Convergence and limits
Not what you're looking for?
Show that the following sequences are not convergent
i) (2^n)
ii) (((-1)^(n))n^2))
that is negative 1 to the n times n squared
Show that if X(sub n) is greater than or equal to zero for all n element N and lim(X(sub n))=0 then the lim(sqrtX(sub n))=0

Problem #1
(a) 2^n is convergent
For any positive number N, we can find the integer n > (log_2 N), then 2^n > 2^(log_2 N) = N.
Therefore, 2^n is convergent.
(b) (-1)^n * ...
