Let $f$ such that $\lim_{x\to 0}f(x)=\infty$ and let $g(x)=\sin(\frac{1}{x})$. I know that $g$ does not have a limit at $x=0$, but what about $\lim_{x\rightarrow 0}(f(x)+g(x))$?

Thanks!

Write $f(x)+g(x)=f(x) \left( 1+\frac{g(x)}{f(x)} \right)$ and notice that the fraction tends to zero since the numerator is bounded and the denominator diverges.

Since $\sin(x)$ is bounded for all $x$ then $\sin(1/x)$ is also bounded.

Hence the limit is infinity.

Always limit is infinity considering your problem.

    The statement is true, but it's rather useless to the OP, since it gives no explanation at all.2012-05-09
