Homework Statement
Lim ((e[tex]^{2}[/tex])-([tex]\frac{t-3}{3}([/tex] * e^[tex]^{\frac{t}{3}})[/tex]))
t -> [tex]-\infty[/tex]
[sorry for the formatting, I tried my best! that is "The limit as t approaches negative infinity of e squared minus (t-3/3) e to the t/3)]"]
Homework Equations
I am solving improper integrals to find out if this is convergent or divergent and do not remember how to show on paper to solve for a limit.
The Attempt at a Solution
Well, if memory serves, the limit as we approach negative infinity is a horizontal asymptote, right? But I only remember those silly little coefficient tricks to find a horizontal asymptote. Otherwise, I'd just look on a calculator. Someone tried to explain it to me and said I should think of it as going towards positive infinity first and then negate it ... but even with positive infinity I don't no where to start!
Your detailed instructions/explanations would be awesome! I really want to understand how to do this by hand.
