Concept explainers
Looking ahead to sequences A sequence is an infinite, ordered list of numbers that is often defined by a function. For example, the sequence {2,4,6, 8, … } is specified by the function f(n) = 2n, where n = 1, 2, 3, …. The limit of such a sequence is

- Let R be the set of all infinite sequences of real numbers, with the operations u+v=(u1,u2,u3,......)+(v1,v2,v3,......)=(u1+v1,u2+v2,u3+v3,.....) and cu=c(u1,u2,u3,......)=(cu1,cu2,cu3,......). Determine whether R is a vector space. If it is, verify each vector space axiom; if it is not, state all vector space axioms that fail.arrow_forwardThe Fibonacci sequence fn=1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,... is defined recursively by f1=1,f2=1,fn+2=fn+1+fn for n=1,2,3,... a. Prove f1+f2+...+fn=fn+21 for all positive integers n. b. Use complete induction to prove that fn2n for all positive integers n. c. Use complete induction to prove that fn is given by the explicit formula fn=(1+5)n(15)n2n5 (This equation is known as Binet's formula, named after the 19th-century French mathematician Jacques Binet.)arrow_forwardsequence of decreasing sets. = Lim MAN PLAND.
