I think I understood the question.  It sounds like a numerical methods
homework problem.  Basically you have f(x0), f(x1), etc. and you want
to extrapolate to x=infinity.  Hint: think of a0=1/x0, a1=1/x1, etc.
so your initial data is f(1/a0), f(1/a1), etc. and it should be pretty
obvious what to do next.
