  • In this video I explained how to use the negative sign when x approaches negative infinity. i got a copyright claim on the old music I used. I am working on cleaning it up.

  • @PrimeNewtons
    @PrimeNewtons  Před 3 lety +57

    Be careful! This explanation is relevant to Radical expressions containing exponents that are odd multiples of 2 (for example x^6, x^10, x^14 , etc.). If the highest exponent of the argument of the radical was an even multiple of 2 (for example x^4, x^8, etc.) , the negative will be irrelevant and the limit will be positive. I will provide another video to explain this.

      So x^2 is an odd multiple? since its 2x1 and 1 is odd.

    • @FinBoyXD
      @FinBoyXD Před 4 měsíci

      @@odgarig8601 Yes, 1 is odd, so 2*1 is odd multiple of 2 (x^2), 2*2 is even multiple of 2 (x^4), and 2*3 is again odd (x^6) etc. But this is the squared version already. The original was x^3, and here the exponent needs to be odd for the video to be correct and the negative sign to be added.
      It only works for odd multiples of 2 because when you turn the x^3 into a square root of a square, you actually need absolute value signs around x^3 to do that. And since because x^3 is negative when x approaches negative infinity the |x^3| is -x^3 , and therefore x^3 = -|x^3|, which then you can square and square root, having x^3 = -|x^3| = -sqrt((x^3)^2) = -sqrt(x^6).
      But if you have even exponent (which when squared will be even multiple of 2), like x^4, it doesn't introduce the negative sign, because x^4 is still positive when x approaches negative infinity. Then you can just take the absolute value, and square and square root: x^4 = |x^4| = sqrt((x^4)^2) = sqrt(x^8).

    When it comes to limits--especially before doing any derivatives--this sort of problem and the ones with one-sided limits require more than just plugging in values and getting a number. It requires some thinking on the student's part. For these sorts of problems, particularly the one worked out in this video, I would always suggest to do a quick check before starting. And that would be to check the sign of the leading term as x gets very large--in this case, negatively large--to see what the sign of the answer should be.

    5:38 I have a calculus final exam tomorrow! My professor indeed says that I can't forget to write the following in between my steps for solving the problems:
    "Limit" sign
    "Integral" sign with a "dx" or "d" with a variable that I am integrating/taking the antiderivative of
    "+ C" at the end of my answer with the antiderivative.
    If I'm taking the antiderivative of "1 / x", then it needs to be "ln(|nx|) + C)" -- I don't think that he told me that I should write the "n" in the natural log, but I will just in case, and the number/variable "n" represents another constant/number. And the reason why the antiderivative of "1/x" is "ln(|nx|) + C" is because if we take the derivative of "ln(x)" we will get 1 / x, but if we take the derivative of "ln(nx)" while "n" is another number, then we will also get "1 / x", but either the chain rule, or using the "log of product = sum of logs" rule, knowing that we will get "d/dx (ln(nx)) = d/dx (ln(n) + ln(x)) = d/dx (ln(x)) = 1 / x". I just want to write the answer as "ln(|nx|)" to be on the safe side!
