0.999... is the result of a limiting operation
[eqn]\mathrm{lim}_{N\to\infty}9\sum_{n=1}^N\frac{1}{10^n}[/eqn]
which is just a geometric series and is precisely equal to 1, while [math]e^x[/math] is never equal to zero for any real number [math]x[/math], no matter how large in the negative direction.

However, if we take the limit as x tends to negative infinity we do get
[eqn]\mathrm{lim}_{x\to-\infty} e^x=0[/eqn]

Also note that if I cut off the sum at any finite N, I end up with a number not quite equal to one, no matter how large I take N to be.

The limit does.

1/3 = 0.333. . .
(1/3) * 3 = (0.333. . .) * 3
(1/3) * 3 = 3/3 = 1
(0.333 . . .) * 3 = 0.999. . .

Therefore 0.999 = 1

By exponential function approaching zero I assume you mean a reciprocal, 1/x, which approaches 0 at increasing values of x.
Writing out the values given from the reciprocal function starting at x = 1 looks like the following.

1/1 = 1
1/2 = 0.5
1/3 = 0.333. . .
1/4 = 0.25

1/(10^6) = 0.000001

1/(10^G64) = 0.000. . .001

As you can see, as X grows towards infinity, Y diminishes towards zero. However, the value of Y = 0 is unattainable for any value of X on the number line, because every finite number will result in a finite number of divisions of 1.
One cannot set X = ∞ to attain Y = 0 either. However, we will proceed stating that 1/∞ = 0, and explore what that implies.

1/∞ = 0
(1/∞) * 2 = 0 * 2
(1/∞) * 2 = (1 * 2)/(∞ * 2)
1 * 2 = 2
∞ * 2 = ∞
0 * 2 = 0
2/∞ = 0
1/∞ = 2/∞

Therefore 1 = 2

Clearly something is wrong. If 1/∞ = 0, then all numbers divided by infinity equal zero, and by extension all numbers equal each other.
Furthermore,

1/∞ = 0
(1/∞) * ∞ = 0 * ∞
1 = 0 * ∞

2/∞ = 0
(2/∞) = 0 * ∞
2 = 0 * ∞

Again, the use of infinite seems to imply all numbers are equal. This is not the case. In reality, 1/∞ != 0 , there is no solution to 1/∞ because infinity is not a number. The outcome of the equation is undefined, and offers no meaningful result at X = ∞
Therefore, at Y = 0, there is a 'hole' or asymptote on the plot. Likewise, and for similar reasons, there is an asymptote at X = 0 as well, where the result of 1/0 is also undefined.

Why did I do this.

What? The reals are necessarily such that no infinitesimal or infinite elements exist.
Your "proof" there shows that your proposition that they aren't equal requires a decimal expansion to both be finite and infinite.

Like do you think an "infinite'th" decimal place exists? Do you believe "an infinite" amount of 9's repeating in 0.999.... or do you believe it's "an infinity" of 9's?

Since infinity is not a number, there cannot exist an infinite amount. The concept of this infinite amount object that you believe is validated is actually null, void, and undefined. There is a similar object in an infinity, but it doesn't effect to enumerate. The grotesque mentally challenged brainlet gymnastics occurs when mathleticians place infinity on or near a numberline. Infinity is not a quantity that can be enumerated to or even towards. It is an entirely seperate identity from the set of all numbers. Putting infinity on the numberline is like putting a couch in a cage as a Zoo attraction. Couches aren't wild animals. Infinity isn't a number.

"Infinite" is fucking nonsense btw. I think the word you're looking for is "indefinite".

Yes, for example the cardinal number representing the amount of natural numbers is infinity.

>Like do you think an "infinite'th" decimal place exists?
No, all decimal places correspond to a natural number and are unending like the natural numbers. Saying there are infinite natural numbers does not mean there is a natural number called infinity. That is simply a naive intuition caused by incorrectly applying the expectation that any finite ordered set of size n has an nth member. You rely on naive intuition because you are too stupid or too pigheaded to learn the rules of what you're talking about, this is the source of your difficulties.

Infinity is a number though. Do you ever get tired of having these fallacious arguments debunked?

>The concept of this infinite amount object that you believe is validated is actually null, void, and undefined.
The only thing null, void, and undefined is the argument against infinity you keep pretending to have but won't show.

What does this mean?

>The grotesque mentally challenged brainlet gymnastics occurs when mathleticians place infinity on or near a numberline. Infinity is not a quantity that can be enumerated to or even towards.
What relevance does enumeration even have on the real number line? You cannot enumerate to *anything* on the real number line, let alone the extend real number line. What is your point?

