lim_(x→∞) (√(x^6 +5x^3 ))−x

Answered by EDWIN88 last updated on 04/Aug/21

 lim_(x→∞)  (√(x^6 (1+5x^(−3) )))−x  = lim_(x→∞) x^3 (√(1+5x^(−3) ))−x  let (1/x)=u then u→0  lim_(u→0)  ((1/u^3 )(√(1+5u^3 ))−(1/u))=  lim_(u→0) ((((√(1+5u^3 ))−u^2 )/u^3 ))= ∞

yes

in the second line, that 0 is actually an infinity

f(x)=(√(x^6 +5x^3 ))−x ⇒f(x)=x^3 (√(1+(5/x^3 )))−x  ⇒f(x)∼∣x∣^3 (1+(5/(2x^3 )))−x ⇒  for x∼+∞  f(x)∼x^3 (1+(5/(2x^3 )))−x=x^3  −x+(5/2) ⇒lim_(x→+∞) f(x)=lim_(x→+∞) x^3  =+∞

for x∼−∞ ⇒f(x)∼−x^3 (1+(5/(2x^3 )))−x =−x^3 −x−(5/2) ⇒  lim_(x→−∞) f(x)=lim_(x→−∞) −x^3  =+∞
