l’Hôpital’s rule


L’Hôpital’s rule states that given an unresolvable limit of the form 00 or , the ratio of functions f(x)g(x) will have the same limit at c as the ratio f(x)g(x). In short, if the limit of a ratio of functions approaches an indeterminate form, then

limxcf(x)g(x)=limxcf(x)g(x)

provided this last limit exists. L’Hôpital’s rule may be applied indefinitely as long as the conditions are satisfied. However it is important to note, that the nonexistance of limf(x)g(x) does not prove the nonexistance of limf(x)g(x).

Example:We try to determine the value of

limxx2ex.

As x approaches the expression becomes an indeterminate form . By applying L’Hôpital’s rule twice we get

limxx2ex=limx2xex=limx2ex=0.
