$$lim_xtoinfty frac(2x+sqrtx^2-1)^n+(2x-sqrtx^2-1)^nx^n.
$$

I tried to do the binomial expansion and then operate only with the odds but I couldn't find the limit.Can somebody help me,please?

  • Again, you don't need B.E. - the limit is $3^n+1$.

You have
$$frac(2x+sqrtx^2-1)^n + (2x-sqrtx^2-1)^nx^n= left(2 + sqrt1-frac1x^2right)^n +left(2 - sqrt1-frac1x^2right)^n geq left(2 + sqrt1-frac1x^2right)^n$$



which tends to $+infty$ when $n rightarrow +infty$.

    Note that
    $$frac(2xpmsqrtx^2-1)^nx^n=left(2pmsqrt1-frac1x^2right)^n $$
    So at least one of the summands is $ge 2^n$, and the other still positive.




    Even if we allow complex $x$, we have an expression of the form $a^n+b^n$ with $a+b=4$, hence either one of $|a|,|b|$ is larger than the other and then larger then $2$ (thus leading to divergence), or $|a|=|b|$ and then the real parts of $a^n$ and $b^n$ are always equal, but are unbounded.

    $$lim_ntoinfty frac(2x+sqrtx^2-1)^n+(2x-sqrtx^2-1)^nx^n$$



    $$= lim_ntoinftybigg (2+sqrt1- 1/x^2bigg)^n+lim_ntoinftybigg(2-sqrt1- 1/x^2bigg )^n = infty$$
