- limit of the sequence lim h→∞ (1+2/h)^harrow_forwardtrue or false questions . but please explain why. important 1- the sequence (n^n/n!)_{n∈N} is increasing without an upper bound. 2-if |a|<|b| , then a<b 3-if y=f(x) is polynomial, then the limits _{x->-∞} 1/f(x) and lim_{x->∞} 1/f(x) both exist 4- if lim_{x->a} f(x)=∞ and y=g(x) is defined and bounded below on an interval containing a , then lim_{x->a} f(x)+g(x)=∞ 5- if 0≤a≤1/e , then the equation xe^-x has a nonnegative solution. 6-suppose that a function y=f(x) is continuous on I=[a,b] and if the set f(I)=[f(a),f(b)], then y=f(x) is strictly increasing.arrow_forwardlim n->infinity(n*sin(π/n)) how do you find the limit of this sequence using this limit law: limx->0 (sin(x))/x = 1arrow_forward
- Limits of sequences and functionsarrow_forwardMax sine sequence Let an = max {sin 1, sin 2, . . ., sin n}, forn = 1, 2, 3, . . ., where max {. . .} denotes the maximum elementof the set. Does 5an6 converge? If so, make a conjectureabout the limit.arrow_forwardRepeated square roots Consider the sequence defined byan + 1 = √(2 + an) , a0 = √2, for n = 0, 1, 2, 3, ⋅ ⋅ ⋅.a. Evaluate the first four terms of the sequence {an}. State theexact values first, and then the approximate values.b. Show that the sequence is increasing and bounded.c. Assuming the limit exists, determine the limit exactly.arrow_forward
- (ln3n)/(ln9n) Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, find the limit.arrow_forwardLimits at Infinity and Infinite Limits Examine the graph, and, using limit notation, enumerate all the one-sided and two-sided limits that are either +∞ or −∞arrow_forwardOne of the most important definitions in mathematics (calculus in particular) is that of the limit of a sequence. Consider the infinite sequence:1,1/2,1/3,1/4,.... Such a sequence can be represented as follows: an=1/n , n ∈ N Note that the elements of the sequence get arbitrarily close to 0 as n→∞. We call such a point the limit of the sequence. The formal definition for “L is the limit of a sequence an” is as follows: ∀∈ > 0, ∃N ∈ N, ∀ n ∈ N, n > N=⇒ |an−L| < ∈Negate this proposition to obtain the definition of “L is NOT the limit of a sequence an.”arrow_forward
- limit as n approaches infinity of an, if you know that the sequence (an) satisfies the equation an+1=squareroot of an and an>0 for all n indexesarrow_forwardproof that an = 2^n/n! , for n≥ 1 is a dcreasing sequence. and the limit for it =0arrow_forwardlim n->infinity (Un) = L how do i prove that this is only the case if lim n-> infinity ('U^2' n) = L^2. Using the definiton for a limit ie using epsilonarrow_forward
