Homework Statement
I'm referring to the question and solution for part (b) in the attached TheProblemAndSolution.jpg file.
Homework Equations
Definition of limit.
The Attempt at a Solution
Should the equation with the two things in brackets have absolute value bars instead of brackets?
Also, according to this Wikipedia link ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_sequence#Formal_Definition ), N should be a natural number and ϵ should be a real number but the solution in my book gives N as a function of ϵ, which means that it could be the case that N is also real and non-natural (such as an irrational number for example). Is there a contradiction here, or is there something I'm missing?
Any input would be GREATLY appreciated!
