Question Number 28770 by Rasheed.Sindhi last updated on 30/Jan/18

lim_(x→+∞)  ((5x^4 −10x^2 +1)/(−3x^3 +10x^2 +50))

$$\underset{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} {{lim}}\:\frac{\mathrm{5}{x}^{\mathrm{4}} −\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}}{−\mathrm{3}{x}^{\mathrm{3}} +\mathrm{10}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{50}} \\ $$

lim_(x→+∞ )    ((((5x^4 )/x^4 ) − ((10x^2 )/x^4 ) − (1/x^4 ) )/(((−3x^3 )/x^4 ) − ((10x^2 )/x^4 ) − ((50)/x^4 )))  lim_(x→+∞)  ((5−0−0)/(0−0−0))=5  i even forget that (5/0)=∞  so my answer seems correct

your anser is not correct?cheyboy genaly if  p(x)=a_n x^n  +a_(n−1) x^(n−1)  +....a_(0 )   and  q(x)=b_m x^m  +b_(m−1) x^(m−1) +...+b_o   with a_n ≠0 and b_m ≠0  lim_(x→+∞)   ((p(x))/(q(x)))= lim_(x→+ ∞)   ((a_n  x^n )/(b_m x^m ))  and  lim_(x→−∞)  ((p(x))/(q(x))) =lim_(x→−∞)   ((a_n x^n )/(b_m x^m )) for that  lim_(x→+∞)   ((5x^4  −10x^2 −1)/(−3x^3  −10x^2  −50))=lim_(x→+∞)  ((5x^4 )/(−3 x^3 ))  =lim_(x→+∞)  −(5/3)x=−∞  .

= lim_(x→+∞)   ((5x^4 )/(−3x^3 ))=lim_(x→+∞)  ((−5)/3)x=−∞ .

$$=\:{lim}_{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} \:\:\frac{\mathrm{5}{x}^{\mathrm{4}} }{−\mathrm{3}{x}^{\mathrm{3}} }={lim}_{{x}\rightarrow+\infty} \:\frac{−\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{3}}{x}=−\infty\:. \\ $$

=lim_(x→+∞)  x[((5x^3 −10x−(1/x))/(−3x^3 +10x^2 +50))]    =(lim_(x→+∞)  x)×lim_(x→+∞) (((5−((10)/x^2 )−(1/x^3 ))/(−3+((10)/x)+((50)/x^3 ))))  = −(5/3)lim_(x→+∞)  (x) = −∞ .

The answer in the book is ∞.Certainly  it′s wrong.

$$\mathrm{The}\:\mathrm{answer}\:\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{book}\:\mathrm{is}\:\infty.\mathrm{Certainly} \\ $$$$\mathrm{it}'\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{wrong}. \\ $$
