A meme for math people
(lemmy.world)
That's not a meme.
Idiots think posting "funny" pictures are memes.
They are either part of the "everything is a meme" bullshit, or they don't care whether the crap they're posting is a meme.
Both crowds will complain that they're not posting to other communities because they're "dead". Neither group sees the irony.
In the end, these idiots are looking for upvotes and have found the community of other idiots who will upvote anything in their feed without a care of where it's posted. This group of idiots can go back to reddit.
It's not less of a meme than most of the other posts in this community.
It's been a while, but I think I remember this one. Lim 1/n =0 as n approaches infinity. Let x^0 be undefined. For any e>0 there exists an n such that |x^(1/n) -1| < e. If you desire x^(1/n) to be continuous at 0, you define x^0 as 1.
E2a: since x^(1/n)>1, you can drop the abs bars. I think you can get an inequality to pick n using logs.
Simpler: x^1 = x, x^-1 = 1/x
x^1 * x^-1 = x^0 = x/x = 1.
Of course, your explanation is the "correct" one - why it's possible that x^0=1. Mine is the simple version that shows how logic checks out using algebraic rules.
Of course you both assume x =/= 0 though.
