Holiday Reflection #2

L I M I T S !

-They NEVER go awayyyyy!! So i'm going to review limits to make sure i'm ready for when we get back.

lim
x->infinity

1. Degree at top = degree bottom lim is the coefficient.
2. Degree top > degree bottom lim is infinity or -infinity.
3. Degree top < degree bottom lim is 0.

EXAMPLE:

lim (2x+5)/(3x^2+1)= 0
x-->infinity

*The answer is 0 because the top degree is less than the bottom degree.
*And if worse comes to worse, you can always use the table, but make sure to see if you can't do it a shorter way because the table takes longer.
