limiting value

[untold zodiac]

this is for question 12b

[sleek obsidian]

well as n approaches infinity so does n^2 so the 2 is going to become less significant

and we can ignore it so it essentially becomes

3n^2/n^2

which is 3

[untold zodiac]

what are you trying to get as the limiting value? I dont really understand what it's asking for?

[sleek obsidian]

so the limiting value is the number that this expression will tend to as n approaches infinity

so if n was an incredibly large number

the value of the expression would be 3
