Answer

The limit of the function as t approaches 6 is \(\boxed{11}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The function is not defined at t=6, but we can simplify the function to find the limit as t approaches 6.

Step 2 :The numerator can be factored, and then we can cancel out the (t-6) term in the numerator and denominator.

Step 3 :After simplifying, we can substitute t=6 to find the limit.

Step 4 :\(t = t\)

Step 5 :\(f = \frac{t^{2} - t - 30}{t - 6}\)

Step 6 :\(f_{simplified} = t + 5\)

Step 7 :\(limit = 11\)

Step 8 :The limit of the function as t approaches 6 is \(\boxed{11}\).
