find all values of c where the limit exists\lim _{x\to \infty }\left(\frac{x^3-1}{x^c+1}\right)

OpenStudy (will.h):

I can't read the equation well but I'm pretty sure that Desmos.com solves some kind of equations and GeoGebra.com solves pretty much all kinds

OpenStudy (czesc):

@Will.H the limit as x--> infinity of (x^3-1) / (x^c+1)

OpenStudy (brainzonly):

The relevant fact is that −|f(x)|≤f(x)≤|f(x)| −|f(x)|≤f(x)≤|f(x)| for any function f f. Once you see how to apply that here, the problem becomes easy to solve.

@myininaya pm me once you done here

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\] Let f(x) and g(x) be polynomials. If f(x) and g(x) share the same degree, then the limit exists. If f(x) has a higher degree than g(x), then the limit does not exist. If f(x) has a lower degree than g(x), then the limit exists. This though does not take into account for negative values of c; you know when g(x) is not a polynomial. So you are left to consider those cases now. Try assuming c=-p where p>0 and see what happens...

find the limit when 1. c=3 2.c>3 3. c<3
