right that could be a counterexample to that concept. assume we take each and all of the effective integers (a million,2,3,4,5,6...), of which there are a limiteless extensive type. Now, enable's take out each and all of the even numbers, there's a limiteless type of those too. we've for this reason taken a limiteless type of issues remote from a limiteless type of issues, and what are we left with? each and all of the unusual numbers, and wager how a lot of those there are? So, infinity minus infinity is comparable to infinity. yet you do no longer in easy terms get infinity. as a replace of removing each and all of the unusual numbers, you will get rid of each and all of the integers better than 10, and back, there's a limiteless quantity of those. Then, you would be left with 10 distinctive numbers after removing a limiteless quantity, so infinity minus infinity is likewise equivalent to 10 (or the different arbitrary extensive type). finally, what if we took away each and all of the effective integers better than 0 (i.e. all of them) Then we are left with 0 numbers, so infinity minus infinity is likewise equivalent to 0. that's what it ability as quickly as we are saying infinity is a theory, no longer a particular extensive type. Operations with infinity, like subtraction, are purely no longer defined in known math. that is like dividing by ability of 0; you in easy terms won't be able to do it in any significant way.

The value would still be infinity.
The thing is infinity isn't really a number, it's a concept. Infinity is the idea that things can continue without end.
Hope this makes sense.

you're kidding right? since when does x-2 =0 give you anything other than x=2??? you seem to have arbitrarily changed the equation to suit your purpose.
either way infinity is a concept not a number you can define. infinity - 1 is still infinity

Sorry, dividing by zero doesn't produce a numerical result called infinity. Dividing by zero is undefined.
When I divide, say, 12 by zero, I'm asking how many zeroes I have to add to make 12. The answer can't be some "number called infinity," because even if infinity were a number, an infinite number of zeroes added together doesn't make 12... it just makes zero.
In other words, you can't get to "infinity = 1" the way you did. Sorry. :)

As they say in Fortran: NAN - Not A Number. Infinity is not a number. Your question is invalid.
