Simplify Inside Logarithm: Simplify the expression inside the logarithm:Given −x+ln(1+x⋅ex), focus on the term inside the logarithm 1+x⋅ex. As x approaches infinity, ex grows much faster than x, making x⋅ex the dominant term. Thus, 1+x⋅ex approximates to x⋅ex.
Substitute Simplified Expression: Substitute the simplified expression back: Replace 1+xex with xex in the original limit expression, getting −x+ln(xex).
Apply Logarithmic Properties: Apply properties of logarithms:Using the logarithmic identity ln(ab)=ln(a)+ln(b), rewrite ln(xex) as ln(x)+ln(ex). Since ln(ex)=x, the expression becomes −x+ln(x)+x.
Simplify Final Expression: Simplify the expression:The terms −x and x cancel each other out, leaving ln(x). As x approaches infinity, ln(x) also approaches infinity.
