Compute limit Help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for part i)\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} 5^{\frac{ -1 }{ x }}\cos(\frac{ \pi }{ 6x })= 5^{-0}\cos0=1\] part ii) \[-1 \le \cos (\frac{ \pi }{ 6x }) \le1\] \[-5^{\frac{ -1 }{ x }} \le 5^{\frac{ -1 }{ x }}\cos(\frac{ \pi }{ 6x }) \le 5^{\frac{ -1 }{ x }}\] lim lwft is not equal to lim right? then how?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

part 2 only asks for the right hand limit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm, but if i plug in 0 , there will be cos infinity? which i cant evaluate

OpenStudy (turingtest):

you can still use the squeeze theorem as you were doing earlier. the left and right hand limits are actually the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isit.. so mean i just ignore the sign of 5?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

what's\[\lim_{x\to 0}a^{-1/x}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a^-ve infty?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

right, which is what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the limit at the right

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[a^{-b}=\frac1{a^b}\]

OpenStudy (turingtest):

\[a^{-\infty}=\frac1{a^{\infty}}=?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0?

OpenStudy (turingtest):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay that make sense now thank you! :D

OpenStudy (turingtest):

welcome!
