The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the function \( f(x, y) \) defined as: \[ f(x, y) = \frac{1}{(x+1)!} + \frac{1}{(x+2)!} + \frac{1}{(x+3)!} + \ldots + \frac{1}{(x+y)!} \] ### Step 1: Rewrite the Function We can express the function in summation notation: \[ f(x, y) = \sum_{i=1}^{y} \frac{1}{(x+i)!} \] ### Step 2: Analyze the Terms Each term in the summation decreases rapidly as \( i \) increases because factorials grow very fast. Thus, we can analyze the behavior of the function as \( y \) increases. ### Step 3: Find an Upper Bound To find an upper bound for \( f(x, y) \), we can observe that: \[ \frac{1}{(x+i)!} < \frac{1}{(x+1)!} \quad \text{for all } i \geq 1 \] This means that: \[ f(x, y) < \sum_{i=1}^{y} \frac{1}{(x+1)!} = \frac{y}{(x+1)!} \] ### Step 4: Find a Lower Bound For a lower bound, we can consider the last term in the summation: \[ f(x, y) > \frac{1}{(x+y)!} \] ### Step 5: Establish Limits As \( y \to \infty \), we can analyze the behavior of \( f(x, y) \): \[ f(x, y) \approx \frac{1}{(x+1)!} + \frac{1}{(x+2)!} + \ldots \] This series converges and can be approximated by the exponential series: \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n!} = e \] ### Step 6: Evaluate Specific Cases To evaluate \( f(2, 2) \): \[ f(2, 2) = \frac{1}{3!} + \frac{1}{4!} = \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{24} = \frac{4}{24} + \frac{1}{24} = \frac{5}{24} \] ### Conclusion Based on the analysis, we can conclude that: - \( f(x, y) \) is bounded above by \( \frac{y}{(x+1)!} \) - \( f(x, y) \) is bounded below by \( \frac{1}{(x+y)!} \)

To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the function \( f(x, y) \) defined as: \[ f(x, y) = \frac{1}{(x+1)!} + \frac{1}{(x+2)!} + \frac{1}{(x+3)!} + \ldots + \frac{1}{(x+y)!} \] ### Step 1: Rewrite the Function We can express the function in summation notation: ...
