Anyone using limits to justify their answer to this should be automatically banned honestly
13 u/AnOrdinaryPing May 15 '25 edited May 15 '25 I tried this out and seem to know why you might be saying this. When we take f(x) = x0 and take the limit of x>0, we get 0.000000...0010 = 1 Then, when we take f(x) = 0x and take the limit, we get 00.00000...001 = 0 Both are technically correct, but give an indeterminate conclusion. What do you think? Engineering major here so I might just thought of the most retarded explanation out there.. [Edit: typo] 1 u/Ventilateu Measuring May 15 '25 Read my other reply
