$Evaluate:$
$$lim_xrightarrow infty fracx int_0^x e^x^2 dx e^x^2$$



My attempt



First I dealt with numerator with integral :



As $$int_b^a f(x) dx= int_b^a f(a+b-x),dx$$
To get it as $$int_0^x 1cdot dx =x$$



So the limit turned to be



$$lim_nrightarrow infty frac x^2 e^x^2=0$$



Is it true?

  • Note that the integral in the numerator does not makes sense since your interval of integration depends on the variable you are integrating with respect to. Do you perhaps want $$ int_0^x e^t^2, dt $$ in the numerator?

  • It is likely a typo on their side then. In any case, the computation of your integral is wrong. Do you know L'Hospital's rule?
