Question

lim (1-x)^(1/8x) as x-->0

Answer 1

draw it out for us. Your 1/8x looks dodgy. I don't know if the x is in the denominator or numerator.

Answer 2

if you don't know how touse brackets efficiently so that people can see exactly what your equation/expression looks like, always go to Plan B and draw it out for us.

Answer 3

to use*

Answer 10
