\[x-\sqrt[4]{x} \div x-1\]
need to simplify
\[\frac{x-x^{1/4}}{x-1}\]
yes now to simplify
add 0 :)
can't be simplify further: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=(x-x^(1%2F4))%2F(x-1)&t=crmtb01
to find lim >1
\[1-\cfrac{1}{4}x^{-3/4}\] id say its 3/4
im right yay!! http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=limit%28x+to+1%29+%28x-x^%281%2F4%29%29%2F%28x-1%29
you are correct thx
L'Hopitals rule for indeterminate forms
do you want a non L'hospital way?
kk
\[Let u=x^4\] as x->1, u->1 \[u=x^\frac{1}{4} =>u^4=x\] so we have \[\lim_{u \rightarrow 1}\frac{u^4-u}{u^4-1}=\lim_{x \rightarrow 1}\frac{u(u^3-1)}{(u^2-1)(u^2+1)}\] \[=\lim_{u \rightarrow 1}\frac{u(u-1)(u^2+u+1)}{(u-1)(u+1)(u^2+1)}=\lim_{u \rightarrow 1}\frac{u(u^2+u+1)}{(u+1)(u^2+1)}\]
\[=\frac{1(1^2+1+1)}{(1+1)(1^2+1)}=\frac{1(3)}{2(2)}=\frac{3}{4}\]
thx
