There is no number 'infinity' so we are obliged to ask for a limit:

lim pi-x as x tends to infinity. pi-x = 1/pix. As x increases pix increases 'much faster' making the fraction 1/pix smaller and smaller but always positive.

Thus when x is large the fraction will tend toward zero.

Incidentally, whenever you want to demonstrate these behaviours of functions for yourself may I suggest either of the following:

  • GeoGebra which is free and can be installed on your own computer
  • Wolfram-Alpha which is a web site that is free to use

Negative infinity plus negative infinity equals negative infinity.


How do you take the integral from negative infinity to 4 of 1 over1 plus x2?

Recall that the antiderivative of 1/(1+x2) is arctan(x). arctan(negative infinity) = -pi/2. arctan(4) = approximately 1.325818. The answer then is arctan(4) - (pi/2) = approximately -0.244979


7 times the integral from negative infinity to positive infinity of e raised to the -5x2 divided by the square root of 2pi?

The integral you are referring to is the normalization of a Gaussian function. Specifically, the integral of ( e^{-5x^2} ) from negative infinity to positive infinity equals ( \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{5}} ). Therefore, multiplying that result by ( 7 ) gives ( 7 \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{5}} ). The final expression is ( 7 \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{5}} ).

What is pi calculated to infinity?

Pi is an irrational number so it will go on to infinity. That also means it will take to infinity to calculate the infinite point. By definition a finite number will never be found.
