- Real Analysis Suppose {an} is a bounded sequence of Real numbers. If Lim(Supan)=M as n approaches infinity prove that for every Epsilon>0, we have an<M+Epsilon for all but a finite number of values of n. I am told that this is the ratio test using Limit Supremum. I don't understand this statement. If M is the Lim of the Supremum, then how can some element of an be between M and M+Epsilon? Isn't the Supremum the Greatest Lower Bound? Meaning that there are no elements above the Supremum?arrow_forwardFinding infinite limits Analyze the following limitsarrow_forwardUsing the definition of limit (so, without using Arithmetic of Limits), show that i. limn→∞ (3 + 4n) / 3n = 4/3 ii. limn→∞ 3n / (2n + 3) = 3/2arrow_forward
- (INFINITE SEQUENCE) Determine the convergence or divergence of the following sequences. If it converges give it its limit.arrow_forwardHomework - Sequence and limits 1) Using the definition of limit, show that limn→∞ 1 / n5 = 0 and that limn→∞ 1 / n1/5 = 0. 2) Using the definition of limit (so, without using Arithmetic of Limits), show that a) limn→∞ (4 + n) / 2n = 1/2 b) limn→∞ 2/n + 3/(n+1) = 0 3) Suppose that (sn) and (tn) are sequences so that sn = tn except for finitely many values of n. Using the definition of limit, explain why if limn → ∞ sn = s, then also limn → ∞ tn = s. 4) Suppose real sequences (sn) and (tn) are bounded. (That is, that their ranges are bounded sets.) a) Show the sequence given by (sn + tn) is bounded. b) For any real number α, show that the sequence (α⋅sn) is bounded. 5) a) For a convergent real sequence sn and a real number a, show that if sn ≥ a for all but finitely many values of n, then limn→∞ sn ≥ a. b) For each value of a ∈ ℝ, give an example of a convergent sequence sn with sn > a for all n, but where limn→∞ sn = a. Any help would appreciate , thanks.arrow_forwardLimits of sequences Determine the limits of the following sequences.a. an = (3n3)/(n3 + 1) b. bn = ((n + 5)/(n))n c. cn = n1/narrow_forward
