Given lim x^2*f(x)=L as x approaches infinity. This can be separated into (lim x^2 as x approaches infinity) * (lim f(x) as x approaches infinity). For this limit to evaluate to a constant integer, the function f(x) must be a multiple of x^-2. For example, if f(x) = 5x^-2, then the limit would be 5. Any multiple of this function, x^-2, has a limit of 0 as x approaches infinity. Therefore, the limit as x approaches inifinity of f(x) must be 0. Please request a clarification if any part of this answer is not clear before you rate it. Thanks, chis-ga |
