Formula 8: lim n n! (Most students think the answer is 1 because lim n n 1. )

1) Great problem: Find lim ( )

(1 ) n
n9 n 9
n e e7
Fastest Solution: lim ( ) lim
n n 2 n 2 2
(1 ) n e
n
REMINDER : 1 , 00 , 0 are the undefined limits in exponents (why?) (Take their ln)
3
2)lim (1 ) n 1 !!!(undefined) 3
The answer is ofcourse e (by Formula 5).
n n

3)lim ( ) = 1 !!!(undefined) The answer here is e

The following method in taking limits of exponents is acceptable to me provided we do NOT run into
1 , 00 , 0 (the Undefined limits in exponents). For example,
5n 1 n 5
5) lim ( ) ( )
n 3n 2 3
3n 9 n 3
6) lim ( ) ( ) 0
n 5n 2 5
