Error calculating limit - jfernan751 - 10-13-2014 11:32 AM

I found an error when calculating the limit of (x+e^x)^(1/x) when x->0 The result of that should be e^2 (checked ploting the function on my Prime and solving it on paper) Any idea of why could that be?

Thanks in advance

I´ve just done on my calculator, on CAS mode, 6031 firmware version, and the result is inmediate: e^2.

I have the same firmware version and have also done it on CAS mode but it keeps returning 1 instead of e^2

Alright, syntax error, my bad. Thanks akmon.

The entire expression must be inside the parentheses ;-)
