    Functions
    Let A be a piecewise function


    -(n^4) / e^n n smaller or equal to 50


    e^n / (n^3 +3) n bigger than 50

    This function:

    a) converges to 0
    b) diverges to -infinity
    c) diverges to +infinity
    d) is irregular

    For the first part of the function it diverges to -infinity and the second part diverges to positive infinity so its irregular?

    Re: Functions
    Can you tell me what you mean by "converges" here? Normally a statement of convergence says something like "A(n) converges to __ / diverges as n --> ___".

    Re: Functions
    I dont think it specified... I guess it's when you insert the limits of the function
