Limit x approaches infinity e^(x - x^2)

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-08-27] [Hit: ]
if x is infinity, then x^2 is also infinity and e^infinity is also infinity.......
Can I get detailed steps on how to complete this? Thanks.

when x is greater than 1 we know that x^2>x for all x.

here x approaches infinity (positive), so x^2 is WAY bigger than x and we can neglect x.

what is left is e^(-x^2) which is 1/e^(x^2)

if x is infinity, then x^2 is also infinity and e^infinity is also infinity.

the problem becomes just

lim 1/infinity which is zero
