Question

Evaluate the following limits:

`lim_(x -> oo)(1 + "k"/x)^("m"/x)`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

Let A = `lim_(x -> oo)(1 + "k"/x)^("m"/x)`

Put `"k"/x` = y

`"m"/x = "m"/"k" * y`

When x → ∞

We have y → 0

∴ A = `lim_(y -> 0) (1 + y)^("m"/"k" * y)`

log A = `log[lim_(y -> 0) (1 + y)^("m"/"k" * y)]`

= `lim_(y -> 0)[log(1 +y)^("m"/"k" * y)]`

= `lim_(y -> 0) ["m"/"k" * y log(1 + y)]`

= `"m"/"k" xx 0 xx log(1 + 0)`

log A = `"m/"k" xx 0 xx 0` = 0

A = e0

`lim_(x -> oo)(1 + "k"/x)^("m"/x)` = 1
