I will write problem in comment. I need some hints. :)

OpenStudy (gorica):

I can't write equation for some reason, I hope you will understand this lim x to 0+ (e^(5x)+x^2)^(1/x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Have you tried graphing it?

OpenStudy (gorica):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you against that method of solving it?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

\[\Large \lim_{x\to 0^+} (e^{5x}+x^2)^{\frac{1}{x}}\] Is this your question?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@gorica ?

OpenStudy (gorica):

Yes

OpenStudy (gorica):

@klik I am not allowed to solve it by graphing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok let's talk about this. I've got a little time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm a little rusty at doing limits, but I think I can help.

OpenStudy (gorica):

Please, write whatever you think would help and I will try/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've got the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I want to try to prompt the answer from you though, instead of just giving it to you. I think it will help you learn. Side note, is there any way to make this send a message by pressing enter?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Take the ln and use L'Hospital rule you find that the limit is e^5

OpenStudy (gorica):

I tried to write it in a form lim (1+e^{5x}+x^2-1)^{1/x}=lim (1+a)^[{1/a}*a*{1/x}], where a=e^{5x}+x^2-1. Sorry for writing equations like that, but I can't write equations today, I don't know what's the problem with it :(

OpenStudy (gorica):

how to use ln?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Elisa, I think you should take a look at the equation Gorica wrote again. I don't believe that's the correct answer, or the correct method in this case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hold on a minute. I think I made a mistake reading your equation. Eliassaab is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ y= \left(x^2+e^{5 x}\right)^{\frac{1}{x}}\\ \ln y =\frac {\ln\left(x^2+e^{5 x}\right)} {x}\\ \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use L'hospital's Rule \[\Large \frac {\frac{2 x + 5 e^{5x}}{x^2 + e^{5 x}} } {1}=\frac{2 x + 5 e^{5x}}{x^2 + e^{5 x}} \] When x goes to zero, the ratio goes to 5 Hence the orginal function goes to e^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ \ln y \to 5\\ y=e^{\ln y} \to e^5 \]
