Math Problem Statement
Solution
The limit problem in the image is:
To evaluate this limit, we observe that both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials. The highest degree term in both the numerator and denominator is . As approaches infinity, the terms with the highest degree dominate the behavior of the expression.
Step-by-step solution:
-
Identify the highest degree term in both the numerator and denominator. The highest degree term is in both cases:
- In the numerator:
- In the denominator:
-
Divide every term in the numerator and denominator by to simplify the limit:
This simplifies to:
- As , the terms with in the denominator () approach zero. So the expression reduces to:
- The final result is:
So, the value of the limit is:
