limit as x approaches 0 of (4^x-10^x)/x

x \to 0 lim (\frac{4 ^{x} - 1 0 ^{x}}{x})

2 ln (2) - ln (10)

Decimal

- 0.91629 \dots

Solution steps

x \to 0 lim (\frac{4 ^{x} - 1 0 ^{x}}{x})

Apply L'Hopital's Rule

= x \to 0 lim (\frac{ln ( 2 ) \cdot 2 ^{2 x + 1} - 1 0 ^{x} ln ( 10 )}{1})

Plug in the value

x = 0

= \frac{ln ( 2 ) \cdot 2 ^{2 \cdot 0 + 1} - 1 0 ^{0} ln ( 10 )}{1}

Simplify

\frac{ln ( 2 ) \cdot 2 ^{2 \cdot 0 + 1} - 1 0 ^{0} ln ( 10 )}{1} : 2 ln (2) - ln (10)

= 2 ln (2) - ln (10)
