Math Problem Statement

\lim _{x\to +\infty }\left(\frac{sin\left(e^{-x}\right)}{e^{-x}}\right)

Solution

To solve the limit

limx+(sin(ex)ex),\lim_{x \to +\infty} \left(\frac{\sin\left(e^{-x}\right)}{e^{-x}}\right),

Step-by-Step Solution:

  1. Examine the behavior of exe^{-x}:

    • As x+x \to +\infty, ex0+e^{-x} \to 0^+. Therefore, the argument of the sine function exe^{-x} also approaches 0.
  2. Simplify the fraction:

    • Rewrite the expression: sin(ex)ex.\frac{\sin\left(e^{-x}\right)}{e^{-x}}. Let u=exu = e^{-x}. Then, as x+x \to +\infty, u0+u \to 0^+. The limit becomes: limu0+sin(u)u.\lim_{u \to 0^+} \frac{\sin(u)}{u}.
  3. Apply the standard limit result:

    • It is a well-known limit that: limu0sin(u)u=1.\lim_{u \to 0} \frac{\sin(u)}{u} = 1.
  4. Conclude the result:

    • Hence, the given limit evaluates to: limx+(sin(ex)ex)=1.\lim_{x \to +\infty} \left(\frac{\sin\left(e^{-x}\right)}{e^{-x}}\right) = 1.

Final Answer:

limx+(sin(ex)ex)=1.\lim_{x \to +\infty} \left(\frac{\sin\left(e^{-x}\right)}{e^{-x}}\right) = 1.

Relative Questions:

  1. Why does sin(u)u\frac{\sin(u)}{u} approach 1 as u0u \to 0?
  2. What is the significance of the substitution u=exu = e^{-x}?
  3. How does the behavior of exe^{-x} as xx \to \infty influence the limit?
  4. Are there cases where limu0sin(u)u\lim_{u \to 0} \frac{\sin(u)}{u} might not hold?
  5. How would the limit change if sin(ex)\sin(e^{-x}) was replaced with another function like cos(ex)\cos(e^{-x})?

Tip:

Understanding standard limits like limx0sin(x)x=1\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(x)}{x} = 1 is crucial, as they often simplify complex problems!
