SUMMARY
The discussion establishes that for a sequence of real numbers \( (a_n) \) where \( \lim a_n = a \), the asymptotic equality \( \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n \frac{x^n}{n!} \sim ae^x \) holds true as \( x \to \infty \). This result is derived using properties of series and limits, confirming that the behavior of the series closely approximates that of the exponential function scaled by the limit of the sequence. The proof leverages the definition of asymptotic equivalence and the exponential series expansion.
