Is this correct and sufficient to show limit does not exist? Find limit or show that it does not exist:
$$\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{ 2x^{2}y^{3/2} }{y^{2}+x^{8}}$$
using the path  $x=m y^{1/4}$: 
$$\lim_{(my^{1/4},y) \to (0,0)} \frac{ 2m^{2}y^{1/2}y^{3/2}}{y^{2}+m^{8}y^{2}}$$ $$\lim_{(my^{1/4},y) \to (0,0)} \frac{ 2m^{2}y^{2}}{y^{2}(1+m^{8})}$$ $$\lim_{(my^{1/4},y) \to (0,0)} \frac{ 2m^{2}}{1+m^{8}}$$
Does not exist, because limit is path dependent.
I am asking because I have a test in a couple days.  I want to make sure I'm not committing some mortal math sin. Also, the Latex tutorial is great, I think I just wasted 20 minutes making that mess.


Looks good to me! Good job. Intuitively you can guess that the limit won't exist because the overall power in the denominator dominates the power of the numerator. To realize this, you can look at straight-line paths to the origin by setting $y=ax$
  and taking a limit that way. The numerator will have degree $\dfrac72$ but the denominator will have degree $8$.
