For any positive rational number k, and any real number c, which of the following is incorrect? a.limxaprochinf c = c b limitxaproch-inf. c = c c.limitxaprochinf c/x^k = 0 d.limitxaproch-inf c/x^k = 0 e. All are correct

myininaya (myininaya):

see i already answered this lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D!

myininaya (myininaya):

no D is true its e

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sory i have corrected choice d can u see it plzzzz?

myininaya (myininaya):

yes i see it e is the answer they are all true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plz can u explain it?

myininaya (myininaya):

c in constant it has one value no matter what x is its a horizontal line so didn't doesn't matter what x approaches f(x) will always appoach c since f(x)=c. now what 1/x approach if x approaches infinity?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, I still think d is false. Think about it, as the denominator goes to -infinity, wouldn't it go to 0. Now 1/0 = infinity

myininaya (myininaya):

oh k is rational not an integer so that means if we have 1/(x^(1/2)), then x-> -inf, f wouldn't exist. if k is integer d is true

myininaya (myininaya):

no phinx it will go to 0 if the funtion exist for negative numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh, I misread

myininaya (myininaya):

but still d is not true since k is rational

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u plz solve it by steps?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 / infinity = 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It has to be d) Because, the limit does not exist, x^k does not exist for negative numbers, if k is any rational number
