As limit x approaches infinity

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-10-23] [Hit: ]
depending on the function, which you neglected to provide.Seeing as you still havent provided any function, Ill show you with examples.In this case, the limit is infinity.......
does the limit equal 0 or is there no limit?

The limit can be anything, depending on the function, which you neglected to provide.

Edit:
Seeing as you still haven't provided any function, I'll show you with examples.

ex1: f(x) = x

lim as x→∞ f(x) = ∞
In this case, the limit is infinity. Some high school teachers will teach that the limit does not exist, however.

ex2: f(x) = 1/x
lim as x→∞ f(x) = 1/∞ = 0
Limit is 0

ex3: f(x) = 2x²
limit is ∞ as x→∞

ex4: f(x) = (x² + x + 1) / (x² + 2x + 1)
limit is 1 as x→∞ because the degrees of the numerator and denominator are the same. You only consider the ratio of the highest powers. In other words, you can divide each term by x² to get
f(x) = (1 + 1/x + 1/x²) / (1 + 2/x + 1/x²)
limit by direct sub is (1 + 0 + 0)/(1+0+0) = 1

ex5: f(x) = x³ / (x²+1)
lim is infinity as x→∞ because the numerator is of a higher degree.

ex6: f(x) = x / (x²+1)
limit is 0 as x→∞ because the numerator's degree is lower.

ex7: f(x) = 3x / (4x + 1)
limit is 3/4 as x→∞ because the degrees of the num and denom are equal, so just look at the ratio of the coefficients.

As I said before, it depends on the function.

-
The limit applies to the value of a function of x, as x approaches infinity. You haven't said what the function is, so there is no way to know the limit.

If your function is f(x) = x, which you are implying... yes.
