\frac{0}{0}$ and couldn't seem to do anything algebraically testing the limit from the positive and negative side as I wasn't entirely sure how to treat the absolute value term. Should I just try to plot some points and observe what is happening around $x$ = 2?
