Limits and Continuity
Evaluate for some constant real number .
It's undefined due to an indeterminate form resulting from direct substitution of .
The limit evaluates to following derivative rules for power functions.
The limit equals since cube root functions have consistent slopes regardless of .
This simplifies directly to one through cancelation in both numerator and denominator with direct evaluation.
What is the limit of as x approaches positive infinity?
Undefined
Does not exist
How does examining algebraic structure change strategy assessing possible vertical asymptotes compared to traditional graphical methods applied to the function ?
Calculating the limit as approaches from both sides to assess whether it is infinite or does not exist hints towards vertical asymptote presence.
Adopting a numerical sequential approach, substituting successively close values around -predicted zone to catch incremental -value escalation suggesting vertical asymptote occurrence.
Algebraically determining values causing the denominator zero allows identification of vertical asymptotes precisely without graphical tools requirement.
Implementing derivative techniques to evaluate behavior near -determined points, understanding potential inflection influence over asymptotic tendency.
Simplify .
