At first I was confused. Then I was laughing, both at the joke, and at me

Apparently I'm the only one not getting this. . . :P blame it on sleep deprivation and the fact that I haven't had a math class in 8 years hehe

Then look at it again. You'll see. It's a good one! Edit: you won't need expert math knowledge. The student apparently didn't

LOL at both, good ones.
Here's a hint for those that didn't get it, on the second one the answer is a sideways 5, which isn't a real symbol like the sideways 8 meaning infinity. Now take another look at them and why the student doesn't get it (IIRC they both equal infinity). Last edited by Zeraph; 12-16-2005 at 02:25 PM.. |

Chalk me up as another who didn't understand the joke until it was explained. The first one made no sense to me, so it really wasn't possible for me to process the second in any way.

so the limit actually does not exist..... unless the limit says x -> 8+ then it would be infinity but it doesnt have the + after 8, so it approaches 8 from both sides yes, from the right, the limit does approach infinity but when it comes from the left, it approaches negative infinity you can make it right by squaring the denominator of the equation, then the limit would approach infinity so that's why it's wrong but good joke |
