Homework Statement
Show that if:
[tex]lim_{k\to\infty}b_k\to+\infty[/tex],
[tex]\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k[/tex] converges and,
[tex]\sum_{k=1}^\infty a_k b_k[/tex] converges, then
[tex]lim_{m\to\infty} b_m \sum_{k=m}^\infty a_k = 0[/tex]
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I only have an idea why this is true--[tex]\sum a_k[/tex] converges, so the tails become small, and [tex]\sum a_k b_k[/tex] converges, so [tex]a_k[/tex] shrinking dominates [tex]b_k[/tex] blowing up. I know that [tex]|b_k| < \epsilon / |a_k|[/tex] for any epsilon and large k, and I know that [tex]\left| \sum_{m=k}^\infty a_m \right| < \epsilon[/tex] for large k, but I can't find the way to combine these two statements.
