  • Why is 1^infinity indeterminate ? I thought that it would just be 1x1x1....=1. Can you explain that please ? :) Thanks. :D

  • @AceAites cause it is a limit... the value is getting close to 1 , but not necessarily equal.

  • @AceAites so when you raise that number to a large power, many things can happen.

  • @patrickJMT is that just for 1^infinity or does any number to the power of infinity become indeterminate?

  • @applesnnbananas 1^infinity only.

  • @AirJordanXVIII actually, both spellings are common

  • @IGNsucks bernoulli rocks (which one though). those poor brothers fought. one day, when you all get rich, you can pay me to do some math research but you all get all the credit.

  • i am so feeling this guy..just 20 mins has helped me alot..hehe.thanks men.

  • @maccamracecar nvm I see my fault.

  • @Angelgrrl04 My professor said it has many spellings.

  • I thought (1/cos(3x))=sec(3x) not tan(3x).

  • Why did you write y as e^ln(y)?

  • @tifrogers44 5 is a constant, when you take a limit of a constant, it equals the constant

  • On the second example why does the 5 stay for the ride and not turn to 0 when L'Hospital's rule is applied?

  • I thought it was spelled L'Hopital's Rule o.o
