Quote:The value .9^ is not infinitely long, to express it in standard form is however. It is a repeating number, and therefore not an irrational number. It is not a variable either, so it is not a function. It does not get continuously larger, not even by your logic either, as by your logic it just gets closer and closer to one.Oh, it isn't infinitely long? Then it isn't endless (synonym), and doesn't equal 1.
Quote:And how does the concept of infinity have anything to do with adjectives?Considering that it is one... a great deal. Infinity is the quality of being infinite. A quality is an adjective (A distinctive attribute). Being blue is a quality... just as being infinite is a quality. Infinity is often used to imagine a number endlessly huge.
It is also an adverb when used to describe another quality, such as infinitely small. Either way, it is just a descriptive word meant to convey something's limitlessness (endlessness).
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
