Homework Statement


The sequence is [itex]a_n = \frac{n^P}{e^n}[/itex]


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


If I did L'Hopital's rule P times, would the final product look like:

[itex]P!\times lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} = \frac{1}{e^n}[/itex] ?

I don't see why it wouldn't
 
I just wasn't sure if I had wrote it properly. Thank you.
