MTH 102 Differentiation Objective Question

Question

Evaluate \( \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{10^8 x^5 + 10^6 x^4 + 10^4 x^2}{10^9 x^6 + 10^7 x^5 + 10^5 x^3} \).
Options
A 1
B 0
Correct Answer
C 1/10
D -1/10
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

For rational functions as ( x \to \infty ), the highest power of ( x ) dominates. Since the denominator has a higher degree (6) than the numerator (5), the limit is 0.

Hint

Compare the degrees of the numerator and denominator polynomial.
