Q. For the function f(x) f(x) given below, evaluate limxf(x) \lim _{x \rightarrow \infty} f(x) and limxf(x) \lim _{x \rightarrow-\infty} f(x) .\newlinef(x)=5sin(4x3) f(x)=5 \sin \left(4 x^{3}\right)
  1. Limit as xx approaches infinity: First, let's consider the limit as xx approaches infinity.limxf(x)=limx5sin(4x3)\lim_{x \to \infty}f(x) = \lim_{x \to \infty}5\sin(4x^3)Since the sine function oscillates between 1-1 and 11, the value of sin(4x3)\sin(4x^3) will also oscillate between 1-1 and 11 as xx approaches infinity.
  2. Oscillation with scaling: The coefficient 55 does not affect the oscillation, it just scales the amplitude of the sine function.\newlineSo, the limit does not exist because the function keeps oscillating and does not settle to a single value.
  3. Limit as xx approaches negative infinity: Now, let's consider the limit as xx approaches negative infinity.\newlinelimxf(x)=limx5sin(4x3)\lim_{x \to -\infty}f(x) = \lim_{x \to -\infty}5\sin(4x^3)\newlineThe reasoning is the same as for the limit as xx approaches infinity.\newlineThe sine function will still oscillate between 1-1 and 11, regardless of whether xx is going to positive or negative infinity.
