4. none of the other answers 5. limit = Explanation:

lui (el22284) Quest HW1 perutz (56210) Set f ( x) = x4 1 , Then


x1

g ( x) = x3 1 .

Explanation: The notion of limit at innity tells us that if f ( x) lim = , x g ( x) then f ( x) > 1 g ( x)

lim f (x) = 0,

x1

lim g (x) = 0 ,

so LHospitals rule applies. Thus f ( x) f ( x) lim = lim . x 1 g ( x) x 1 g ( x) But f ( x) = 4 x3 , Consequently, 4 limit = . 3 009 10.0 points g ( x) = 3 x2 .

for all large x. But then f ( x) > g ( x) holds for all large x so long as g (x) > 0 for large x, allowing us to multiply through the inequality by g (x). Similarly, if
x

lim

f ( x) = 0, g ( x)

then

f ( x) < 1 g ( x)

Use LHospitals Rule to determine which of the inequalitites A. 100 < ex , x

for all large x, so if g (x) > 0 for all large x, then f ( x) < g ( x) for all large x. On the other hand, if
x

B. ex < x2 + 100, C. e

lim f (x) = = lim g (x) ,

holds for all large x. 1. none of them 2. B and C only 3. C only correct 4. all of them 5. A and C only 6. A and B only 7. B only 8. A only

then we can use LHospitals Rule to determine f ( x) lim . x g ( x) Similarly, if


x

lim f (x) = 0 = lim g (x) ,


x

then we can use LHospitals Rule to determine f ( x) lim . x g ( x) In this way, we can use LHospitals Rule to compare the rates of growth or decay of f (x) and g (x) when x . For the three given inequalities, therefore, we have to choose appropriatef and g and make sure that g (x) > 0 for all large x.

lui (el22284) Quest HW1 perutz (56210) A. FALSE: set f (x) = ex , Then
x

g ( x) =

100 . x

lim f (x) = 0 = lim g (x) ,


x

and by applying LHospitals Rule twice we see that f ( x) lim = . x g ( x) Thus the inequality e2x > xex + 100 holds for all large x. keywords: 010 10.0 points

and by applying LHospitals Rule we see that


x

lim

f ( x) = 0. g ( x)

Thus the inequality 100 > ex , x not 100 < ex , x holds for all large x. B. FALSE: set f (x) = ex , Then

g (x) = x2 + 100 .

lim f (x) = = lim g (x) ,


x

and by applying LHospitals Rule twice we see that f ( x) = . lim x g ( x) Thus the inequality e not ex < x2 + 100 , holds for all large x. C. TRUE: set f (x) = e2x , Then
x x 2

3 8 Explanation: Set f (x) = 1 cos(3x), g (x) = 4 sin2 (2x) . Then f, g are dierentiable functions such that lim f (x) = lim g (x) = 0 . 5. limit =
x0 x0

> x + 100 ,

Thus LHospitals Rule can be applied: f ( x) f ( x) lim = lim x 0 g ( x) x 0 g ( x) 3 sin(3x) . x 0 16 sin(2x) cos(2x) To compute this last limit we can either apply LHospitals Rule again or use the fact that sin(3x) sin(2x) lim = 3, lim = 2. x0 x0 x x Consequently, = lim

g (x) = xex + 100 .
