Infinity minus 1-you can't really express the number,in the same way you can't express infinity.


What is Eight times a number is the same as that number plus 84 what is the number?

This is a trick question: Eight times infinity is infinity. Infinity + 84 is also infinity. Is this really what you do all day: thinking up these sophomoric questions? Get a life PLEASE.


Is infinity plus one the largest number in the world?

Not exactly. Infinity means that the number goes on forever so you really can't add one to it.


Can infinity be small?

Infinity is not really a number, it is more of a concept and it is very large. When you want to talk about something very small, you can extend the concept to negative infinity.When we use infinity in math problems we say we are dealing with extended real numbers.Many people thing of infinity as something very very large and you can get quite close but never get there. Same idea for negative infinity. Think of walking on the number line in either the positive or negative direction. The ends of it represent infinity and negative infinity but the number line goes on forever in both directions. So you can never really get to the end.


Does magnum infinity really grow back?

Yes they can. I didnt believe it until I had one.


Is infinity divided by infinity equal to infinity?

First off, infinity is not a number in conventional mathematics. In Calculus, you can work with infinity through the language of limits. It is important to note that when we use the shorthand: ∞/∞ What we are REALLY saying is "the limit of a function which diverges to infinity divided by the limit of a function which diverges to infinity". We are not actually saying "infinity divided by infinity". Now that THAT is out of the way, we can get to the answer. ∞/∞ is of indeterminate form, meaning that the division could converge to 0, it could converge to 1, it could converge to an arbitrary constant, or it could diverge to infinity. In order to figure out which of these cases is true, you need to apply L'Hospital's rule, by taking the derivative of the numerator and the denominator (separately).


What is minus infinity?

minus infinity is not really a number, but some call it an extended real number. It is an idea or a concept. If you head down the number lines going to the left, that is to say from -2 to -3 to -100 then to -10000 and keep going forever and ever (which is a very long time) you will get to negative infinity or minus infinity.


Is infinity an imaginary number?

no... because there is no such ting as infinity being a number ______________________________________________________________ Contributer 2: That's a right answer from contributer 1. But if you are really paranoid and desperately want to find out what infinity is, prepare to have your mind blown. This is not real #'s we are talking about. x/0 would equal infinity and -x/o equals negative infinity. We are assuming 0 is the threshold. This is not incorrect, simply very advanced.


What is infinity plus infinity?
