Homework Statement
prove that if k>1 then kn→∞ an n→∞
there is a hint given. (hint:let k=1+t where t>0 and use the fact that (1+t)n>1+nt)
(ii) prove that if 0<k<1 then kn→0 as n→∞
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
if k>1
then kn+1-kn=kn(k-1)
(ii) 1/k>1
then1/kn→∞
Homework Statement
Give an example of a sequence {an}, satisfying the following:
{an} is monotonic
0<an<1 for all n and no two terms are the same
lim(n→∞) an = 1/2
Homework Equations
what is monotonic
The Attempt at a Solution
1/(2√n)
n/(2n-1)
1/2^n
just been trying...
i can prove it graphically but i don't know the deffinitions and this is not for assingnment, once someone shows me how its done then i can start my assignments, i need the basics first
Explain why this is no good as a definition of continuity at a point a (either by giving an example of a continuous function that does not satisfy the definition or a discontinuous one that does):
Given ε > 0 there exists a \delta > 0 such that |x – a| < \epsilon \Rightarrow |f(x) – f(a)| <...
if lim(n→∞)an=0 then prove lim(n→∞)1/an=0
how do i do this, i know how to proove it geometrically, but how do you write the proof using ε
and \delta
Give a counter example to show that the converse is false.
