The biggest struggles in calculus is not even the calculus concepts it’s the algebra 😂 gotta get strong with the fundamentals before tackling something that takes it multiple steps forward.

The expression is NOT a rational function. A rational function is an expression that is the ratio of two polynomials. You have a radical in your expression, hence NOT a rational function.

You can also omit the non-leading terms.

You can just take the limit as x—> ∞ [sqrt(4x⁶)/-x³ ] and this gives us


2x³/-x³= -2

Can’t we just use the shortcut since they technically have the same degree and do 2x^3/-x^3 and get our answer that way

Or you can use Trocino Method and eliminate and only use the controlling factors.

How is it 4 in top after multiplying x^3??? Would it be 4x^3???

And this should be the horizontal asymptote

Your method fails if you take the limit of the same function to -infinity. You have to be more careful then that sqrt(x^6) = |x^3| not x^3.

Calc is easy I just suck at the algebra part when it comes to complex problems

is it in indeterminant form when it is infinity/-infinity?

I reason that the 1 and the 2 become irrelevant so get rid of them then simplify to -2

This is not correct at all. The limit is -2 only when the x approaches +infinity. Otherwise, when x approaches -infinity the limit goes to +2. You can see it by graphing the function or you can factor 4x^6 inside the square root and then bringing the factor out leaving with |2x^3|. So, since we have to different values the limit as x approaches infinity does not exist.

Only applies to algebraic only polynomials

why you not simplify the root
It will be 1+2x^3

You have
2x cube up and -x cube down

Use the rule and Divide to get -2

Don’t miss the absolute

why is the square root of 1 +x^6 is the same as x^3????
