Homework Statement
This is not homework
Could you help me understand what happens to this function
[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{100..1^2+199...9}- 100...1}[/tex]
when the dots are filled with 0's and 9's , shouldn't the result be 1/.99999...)= 1.?
but if to this input (http://m.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1/+((sqrt(100000001^2+199999999)-100000001)&x=9&y=1) ≈ 1.000 000 02,
I add one digit :(http://m.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1/+((sqrt(1000000001^2+1999999999)-1000000001)&x=6&y=7),
I get: ≈ 0.00002262 which is 1/44208.7
shouldn't it be 1.000 000 002 ?
