Question

Informative......

Answer 1

L Hopital

Answer 2

It should state, that your limit must be indeterminate for L'hospital rule to be effective.

Answer 3

oh wow... I thought if we have the fraction as 0/0 then we can use L'hopital's rule?
It's been 5 years since I've done it, but I still know how it works.

Answer 4

yeah I would plug in the a (which is the limit) and then if I have 0/0 then I take derivatives. plug that limit again and if I still have 0/0 take derivatives...if not. stop taking derivatives.

Answer 5

Yup, that's one of the indeterminate forms!
