Problem:



$lim_{xto infty} frac{3n^2 - n^2 + n - 1}{1 - n + n^3 - 2n^5}$




What I tried




  1. $lim_{xto infty} frac{4n + 1}{- 1 + 3n^2 - 10n^4}$

  2. $lim_{xto infty} frac{4}{6n - 40n^3}$


I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do after this, any help would be much appreciated.

The limit is $0$ because $6n-40n^{3} to -infty$. [ $6n-40n^{3}= -n^{3}(40-frac 6 {n^{2}})$].

    Applying L'Hopital's rule twice gives us the expression in the form $-1/infty to 0$.



    $$begin{aligned}lim_{color{red}{n}to infty}dfrac{3n^2-n^2+n-1}{1-n+n^3-2n^5}&=lim_{nto infty}dfrac{6n-2n+1}{-1+3n^2-10n^4}\&=lim_{nto infty}dfrac{4}{6n-40n^3}to 0end{aligned}$$





    Aliter:



    Dividing numerator and denominator by the highest power prevailing in the expression is usually another way to find limits of rational expressions especially when the variable tends to $infty$.
