limit n tends to infinity for f (n)= (a^n + b^n)/(a^n - b^n)

OpenStudy (empty):

Is there any extra info about what a or b are?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yes a> b> 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd assume they're real constants

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I tried factorising and I tried series expansions quite stuck since yesterday

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

divide \(a^n\) top and bottom, then let \(t = b/a\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks. Gosh I was being ridiculous. This seems so easy. Thanks

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yw :) are you getting 1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

obviously. Easy peas. I dislike this bit about calc...There's this approach that should strike you immediately. I didn't pick up on the hint from the a and b conditions.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Haha it wouldn't be fun if that guessing part is not there !
