### Limits and Function Values

#### Given Information:

Suppose \( f(x) \) and \( g(x) \) have the following values:

- \( f(-7) = -6 \) and \( f'(-7) = 1 \),
- \( g(-7) = 1 \) and \( g'(-7) = -5 \).

Assume all functions are continuous. Find the following limits:

#### Limit Problems:

1. \[
   \lim_{x \to -7} \frac{[f(x)]^2 - 36}{\ln g(x)} = \_\_\_\_\_\_
   \]

2. \[
   \lim_{x \to -7} \frac{(f(x) + 6)^2}{(g(x) - 1)^2} = \_\_\_\_\_\_
   \]

#### Explanation of Each Limit Problem:

1. **First Limit:**

   The limit to be solved is:
   \[
   \lim_{x \to -7} \frac{[f(x)]^2 - 36}{\ln g(x)}
   \]

   - \( f(x) \) is given as \( -6 \) when \( x \) is \( -7 \).
   - \( [f(x)]^2 - 36 \) simplifies as follows at \( x = -7 \):
     \[
     [-6]^2 - 36 = 36 - 36 = 0
     \]
   - \( g(x) \) is given as \( 1 \) when \( x \) is \( -7 \).
   - \( \ln g(x) \) simplifies since \( \ln 1 = 0 \).

   Using the provided derivative values and L'Hopital's Rule might be necessary to resolve the \( \frac{0}{0} \) indeterminate form.


2. **Second Limit:**

   The limit to be solved is:
   \[
   \lim_{x \to -7} \frac{(f(x) + 6)^2}{(g(x) - 1)^2}
   \]

   - \( f(x) \) is given as \( -6 \) when \( x \) is \( -7 \).
   - \( (f(x) + 6) \) simplifies as follows at \( x = -7
