Could anyone help me how to solve this (step by step) limit as x tends to -oo?

we're gonna need to use another branch of the logarithm for this one, boys

>> No.7508303

forgot to say, but log(5x) should be ln(5x). Wolframalpha did that, sorry

is it just me or does this explain nothing

it should be 0 as long as the contour isn't an infinite spiral that encloses the origin. Then the imaginary part remains finite, the real part is just log of the magnitude, and the denominator grows as |x|, which dominates log x.

your function isnt defined for x <= 0, so you cant look for a limit when x-> -infinity

I was hoping one of you smart anons could help me with problems 1.5 and 1.6

I don't usually post stuff like this but im desperate and if a kind anon could point me in the right direction or outright solve it, i'd be eternally grateful

>> No.7508874

>>7508873
do you know what bijection means ? 1.5 is basically that...
what's the problem with 1.6 ?

You need to make an effort on what you need help on, this is basic shit.

>>7508873
The key fact that you need is that s^n is a group

1.5)Yes. Any bijection f from {1,2,3} to itself has a unique bijective inverse satisfying f^-1(f(x))=x for x = 1,2,3. f^-1 is also a permutation.
1.6) Yes. the composition of two bijections from {1,2,3} to itself is again a bijection from {1,2,3} to itself.

Good luck anon

Thank you kind anons could you please provide a little proof for 1.6 at least? I'm dying over here

>> No.7508884

>>7508288

It's an indeterminate form of inf/inf, apply L'Hopital's rule once and solve.

You'll get: (1/x) / (sqrt(x^2-1). Rewrite to (sqrt(x^2-1) / x^2 which gives 0. Eliminate -1 and you have x / x^2 which is 1/x. Voila'

You can also use symbolab.com to solve them most times. Also this board is not for homework.

I will sketch the proof for you anon.

We need to prove that if f,g:{1,2,3}->{1,2,3} are bijective then f o g is bijective. That means that it's both 1-1 and onto.

1-1:

If f(g(x))=f(g(y)) then g(x) = g(y) using the fact that f is 1-1.
But g(x) = g(y) implies x = y using the fact that g is 1-1. So f o g is 1-1.

onto:

'f is onto' means that given x in {1,2,3} there exists y in {1,2,3} such that f(y) = x.

Suppose we have x in {1,2,3}. Then since f is onto there exists y in {1,2,3} with f(y) = x. But y is in {1,2,3} and g is onto, so there exists z in {1,2,3} s.t. g(z) = y. Hence x = f(g(z)) = f o g (z). So f o g is onto.
