Conflicting Answers

Posted 9 years ago

Hi,

I recently purchased a subscription for WolframalphaPro and the step-by-step answer is different than what is initially given.

I was looking for the limit as x approaches infinity of (e^x)/(e^(8x)) . The answer is given as 0 (this is the correct one) but the step-by-step solution is infinity. Did I mess something up or is it a bug?

Thanks, Chris

I guess a bug. I sent it on the the Wolfram|Alpha math developers. (To be fair to them, it could be a bug they inherited from me, since I worked on that limit stuff once upon a time. But not the step-by-step part.)
