Calculate this limit:
limx→∞=(15+15x)x5
I did this:
(15)x5[(1+1x)x]15
(15)x5(55)15
(15)x5(15)55
limx→∞=(15)x+55
limx→∞=(15)∞=0
Now I checked on Wolfram Alpha and the limit is 1
What did I do wrong? is this the right approach? is there an easier way?:)
Edit:
Can someone please show me the correct way for solving this? thanks.
Thanks
Answer
The limit is indeed 0, but your solution is wrong.
limx→∞(15+15x)x/5=5√limx→∞(15)xlimx→∞(1+1x)x=5√0⋅e=0
And WolframAlpha confirms it: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%281%2F5%2B1%2F%285x%29%29%5E%28x%2F5%29+as+x-%3Einfty
