indeterminate forms
okay
so since \(a\) can be any number, so can these limits
this is a big one :/ I am honestly stumped!
oh you have to prove that these limits are all \(a\) ?
well it just says to show that they can have any positive real value :|
but i don't understand the problem!
\[\huge x^{\frac{\ln(a)}{1+\ln(x)}}\] \[=\huge e^{\frac{\ln(a)}{1+\ln(x)}\ln(x)}\] is a start for all of them
oh ok yes! i actually had that written! :D
but thats as far as i got
use l'hopital to find the limit in the exponent it is \(\ln(a)\) and so the limit is \(e^{\ln(a)}=a\)
the thing you need to show here is that \[\lim_{x\to 0}\frac{\ln(a)\ln(x)}{1+\ln(x)}=\ln(a)\]
don't forget of course that \(\ln(a)\)is just a constant, so this is the same as showing \[\lim_{x\to 0}\frac{\ln(x)}{1+\ln(x)}=1\]
…hmm okay I'm trying to process this :|
you can use l'hopital right?
yes! so do i perform that on the limit of ln (x) / (1+ ln(x)) ?
yes, and you can to it in your head since it is more or less obvious that the derivative of both is \(\frac{1}{x}\) making the ration \(1\)
*ratio
yes!
so basically is all that the question is asking me to prove?
seems to simple! lol :s
so with the \(\ln(a)\) you get the limit of \(\ln(a)\) making the entire limit \(e^{\ln(a)}=a\)
yeah, kinda
hard part is figuring out what you need to do the mechanics is not much
hm ok. so for part B i just follow the same steps?
