Question #c1e0d Calculus Limits Limits at Infinity and Horizontal Asymptotes 1 Answer Andrea S. Jan 13, 2017 #lim_(x->oo)(x/(x+1))^x = 1/e# Explanation: You can write: #(x/(x+1))^x = 1/((x+1)/x)^x = 1/((1+1/x)^x# As: #lim_(x->oo) (1+1/x)^x = e# then: #lim_(x->oo)(x/(x+1))^x = 1/e# Answer link Related questions What kind of functions have horizontal asymptotes?
