Answer 3

Reply miss @Zale101

Answer 4

o.O Are they even equal?

Answer 5

Standing at point 0 in a real number line you see in the right most a number which it as infinity.

Now imagine the number at infinity is marked as B and point zero is called A.
Then, from A you see point B as infinity.

Answer 6

for both negative and positive, do i always use 0?

Answer 7

@Zale101 : Not always! Limits approaching to infinity can be real numbers too.

Answer 8

Now imagine yourself at B which is infinity.... see point A (which is now on your left). Where is point A situated with respect current point B? of coarse it is at infinity which is THE POINT ZERO. Hence point A is it self infinity


or, ZERO = INFINITY

Answer 9

err

Answer 10

o.O zero is nothing while infinity is everything. They can't be equal.

Answer 21

@goformit100 i understand what's infinity mean, but they way it's always defined as 0..i don't get it
and @aajugdar , if a number divides by infinity, which is a number/0 does that mean it doesn't exist? Will number/0 and a number/infinity e the same meaning?

Answer 22

according to ur theory
infinity/0 should be 1
because infinity = 0
hehehe ^^
any number/ infinity will always be 0

Answer 23

but we dont consider any number/ 0 = infinity
because 0 is nothing,it isnt much complex to understand

Answer 24

0 is neither positive nor negative,0 is nothing

Answer 25

i've always been taught that 0 is a number, and nothing but infinity is not a number. but nothing ..

Answer 26

so they're not the same

Answer 27

now on real number line
you can clearly see the difference
