Err, typing this stuff out is difficult. Here's an example with polynomials: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big-O_notation#Example . It's images so it's easy to read.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big-O_notation I'm able to determine n in simpler cases, but I have no idea how to approach the root of this polynomial.

I'm having some trouble with this discrete question: Find the least natural number n such that √(x² + x³ + 3) is O(xⁿ). With the value of n that you have found, is it true that xⁿ is O( √(x² + x³ + 3) )? Can anyone help?
