    Math 267: Problem Set #4 1. (c) Let e > 0. Choose N > 527! +4. If n > 4, we have |e +5) — (n?- 3-2) 1 3n—2 +5 n= 3n—2 an +7 Bn 47 an—2 (The denominator of the last fraction is positive when n > 1(3 + VI7) Moreover, when n > 4, we have 12 =3n—-2 3.5615 +++.) 3n+7 <3n+2n=5n, ~38n—2> n?—3.5n, and so. nd an +7 5n 5 man 2 || —Sn—2 ~ wn 2 inn 35 Note that our choice of N ensures that N > 4. Thus, ifn > N, we have nad < 5 < 5 in? —3n—2 +05 2. A soquence (aq) has a limit if there is an L € R such that lima, = L, Thus, the atement “(a,,) has a limit” means that: = BLE R,Ve > 0,3N €N:¥n>N,|t,—L| 0,VN EN,3n > N: jay —D] De. To check that () is true when rq must verify the truth of the statement, (*) Je >0,VN EN In >D ‘We will consider two cases. + (-1)", we let L be any fixed real number. We + Cay-t)6 Case 1: L <1.

(a) One possible example of such a pair of sequences is In-2 1 ~ = mot (b) Since (a,) is increasing and bounded above, we know that A lim ay = A. Next, we will show that lim by = A. a, sup(a,) exists and Let ¢ > 0. Since lim a, A, there exists an N € N such that yn >N, lay Al N, when n > N, we have both Jan Al N, we have An-e 0. Since lim a, = L, there exists an N € N such that Vn > N, lay — 1) 1, we have also n-+k > But ifn > Hence, lanee — Ll