"An infinity" is a contained idea.
"An infinite -" "amount, quantity, number of, iterations, etc." is an invalid concept. There is nothing intrinsically pertaining explicitly to math ir even numbers in the idea of "infinity", and mathlets assume otherwise by trying to extend the identity of infinity to "an infinite" number.

By the implication or extended logical assumption of there being an infinity of 9's in 0.999.... , this does not mean that the 9's are countable, roundable or reduceable, which means functions like [eqn]\sum_{n=1}^{\color{red}{\infty}} \frac{9}{10^n} [/eqn] do not produce the classically desired result, given:
1. The misuse of infinity by placing it's invocation in the structure of the expression that asks for an amount of iterations
2. The obvious enumeration which occurs from the solving of partial sums is at ends with the structure of an object indicative of infinity lacking this feature.

Where "object" here is used to describe sets, both in theory or analysis of work accomplished to achieve a result.

Which means [math]\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{3}{10^n}[/math] is not only invalid math, but if it were valid the result of [math]0.\bar{3}[/math] is not the same literal value as the result from [math]\frac{1}{3} \approx 0.\bar{3} \text{ aka } \frac{1}{3}
= 0.\bar{3}_{\frac{1}{3}} [/math]

>> No.9747293

a more true representation of the classic infinite sum can or should instead be written as
[eqn]\sum_{\n=1}^{\stackrel{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{Z}}} [/eqn] which invokes to iterate through the set of integers. This gets away from the misinterpretation of infinity and clarifies the extent of accurate calculation. In the classic infinite sum, any arbitrary section of real finite partial sums exists to defy the unenumerable nature of an infinity, which without invoking infinity allows to strictly adhere to a sensible, enumerable result, thus using Z instead of a hard invocation of any specific limit too allows for arbitrary accuracy just the same. Such a sum [math]\sum_{n=1}^{\stackrel{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{Z}}} \frac{9}{10^n} = 0.\bar{9}[/math] can exist without sleights against common sense in knowing the enumerative nature of the sum structure, even if infinity were a valid input, should only create the same number object as the Z-iterative structure where finite accuracy is all that can be acquired, for when treating infinity with numerical properties in an iterative sum as in classical mathletism, only real finite partials of any arbitrary amount may be accounted for.

>"An infinity" is a contained idea.
Why do you base your arguments on vague, made up terms like "contained idea?" Use English.

>"An infinite -" "amount, quantity, number of, iterations, etc." is an invalid concept.
Wrong, look at the cardinal numbers.

This does not elucidate a difference, it just confuses the argument even more.

>By the implication or extended logical assumption of there being an infinity of 9's in 0.999.... , this does not mean that the 9's are countable, roundable or reduceable
Wrong, as I already explained, the decimals are in correspondence to the naturals, thus by definition they are countable. And what does "not roundable or reducible" even mean in this context? Is 1 "roundable or reducible." Stop pretending that your arbitrary use of mathematical terms is actual math.

1 is not an object with a prescribed relation to infinity you dumb cunt, regardless if you approach this with either shitlet mathlet education or an attempt at using your brain to create original ideas. The topic is "repeating" decimals.

Infinity is not a number object. Its a self contained idea. It doesnt branch out into other ideas, such as the implement of an "infinite number" to be quite literally arbitrarily, vaguely, and inconsistently used in math as more of a fucking retarded magical plot device to get an answer. All implements of the infinite number in classical math read like a bad meme of
>1. expression
>2. invoke infinity
>3. ???????
>4. PROFIT

Because the rules and implements of infinity will often change dynamically even so far towards changing mid-fucking-equation after initially starting with a different infinite definition whose assignment as a variable or operator in an expression is not updated once the arbitrary change occurs.

If there can exist a number "infinity" to describe the repeating nature of the decimals we are working with, then this same number of "infinity" can be used in arithmetic.

If however we cannot use the number of "infinity" in arithmetic, then we cannot use the number of "infinity" to describe the repeating nature of the decimals we are working with.

Let me explain it in a way you can understand:
Suppose you try kiss your gf (we've all done this, right)
and 1=you kissing your gf
So how close do your lips need to be in order for it to be considered a kiss?
The closer you get to her the smaller the smaller the distance in between but there could always be a little bit further that you push your lips closer
So you are 0.9999 units of distance away from properly kissing your gf
And then 0.99999
And then 0.999999
And it goes on 0.99999...
But after a while that distance gets physically impossible to get smaller so you have kissed your gf (in a very creepy and violent way)
And so you get 0.99....=1
